The more of an ass you are, the closer I am to locking this thread :)

Didn't i tell you to stop speaking in the third person? You're gonna need pills for that i guess.


PS = Censorship
Stalin= Karyuu

Watch the lock friends.... It was good, but our words mean nothing.
If you want change, sign the petition:
http://www.petitiononline.com/mod_perl/signed.cgi?PSDuel&1

Maybe talad will listen to us.

Dude Zanzibar, you don't even know cebot.

Yes I do.

Don't lie, if you know him so well, tell me how many times you've seen him in game, and how many times you've spoken to him.

But sadly he's right, Zanzibar, you were never a good duelist, and so you are bitter about dueling all together.
You hardly go in game as it is.

And you want us to take your in game experience? What experience?

OH and roahn, that's Gharan, believe it or not i don't care.

Not everyone does that karyuu, some of us have a sense of morals and ethics....

A lot of people have made really good points in this thread (thank you!) but others just have their heads stuck where the sun don't shine. And it's a real pity.

Stop speaking to yourself in the third person.

Maybe you should go read the signatures :)



Look, if you want to have something done, stop being a jackass.

THAT'S GHARAN!!!!

I told him to go sign it, and he signed it as that, cause he was busy, If you don't belive me ask him yourself.

Don't accuse people and start making up Stuff karyuu.

You could have just simply asked, whose that, and gharan would have told you right away, me, him, and chaz are on msn right now, laughing our asses off at you.

Five signatures and they are already being faked? That's awesome :) We will definitely give in to your demands now that we know you're serious! Gee golly!

Lol who faked?

What is wrong with that thing sitting above your shoulders karyuu.
Did your parents teach you nothing but how to lie?
Who faked?

God, sometimes you just irratate me to death. :thumbdown:

Dude Zanzibar, you don't even know cebot.

You almost NEVER log on, and never talk to the community.

And yet you say cebot's annoying.... where do you get this from?

You've lost all credibility in my eyes bro.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

And roahn, it just opened right now, in 1 minute 5 sigs, don't act like a n00b.

You don't have to "do" petitions Karyuu..

The dev-team can just continue to ignore the players if they wish... it seems to increasingly be becoming a trait.

That's exactly what it's there to prove, if karyuu had actually read my post....

Here it is for her to glance at again:

We could have 100 people scream to revert it back, and it wouldn't happen.

Did you read that karyuu?

You only further backed up my point by saying, we don't do petitions.

Thank you for that, now go do some dev work, that's very important, and doesn't waste your time, that can't wait.

You know what, i doubt the community will do anything.

We could have 100 people scream to revert it back, and it wouldn't happen.

But lets proove that the vast majority of people want it reverted:

If you want the Dueling system fixed back to the way it was, be sure to sign that petition.

Dude, seriously - why don't you try posting without any hostility here? There are people who made some really good posts (Lanarel especially) and then I see you spazzing out, and it just completely turns me off from wanting to listen to what you have to say. How can you post what you post, and then say "no offence"?

Dude how long have you played this game for?

Do you even know the dueling we're talking about? Did you take part in it?

If not, then this might not be the right discussion for you.

It's the equivelent of taking a person, stopping them from running and walking, and crawling, and going through PS.

That'd be hell bro, it'd take forever to get anywhere.

Exactly where we are at with dueling.

And Rongar is right, we don't want to copy Kotor and the boring clicking action.
This system doesn't accomplish anything, neither player skill, or computer skill, no one duels simply.

I haven't seen a single dev reply in this thread and tell you that you should leave if you don't like the change. There have only been player responses so far.

Wanna know why? Cause they made a mistake and there is no excuse, no backdoors, no loopholes.

WANT THE ANSWER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HERES your answer:

GET rid of Venge's Crap and Revert back to the old system, done.
No offence.
Anyone Agree?

Does an event have to have a big turn out to be good? No. Quite the opposite actually. Your case is not convincing at all. Please don't speak for us all.

I never said that, please explain where i said size of turnout= success rate?

I said we had higher turnout/ Better success rate with our Events.
That's a fact, if you had been at both Gharan's events.

I never said having more people makes you more successfull, and i'm not speaking for you parallo, so stop preaching.

As for Carrie, i didn't understand your post fully, sorry bro.
All i got was, we're busy, and we try to run them when we can.

This is the only volunteer service, which doesn't require member turnout.
Even when i did Public service for my town, for free ofcourse, i had times and places i was expected to be at.

I'd think that maybe someone could coordinate the GM team the same way, with times and places, and goals they need to reach.
Seriously, i've never heard of any other volunteer service, like the PS gm team/dev team.
Even while volunteering i still had requirements, and if i didn't meet them continuously, i was kindly asked to leave, or to help someone who could meet those goals.

And thank you caarrie for respectully responding, i'd speak with your collegues and ask them to hold the same level of respect as you.
I appreciated it alot, thank you. :)

Quote from: lordraleigh on February 10, 2007, 03:24:47 pm
Lets me point that I was making a reference to IC economy. For example I saw pan flutes being sold by 100,000 tria each or even more. Are musical instrument crafting skills so rare in Yliakum that a simple pan flute would cost more than the double of the price of a healthy and trained pterosaur?

Quote from: Planeshift Economy Settings Page
healthy, trained pterosaur - 45,000 trias

Is the crafting of Silverweaves a great secret hidden from everyone by a underground group of smiths that sell them exclusively to the richest rogues?

Why would a horned helmet have an incredibly high value while a chain mail torso doesn't cost more than 2,000 trias?

It's broken IC-wise, there's no way to deny that..



You're 100 percent right.

Theres only 2 answers as i see it:

1) Adapt the settings properly around what we see
2) Explode lol :P :lol: :woot:

Lol i'm just playing for number 2.

Again you're right, prices are OOC Settings wise....
But what can you really do about that?

Maybe give SwSS's to Harnquist to sell for 10k?(stem supply and price by regulation)

Technical Help: IN GAME bugs (after loading world) / Re: Damage

I can't hit any damage since the last server restart. I was able to kill one rogue, but after that, I hit the rogue until it got down to 4.4% health, now I can't do anything to it after nearly 10 minutes of trying. I've tried hitting it with two 5.40 slash swords, and a 6.00 slash dagger, but all my damage keeps failing.

Edit: Oh great. While posting this message, my character crashed, and now I can't login because it says I'm still in combat...I'm never gonna be able to log in again now, and my weapon quality's going to get eaten up. >>

This happens all the time, usually after a server restart, you can't hit NPC's and/or damage them.
You restarting means they probably fixed the problem and are ready to restart the server and allow damage back.

It's nothing to worry about, i say give it 30 minutes max, and it'll be fixed.
It's nothing on your side, if you were worried.

"I agree parallo. It is also a display of how childish Datruth can be. He likes to think he is all that and a bag of chips, but what he fails to realise is he isn't taken seriously when he acts like that. Give thought to his post, he asks. Well my thoughts on it is ...... I think your being an ass for no reason, and you need to check your head."

I am not all that, i've never claimed to be all that, and i'll gladly pay real money if anyone can show me boasting at any time.

Was i the one who called the other an ass?
And what does Akaye mean by, act like that? Like what? Expressing my opinion? What did i say that was so rude? :o
Please quote it for me.
* Datruth waits...
K now that his personal grudge/ accusations / mudslining boat has sailed, lets move on.

"Just keep in mind that the Gm's have to do their events differently from the player events. We have alot more rules we need to consider and we are not just throwing these events for friends, but for the whole community."

The last two player made community wide events:

"Gharin's tourney"
&
"Slavers rp/War"

Had a much higher turnout/Success rate, than any single Gm event has.
That's just the last two.
Don't make me get into Proglin, who magnificently made player tourney's, again, not gm manufactured.

Don't belitle our events by saying they are for friends.... we make community wide events too, much more successfull ones, Without Gm tools or awards.

What i'm trying to explain to Akaye, without him peronally attacking me(ya i failed on that part), is that you need to CATOR to your crowd.
It's Economics 101, no one likes your product if it isn't built properly.

You don't want to host them at times that are convienient for us, that's fine, remember, the events are for US, not gms.
If they were for GM's they'd be at times most convienient for you!

And if you decide to do them sporadically, again, that's YOUR choice, not mine.
Don't expect a huge following to be there though, or any following.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Disclaimer:
And i must note this one more time, i've never boasted myself, ever, i've degraded myself 10 times before a single boast has ever come.
I'll even say that Akaye might have given more to the community than me.

What i find horrible, and rude, is him attacking me, for no reason.
Again, if you ever find me boasting, please list it for me, I've never claimed to be all that and a bag of chips.


If you want to listen to Akaye, that's fine, i'm just asking for an unbiased view, as if our name tags arn't there.
Look at what we've said.
And who makes the most convincing arguement.

I for one, won't degrade myself by calling Akaye a childish ass.

Quote from: Zan on February 10, 2007, 02:43:18 pm
Whenever the community follows them .. it clearly doesn't.

What I don't get is how silverweaves can still be worth so much more than handcrafted weaponry. Personally I'd much rather use handcrafted weapons of a good quality than a silverweave that'll wear out in a matter of days. Sadly the character I use most wields axes and is restricted to very expensive weaponry that isn't worth much. Hence me sticking to Harnquist's cheap alternatives.

You might be smarter in not using the SW's, it might be the best thing to do.

But people can be stupid, and if all they want is SW's, that's all they'll get.
If you start an advertising campaign or something and show them the error of their ways, this may change.

As for Sw's wearing out... i dueled with a pair for 2 months, and it stood at 43/43, still hitting near peak performance.
And if i used the repair bugs i could get it higher.

hardware doesnt matter zan in the truth of it, play the game, my PC isnt the best but I know where the game is less lag and more of it, its a fun game, but dont focus on the bad side because you dont want to be at a disadvantage because of your computer, what about other people? what if their computers are okay, thats good right? let them have their fun, Im telling you a month and a half ago I came into PS and found dueling awesome, got into RP and enjoyed it

Volunds right, if it was all about hardware i'd win nearly all my duels.
That's not it though.

It was about skill plain and simple.
Not who clicked the fastest.

The fastest usually lost.
And the one who was most accurate succeeded.
* Datruth hears
zan whispering something
What'd he say? I'm too busy ignoring him.
Maybe if he'd stop spitting Bs and answer some questions(see weapons price thread) i'd listen to him more often.

And as for roahn... i hate him, but he made a good point, to stop argueing with each other, and address the issue.
I must say, that Shakilai started it by saying we were moaning and whining.
* Datruth rolls the dice..... error*.... oh well :(   :lol: :woot:
