Curiose

If you believe the people to be useless and nothing more than paper, then you do NOT deserve to be King. You don't deserve anything of that sort.

If what Yrthillian and Pippy say are true, and you truly are an alt,I only have this to say: Why would you be so... greedy, a to claim something that is "yours," when, if you really are an alt, it is no more yours than a thief stealing a bit of chocolate from the store? If the real person wanted to take the role, and claim it, then it would not be half an issue as I see it now. You are not only stealing from the rest of the community, but from regular players as well who strive to make a difference in the land, and also from that actual player whose -real- right it is to claim his birthplace. It does not bode well with me, and I am sure for others they feel the same. I say this now: if by the grace of whatever God, you happen to be King: I will fight tooth and nail for the people and not for a bloody alt.

While my opinion on this matter may not be well educated on this issue, or with any meaning in this sense: I have to agree with Awii and Jester. You came in, expecting something to be handed to you... Have you ever bothered to educate yourself on what the people want? People seem happy with Jester, as I am. If people were not, then I am sure someone would have stepped forth to try and claim the throne. Demanding that you get the crown, as you speak, seems to me of only childish wants and nothing more than to carry on something long dead. resurrecting something, from the looks of it... How do you expect it to work again? Do you even know enough about MD? Do you know how to even act like a leader and treat people how they should be under the same respect that is considered fair, but reasonable? As you said before: The people do not know you. The people do not know what you are capable of. It seems strictly to me that you are drawing in things that happened in RP to draw your basis... while yes, RP is an important factor, to me, it turns me off to the thought of you gaining the crown. You want the crown because of something that happened in an RP, not because you duly deserve such a thing.

Happy Birthday MY wonderful wonderful fuzzy little Pample-Navel. : D May you no wrinkles to coming age.

Then I correct myself. If not to the LHO, to Shadow Seeker if he is still willing to help out.

Curi's Corner Update: Added "Cretin" 10/8/10 http://decrepitschaine.livejournal.com/6902.html *This story is particular in the sense that for those who do happen to read this, I would prefer that they [b]PM[/b] their responses/thoughts/questions/answers, etc to me. I am interested to see what people think of this particular piece, for I think it is one of the better pieces I have written, including the fact I find it interesting to see how people perceive what is happening throughout the story. Thank you for your input. Curiose.

Do enjoy. There's lots to do [even when it may not seem like it.] If you need help, have questions, or just want someone to talk to, feel free. Pretty much everyone is nice and helpful. : D

[quote]BTW Get a Job For PHONE CREDITS OR PAY PAL[/quote] @ Manda: Let me tell you something. Some of us have a job. Some of us get money. But some of us got screwed over by idiots and have to repair the mistakes those idiots made and are not entitled to such money and have their entire financial situation effed with. -I- can't get bank account. -I- can't get credits. On topic: I only recently started the free credits thing. I always voted, but it confused when it said to "Enter and Vote" when there is no specifics as to what I am voting for, which always made me paranoid as to: Did my vote go through? One thing that also bothered me about the vote links was that there would be links without any voting opportunity... Is that for other sites to advertise, or is it because they're sponsors? My two cents is to punish those who abused it, but until that is sorted out, keep free credit voting on lock down. I also like Z's idea.

With Mp6, a lot of them have things to do, than sit in the park. I personally, would not enjoy being restricted to an area playing babysitter and making sure the kiddies play nice. As for the community project thing, it was discussed to have the people choose who would be best to run the park and such like that. Shadow was contacted only for permission. But I do understand what you mean, Dst.

I spoke with Shadow about having a staff, but.. somehow the verdict on that came muddled and I cannot remember exactly what it was at this particular moment. Basically, if someone could come up with a good solution/staff idea for it, I think it could be implemented. I brought up the idea of using Mya's advanced strip spell idea to him with hopes that would work, but once more,my tired brain does not remember the exact verdict. I think it was turned down.

I agree on appropriate rewards, but rather rewards associated with that land or neutral rwards, such as gold/ silver instead of creatures. But that is just me.

This is basically for anyone to follow: If you encounter someone who is violating the rules: You either A. Tell them in public to follow the rules [or in PM] so as to have valid proof. B. If they continue to harrass/violate, then you tell an LHO with specifics and proof. C. Things will be taken from there by someone strong enough/politically adept enough to deal with the issue. That's about all I can think of at the moment. [[i]At the moment.[/i]]

Yes. you can send things to us as Wanderer has stated. I am more a messenger, collector, and advertiser of the group. I fill in as Host when needed. for your stories, I prefer you send them to my forum PM box so as to keep better control of yourstoris and not lose them. i suggest you take yourquestions to wanderer and kyphis. as for the late night hour, I may have to have it on a sepeateday. I will speak to Kyphis and Wanderer about it.

You used to be stuck in GG once you go through the maze. However, if you click one of the pyramids it will take you to the maze once more. I agree with all stated above. There is no point. It would be like giving away an A+ to the student in the beginning of the year without them really doing any hard work. The real reward should be the fact that they can figure out their way through the maze and make their way to GG. I don't think WP incentives will get more players through there. Sure, it would be nice to have a WP, but thing is: What is the lesson that they are learning? It is just like giving away spoilers to someone who asked.

I dislike comments like that as well. Things like that are UNNECESSARY and plain rude. The things you were spewing in the chat while Burns and myself were around should have been warning enough that it won't be tolerated, Harion. This is a community game, we get that. But when someone like you and others like that are completely disrupting the rules that have been in place, including INSULTING people for upholding the rules is making you look nothing more like a complete bigot. You believe in no censorship? Well, sorry, but MD believes in less hateful relations between people and upholding the "real world" laws. Freedom of speech does not abide by privately run forums/games. And even in the "real world" you can still get yourself in jail for saying certain things. Open your eyes. The world is not a fair place, and if you don't think MD is, then who cares as long as you keep your nasty little trap from insulting those who have a mind to be realistic? Thank you for showing us that there are people like you out there. But now your comments are no longer neccesary.

@ Kyphis: Yes, it could easily be done with a pop-up. I think it holds legitimacy in this circumstance, really. If a younger player gets upset for capped or for losing, in some cases, then they have no one to blame but their self. I think that with this exception, instead of just allowing allies and citizens fight, it will allow more strategic players to show their stuff.

I agree with Kamisha on this one. For people who have an ally or a land, it seems more fitting that they would fight for their 'home.' A lot of mp3s an mp4s [from my knowledge,] do not have such a thing. In my experience in starting with Torch the first time, the only torch I could really get to was the one in Winds Sanctuary. I am not sure if that is how a lot of other non-allied people do it, but I think it would add more equality to the board. With the issue of mp3s and 4s actually competing in the contest and being capped by mp5s, I think that if they really want to go for the gold, and test their skills, [and are not an alt], then they should be able to. Their brazenness will be their benefit or their downfall, depending on how they play their cards. If such a thing were to be implemented, I do think that there should be a disclaimer basically stating that for younger players who are wanting to test their skills, they need to know the risks involved and cannot hold anyone accountable for competing in the contest as well.
