Title: Hi everyone!
Post by: Severed Hope on December 20, 2002, 09:09:50 pm: I am just now looking at the website, and gonna DL the game after i read a bit about it :: i just wanna know if a lot of people play here, or not? The forum has tons of replies so that looks promising... ^_^

Edit: i was under the impression I could buy this on-line 0_0 now im not sure where one goes to get it... *hides back in the FAQ*

The current tech demo is Atomic Blue, which has been around for quite a while now - you won\'t find many people actually on there.

Your best bet is to wait a little while for the iminent next release - Molecular Blue - which will have a host of improvements and loads of people will be logged on to see it.

Unfortunately these are only tech demos, so no actual \'real\' playing goes on, just exploring, chatting etc. But it\'s cool to see things developing - look forward to seeing you there :D

EDIT: PS is a completely free project, you can download it here (http://www.planeshift.it/download_client.html), but like I said you\'re better off waiting for a few weeks till the next release.

Post by: Severed Hope on December 20, 2002, 10:06:37 pm: oooh, ok. I\'ll wait then. 40 megs is a lot for something that doesn\'t work yet ^_^

Yeah, it\'s a free download. that rocks. I\'ll definately be around the forums, and i hope to see the next version soon when it comes out.

I hope it actually *does* come out tho -- unlike Blizzard and their (going on a year and 4 months now) mystery patch for diablo X(

:))

Maybe if I stay around long enough i\'ll get a better idea of what kind of game this is going to be ^_^

Post by: Kiern on December 20, 2002, 10:35:17 pm: Kada is a she ( :P ), and she\'s jsut calmer then most people are ;)

Post by: Kada-El on December 20, 2002, 11:25:31 pm: Hehe, yeah just figured that it has been a while since I answered a post like that and figured that it must be my turn ;)

Kiern\'s right, you\'re just lucky that it wasn\'t Link\'s turn :D

Post by: acraig on December 21, 2002, 12:35:57 am: Maybe this should go into the main PlaneShift FAQ since almost everybody comes up with that question :)

Q: Is that Kada-El in her sig?
A: No, but you can always pretend it is.

:)

Post by: Link on December 21, 2002, 12:57:20 am: Yeah kada-el has pointy ears.

Post by: Wormtail_ on December 21, 2002, 03:56:21 am: Welcome to the forums, Severed Hope! That\'s an interesting name, too.... Better than mine, but I\'ll stick with a \'Wormtail\' in my name as... tradition. :P

Anyways, it\'s good to see that you read the FAQ! I don\'t think much people do, from what I\'ve read. As long as you don\'t just hide in there and actually read what\'s there, then I\'m happy. I think. Anyways, welcome!

Post by: Severed Hope on December 21, 2002, 08:09:31 am: My screen name... very interesting actually.

Im not a grim sort of guy, but i got this name through my girlfriend:

She is japanese, and used to have some STRANGE ideas about the english language... she sprung this sentence on me once:

\"Hopefully all are severed from it\" -- and by that she meant, \"I\'d like some more tea, please\"

Don\'t ask. It was early in the morning, and she has morning-brain-yawn-syndrome.

Anyway, I get Severed Hope from her ^_^ I used to be \"Aardvark\" before I met kieko!

--
Nah I only read about half of the FAQ. I read stuff up as I need them. Ussually. ^_^

Post by: Severed Hope on December 22, 2002, 08:14:19 am: I was serious about the females! LOL

Thats the only thing besides RPG\'s and my Books I am serious about!!

Post by: Pheonix on December 22, 2002, 05:23:43 pm: Ok hello new person

additionally I think for the sake of saving her time Kada should add something to the effect of not my real pic to her signature and to the BBB.
Title:
Post by: Vengeance on December 24, 2002, 07:31:30 am: I don\'t understand... what is it about the pointed ears and chain mail that makes anyone think it is a real pic?

Let\'s give it a rest and allow Kada to roleplay her virtual hottie as she sees fit...

Meanwhile, in the LOTR movies, are those Arwen\'s real ears? Maybe she should hang a sign around her neck saying they\'re not... ;-)

Post by: Smurflor on June 03, 2003, 11:54:10 am: :P :P Of course women have pointy ears.. it helps them catch gossip, its like a paper spike on your desk, useful for stabbing your notes (or your hairy palm) onto...
(NB what do you mean that \'normal\' people dont have hairy palms???)
