I have been trying to delete several of my inbox messages so that I can see my old messages from before but it seems to not delete after clicking delete selected messages button.

I have the same problem but I noticed you can delete messages one by one.

Just open the message and delete it from there.

[Honor crippled while joining an alliance]

While joining an alliance (Caretakers) I lost 2500 honor.

I didn't find any announcement mentioning this, is it supposed to work this way?

Thank you.

[[Quest] Time to take a bath?]

Summer is coming, the sun is up in the sky and so is morale...

For this quest you have to create a bathing suit for one of your creatures. Not draw, mind you, create.

You can use whatever material and technique you wish, the more it is related to the creature you picked the better.

One piece, two pieces... Three? Your call. Don't worry, you don't have to wear it, although... ????

 

Like all creative quests, the picture you take should include a visible MD sign and your name.

Please send your submissions to me and Fyrd Argentus via forum PM, the deadline is June 20, 19 server time.

On that evening we'll have a nice parade and the best suit will be chosen (public vote + 'passion for fashion' jury).

 

The rewards depend on the number of submissions.

Base reward (less than 5 submissions): 10 gold coins for the 1st place, 30 silver note for the 2nd place, 10 silver note for the 3rd place.

5 or more submissions: Additional prizes for all, including a WP for the 1st place.

[How do I find info about creatures I do not own?]

Info about recruitable creatures can be found at their recruitment facilities.

As for unique / rare creatures, most informations are hidden from the public. However they might be obtained by asking someone who owns said creatures.

Spoiler

 

A key difference between MD and many other games is the attitude towards so called "spoilers".

Most of the games have a "pay-to-win" approach, they provide you the complete catalogue because you can buy everything since the very beginning.

In MD you don't buy your way to the top, you earn most of the stuff, informations included.

 

 

[The Caretakers Shovel]

I'd gladly take this opportunity, but I can't decide...

I have both Fang Archbane and Miq in my list, but who should be killed first?

I've been stuck in this dilemma for some time, when... Idea!

Why not let the dice decide?

[Pyre for our fallen creatures]

I fail to see the point here.

You don't want to sacrifice it, you don't want to give it away, you can't keep it...

Besides keeping it (unless it's matter of space), you can immortalize it in a bestiary, totemize it...

Not at level 3.

@Fang Archbane: It's intended to work that way.

[Loyalty reduction after joining an alliance with nominated leader]

I suggest that you not longer lose loyalty points for joining an alliance with a nominated leader.

I might be wrong, but I think that measure was intended to make alliance takeover less easy.

[A more painful death]

: Crex came back into the realm of the living!

: Else came back into the realm of the living!

: Fang Archbane came back into the realm of the living!

 

And now we have some fresh data to ponder on: Else and Fang revived by themselves (no external aid that I'm aware of) in 5 days.

 

I think it's fine for a player who experienced death for the first time. You should be able to recover quickly (and 5 days is quickly, in MD terms, not even a holiday).

I think it's trivial if that can be achieved multiple times.

[New Treasuries open for groups (official and unoffical)]

What land you represent in your request: Necrovion
Amount of Storage wanted (items): 66
Amount of Storage wanted (creatures): 6
How much you would pay for this: I'd rather pay a one time fee in top spender ticket(s), otherwise we can arrange a weekly or monthly deal.
Location you would put your treasury: 1_2x-3_2, Within the Accursed Growth, "a damp cocoon" clicky.
 

[MB Land Cleanser Bug]

I can confirm this happened when I tried to attack Lashtal while idle before....

You did what???? ????

[A more painful death]

Thank you MaGo, you put in better words what I was about to write and saved all of us time.

As for the topic:

Perhaps I wouldn't touch death itself. The only change I'd make is: once you used a revival method, said method is no longer available to you for a period of time.

[Proclamation regarding death of Else]

Moreover, and out of character:

Perhaps you don't know, but sometimes there are complaints because someone is sneaking into Necrovion very often, without paying, just because he/she lives in a different timezone.

This is unfair to all those who pay their tiny price for a regular visit.

This might be seen as me sleeping on duty (it happens), me closing an eye (true only for mp3, A25 or quest-makers who contacted me in advance), or... me doing favoritism. Which I hate.

So what to do against regular trespassers who sneak in while I sleep?

Luckily, there are friends. And some of them have killing tools, hurray!

[Proclamation regarding death of Else]

It's not prohibited to enter Necrovion. But there's a big warning at the entrance, stating you do it at your own risk. And if you do so repeatedly, the risk gets bigger.

As Death Patrol, I can use my tools only within Necrovion borders.

Many others can kill at will, or for a price. I can use such services as I wish, just like everyone else.

Don't you agree?

[Walking on friendly territory does not generate heat anymore]

Now it works for me as well.

Super fast, thank you.

Will we see who really was responsible for this?

Do you mean... Miq could be the one? ????????????????????

Otherwise we're a bit off-topic since this thread was about Miq's adventures in Necrovion.

[Do private messages get canceled once they are too old?]

Thanks for the clarification, it makes sense.

Messages are deleted after a year according to the code unless they are unread or marked as important.

How do I mark them as important?

[Do private messages get canceled once they are too old?]

Thank you Kaya, I was aware of their decay.

"You cannot send a message back because the PM is too old. Send a new PM if you wish to reply."

Still, I can read the PM, I have a couple that are 11 months 4 weeks old.

I was wondering when they disappear from the inbox.

 

[Do private messages get canceled once they are too old?]

Today I realized I lost some of the older private messages - both sent and received.

I'm pretty sure I didn't canceled them on purpose (I mean in-game PMs, not the forum ones).

I don't think I have exceeded the limit because I used to have more.

 

Do private messages get canceled once they are too old?

If so, when do they become "too old"?

I've added an audio-only recording of my song.

This is brilliant!

Also, hilarious you got attacked while performing, you should consider something like "don't shoot on the pianist"... Seriously though, should you upload the video somewhere please let me know ????
