The sun, because
I am not sure whom that was to, but I made another connection, which is probably incorrect. A quote from the source: [quote]ELEMENTS: The four basic elements to many pagans are earth, water, air (wind or spirit) and fire. Many consider the first two passive and feminine - and the last two active and masculine. In Wiccan or Native American rituals, the "quartered circle" (also the Medicine Wheel) represents a "sacred space" or the sacred earth. The four lines may represent the spirits of the four primary directions or the spirits of the earth, water, wind and fire. (This set of elements differs from those used in alchemy.)[/quote]

The sun, because
[quote]When this gate closes, the "minus" rebalances to "plus" the infinite void turns into infinite energy. (Don't argue about notion of infinity, in this case i refer to highest source of something, the SUN is the source)[/quote] So that is what you meant with the post about infinite... Luke, perhaps the fourth gate is not necessarily 'good' or 'bad' but neutral. Aside from all that, I am not going to pretend that I know ANYTHING of what you guys are talking about, so. I wing it. When I think of gates, I happen to think of a pentagram. However, a pentagram in this case has FIVE points to it, this relating to some religious aspect, I surmise. However, in the middle of that pentagram is a 'point' of sorts, the complete middle which becomes another geometric shape of which has five sides. A pentagram is ALWAYS covered by a circle, which, after I did some digging stands for [b]infinite, the sun, female power, and wholeness.[/b] In Christianity, the seven points relate to the five senses. However... in China, it is called Wu Xing, and each of the five points stand for five different phases/elements. I don't know if this has any -relevant- correlation, but, I hope it does. If not, I apologize.

"Creatures require MP level to advance!"
I like the announcement, like Chewy Said. In the back of my mind, I was always thinking that perhaps this would be a solution, and voila! It is implemented. As for the mp6 thing and above... MP6 are normally in alliances, anyway, so maxing their creatures would be easy. However, I do not agree with people going all happy dandy and gathering adepts JUST because they want to max their creatures. I stand by those who actually become mp6 to help people, rather than for selfish reasons. Other than that, Mur said RARE creatures. Probably like Darks, Morphs, etc. Which, is probably to also help them from becoming a monopoly?

MP3 using GGG?
Xrieg, like I said before, I'm not making it an issue, I am displaying a personal concern about the newbies only learning the RDFA style. As I had also said before, I don't really care that they use it. But because nearly ALL of them are using it, they are nto really learning game mechanics, as stated by myself and others, which leads to the possible things: 1. Frustration in newer players 2. Decreasing Morality in newer players And possible other happenings which I cannot think of at the moment. The problems with numbers 1&2 is the fact that their frustration from not knowing the mechanics very well will possibly make them want to leave the game, not advance into MP5, or whatever.

MP3 using GGG?
I forgot that wins/victories for MP3 are the same... so they're pretty much harvesting wins without wanting losses.. A lot of the newbies complain about getting losses, too when a rit is broken or the person attacks without non damage.

MP3 using GGG?
I'm not trying to make it an issue, I'm just displaying a concern because someone actually DID think that RDF was part of the rules. Or, from how they stated it, it made me think that they had legitimately thought that non damage was part of the rules. But as for the experience thing, It might have been old experience gained and they only needed wins... I don't know. I cannot remember.
-
MP3 using GGG?
[quote]Experience gained is directly proportional to they amount of ve lost, so with non-damage rituals no xp is gained.[/quote] I only remember that while doing non damage you receive some sort of experience. It must have been creature experience, then. I only did this for a few hours when BigC was around, but within that I was able to get quite a bit of experience for my creatures. I understand that these are extremist views, but, the extreme can happen.

MP3 using GGG?
GGG stands for Golden Globe Gazebo. I was always told/taught that the GGG is basically using non damage rituals. What it does, is it gives wins for players creatures and experience for the player. Now, this is out of my experience. My thought process, was basically the players would only learn the RDFH style of fighting, getting strong creatures, while not really knowing much about any other types of fighting. The creatures become strong, but yet, the player does not necessarily become educated. As I said before, I don't care about GGG or whatever happened with it. However, I think of it as an asset to mp5 players. Another thing that I worry about is that the newbies will think that RDFH is an actual requirement of the park when it isn't. I mean... as I see it, younger players would get so hooked up on the new style of fighting that they won't necessarily get the wins and losses that they need to move up. And without new players to move up the ranks, then, again, as I see it, the newbies will stay at mp3 and not bother to brave the upper levels. That is my concern.

I'm not being a busy body. Maybe you should stop attacking people for their concerns because you're so obviously elite.

MP3 using GGG?
So? Can I not be involved in the community as much as I can be despite the fact that I don't fight?

MP3 using GGG?
I have a slightly growing concern about the new coming MP3. For the past few weeks, I have been sitting in the park and I have watched MP3-- Nearly all of them-- request to use non damage rit. No one has really objected to Mp3 using non damage. I had no care about it until it was mistaken that Non Damage was part of the rules for the park. I don't know where you guys stand, but, looking at it, I kind of dislike it because it's like making a new precedent for the "February" case. I don't care if MP5 do it, because they know the fighting mechanics. As to loosely quote Nadrolski: The MP3 will turn into mindless graasans. Big, but without brains.

I wonder if the vomitting is due to something a bit more... maternal.. I mean, if Grido managed to woo the lovely Dst, that is. ..

I became an alt....
[size="5"][b]THIS IS STRICTLY OPINION AND NOT TO BE TAKEN ABSOLUTELY SERIOUSLY.[/b][/size] You do realize that whining about being an alt is pretty... for lack of a better term, silly, right? You do realize that nothing will change your status no matter what you do. Hopefully, you realize that there is more to this game than simply fighting and therefore arguing against it is going to give others bad impressions of you. Displaying ways of which people could 'bypass' the game is quite stupid. While you may not have meant it as a threat, I personally, see these as talks of how to get past the restrictions as a free for all for whomever would want to actually deliberately abuse the game on a mass scale. So, seriously. Being an alt is nothing bad unless you actually do something to warrant being arrested for it and therefore called a nasty, greedy little crook. Deal with it, really.

Why the sun?
I'm pretty much not going to bother reading all of the responses. 1. The sun is a source of energy. -This leads to heat. -heat in turn [in game mechanics] is used to supply others with energy. [in an argument against this, some creatures can survive without sunlight, such as in the abyssal plains and survive on sulfur spewed from volcanic vents.] 2. The source is a symbolic meaning -It means life. Opinion: The sun is a point of gravitation. It is a powerful thing, and large enough to support billions of forms of life. Now, Sotis stands for: Solders of the INNER sun. Not THE SUN. Now, what exactly is the inner point of the sun? If we went into 'detail' that would be the planetary core-- but in game terms, it must mean something more, and therefore, is what gives it the status that Sotis has.

As of late [namely since I went into Stat Damage], I've been seeing the following notifications: Notifications [heat increased] Heat increased by -2 because you are on unfamiliar territory. [i][color="#FF0000"][hostile energy] You lost 116 vitality. This is territory damage, you are on unfamiliar territory.[/color][/i] Another notification stated something about Bad Luck and losing vitality or AP. I cannot remember. Is this a bug, or just a normal feature?

I do not think I will be participating in this because I will be taking messages for Mur. If anyone needs to message me, [b]DO SO USING THE FORUMS. I will be ignoring all PMs sent to me in game regarding anything for Mur. [/b]

Chewett is not the only one who posts 'flaws' out in public. I am fairly sure that everyone has faced public shame and has had their humiliation because of it. I certainly see nothing special in this case.

Would you like to help?
For my sponsorship I can do the following: Sponsor a WP OR Sponsor some Silver [Silver will take a couple days. I will have to sell something to get it.] I can only sponsor once. You can only choose one or the other. Which shall it be? If you do not respond to this in a timely manner, consider my offer null and void.

I will have to speak with Mur before mentioning any sponsorship on my part.
