I was meaning you are wearing Heavy Armor and in your desc you say you are wearing a nice leather dress or whatever. Or in another case you have a longsword drawn but in your description it says you are holding a glass bottle or what ever.

What I am saying is that you have your Seduction Weapons in hand OOCly, because you have Dakkrus Curse OOCly, because you died OOCly by a bug. In that case you can say in your description that your seductions are not drawn ICly. It is just my opinions and that is what I agree with.

You maybe roleplaying but you could still be OOC.

I'd like if the effect that seduction weapons have could be moved to other items. Rings, bracers etc.
Having weapon drawn in the city looks ugly, disturbs some people when they see it (and you can't read the description, when someone just runs past). I agree that it's a matter where there are several opinions, but since some people aren't able to accept decisions that are against their own will, we should try to find a workaround where possible.

I do like that idea there Sen. The game use to allow you to look Seduction armours and helms. I do think that has been taken out since.

I think your right, i hate the no-weapon rule.
Once when i was walking along Hydlaa I saw a pack of Green Arangmas inside the city wandering around. So what are we supposed to do? just stand there and get eaten.... Or run away? Since it is illegal to wield weapons. <=== Guards are supposed to keep the city safe and instead there are groups of these things inside killing noobs. Also it is silly because magic isn't banned and someone could easily cast a spell and imediatley kill a person, you can cast spells long range aswell, making it easier not to get caught at all.

Also there are some "bad guys" who are in the city walls, taking your money and killing you (2 months ago at least, there were MANY killings). I don't think my character would be comfortable walking around hydlaa without a weapon, thank god she knows magic! But what about the noobies? are they just supposed to be killed without a fight? and where were the guards during this time? They just appear when somoene is finally killed, or the event has ceased, and what do they do? write notes.

IMO weapons should be allowed to be wielded IG just for now, until there are actually more gurads to help the city get safer (Or actually moving guards, its just silly when a murder was held infront of Jefecra).

Read the  Octarchal decree offensive magic is also against the law inside of cities.

Yes if Mobs have been lead inside the city you can kill the mobs. Mobs inside the city are OOC since the guards would stop them IC'ly. Also in a case of self defense you can draw your weapons and defend yourself.

From just that bit of info, sounds like bad RP to me, as it is totally ignoring the fact the NPC is there.

funny to see that the Planeshift community still has the same landlord attitude of ruling each other what to wear. will there be also a rule that forbids to walk without pants in the cities?

Similarly, its funny to see people who can't understand the concept of in-character.

Yes if Mobs have been lead inside the city you can kill the mobs. Mobs inside the city are OOC since the guards would stop them IC'ly. Also in a case of self defense you can draw your weapons and defend yourself. 

So you're saying about 2 weeks before I was banned a bunch of Ulbernauts, Mulbernauts, Velnaut, and Consumers. So happen to appear in the fountain in Hydlaa Plaza. If GMs want to make an event on monsters attacking Hydlaa you might want to get a few Hydlaa Guard characters out of the closets.  :)

@Maisent, if anyone threatens you or anything you are allowed weapons drawn for self defence. Or if you are a innocent person you would shout out for a guard and OOCly /tell a GM to come on a Hydlaa Guard alt. The reason why they have the rule is to stop baddies from running around killing people, to make them look more obvious.

Similarly, its funny to see people who can't understand the concept of in-character.

Funny is not quite the right word. :(

If there were more enforcement on this rule, then the amount of deaths due to choking will skyrocket.
