Poor rogues :(

Meh. Then I'll take back my statment and just make a comment.
If they can conglutinate on other planes, they should be able in villages too. If not, then not.

You are right. But to discourage rogues, you dont make their life easier. You make it harder for them to exist as one, hence no power, conglutination etc. I can sympathize with Visaeris though, since he is pretty much unwanted anywhere.

I beg to differ. halo.gif

I <3 Vis wub.gif

and no.. I'm not insane.

I really wish Celest would get off it's arse and say what he's gotta do to get citizened or go ahead and tell him 'no'. glare.gif He can't really whore astral either, cos everytime he goes he gets attacked. sad.gif

And yes, I do realize that most of it is his fault, so I'm not like "OMG why are you people attacking Vissy?"

I've managed to not get attacked and Alger even told me I didn't have to run from him, which is good cos we were both afraid I was going to get hunted worse then Vis is. cool.gif

Visaeris is a special type of rogue and thus his life is harder.

Sorry to say this Joli, but if you had been around the time when Visaeris was before he came back from dormancy, then I'd bet you would think a lot differently.

I was. On my old prime. Who he liked to kill. A lot. That's why she never got to level 50, because she got killed. A lot.

I never took that seriously, because... It's a game. ohmy.gif

Err..

Not true.

We conglutinate to Portal of Fate.

If you nerf this I'm coming for you with a rusty spoon sad.gif

When a village is free, its obelisk is thinly connected to all nexuses of power but not the Portal of Fate. It's not really conglutation that saves you.

There's the RP reason. (See we had one!)

I'll mail you a box of cookies if you RP-reason it so it goes to the portal too..

I see the point but I also dont think Rogues should get the benefits of being cityless either, especially if they decide to shrug off every city they go to. Eventually you burn enough bridges you pay for it. Rogue life isnt meant to be easy.

The only reason a rogue would be in a village involved in taking it is if they're trying to actively curry favour to be NOT A ROGUE
Daganev2005-06-23 20:49:33
Or they just like killing people tongue.gif


If you only lose a small amount of xp, being in that village isn't really a sign of you wanting to help them, especially since you can't actually ever help the side you want to help, you can only hinder the "bad guys."
Anumi2005-06-23 20:54:04
Yes, if you want to show your true dedication to The Cause, you'll risk losing big XP to help your newly chosen home.

Also, I think a post of mine has been stealthily removed. Which is eerie. ninja.gif

There's a difference between dedication to "The Cause" and losing about 200hp every half an hour(as I drop a level)
Anumi2005-06-23 20:57:58
What, the thick layer of ash from all those burned bridges doesn't make up for it by armoring you?

Was it stupid and pointless? If it was, it was me. If it wasn't, someone else. Or something. I dunno.

Remember that battle last night, where you kept trying to kill/debate me? I walked into that because I was asked to. I suck at fighting, Chade had to give me a macro for debating, and every time I influenced a dwarf, I was -typing- it. Some of us walk into something because they believe in it, or think they can help. Did I whine afterwards? No. Are you complaining because you might have to die for something you want? Yes.

A little work never killed an... wait. Nevermind.

I'm not whining. I don't mind dying, I just think that it's fairly reasonable to let rogues conglutinate to the Portal. Rogues have about a billion disadvantages already, no need to add on another smile.gif

If the matter was already considered, and it was decided specifically to not allow rogues to conglutinate.. So be it.
