    This right here has been the crux of my entire position.

    For all the anecdotal evidence that some people sit around looking for people to shoot tells to, I have plenty of anecdotal evidence of people decidedly not<…
  • Wouldn't the exact same proposed effect occur if more of us would elect to actually be on Prime instead of just creating the illusion of it?
  • Right, and I'm arguing that the incentives of the tools we work with are actually our own fault.

    The incentive (and the problem) appears to be defined as finding somebody to interact with. The fundamental flaw with the idea that a changin…
  • Aethers that literally everyone can hear and respond to. It's not that some name appears on a list that makes those aethers feel empty. It's that, as has been admitted, people don't use them that makes them feel empty.

    If you did u…
  • I did. Because there are already things implemented which can mitigate this already, that we do not even use.

    To rephrase, perhaps, why is asking for new toys, which even proponents for seem to agree might not even do
  • That meaningless changes are not helpful to an already taxed and changing system?

    I think because things aren't happening now, we need a bit more than just hoping a change solves it. So far, there's not really a compelling example of why people would actually behave any differently with a few more names rathe…
  • To somebody not responding on CT, GT, or whatever? What does that accomplish? People open to unsolicited tells tend to be the same ones who will respond elsewhere, too.

    If people aren't using what they already have, because our culture is…
  • I guess I just don't understand why, if people are already not interacting with you on already available channels, why being aware of who exactly they are would add any additional interaction.
  • Cloaked players are already uncloaked to the relevant allies who would be affected by this. If it's allowing non-org people to see, even if it's just saying "somebody" is cloaked here, that undermines the purpose of the gem. For example, "I s…

    If you're dismissing some of the features already in place as "crap," it's shifting your tone pretty heavily into the "I just want free stuff" perception. If you don't even want to use what is already in place, what diffe…
  • For those of us who have little or no interest in curios, the whole trading system doesn't work when trying to trade stuff away to the people who actually want them. On the off-chance I do want a curio, I can buy a completed one from somebody for di…
  • It would be nice to have that information in a help file somewhere, more than anything else. I didn't even know this was a goop thing, got it from Ironbeard or something I think? Apparently searches on any of those goop items don't return res…
  • Whatever it is the race pins actually do, I can't find them on any dingbat or credit arti page.
  • I've wondered about that, actually. It would even make sense if we had ever interacted in any other way. But I'm pretty sure I was just a ridiculously easy target.
  • When griefing was commonplace in the early days, Alacardael seemed to have a particular interest in griefing this character, or so it really felt. Like he bothered other, earlier Serens I made too (I think that was just his thing?) but whenever Ril …
  • If people are entering the game feeling that they can't even reach out sans Planar, then I would disagree, there certainly is a problem understanding. Many long-term friendships start from that initial CGT Hey guys, anyone here? From there it…
  • It might be helpful to let new characters now (somewhere right after the intro?) that, if needed, people can still hear you on stuff like CGT regardless of planes requisite skills.

    We already do have at least a few stuff to mitigate it, b…
  • (Quote) I've been getting 4-5 goop with each urtrap critter.
  • Thanks guys. These are all exactly the kind of contributions I am looking for.
  • (Quote) It's some sort of soul speaking to us through the item Avechna gave. Really, who would be speaking to us like this?
  • (Quote) I'm not getting stuck because any exceptions I can easily handle manually. I want mmf to stop consuming stuff.

    edit - sometimes.

    MMCONFIG USEHEALING NONE/PARTIAL/FULL, but even at full this module has never really given the kind of behaviour I'm looking for, which is not using other cures at all. I think it only modifies cleanse/succor?
  • No.

    If you're on fire, for example, m&m will automatically apply ice. I'd like to tweak it so instead of "apply ice" it always sends "cure me", regardless of the actual cure. And also be able to toggle between the two behaviors.
  • They keep remastering all this new stuff that wasn't (un?)mastered in the first place, or so it seems to me.

    Meanwhile, I'm back here still playing games from the age of polygonal 3D that could probably actually use remastering. Bless you…
  • It is most definitely a spirit/liquor. That distillation is pretty much the definition.

  • (Quote) Most likely because people are more complicated than that. It's entirely possible to genuinely like an overall product even if there are elements of it that you don't. It's not game-breaking to be frustrated every once in a while.
  • Then the answer is probably no, for probably the exact same reason you yourself posted a flippant meme on somebody else's concerns.
