Liberty4life Posted March 28, 2012 Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 i would like to see for very long time already the unadept button, which would ofc remove you from being adept of xxxxx person, how currently things work are that once ya become somebodys adept, ya always must be adept of that person or of some other, but ya cant unadept, only way not to be adept of anybody is if ya reged without referrer id and by now pickin adepthood during whole game, i mean why would i have to be somebodys adept if i dont want to, simple as that Watcher 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pipstickz Posted March 28, 2012 Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 What's the difference between being nobody's adept and being a random inactive account's adept? Some words under your name. Tarquinus 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nadrolski Posted March 29, 2012 Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 you lose % (for example, 30%) of your Loyalty if you choose to be an adept of nobody? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kamisha Posted March 29, 2012 Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 Nobody is going to go for the penalty nadrolski because protector and adept are very different things. A adept is supposed to be nothing more than a mentor program with some additional benefits where protectors are actually supposed to support there worshipers. I think a penalty of any kind would be a bad idea. If you choose to be an adept of nobody and you lose % loyalty you would also need to apply it to changing who you are an adept of since that is the same degree of betrayal.

Grido Posted March 29, 2012 Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 For reasons I don't really want to go into (cos I'm lazy atm), mechanically speaking, you technically are already your own adept. Might muck things up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Zl-eye-f)-nea Posted March 30, 2012 Report Share Posted March 30, 2012 Once you have been mentored by someone you can't just 'unmentor' yourself. So I don't see why you should be able to unadept yourself at all. Z Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire Starter Posted March 30, 2012 Report Share Posted March 30, 2012 (edited) Good point Z. And thinking over this I am beginning to widen the parameters: Assume we have an "Unadept" button. We click it. Since this is an agreement between two persons the protector receives a short message with interactive options:[list] [*]yes [*]no, request meeting/ send PM [/list] Without answering to any of those, the adept can't really change or unadept. In this way the protector can express how he feels about the adept. If they have discussed this already and both agree, then the Yes option is the easiest way. A decision is made only after both clear the issue. Keep in mind I am just thinking over this with the assumption there is such button. Which there isn't right now.

Root Admin Chewett Posted March 30, 2012 Root Admin Report Share Posted March 30, 2012 So then what you do is switch to a friend, and then ask to leave them if your adeptor doesnt agree Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire Starter Posted March 30, 2012 Report Share Posted March 30, 2012 *facepalms* I thought this was in the post. Apparently it isn't. It would apply in any option - unadepting or switching adepts. The next issues coming from this I believe will be going straight to the council. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fire Starter Posted March 30, 2012 Report Share Posted March 30, 2012 I saw this coming, but then I asked myself - is a protector really good one, if can't answer a simple question for 3 weeks straight? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Z [/quote] oke then z, it should have been made that nobody can change his master/mentor at all, atm everyone is switchin them like socks, but unadeptin aint option? funny as for rest... wut prot has to do with this... bein adept of someone dusent mean that someone is prot or that he even aims at prot status Watcher 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mallos Posted March 30, 2012 Report Share Posted March 30, 2012 (edited) I remember protectors saying they are losing adepts due to inactivity, wasn't it that if you go 5 days inactive you are no longer an adept of someone? Correct me if I'm wrong, but if you really didn't want to be an adept of someone, do that. Edited March 30, 2012 by Falronn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dst Posted March 30, 2012 Report Share Posted March 30, 2012 If you are inactive for 5 days, you'll not count in the pool of adepts for that specific mp6. You are still an adept but without actually helping the mp6. Seigheart 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maebius Posted March 30, 2012 Report Share Posted March 30, 2012 [quote name='Falronn' timestamp='1333113463' post='107863'] I remember protectors saying they are losing adepts due to inactivity, wasn't it that if you go 5 days inactive you are no longer an adept of someone? Correct me if I'm wrong, but if you really didn't want to be an adept of someone, do that. [/quote] Actually, the person stays your Adept, but is not counted in terms of "activity". So while I may, for example, have 36 Adepts, only 31 of them are active. If too many fall asleep, their names will still show as "adept of Maebius" when you look at themm, but not be valid for their Protector staying MP6.
