They sure didn't fight much when Talkan stole Athine's stuff confused.gif

edit: not saying I approve of either situation.


The stuff that was returned to her? Or some other stuff?

Yeah I think her pack got returned but it wasn't immediate. But your sword will be returned too (I think, well and hope)

Hehe, keep dreaming. I'm pretty sure that one is a goner. It's alright though. I haven't forged in awhile.

Oooh! Neat!! What is it?


It's a shackled kitty. Here's a taste:
A manacled kitten slowly shuffles in from the south, her entry preceded by metallic clinking and pitiful mewling.

That's neat though! I've got plans to get a critter for my manse too. But first I've got to build the part it'll live in! laugh.gif

Take a look at her...she's cute when you pet her.

But I spent a pretty long time on her description.

I just wanted to say that while it is sweet, nice, kind and considerate of the few people who do return weapons and clothing lost during fights, one has to remember that this action is in most cases very OOC.



While most of the loud complaints about weapons and armour not being returned are made by Celest players, do remember that this does not mean it does not happen the other way around. My character for example, has had his greatsword(forged by Ashteru) taken and never to be returned. And he wont ever ask for it, cos that's just too OOC. I mean...what sort of a person asks, "Please return my sword, so that I may continue killing you and your people."

Not necessarily. All the orgs have laws against stealing because, even from an IC perspective, it's just being unduly cruel and dishonourable. You can perfectly ICly invoke these laws without stepping over the RP wall.

Nuh uh. You simply can't. This honour thing is a hangover from other games. It's not something that's ever been emphasized in the Ur'Guard.

If I want my sword back, I ask OOC. Because ICly, Aiakon wouldn't and couldn't. If people ask for their swords back from me, they need to do it OOCly, because ICly, Aiakon won't unless it's somehow made worth his while.

It's just a situation where OOC has to outweigh IC.

Point taken.

So, Neuf, In summary, it's okay to ask OOCly about things like that. If they don't accept and send it to you, then they're just being a p**** and asking their superior might help.

Well, also take into consideration that some guilds / organizations may not think it is honourable to return things, but instead might believe that stealing them in the first place is contemptible and seek their return for that reason, instead of honour. Same OOC goal, but makes more since for certain IC organizations / attitudes than trying to drag honour into the picture.

If you bring me new comms, I'll just forge for you again. tongue.gif Sorry to hear you lost such a wonderful piece of art, fashioned by the finest hands available. sad.gif

Out-of-game raves belong here too, right?

Discovered an old, but nevertheless extremely intriguing game, Star Control II. Incredibly sophisticated for a 1992 (I think) production. Also, the races are really weird, in a cool way.
