    My typo is just a def line thing, I would think this would be in the same thing as an description.



    Is it the numbus? That's the first one I reported when I came back. Nnnnumbus.


    Yes that is it. At somepoint, we lost the twirlstaff defline and they put in a new one (that was different than the old one) with that typo.

    @Maylea, you have confused me slightly. I thought the Charites/Oneiroi/etc were just shell accounts that any god activated whenever they needed to do something relating to that account? Are there specific people who are each?
    Any sufficiently advanced pun is indistinguishable from comedy.

    But that is interesting. I would figured fixing typo would just be going to the file, fixing it and that being it, taking all of 20-60seconds per typo.
    Except "going to the file" is not a thing we can do. Coders have access  - Ieptix, Estarra, Roark. Other admin sometimes do too but only if they're very skilled programmers to begin with due to the damage they could do. So pretty much anything that isn't a room, item, quest, or ikon, will be in the code and as a codertypo will patiently wait till more important bugs are dealt with.

    Yes, not everyone is everything. We have departments.

    Would it be considered 'worth it' to have a mortal coder whose entire raison d'etre is hunting down code typos? I imagine it takes less time for coding admin to verify 'Yep, Codey found the right typo' via some kind of edit approval queue than it does to dig through the code to find and fix it themselves.

    This is something we have/used to have. I don't know how it works, they answer to coders. Typos are really not that big a deal when we have bigger fish to fry guys. Ieptix or someone will get to it eventually, setting these things up sometimes takes more time than it's worth. Personally I think my time was better spent tracking down a bug that had Marani stay alive and be a nuissance when she should have died during the Mag epic, than wrestling with an ikon typo (they're awful).

    Au contraire. I find that people often don't take problems seriously until they are personally effected.
    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.

    Only d'murani that are causing the whine fest. Waiting on Lavinya and Unzareh to jump next.

    I...dont get it...how is killing a mob..in a statue-less inside room...with no guards...very close to a city exit room...payback? Im missing something here. Someone clarify where the badassness is. If it was at least something of importance, then maybe, but im beginning to see Celina is 98% bark, 1 % bite and 1% fleas at this point...

    I'd like to see a 1v1 between @Celina and you soon then.


    You know I keep hearing of these threats of her 'coming to kill chou' yet I have more deaths to myself than her, as well I am, as even the children of celest can attest, quite active and running around when it seems she either stands at the ravenwood or manse. Should I be standing somewhere with an appointment waiting for her to come and attack me?


    btw, if you think 'badassness' comes down to if you can kill a player or not, then you're in for quite the rough surprise soon :*

    As multi-faceted as interpretations can be, @Celina's brand of "bad-assness" is literal, hits-your-face-with-a-truck-bad-assness. Among the Glomazons right now, she is Ronda Rousey. With a violin. And she sings while playing the violin. And does acrobatics while playing the violin and singing at the same time. Whether you have more deaths to yourself or to Celina is not the point really. It's whether you can face-off on even ground with her or not. I do not think anyone can call someone else 98% bark when that someone can hand your e-corpse over to you easily.

    Sure! If you'd like to make an appointment I'm fairly flexible. 

    Logs. Raves for logs! So many raves.

    Can I just say, I find the idea of Silvanus and Celina in the same guild highly amusing. Can you imagine the first time they piss each other off? The fireworks will be real. And glorious.
    We just need @Lothringen to leave mag also and join SD and we can have a variety of different types of fireworks going off in that guild
