Title: You might be a noob if ...
Post by: Rigwyn on November 06, 2009, 01:47:23 am
With the server down and people getting antsy I think its a good time for a forum game. This is meant as light hearted fun so please don't anyone take offence :)

You migt be a noob if ...

- You think the guild you and 4 newcommers that you started yesterday will take over all of yliakum.
- You think people are clueless because they wonder how you knew their name
- You think that some characters have amazing twisty 4 pointed hairstyles
- You you think that you the first person to stand in the deathrealm with a diaboli and claim to be satan

You might be a noob if you repeatedly fall of the same spot in the death realm.
You might be a noob if you mistake the Marfusang for a Tefusang and charge in.
You might be a noob if you believe putting furniture in a public map creates your own guildhouse.
You might be a noob if you base your estimations of other's strengths on their examinations.
You might be a noob if you describe yourself as an invisible ghost with wings and demonic arrows.
You might be a noob if you believe kran's to be stupid on point.
You might be a noob if you wear full plate armor and a battle helmet while mining. (Clearly, no miner would do this, as it is completely impractical and unhealthy. And we've all done it).

You might be a noob if.... you use two rock picks
Title: Re: You might be a noob if ...
Post by: Rigwyn on November 06, 2009, 04:21:55 am

- you find yourself in the death realm becaise you failed to outrun a consumer

what's a grue?
Title: Re: You might be a noob if ...
Post by: steuben on November 06, 2009, 11:11:28 pm
no one knows... or atleast no one has survived that has seen one. but the bits of lore that surround it are:

The grue is a sinister, lurking presence in the dark places of the earth. Its favorite diet is adventurers, but its insatiable appetite is tempered by its fear of light. No grue has ever been seen by the light of day, and few have survived its fearsome jaws to tell the tale.

You might be a noob if you walk into the sparkling red circle in the DR and think it will warp you out.

You might be a noob if you were born in Gugrontid and wander yourself all the way to the bronze doors, then think about quitting the game shortly before falling in a canyon, finding yourself in the dark realm, and  check out the first sentence!

Yeah...im guilty of this! :oops:

You may be a noob if ... you go around right clicking on boxes and drawers thinking that you might find something inside.
You may be a noob if ... you need to stop to catch your breath 10 times between hydlaa and Oja ( well, this may change soon XD )
You may be a noob if ... you need to team up with 3 other players to kill a rogue
You man be a noob if ... your too weak to carry 16 rat eyes at once.
You may be a noob if ... when out of stamina you say in main "smoking..." 
You may be a noob if ... you think that increasing your magic skill to level 3 or 4 will make a significant difference

You may be a noob if ... you need to sit down for 15 minutes and wait for your health and stamina to restore because you cannot afford healing potions and you have no magic skills yet.

About the female Ynnwn bending:

That's either backache ... or headbanging ... or sneezing?! -- I used to call "Bless you" when this animation was new.

...

You are a noob if the repetitive idle animations make you nervous still. :P

Especially the ankle scratching Dermorians ... dermatophyte (foot-shrooms)? -- The more often you see them, the easier you can ignore them.

Post by: Luzino on November 16, 2009, 01:58:23 pm
You might be a noob if... you wonder why no other players can be seen in a MMORPG. OK, it's only the tutorial, but it looks like a town, so where is everyone???

You might be a noob if... on your first visit to the Bronze Doors you think: "Ah, here's a guard, surely he is guarding the path to that place", squeeze through between two posts of the fence (why couldn't they leave a bit more space for passing???) and die from falling down.  (I'm actually guilty of that. LOL)

You might be a noob if... you then think: "OMG - I died, do I have to start from scratch now? All that character creation and tutorial AGAIN???"

[ I have to laugh at the comments about the animations .. I still react to them funny sometimes .. especially those funny looks that Yilians and male Dwarves give you. Still a noob I guess :) ]

You might be a noob if ... You spend an hour or two trying to figure out how to get some decent maps out of Jayose.
You might be a noob if ... You try to "/lay down "   or  "/recline"  like a Kran.
You might be a noob if ... You treat the respawning tria in the plaza fountain as a source of income 
You might be a noob if ... You return to this post and report that there are no trias in the fountain :)

You might be a noob if you still get the gate to Ojaveda and the gate to the Bronze Doors confused, and go the wrong way. (I am still a victim of this  :sweatdrop:)
Title: Re: You might be a noob if ...
Post by: bendad123 on November 19, 2009, 11:43:20 pm
You might be a noob if you go all the way to ojaveda then fall off a big mountain just before arriving and have to go through the death realm then start over on your journey.

You might be a noob if you think that someone going the secret entrence out of the death realm accidently went that way.

You might be a noob if you yell "aw man!" when you accidently find the way out of the death realm.

You might be a noob if you think that Gungrontid is a clearing because that is what the sign points to.

When trying to roll dice you type in /die roll.
You chose to be a klyros thinking you could fly.
You don't even know how to mine. (guilty as charged)
You got killed by an Oja kikiri. (It was evil >.<)
You kill rats all day and wonder why you are not gaining any levels.
You wander all over the death realm's library all day trying to find the way out.
You chose to be a dawrf. (lol jk)
You wonder why people are acting like their character.
If your client keeps crashing for forgetting to type in the code and turn off VBO.

Title: Re: You might be a noob if ...
Post by: Syenna on January 02, 2010, 11:52:58 pm
You might be a noob if you wonder what the hell is wrong with the game when your swords that you've whittled down to 1q without noticing won't hit anything, and/or wonder when the NPC's got so tough when your armor has gotten just as shabby (guilty of both here ^^; ).

You might be a noob if you frantically run around yelling: "Where's the ulbernaut pit? I want to kill one!" on the first day.
You might be a noob if you are surprised that you don't go right back to Hydlaa after you die.
You might be a noob if you think that East Hydlaa is Ojaveda and that the north tower is the Bronze Doors.
You might be a noob if you try to /bend like the Ynwwn women do.

If you do those things, you might want to  :surrender: on this game.

Aye, yeh might be eh noob if yeh talk like a pirate or yeh call everyone 'me hearty'.
You might be a noob if you think your not because you were accepted into a noob guild with a cool name.
You might be a noob if you think that the trick to *winning* is to out-godmod the other player until he/she gives up.

If you talk like a l33t g33k,
if you claim to be a slayer of psi rats, beholders, dragons and bugbears and stone golems,
If you are invincible to all magical, physical,chemical and pschological  attacks,
if you have eyes in the back of your head or steel skin,
if you your name is Skeletor, He-Man, Pikachu, Mojo Jojo, Legolas or Merlin,
if you and your character are one and the same,
if you are surrounded by a magical pink and blue aura of sparkely healing energy that protects you and your friends from all harm,

You might .. just might... be a noob.

And I am not sure where exactly you see a reason to complain wrong grammar. But I am not a native english speaker either.

Sorry, just a little pay back for trying to embarrass me :D But in English, you would say Ojarian kikiri instead of Ojaveda kikiri.

You may also be a noob if you don't use quotes   :devil:

Luckily for you I'm seldom playing this game and when I log it's to play with a limited number of people. And if I wanted to play more I couldn't because your new client crashes way too much to be bearable. ;)
I'm in the forums because nobody bothers removing the account I set for deletion 4 months ago (no wonder, I set another for deletion 2 years ago and it's still active). Can't be arsed to make a new account but as long as it's here whenever I please I just have to activate it and post, and I do it because I like reading posts like yours. :P

Though some things never change... Staff members asking people to go away and play something else will never stop here. ;)
In fact there's no need to do that, enough already leave without any of such help. XD

There is no thing such as the eternal truth. I have my opinion and you have yours. We aren't going to agree, so there's no need to discuss it.

you might be a noob also if you insist to use and be around something you dislike so much. Even more when you despise hours of free work put by various people.

If you ask me, it's you despising the work by misusing it to make another (failed) WoW clone, which is not what PS is announced as.
Besides, when I play it's to get in touch with the few people I like in PS, and even if the previous words make it obvious, yes, they aren't anywhere else but in PS so I don't get a chance if I wanted to choose.

You might be a noob if you don't learn to not spit where you eat.

What's wrong with some sauce?
But none of these have anything to do with being a noob. If you wanted to plain insult me you could just have called me moron and done. ;)
Not that it would have been news to me. XD

and yes... if you remove the game mechanics from a multiplayer game with a chatbox... you have irc.

Two maxed chars and my last main at lvl 82 Blue Way, that's how much I would like to remove the game mechanics. But I'm used to empty arguments when dealing with these forums, keep them coming if you please. Game mechanics should be made to support RP, not vice versa.

(btw it works great on computer which run recent games and with proper hardware)

Actually doesn't, Fallout 3 runs better here than PS. And crashes or invisible dynamic models don't have to do with performance.

i'll explain you

sorry, he is. Learn the setting and you actually qualify for the noob status for saying bs.

You make a poor job at explaining it then. I still don't get what you mean although it could be only because of my evidently low IQ. But I accept your apologies. ;)

Ah, Lhaa, you return from the pits of hypocrisy to strike again.

If people are entitled to their own opinion, why do you make posts that isolate all opinions opposite to your own as "noob", implying inferiority, then you get pissy and take it personally when they respond?

PlaneShift does not announce itself as an RP-Nazi cesspit. You might be a noob if you think your kind of behaviour is acceptable.

People don't learn by being put down, they just harden against whatever was being imposed on them through the putdowns. It turns into a world/server-wide conflict, and all of a sudden, American dumbasses rule the world, and a whole list of ideals are suddenly old fashioned and out the window as "savage".

I do hope you have the intelligence to see the various references to RL in my post.

Rigwyn started this thread with the words: "With the server down and people getting antsy I think its a good time for a forum game. This is meant as light hearted fun so please don't anyone take offence". Seems some people doesn't understand what he wrote there.

You might be a noob if after the latest changes you still consider PS a RP game.

In fact I was a bit shocked when I checked PS out once again after a long while - if you want me to pick a single point of the ones above: Heck, Gossip-channel is default? My first impression having seen this (and its content) was "Wow, this provides everything but immersion!", and 'everything' includes a spectrum from pre-pubertal silly comparisons that let me doubt of the community's maturity, to arranging stuff OOCly which could have been subject for coherent RPs.

@Akkaido: Refering to very most of your posts around, did you ever get in touch with the settings? Being a one-eyed among blinds doesnt make that one seeing.

I left PS when its continuous decay took away my hope for any improvement at some point. I joined one RP-server of a kind of hated game (here, that is) and I can only recommend to introduce the same restriction to PS as that server has: Have future players apply for an account first and get a picture of those ones before having this "immersive world" owned by 'noobs'.
PlaneShift is definitely a promising game. Its technical standards might not be top notch, but sufficient for its demands. Considering the last years however, I would think that insisting on "players are nothing but testers" and "PS is nothing more than alpha or a tech-demo" would provide the responsible people with the freedom to invite everyone since people are required to test the game, but without at least a soft enforcement of the game's RP-aspect that same one will become noncredible with the result that players seriously looking for roleplaying games would rather turn away again while leveling- and dueling-focused players would stay.
Some restrictions to filter out roleplayers certainly could make some of those points above obsolete and have less noobs around.

Now you are unfair... Playing sulky is not mature either. Especially now after you gave up on it.

My point of criticizm is that some people seem to really seek out threads they can turn into flame wars - and that others are unable to follow the only useful rule to avoid it: "Don't feed the trolls".

One may start wondering if we have too few or too lazy board moderators. Who knows. Personal opinions... Maybe I am already fuddy-duddy, with twice the age of the average noob here?!
