As long as you feel the need to say something you care, otherwise you would just turn around and smile. I still care about MD, myself in it and most of the people who are a part of this "community". And even if I did say what I said in my previous post I´m always in favor of friction. Friction is needed to evolve and I know there are many different ways of friction. I just do prefer the constructive over the destructive one. I would like to see 100 people active in MD everyday. The presence of 100 would change so much. But the reality looks different and I observe that we are getting less and less. Destructive friction is one of the causes. So I try it again. Please lets go back to the topic if there is anything needed to express. Thank you

Is there more than a handful of topics which are not developing into a flame war? As I realised that MD is more then a "game" I always thought in a constructive way but since some months I get the feeling that the other side of the coins is nearly getting the upper position. Please lets return to the original topic ... Thank you.

Far example ... FB is available in many many countries an there you have your first medium. Since my active Internet time (started 2001 with MMORPG Dark Age Of Camelot) is saw right from the beginning this cyber bullying happening mostly in forums and game chats. It´s constantly growing as I see it today 12 years later and can only be lowered again with awareness. For me this was always and will always be one of the dark sides of the Internet. When people hide behind the anonymity of the Internet sitting in their homes playing the strong character ( in forums - FB is not ) and if you meet them face to face suddenly everything is gone and the facade explodes right in front of you. I don´t know if you know the show, which is some years old "bully beatdown" (youtube has some videos), that´s one example for what I mean. I don´t think the educational effect isn´t that great here but it shows how "overconfident" some are and those few are growing. India is a very good example for this. There is a very fast growing army of wannabe heroes running around with no strength at all thank to the "glorious" movie industry. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CxW8TLtUMfM

All the best for you and not only today!

There would be so much more to write from my side, why we need more of this kind as the opposite, but I try it this time with a picture. Maybe there is something in it, lets see. [sharedmedia=gallery:images:2031]

Well if there is a side effect like this then I don´t care at all. Do what suits your "work" best.

A) is the best choice from my point of view.

What I like about MUR? He created what I dreamed of. He had the guts to do something nobody else would do, because it´s absolute foolish to invest a lot of energy and time into something without getting profit out of it. The majority of people, the normality is so sure about this that they forget to life. He did and is doing what his intuition tells him. He is straight forward and mostly with heart, which I like. He is who he is, and as long as you get to know him a bit you will find something astonishing in that.

Do we have a HC crisis? Or do we have a MD crisis?

Yes I noticed in the morning ...

EARA Alles gute zum Geburtstag Eara, möge Alles in Erfüllung gehen was du dir bewusst wünschst. MAGISTRA And I wish you Magistra a happy birthday too, even if I have no idea what "happy" means for others. All the best possible for you on your journey through life.

I played Lineage II 4 1/2 years right from the beta with some breaks in between and so far this is my longest gaming experience. MD comes right after it now ;).

I would only repeat my self with different words ... so here is a not so old reply to one of your topics DD in which I forwarded my thoughts to you and it´s fitting here again. My aim will always be to "help" someone to free himself from "himself". Always keep in mind that everyone needs to find his/her answers to his/her own questions in his/her own time. So please move one or two steps back again and look at it again. We mostly learn from the "mistakes" we do. http://magicduel.invisionzone.com/topic/13925-a-confession/ Posted 30 March 2013 - 04:48 PM DD I´d like to give my 2 cents too. If anyone or anything can attack you or hurt you or lead you to something you don´t want - try the following. ALWAYS ask yourself WHY you´re in this position and do not think one single second of others or the situation itself which "caused" it. I experienced that all situations which I was judging I was a big part of and I had definitely something to do with it - it was always me who was able to change! And then the understanding grew that I will never be able to change anyone else and that I do not even want to change anyone except myself. And this is the work you have to do and you will be able to do - work only on yourself - and this is not selfish - it´s the opposite, even if people try to tell you that you only care for yourself ... All analysis afterwards will always lead to the fact that YOU can change YOUR part in a situation and NOTHING else. Once you are able to life this with consciousness you will start growing faster and things will move faster. That´s all for the start - take it or leave it - it´s up to you what YOU do with it. All the best on YOUR way. And never forget it´s YOUR way and noone else should judge you for what or who you are. And at the same time accept if people have problems with your way of being and do never judge them or what they do.

The best for me so far ... would love to see it ingame.

Happy birthday from me too ... all the best all the time.

Happy birthday Kets and all the best on your way ...

I would like to say that I miss Eon but I doubt that many even talked to him deep enough to use the term "I knew him". Eon never ever talked when I was around and never ever answered a question I had. From my point of view I cannot know someone whom I never talked too and miss someone I know nothing about would be not true at all. So I do not miss Eon.

So true if one looks into his/her own life ... but we all know how strong ignorance and misunderstanding is in every single one of us. So lets remember everyday! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DhfYnWQBJVs Lyrics: All That We Have When will this end Cast into a well of uncertainty Contemplating all that dwells within you When will this end It's coming to the surface now Stare down the throat of consequences A lesson learned in life Cast off the burdens That plague your mind No one can understand Behind the silence within you Something has got to give Forgiveness is all we have, Wounds will heal as time goes on Nothing else will give you a peace of mind Years spent holding onto anger and hatred The feeling that things will never change It eats you up inside, Thinking that no one could ever understand, all the pain that you hide Your burdens serve to hold you down Forgiveness is all we have, Are you willing to just let go? Nothing else will give you a peace of mind You can't blame yourself You can't hold on thinking that you're the only one You cannot hide, you cannot run from what's been said and done Forgiveness is all we have, Wounds will heal as time goes on Nothing else will give you a peace of mind Are you willing to just let go? Nothing else will give you a peace of mind Behind the silence, let all your anger go to find a peace of mind

You will be back not active as you should be but every time you will find some of the ones who miss you already. All the best for you and stay in touch. Thank you
