Shiri-bot, I am saddened by you!

Damn.

I thought it was Auseklis.

It's hard to discuss what is good and bad RP if you people are looking at things from different perspectives. In reality anything can be explained by a stretch of imagination. Killing things for gold is an OOC perspective that can be explained by IC means. All the person has to do is just say hey I wanted to so. No regard for life no conscience. It's not bad RP in that point of view nor is it OOC at all. Hell the person can even answer the question of "why did you kill your brethren." with the line "for the experience." A bit psychotic but still can be seen as IC.

Anyway if you want to make what is good and bad RP then you should right guidlines on how to RP. Basis of what things are and how they should be percieved as. What usually gets called bad rp is an event that seems illogical to the other person but like said above hardly anything can be called illogical given that we see Lusternia from our own unique perspectives. The major flaw is that our perspectives clash.

Back to work for me... sorry if the above didn't make any sense.

(didn't know I was on Jad's account... Alger here.)

Ah, the warm fuzzy feeling of being proven right by the admin...

Lisaera didn't say they are. She said that you could argue they are. This isn't proving you right, this is just saying that it could go either way.

I tend to wonder alot lately if people read a full sentence or only grasp the words that they wish to see.

Wasn't talking to you Gregori. I was talking about another argument entirely I had about wether ID numbers are IC or not.

Gregori, strictly speaking people don't even read whole words but only see the first and last letters and then sort of guess the rest. Knowing that, where do you get the notion anyone actually reads sentences?

Could've sworn another admin (I think it was Lisaera too) said that the Elders split themselves knowing it would result it near-immortality as well since many of them would just get sent back by the Fates.

I think that what they meant by 'near-immortality' is that the races descended from them would reproduce and go on. Individual people die, but entire races don't.

gregori: it's called selective reading... you know like selective hearing... it's them womanly traits!... ha I'm inactive you lusternian women cannot repremand me for my chauvinistic ways.

I find it troubling and in good reason why I left Celest and its because of this evil inquisitionary style of government that Celest has only recently adopted. I find a lot of your arguments on perceived logic to be ridiculous. There is more to life than logic. What I find odd is disregarding the morality of Celest that has been RPed up until Hajamin. There are a lot of people who in turn do not like Hajamin and his style of Celestian thinking if you could call it that.

I applaud Kaileigh for leaving under the circumstances. Why would I want to be in a city that would slay the people of my village of Delport? In the same light I do not see the city of Delport following the Light and yet Celest thinks of Delport as something worth dying for.

There is a very twisted world view going about saying things as small as protecting innocent beings is wrong. That is what Celest has always been about. You just don't go killing people who aren't of the light or directly affiliated with it without cause. If the Merians are the only mages there protecting our world from the Gorgogs wouldn't that mean something worth saving in of it self? The very meaning that these aquamancers are the only mages left says a great deal of the Merian people and to disregard that I think is folly.

And you wonder why I left.

I'd also like to address the meaning of life and death in Lusternia. Not everyone has entered the portal of fate to be marked by fate. Thus not everyone comes back. Right? Thus those who are marked by fate are the Hero's of Lusternia, no? The simple fact that not everyone who enters the portal of fate comes out is a big deal, that is why not everyone goes through it. But it its those who do try that come out that become heros.

How I roleplayed my character I did not even know I entered into the Portal but I retained all my past experiences. So when I died it was then I found out that somehow I entered it.

So in that regard the meaning of protecting people that do not have this fated mark on their thread is something I think is worth dying for.
