It's a sign, Ash! "You can't control yourself not to buy credits, so I'm going to make it so you CAN'T buy credits!"

Or maybe not.

I know, I'm having to fight the urge to buy credits, even with the bonus sale... I need to save all my money to get to Israel. But with that in mind, it makes it a lot easier not to spend money on things I don't really need.

My problem is that I know I can't afford a flight, even if I'd keep money. >.< Repairing my car cost me half of my savings, so now I need something to cheer me up. ._.

Hrm, I was thinking about buying credits. Glad I waited. But I don't have any cash right now and I can't write a check, cos my parents would be like WTF DID YOUR MONEY GO?

Yay, I logged in and got credits.

I just thought it was interesting to note that Bards in Glomdoring, Magnagora, and Serenwilde are outside of their organizational unquie resurrect skills, and Celestian bards will not be.

My mom'd be the same, but luckily, she doesn't get to read the reports my bank sends me every so often on my account info.

The bank statements go to her and not me! They said to put the home address as the address.. sad.gif

It makes some sense since I don't know if I'll have the same address very long, but meh.. that's creepy.

She checks my cell phone bills too.. sad.gif

Joli... Please don't take this the wrong way... But your mom sounds like she has some issues.

Why? I thought Resurrect and Sacrifice were in Sacraments, and that's Paladin/Celestine only? unsure.gif

Nope. Can be used on anyone. Its just cheaper on Paladins/Celestines.

You can sacrifice for anyone, I'm fairly sure. It just costs more power.

She does. My brother has tried to explain to them to leave me alone or I'm going to run off with some horrible man. biggrin.gif I told my brother I didn't have any men to run off with, because I'd already thought of it.

I've been told some glom/seren bards will choose to use fetishes instead of illusions, so they'll get transmigrate, but I like supporting, not being able to depresses me.

Oh, wait, you mean as the target of the thing? Yeah, sure laugh.gif doh.gif.

I don't like Zenji's signature, and his believing that "making up a fictional story" was the reason Joli was enemied to Glomdoring. rolleyes.gif

Besides, I think walking in Stewartsville is a far stupider reason for enemying than insulting a commune's sole Divine IN FRONT OF THEM, and that's how BOTH my characters have been enemied to Serenwilde, both as novices. Go figure eh?

I actually sent him a private message, titled "New Signature Lows".

His is seriously quite pathetic. Trying to discuss politics in a sig, when it's WRONG no less. laugh.gif

Did she let you know beforehand it was about Viravain? If so, you have no right to say, "Well, she did it right in front of us!" Shouldn't have been there if you knew you wouldn't like it.

Also, I agree that not being resurgable blows. See how Celest likes it if you made Sac/Rezz Sacraments only.

I wasn't there. However, if you read Verithrax's posts in the event thread, you will see that he wrote the parts about Viravain and as he wrote them, "pissing people off" was in mind. Glomdoring members were then *invited to attend* something which was intended to piss them off.

So, um... when the intended result is achieved... happy.gif

To quote him:

QUOTE(Verithrax)

To be fair, I wrote the Viravain section, so it's more my fault than hers.

And ICly, Verithrax just gets a huge kick out of pissing people who take themselves too seriously off.

I did warn them before hand. I said this is a comedy. It has your Goddess in it, so don't take it seriously, because it's a COMEDY.

But that didn't help me any, now did it? tongue.gif

Comedy with Goddess as a character is very different than a skit which seemed to have making fun of that Goddess as its main purpose. If you can't see that, you should probably stop writing tongue.gif

It wasn't about her in the beginning, but well.. me and Verithrax got started and couldn't stop, since we both have IC grief with her.
