@Steingrim speaking from experience - no matter how good your own reasoning and the importance you felt to leave, you're ever going to cop heat for leaving as VA. Years on I still get shade and jabs and I returned and paid back just over half the debt.
If nothing else, it sure makes for a juicy, angsty RP base to work from.
Didn't you retire yesterday and say you hated where the game was going? Why stick around just to offer petty retorts? If the environment is that bad for you move on from it.
It's okay, Lusternia can afford to lose players and therefore dismiss and deny the reasons why players leave.
Well if all the other players leave then the admin don't need to actually work on the other orgs in the game?
The mindset that leavers and complainers don't matter has done so much good for the game so far, despite you know... years of evidence to the contrary, all the research that shows how deeply flawed it is, and basic common sense.

Difference is I paid the debt in full. /flex Edit: I also did what is absolutely best for the org. Edit2: I also did what was IC for the character with doing the least damage to the org, instead of remaining and risking the org blowing up.
EDIT: Tired of the shade and jabs. Less verbiage, just this. (Dude I was kinda sticking up for you and finding a silver lining.)
If that is to me I was neither taking a jab back at you or being defensive. I did have to consider the effect of leaving suddenly and I know how much power I've been responsible in contributing (over the years) and how many credits I spent out of my own pocket to reward other people for bringing in power. I'm just saying the normal rules don't apply to me in this situation.
I did have to decide if the value of remaining and possibly hamstringing the outcome later in the event was worth the extra non-insignificant power leaving early would cost them. It did give me pause and I even considered the impact it had on you (remember I did icly appeal on your behalf).
You know @Lavinya - Steingrim raises a really, really valid point. You weren't CL of Mag, sure, but the amount of power and time you contributed and still contribute to Magnagora would make up tenfold for what you lost by quitting (not to mention the enormous amount you did pay back after the fact, lol).
Right, I don't think anybody here is saying, "You're horrible for doing it!", Lavi was saying to just expect it regardless of how much you paid for it. Kind of goes along with our real world where no amount of reparations fixes an accusation. The people that want to hold it over his head are going to regardless of how much he's put into the city.
I remember the name, but we've never met. Welcome back!
Everiine said: The reason population is low isn't because there are too many orgs. It's because so many facets of the game are outright broken and protected by those who benefit from it being that way. An overabundance of gimmicks (including game-breaking ones), artifacts that destroy any concept of balance, blatant pay-to-win features, and an obsession with convenience that makes few things actually worthwhile all contribute to the game's sad decline.
It has a Great Rune of Razing attached to it (#300442).
if I change class what happens to my rune?
It stays on the weapon. As long as you're wielding that weapon, any of your other attacks will still do the razing thing. If you don't want to / can't wield that weapon any more, you'd need to look into an infini-last plier to detach & move it (unless you have 1500 credits sitting around for the permanent version...).
We've just gotten fully caught up with all of your post-Beauty messages & flagged designs. Sorry to all Our lovely designers for the delay, and thank you to our fantastic reviewers for all their hard work!
We might be a bit slow in the next few weeks as We're working on something really big. We'll do our best to keep up with your insatiable appetites for fashion!

Tonight amidst the mountaintops
And endless starless night
Singing how the wind was lost
Before an earthly flight
Lycidas's post mocked a crappy attitude that's having a negative impact on the game and you seemly told them to leave.
Accountability is necessary.
