  • @Xenthos, @Roark: What I don't understand is why the nouns couldn't…
  • For hunting on Astral: image
  • @Everiine: Hooray for Skies of Arcadia! I played it on the Dreamcast when it first came out.
  • Yeah, 100 would be more than enough to kill the tedium. I just don't see that waiting for multiple run throughs of the flavor text to complete = any RP approximation of the RL time and effort required to learn complex skills. But whatev. Your mileag…
  • Honestly, I don't see why you shouldn't be able to learn as many lessons as possible in a single go. LEARN 1715 DRAMATICS FROM EURYTUS. Boom, you're Trans'd. Doesn't detract anything from the experience, IMO. I do however agree that the tutors and f…
  • Make defenses stay up for a full ten minutes disconnected from the MUD, so that if someone DCs uncontrollably, they don't have to put up all their defenses again and waste power.
  • (Quote) The other emote idea is golden, too, and so are all of the ones that Svorai suggested a little while back. But honestly, if we get nothing else, I would LOVE to have colored says in emotes. That one change would make such a diff…
  • Hrm. Well that's another thing I've learned today. The help scroll I read about anti-theft didn't mention that. Of course, it still stands to reason that being less conspicuous when sleeping somewhere vulnerable is less likely to attract unwanted at…
  • (Quote) The Tempest rocks. It's gotta be like my favorite Shakespeare play, other than maaaaaybe King Lear.

    I'm currently reading Celebrations of Death: the Anthropology of Mortuary Ritual and Le Morte d'Arthur.
  • (Quote) Because while burrowed you're out of the way, and thus less likely to be preyed upon by Dreamweavers and such than if you were sleeping out in the open. You might want to rest up and continue hunting without the bother of return…
  • Please to let me sleep while burrowing!
  • (Quote) A fair point - and that's cool what you did with the pig nose. But people may not want their characters to wear hats, especially if they end up being worn on top of helmets.
  • Yeah, but it hides ALL your clothing. And I don't believe you can customize artifacts to be invisible?
  • A Rune of Racial Anonymity that can be invested in a race hat to make it invisible, so as to make it even better for racial/RP flexibility.

    Alternately, the ability to pay credits to customize specifically race hats to be invisi…
  • (Quote) I agree - any number of reasons could be fabricated for Tavon to not be cool with gay marriage. I don't feel comfortable critiquing someone else's RP motives without much more information than that.
  • The ability to HIDEHELM for those of us that don't want helmets appended to our descriptions, but still want the mechanical benefits of wearing them.
  • (Quote) Riffing off of this last suggestion, I think the ability to use prefatory phrases in character descriptions would be great. Something like:

    DESCRIBE SELF (Standing five feet and eight inches tall)
  • This is awesome! I could not support anything any more. I'll look at it more thoroughly in the morning and see if I have anything constructive to add. Here's hoping that these ideas get implemented!
  • The ability to begin a description "He is a graceful elfen lord," with a comma at the end, like that, if desired. Or alternately with no comma. The point is, IMO it would be better if we could ditch the word "and."
  • The ability to tag characters in prefatory phrases. For example:

    say (tilting his head at ^Rivius) Why do you say that?
