It's quite possible. Students like Erebey never heard of Lordbug or Arka (KS). Pathseekers of the Hammer never heard of Apis or Zwenze, even Cilay is "only" a quest legend now... and who remembers Easton, Verrliit, and the Sworn Council of Yliakum?

Eek, I feel old...

Some of you might remember me for a few years ago. I played Apis, the first guild master of The Way of The Hammer.

Man that was some time ago. Just popping in to say hi and see who is still around.

I cant seem to remember my login for Apis so at the moment I wont be bringing him back to PS

Apis is a weapons merchant and as such has had to learn weapons skills and the stats to go with them, as well as stats to be a weapons merchant, ie - strength, to carry two large leather bags of merchandise.

these were gained mostly by PLing. Is this IC or OOC? Probably a bit of both.

What I hate about the game mechanics is making a merchant do 'quests' - petty little jobs for people (NPCs) that are too lazy to walk to the next town or are so forgetful that they loose everything...

Apis, as a successful merchant (before one one of the DB cleans left him almost broke and with no merchandise), could afford to buy things like the glyphs from quests and winch access. Why does he have to do OOC running around to gain IC use of these things?

try running ./pssetup and check the settings
other than that I haven't seen that error before

ps the game server is down...

The way I read it was the threads were locked when people started getting abusive to the devs and/or mods. I think that that is fair enough.
I almost felt ashamed of the community at some points, there is no need to talk like that to anyone, especially people that make your fun time fun by producing PS for us.

Why do you need to install the server edition?
It only comes down to the choice of packages in the end.
Admittedly I would have an other choice than ubuntu, but ubuntu is not all bad

where is PS installed atm?
Not in the dir that you are in when you exec ./psupdater?

edit: beaten to it
