* Damola responds with a link to another beautiful cover of one of the songs Gonger posted:

Nina Simone - Wild Is The Wind – https://invidious.snopyta.org/watch?v=CiVDzTT4CbE

Nice event so far. Quite different than the usual ones.

Just curious, how many people are playing these days?
Is the RP just gm events or are there enough players that there is spontaneous rp?

It really depends. You can be lucky that someone is around. I usually play on weekends at the moment. Around market time you usually find some people willing to RP. But I also still had nice RP during the week at times.

The answer to this and many other questions lies here:
http://planeshift.teamix.org/myplane/

I suggest always recommending the HTTPS URL:

https://planeshift.teamix.org/myplane/

This way passwords are transferred with TLS encryption to the server.

I'd love to make HTTPS mandatory, but last time I tried that, the main game website https://planeshift.it broke – probably due to still relying on HTTP to retrieve some content from planeshift.teamix.org. I hope that after Unreal port is completed, there is time to improve the infrastructure around PS.

I also do not use Discord. I know its widely used in the gaming community, but I am still not convinced that they have a strong approach to privacy and I did not research closer to see what they actually have. I read somewhere they may use chat postings for advertisement and that would be a big no-no for me. But I did not yet verify this claim. These days I am more and more reluctant of using internet services where I have even slight doubts about their privacy. However, using this forum over HTTP instead of HTTPS is also not ideal, but I understand there may be no one with time to fix this at the moment.

Events, market and RP is strong in PlaneShift currently. I also like the Dev Q&A. I would love the an occasional post on development with screenshots in the forum.

I sometimes intended to post about some events with a story as Damola experienced it and I know these have been well received in the past, but with all the chaos in the world… and all that is going on in my life I found it difficult to take time for it.

I am very grateful that you and the other developers continually work on the Unreal port and on extending the game. I am looking forward to it, while enjoying the wonderful RP we have since quite some time. Many thanks to Uadjet, with his strong commitment to one event *every* *single* *Saturday* since a long time, he contributed *a lot* to provide the space for nice RP to happen. Really, Talad, you have a gem of a GM here!

Many thanks also to all the players who participate in events or come to the market. Without them, there could be no events and no market.

I have seen RP that IMHO one could make a movie of. It shaped Damola further into who she is. It deepened her convictions as a healer and strengthened her commitment.

Howdy, WiseKran! I have not yet been around at 2004… but I am around since quite a time as well. Mostly at weekends currently.

Check out the wonderful GM events at Saturday evening as well as the market on Sunday. You can usually run into Damola as well as other longer term players and newbies. For some of the unforgetable moments for Damola see posts

- When a GM leaves early…

- She did it again aka Union Day

- The Sneaky Emerald aka The Tavern Unheard Of

- and last but certainly not least: The Glyph Hunter VI – an installment of the famous Glyph Hunter series with master adventurer Radavan

in Roleplay Events.

After the first two you may have a bet what kind of creature Damola is especially fond of :)

There are certainly other moments, we chased a fire madman at one time, a crazy necromancer at another, but we also introduced an all vegan meal to the cook in Hydlaa and what have you. There is really quite a variety in the kind of event ideas Uadjet and sometimes players come up with.

It those times where souls around the globe connect and it does not matter where you come from or who you are to just have a great storytelling time and to immerse into a world, where in the end it can be simpler than in the chaotic times in the so called real world we live in – but mind you if we so choose through all the chaos we can co-create a new more human time of freedom, abundance and fairness for everyone.

So hopefully that was some teasing and see you in game eventually!

I am very grateful that we have a GM like Uadjet who does a lot so we can have a lot of fun in the game, while at the same time our tireless developers continue to port the game to Unreal and in the Dev Q&A you can learn about all the new stuff they come up!

Thank you, Uadjet. Thank you Talad, for your tireless dedication to keep it up. And thank you, of course to all the other developers, GMs and of course also players!

You make this game something very special for me that I did not find anywhere else so far.

[While you can still find the place with the food, unfortunately the server crashed again and so the Pterosaurs have been reset to their standard location]

As usually you can remove the filename from an URL of the first or second post, to obtain access to the directory which contains all the images in original Full HD, 1920x1080, size and other images in full size I did not use for the post. Both posts have different directories, so do it once for the first and once for the second post.

As you may be aware of, there has been a similar story before that:

"When a GM leaves early…"  in "In-Game Roleplay Events"

Over night she dreamed of the Pterosaurs. They appeared somewhat bored and restricted in the small stables to her. She woke up, pondering: "Of course I would have no permission of Cassik to just take them to another place. But they looked bored… hmmm… how about I may just borrow them?" While she hesitated in the end she could not help it. However she only found one of the Pterosaurs initially:



Of course the Pterosaur needed some food. As Damola herself prefers plant based foods – despite being a Nolthrir – she only had one fish. She also brought some vegetable foods, but the Pterosaur would only eat a little of it. So she formed the intention to buy some fish for the Pterosaur, as she was not aware of a lake nearby [Would be nice to have one in Unreal based PS… or even several].

She also wrote a note in case either Cassik or a traveller would find the Pterosaur:



She also wrote a note for Cassik at the stables. She had the feeling that Cassik would understand her. Especially as she said "I think it should remain in the open or in the stable for now. If they panic inside a building they can do a lot of damage to themselves and anything they can reach".



Of course she could not help to show other guild friends like Haviland and Gorub that she "secured" a Pterosaur again:



Somehow she had the feeling that Haviland did not really agree with her notion of "borrowing" the Pterosaur.

She wondered though about the other two Pterosaurs, and well, so she hid in the rafters of the stables [That was also why Damola left Dev Q&A early :)]:



She waited, and waited, but then something happened. To her surprise it seems a Derghir has been involved to bring the other Pterosaurs. [Actually what happened is that the server crashed and the one Pterosaur Damola brought to her secret location was not there anymore as its position was reset. So I asked Uadjet to put them back. Of course that partly spoiled the fun cause then Uadjet was aware of what Damola was up to. My personal bet is that he expected her to do this kind of stuff though :) ]



She continued to hide until the Derghir left and then she brought all Pterosaurs to her food place with the help of Anysu.

Anysu, Gova and herself enjoyed a flight around Gugrontid then, climbing the highest mountains like



and enjoying a marvelous view on the city:



[OOC]

They even explored some kind of not so official places. of course, that's OOC :), I bet that won't be as easily possible with Unreal based PS if at all:



[/OOC]

Eventually they arrived at the food place again:



After all the excitement and the flight with the Pterosaur Damola was tired. And no surprise, what could be a better place to sleep than with her new friends, the three Pterosaurs?



The next morning she looked after the Pterosaurs before she even thought on putting on her dress:



The Pterosaurs where fine, with all of the fish Damola brought. She even managed to obtain a special mix of Seaweeds that helps them to stay healthy.

So it happened that a group of brave people rescued some Pterosaurs from a situation that scared them. [Please do fill in some details, I joined the event very late!]

Of course these Pterosaurs needed to be brought somewhere and while Damola was still in the hospital caring for a patient, she somehow felt that there would Pterosaurs coming to the city. She finished her work with the patient and then looked for them from the city walls. And surely enough she found the group approaching Amdeneir and rejoiced, summoning her drifter Shirwa to get there as quickly as possible.

Eriz was kind enough to let her ride the Pterosaur he rode:



Damola was so happy to ride a Pterosaur again. Happy enough that she did not really care to find the place where they were to be brought to quickly. But eventually she made it to the place and had her drifter Shirwa and the Pterosaur make friends with one another.



Reluctantly, very reluctantly she brought the Pterosaur into the stables, thinking that it would somehow look a bit sad to her:



But before she brought another one into the stables, she flew with it to one of the towers at the city wall of Amdeneir:



She eventually brought it into the stables as well, Gonger standing next to her:



… to be continued

Heh… quite judgmental of midbie players.

I bet Damola would be a midbie. But played by a crappy player? Well… make your own opinion.

Yeah, I was just joking around.
How've ya been, Damola? Still playing these days?

Still playing. Albeit mostly on weekends. Uadjet does such a marvelous job with GM events on Saturday. And then on Sunday there is market and on some weekends Dev Q&A.

No. Midbies are not special snowflakes like newbies and are not entitled to their own thread. They don't get hand holding and coddling for lacking knowledge or their asses kissed for being here first and in many cases, being crappy players... but I won't go there..
