Yeah I agree, that's Amaru. Serenwilde has Munsia. Its all about image and control, Magnoraga has the loudest, and most antagonistic members.

--- was completely off topic --- bawoogah.

Don't you be talkin' bout my momma! ... I mean... typos!

I was in a rush to get that out there. I needed to log off and I didn't want anyone to have any misconception about what I think, so I posted without any sort of proofreading.

Now leave me alone!

...Yeah that's great Roul, nice way to increase the fun for the other players. Top notch. Pip pip, cherios milk and cookies.

Anywho, on topic, I don't see the big deal. Sounds like a funky little ritual and I'm sad I missed it.

That is a horrible thing to do, and a horrible thing to brag about .. Why?

I.. am absolutely disgusted.

oh hmm. Boredom?

Hey, at least it found out how badly their pvp system was bugged.

edit: One of the GMs in charge of combat is a friend of mine. He thanked me. The head GM is the one who booted me. =/ IT WASN'T AS DIRTY AS IT SEEMS.

I have to say, bout the only reason I was drawn to Lusternia was the idea of 'evil forestals' If the Tainted Forest becomes un-tainted and then has a commune in it, I don't see how ANYONE can say that the new forest would not be anti-taint. To say forestals always have to be against the evil people in the world, also will just pull me that much closer to imperian where people can work on Ithaqua.

At the same time, I don't see anything wrong with the event, but I do see something wrong with players not wanting a glomdoring to exist. To me, a player saying they don't want glomdoring to exist is a player who says they don't want a good balanced game to exist.

Then you are very narrow minded.

Well, one of the only reason why I'm still hanging on to Azeal and have not left Lust fully, is the evil forest idea.

I see no reason why the forest can't still be dark and brooding, even if the taint is no longer present... I believe the original Gloriana was, and the taint will likely have left some of an impression.

And that is IF the Gloriana is restored- the result could very well be a failure of the efforts of Serenwilde, the success of Erion and his allies, and the emergence of a Glomdoring commune.

Either way, it is interesting.

The history, setting, ect. of a Glorina commune WOULD NOT MATTER.

No matter how dark, brooding, ect. it was or was meant to be, the players would **** it up into another Serenwilde. You keep ruling out the human factor.

Anyway, I think this event is fine. At least something is happening in there. If Glomdoring in cleansed, however, the game is ruined. Period. End of story.

Kthxbai.

There is nothing narrow minded about it. Just look at all the arguments given by people who play serenwilde charachters as to why serenwilde HAS To hate magnagora and sees little reason to inherently hate Celest. It all focuses around the Taint.

Ofcourse, the Taint could be completely cleansed and the basin will be healed forever and ever, because thats exactly what everyone wants to happen just 1 year after the game opens right?

"There is nothing narrow minded about it. Just look at all the arguments given by people who play serenwilde charachters as to why serenwilde HAS To hate magnagora and sees little reason to inherently hate Celest. It all focuses around the Taint."

And then, there are those Serenwilde characters who believe that Celest is every bit as bad as Magnagora... but I notice they aren't even mentioned here.

I doubt Glorina would ever return to Lusternia. It was consumed by the taint, like sham (can't spell the right name) and the half formed supernals were turned into demon lords. The best anyone could do, is slowly turn it good. However, I believe Magnagora, or the Glom council having the ability to retain the forest

edit: What people need to understand, most celestians are digusting by what old celest did to the Basin. The Council of Light, sought to obtain power and caused the suffering of so many lives. However, New Celest is not Old celest and we will never make the same mistakes. Celest will always be bounded by the failues of old, however we have proven we are not the same, or never will be the same as old celest.

I was one! I thought both were threatening but Celest just pissed me off more

Such views while they may exist with charachters have not been expressed in any arguments on the matter by the players. If someone argued it, I would have mentioned it.

As Guido said, it wouldn't happen without the Taint being an aspect of the commune. When you can get large groups of Serenwilders or Celestians to actually have some sort of philosphical conflict like they do with the Taint, then I will change my tune.

Holy crap I agree with Shiro.

Well, that settles it. It's the Glorianna.

It's quite obvious you do NOT speak for all of Celest. There's quite a few new Celestians that obviously feel Cosmic Hope was a GOOD idea, it just ended bad. Like Erion and the Faeslaying. Good intentions.

But, as Dumihru pointed out, the path to Nil is paved with good intentions... Literally.

what we need to solve the forest issue is ackleberry so we can get rid of all those :censor:ing snugglebunnies that make me want to start nailing heads to trees.

but more seriously. Whether it comes out as Gloriana or Glomdoring I can almost guarantee it will be the evil ithaqua-type forest. the difference would purely be whether it was tainted or not. Not whether it would turn into another Serenwilde. It wouldnt, I couldn't even see a reason for a restored gloriana to want to have anything to do with Serenwilde who just left them to their fate.

oh and...


WE ARE NOT CELEST'S BUDDIES.

I hate Celest just as much as I hate Magnagora, hell as far as I am concerned as long as the taint stays the hell away from our forest, the cities are a much bigger problem anyway. Please please please stop generalising about all serenwilders being anti-taint celest-loving snugglebunnies.

But you play that role so well
