Wish list / Buddy list add request.
« on: April 13, 2007, 11:20:50 pm »
Thru other posts i have posted, i have come up with an idea for the buddy list.

My idea is that instead of allowing any smoe to add you without a reason, why not make the adding of a buddy require that person being added to be informed that they have been added. Also, the person being added must allow the person adding them to add them, either using a simple yes/no pop-up like the trade request and duel challenge, or thru some random new method. Any person with Yahoo Im, knows what im talking about, and im sure that other Im's use this method as well (just not all).

The reason i find it needed in the game is due to just plain privicy. What if i dont want someone to know im online? Currently anyone can add anyone, and i have added person's just to see if they are logged on at a certain time or another.

another feture could be a thing like the yahoo im where you can request to be "invisible" or appear offline when you are infact online.

I would also like it so that if you remove a person from your buddy list, and they have you on thiers, that your name will be removed from thiers as well.

Another intresting addition would be to have a list of who has you on thier buddy list, could be a sub-window from the buddy list, veiwable thru /cmd such as "/buddy_added_window".

Complaint Department / Name changes by gm being against Naming policy
« on: April 12, 2007, 10:12:54 pm »
I happen to name a few bad player names almost everytime i log on, however i notice that the names giving around arnt that friendly with the naming polcy. Naming polcy stats something along the lines of "Your name can not be composed of words or verbs, adjectives" Names such as Razorclaw, Goldsmith, and countless others are infact against namming policy. Though i do not know about Razorclaw being renamed to that i know for sure that Goldsmith was. Are last names exsempt from the rules then? And while im on the subject, why is it that older players who managed to sneak by with a name like Funny Shorts are allowed to keep thier names becuase they managed to run past you gms? Surly this shouldnt be alloud. A bad name should be changed reguardless of amount of time spent ingame. I dont agree with this policy of allowing those who sneaked past the gms long enough to be rewarded with keeping thier names intact even though i am SURE that a person would not have such a name, or even a name such as Tibey Tibey or Mot Mot (same first and last name). A complete overhual is seems is needed of the naming policy. I have since stopped reporting bad names since half of them have "been playing for awhile now" - Nameless gm/s.

Complaint Department / Name change policy complaint.
« on: April 12, 2007, 09:46:03 pm »
I am sorry to complain about a game i play so often but i thing it needs to be said, if only for the slight, remote, near impossible chance that i will affect something in a positive manner.

My complaint...
I am not allowed to have my name changed.

Reason Givin by gm.
"Its not allowed, only the sir name can be changed when divorced"

Reason for wanting said name change.
My char. Bartholin has been plagued by harrasment by well.. "those peoples" (ooc like) and thus his name (my name) has been ruined, aka im now considered a Theft, vandle, rapist, outlaw, hethen... the list goes on. Why you may ask i am considered these? Players find it funny to seek revenge when they dont get 1k tra for a dagger or 2m tria on shield, or allowed to kill me in a duel or allowed the challenge me when im busy in an rp. Basic childish Bull&^$*.

I asked a gm (who i spose i wont name) told me that i could INFACT have a name change as long as it suited rp rules (or something like that), after i did a huge rp envolving my wife being kidnapped and resueded and me being killed off (allowed for reasons stated above) I was then told that i can not infact change my name even for the stated reasons. It being with in rp relms, (Bartholin dieing er.. killed) Would it not be kosher to have it be changed?

I relize that gms are busy, and that it being able to have your name changed when ever you want would be very BAD idea for rp and revenge type reasons. However, i think i have ample reason to have my name changed. I do not beleave that i should have to delete my account i worked hard on and make another one, just becuase i didnt let someone kill me, or i didnt pay an extra 5k on an item werth only 100 tria.

I do not have irc, so i can not contact gms online, i know gm rulings are not wished to be posted, however, this post should be looked into, reviewed, and with some luck a name change policy should arrive out of it. I ran a search and found nothing sim. to my case, though admittled i did not look at every page. I could not find a name CHANGE policy, but only the naming policy, which just to move my name change further along states "Dont name your charecter after anything that might be found offensive" (something along the lines of that) and as such i did find something for Bartholin. :D just run a search in google for Bartholin (or Bartholin cyst) Also Thomas Bartholin is a real person and I am named after him ;). If a gm is willing to change my name for me, plz contact me for i do have a name already lined up, or talk to me ingame.

Please dont hate me :( i just hate being chased after cuz someone said i said/did something i didnt do. (Its hard to report a group of ppl when they use alts and noone tells you who told them) /rant,post

B/g story if your intrested...



Talite is an ex slave and was freed by Bartholin and they became friends, and then soon after they got close one night. In the morning they were married...

due to many attempts on his wife's life, bartholin ran into many people that knew of the dark arts and fought much. One day, his wife went missing and hadnt returned for 3 days. He was soon given a letter that his wife was kidnapped and embarked on a jounry to safe her from her holders. Blood and death followed and after almost 2 days he rescued her from the kidnappers. The next day she turned up missing again, fearing the worst he collected his friends and contacts and searched for her. Along the way to akkio he was given another letter this one read that his wifes mind was erased and that all memoris of him were removed from her, he knew of only one person that had a grudge strong enough and the knowledge of the dark ways to do such a thing. He ran his fastest to akkio and ran into her, a fenki named Fithile that had relations with his wife just prior to him removing her from the picture. After a short time of exchanging threats his wife appeared, a fenki name Talite that he loved very much. She came to her masters side and drew a dagger agaisnt her husband. Bartholin nearly heart broken retreated and planned a way to save his beloved wife.

A week later he recieved information that the two seperated for the day and his wife was heading to hydlaa for some items for a potion and the lazy fenki Fithile stayed in akkio waiting on her servent. Bartholin quickly hurried to Akkio and fought the evil fenki, but not before Talite arrived with the items. As fithile layed wounded by Bartholin's blades she started to cast one last spell. Bartholin quickly shoved Talite out of the way and was hit by the spell. Thankfully his armor was made with silver threads in the metal to help protect against such evil ways, but Bartholin was injured.

When Bartholin woke that night he saw the still, dead, lifless body of fithile, and with it he saw a glyph of unknown origin in her hand. He got up and grabbed it puttin it in his pocket, took one last look at his dead foe and gave her one last kick in the chest.

Bartholin consulted with many of his contacts asking the were abouts of his wife, and of any information that might be had about the unknown glyph. A few months pasted with out much gain, untill he asked a newcommer to the land about his glyph who told him of many things that the glyph did, and of its powers. He also told him of a way to get his wife back, but at a terrible cost to his life IF he truly loved her.

As bartholin walked along the akkio road, one of his old friends asked about his wife and why she was a slave to a master. After some discussion and chatter, he again when to the accurssed city of akkio, and found his wife huddled in rags inside a abandoned building. He sat at the tavern and thought about what he was going to do, all the time thinking of the price that he would have to pay if he used the spell.

He was told that the spell would give the the caster complete controll over the target and that an addtional affect would be that when the user died, the target would be tortured untill they whet insane, or killed themselfs. The spell leaves a mark on the victom that looks like nothing you can describe, a mark of death if you will, for who ever used this spell or was affected by the spell would die, or so the stories go...

Bartholin made up his mind and found Talite out, he also contacted her master whom was her master before she met him. He exchanged words with her master and bought her from him in order to prevent anyone from abusing his wife like a slave. Talite had no memeries of Bartholin and when she heard that Bartholin had bought her, threatened him, and made attacks on him. So to play the part of a slaver Bartholin cast the cursed spell on her, and made her obediant so that she could be saved from something more toruruse then what she would face being a slave.


Summary to shorten reading  -

then she gets her memery back from Fithile, she having returned from dr and loving ever second of the news about Bartholin and Talite. Talite ran off for a week or so and fithile disappeared. Some time later they met up and talked about what went on and all was forgiven by Talite, thought Bartholin still hated what he did to her and decided that he had to correct it. Bartholin figures a way to remove the mark from Talite but the price of removing the mark is being sent away to the abyss (not dr) in which you cant return and you will forever be in againy. Bartholin buys some elixars from levrus that will help him become strong. The elixar is a potion that is thick and black (like tar) and smells like rotting corspes in the sun. The potions come in a flask that has a symbole ingraved into it. The potion weakens the connection of the drinker to the world and thus weakens the affects of the mark spell. But will weaken the drinker to the point of not even beable to walk much less fight.

[ as seen in the plaza by a few that paid attention like Vigel a drop of the liquid will kill the grass near harns leving a black spot about the size of a meter.}

Some time later Bartholin made his first attempt at removing the mark from his wife, but due to his weakend stat he couldnt complete it.. but managed to weaken the mark's hold on the body of his wife.

The second time he tried to remove the mark, he stopped drinking the elixars and was strong enought o remove the mark, but in doing so, sealed his fate. {being sent to the abyss at the point the crystals energy is at its strongest the end of its cycle.{like the phases of the moon}

Bartholin could feel the affects of the mark eating away his energy and after a night with Talite he decided that instead of doing nothing about it, that he would stop the effect and live with talite just like she wanted. So that night after being with Talite in the library with in the death realm, Bartholin looked around at some of the old texts with in the old building as Talite sleept. After some time of looking around the book keeper come over to him and handed him a book and then left without saying a word. Bartholin opend the text at a marked page and on that page he saw the mark that was now burnt into his flesh. The book was in a form he could read and decided to have it translated by a friend that might know such things.

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

Okay.. basicly the point of the rp is to help the group find all the items needed before Bartholin (played by whoelse but me :) } dies and is sent to the abyss (in the b/g story).

A translation of the list needed to make the potion will be posted as soon as it is done. (cant give you a flat out list.. like go find 3 ulber claws ^^ )

anyone can join in the rp, the ones the like barth and wish to save him.. and those that dislike Barth and wish to inpede the progress of the collection of items.

In-Game Roleplay Events / A call to arms OOC thread
« on: January 08, 2007, 03:26:16 am »
[OOC can i remind everyone this fight will be Enki only we raeched this agreement to end the RP and bury it forever for various reasons, NO none Enki will fight against the Dermorians unless they actually win in which case everyone is welcome to kill them off for good, also i think ojaroad2 would be a perfect spot for this event but we will all reach that decision.]

really? well how about this?

[ OOC ]
hey guy's,
a few people for various reasons want an end to this rp, this is an invitation for anyone who wants to be involved in it's demise, it seems only proper that the setting for a final battle should be the home of the oppressed enkidukai...Ojaveda, even though the focus race for the battle is enki because it's basically thier fight for freedom with the ammount of mixed marriages and friendships anyone can lend thier support. it might help in bringing a few guilds closer together in a common interest.it's a suberb chance to have some good rp so if you wish to give a little support please come along, the meeting will be held on Sunday 21st at 20.00 GMT in Oja. You can reply here or contact me, Nefert, Alliva or Edicho in game for more details. we are trying to raise an army of enki for this.

 ;D
[all ooc]

how to play---
You will be set up in a small group, no more then ten. You each roll dice [/roll 1 6] the one with the lowest number in the group is removed from the group and sent away  ;D , the one with the highest number [out of 6] wins the group pot (if any items, tria were betted).

Repeat rolls --
Only if a win / loss will be decided by rerolling. so for example the clear lower rolled a 2 and the clear winner rolled the 6.. and you and another got 4.. no reroll will happen.

repeat roll b-
when deciding a win/ loss, the 2+ rollers that rolled the same number will then reroll for the win/ loss. same rules apply highes number wins.. lowest number losses.


Betting -
okay, by defualt when you lose you lose your "ticket" that means that you are removed from the match. BUT this is a dice match, so feel free to bet some items, tria or w/e. Not everyone has to bet more money, infact even if the bet is 1m tra per player/round you can throw your ticket in the pot for the roll.

ex..
player 1-5 bets 2k, player 6 can bet a sw ss (hehe.. if they want to), player 7 bets his ticket,"to expensive for me".
same rules follow.. highest roller wins the loot, lowest is removed from the game. (so yes.. you can infact loose many times.. as long as you dont roll the lowest number  ;D )

Cheating-
ANY attempts at cheating will result in expulsion if the tounry, and all rights to ANY prizes removed.

This includes fake dice rolls
[ /say Bartholin has rolled a 6 sided dice for a 6!]

shouting and spamming/ flooding
 [> rolled a 6
  > rolled a 5
hey guys.. sup?
talk to me
hello?
HEY!      ]

Not paying a bet-
self explainitory i would think.. you wager something..and loose the bet.. o well.. its gone.. none paying betters will be asked to hand over item/s if not.. a gm will be notified and you will be dealt with.
*edit-
Make sure to tell ME.. the host about it.. though im sure i can hear you guys yelling.

trying to sneek in-
i have "bouncers"  ;D they have the list.. infact its posted.. try to disrupt the event.. your gone. BUT, you are aloud to watch.. and have some drinks ;) you just cant play :(.

Chatting-
The area that we have picked out has another close to it, and large chats will happen thier, all unlisted or removed entrants can relax there, or, if your sick of betting for now you can go thier as well.
Limit the chatter in the game area though, as it will clog the channel and disrupt others "seeing" the dice land :). again, failure to move when asked will result in removale.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Raffle
You do not have to be present on the day or time to win in the raffle, all items are being held by the bank and will be held for a period no longer the 1 week.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
HAVE FUN!
