We need someone to come and inspire the censor.gif out of us.

(also, I'm around more often than you'd think...just haunting my manse rather than going to prime. It's hard to motivate myself to do anything...)

I log in from time to time, interact with Conscripts and other members of the Company, hang out with my ingame wife, that kind of stuff.

Also, still voting on stuff, though not very active in the whole "discussion" part much anymore. Planning on rectifying that some time.

Whenever I log in, someone reminds me that my character isn't wearing clothing, which painfully reminds me I have zero time to log on essentially and make sure I'm stocked up. Getting bugged about that when I get to log in is a big turn off. sad.gif

Just go all emporer's new clothes on them. Or if the character in question is in gaudi, tell them that they just need to adjust their paradigm.

Sadly, Hallifax that one, Gaudi, Seren and Glom people don't seem to notice/care.

I think the website needs work, but it's never going to go back to the old one. Maybe they should solicit a few players who are skilled in web design and development to help out.

There are good things about the web site, such as the admin blog.

Best part about the website! wub.gif

Also, Hallifax, you disappoint me. sad.gif All of you awesome people need to come back.

Stasis gems on all of my furniture, rack and cabinet especially, and a powerplex jewel. I make sure I'm ready to come back after hibernating. Cabinets are a godsend.

Because of cabinets, I'm wearing the same set of robes I had made when I returned to this game in early 2009.

My poor little thing is a bit too young for that, but it is a fair point. biggrin.gif

Admittedly, the absence of certain individuals slightly disincentivizes logging in, in my case. geek.gif

There's still plenty to keep me playing, but a big part of what made my online time enjoyable is now gone.

Way too much crying about what isn't here and not enough 'Let's make it better.' I'm getting tired of being the only one logged in with a bunch of novices while everyone else is on the forums posting about missing inactive people and that's why they don't log on anymore.

It's gotta say something when Daedalion's the guy with the right mindset

This. I wanted to say it but coming from me, it always seems evil. halo.gif I just don't understand why the people who are complaining about Hallifax being empty are also the ones proudly announcing to the forum community that they're alting around or too busy to play.

Note: I stopped playing in Hallifax much before people started disappearing. It's totally a coincidence that other people decided to take their vacations at the same time as me, and regardless of who is around, I'm just not really...into it. Demigod is so dull. sad.gif

Idea: Heartstop and phoenix a few times.

If that does not help you, then your problem is not Demigod being dull, it is just an excuse.

It's not so much demigod itself, it's just the situation of being completely accomplished in my mechanically enforced goals. I'm max CR, GR, and level, and I like having these things (and no, I don't really want to go through any part of Titan again), but it's hard for me to motivate myself to do anything anymore because of it.

Also, what? Just an excuse? If I'm not having fun playing a game, I'm not going to spend my time playing it. There is absolutely no obligation making me log in for hours at a time. I play like an hour a day still. Just because I'm not as active as I was before doesn't mean I am forbidden from commenting on the fact that Hallifax is rather dead lately.
Malicia2011-04-07 22:39:48
Edit: Actually, I don't really care. The lack of forum spam by Halli players of late has been pleasant for me, at least.

You stated that being Demigod made you not wish to play; if losing Demigod does not change your motivation, then that itself is naught but an excuse.

You're right that there is no obligation, but you're better off just saying that you feel like you've done everything you want and you're done rather than just pinning it all on one little facet which you could easily rectify (there are definitely people who have intentionally lost Demigod). There's no reason to go through Titan again if you do not wish to be a Demigod, after all!
