Jad, if anything, it's you that takes every opportunity to share your thoughts and 'wisdom' on the Serenwilde, which are most often inaccurate. In my opinion. So yeah, I will speak up. It's not personally aimed at you, your character. Your comments towards ME about Amaru...that you just did AGAIN in your previous post prove just how bitter you are about whatever transpired between you two and not ME AND YOU. You should PM Amaru and ask him for an apology for all the wrong you feel he caused you. I don't haunt the threads looking for ways to make you miserable.

I will agree that we're both stubborn, but I will respond to whatever posts I wish. You don't -have- to post if you don't want any feedback. Sorry if I have offended you though. It wasn't my aim.

Ya know I wonder what would have happened had everyone actually listend to Viravain in the beginning instead of complaining about it.

Thinking back, I've seen so many flaws in my roleplay, it makes me sick to my stomach. Ah well. Repeats only happen in the kiddy-leagues.

Must every thread even remotely concerned with Glomdoring degenerate into largely irrelevant bitching?

You've almost got it right. Just take five words out of the middle and you're golden.

My wolf is sniffing around this thread to see if it needs eating... you had best make it useful quick-like.

I saw you posted, and was hoping for a witty comment and a lock. Damn.
Unknown2005-08-20 22:53:58
Lisaera is at her wittiest when she is at her most irritated, so I wouldn't be too eager.

I'll give you a quarter if you poke Her wolf with a big pointy stick.

Her wolf has already torn Guido's throat out in-game, I don't want her coming after me IRL now.

Before this gets locked, I wanted to point out a little detail so you all can laugh at Sobran.

QUOTE(Sobran @ Aug 20 2005, 01:09 PM)
Its apparent that Xavius is an Alt of someone who's been in the game before.  But he's also a novice.  Cover the literature given to you as a Novice teacher of the guild, and you're good as gold.  You didn't do that.
169405



Now go honours me. Sobran's an alt in comparison. I'm a world leader, dammit.

Edit: And the fact that you persist in accusing Marsu after I rubbed your nose in this in game is not boding well for you. I don't even have access to the guild logs, and I was able to find evidence of Marsu spending time getting me started. I mean, God forbid that he didn't stand there and teach me the 4000 lessons I brought in tow.

No, you're a sad little Sickling! Die! *wave sickle!*

A geomancer can't forcetaint a shadow forested room, they have to defoliate. They get the message 'this place is already tainted', or something, just like they would get if they tried tainting in, say, Magnagora.

That sort of clears up the 'we're not tainted!' thing, although there's already so much evidence that it is tainted that they ignore, I doubt it makes much difference.

I hate to say it... well, no, I don't. Any text reference to taint as a skill... ie, survey... is entirely OOC. If your character can't see taint, then no amount of "CHECK SURVEY" will change that "forest" into "tainted forest." Period.

OOCly, sure, we're tainted as heck. But we are roleplaying here.

It's more than a text reference. Every Geomancer knows if they try to taint a shadow forest, nothing in it is going to change.

It's IC.

Unknown2005-08-20 23:42:31
And it's perspective. OOCly, of COURSE we'll see Tainted Forest. But game mechanics really shouldn't be used like that.

I'd like Crow/Night totems to change SURVEY so they can't see Tainted Forest. It would just say "forest".

That would force every single person in Glomdoring to take on the "THE TAINT IS NOT REAL" thing, which would be horrible. Terrible. Really, really bad.

But it would stop these idiots from crying foul. And would make sense.

Crow DENIES his followers the vision of the Taint. PERIOD. If you play it any other way, you're really just breaching roleplay. Night lies about it, and, maybe, don't change it for her, but. Shrug. Night lies.

SURVEY
You are in the Glomdoring Forest.
The terrain is that of a (technically tainted but since Viravain's nucking futs, we're going to say it's not tainted) forest.
Xenthos2005-08-20 23:52:35
Survey is IC.

The text that it returns is not. It's like that thread about the geomancer wasteland "sickening" the land, it's all about perception. If my character cannot see taint, he cannot see it, no matter how much it is referred to. As such, the references are *not* IC, as a character he CANNOT see them.

A lot of things are described to give an OOC feel to things so that we, as players, can understand and somewhat relate to what is going on. That does not mean our characters are forced to see things that way.

I'm colorblind. No matter HOW MUCH people tell me the shirt I'm wearing is pink, I SEE GRAY.
