Janners Way

[Phinehas]

Can't say I agree with you, but I do suppose it's up to you to decide how you want your guild to be viewed.

Good show on not being offended. I heartily approve. There is nothing duller than someone who tries to justify himself every time a suggestion is made.

Hi Planeshifters,
we worked hard in the past month to provide an update to the current PS release. The update will be ready in the next few days, and while you?re waiting we?ll give you a little insight into what it contains.

........... This change really requires that we proceed with the famous WIPE of characters, so everyone will start from the beginning with the new rules.

Yes, well, good for you. Quite frankly, I don\'t think anyonce cares about this organisation one way or the other. It\'s not big enough, or well-organized enough, or original enough, or old enoough to even be worth arguing about, so...

Basically, some *ahem* \"newbie\" comes along and starts something half-baked. If he enjoys it, good for him. If a few more people like it, good for them. However, I would try and stay out of the spotlight as people don\'t take kindly to their time being wasted with threads such as this. Don\'t expect a lot of sympathy.

I really must applaud the fact that it seems to be at least somewhat RP-oriented though. Good for you.

Might want to change the name, though. Not many people are interested in joining a guild that\'s named after the leader.

 How time flies and yes I am still hear and yes still called Janners Way smiles.

 Stay out of the spot lght never found one in game to stand under grins.

[Janner]

Very simple I  do things my way my members do it there way grins

[Janner]

To Start with welcome to my little tips page.

 1. If you have mining skill you will need a pick[ buy from Harnquist ] ( he trains mining as well ) in main town or Toda in Ojaveda. ( 100 tria = money )
 Then you need to find where to dig; for gold the Magic shop is a good place to look, to dig type /dig gold.

 2.To equip something in your inventory  [I on keyboard]  click it drag it to place it goes and click to place it there.

 3a. To fight, right click on target then click crossed swords from icons that pop up.
 3b. To fight normal click on target then go to info box [ the small one with time in it and coloured bars ] and click third icon from left to normal attack. ( putting your pointer on icons will tell you what they do. )

 4a. To Loot right click target after killing click the moneybag icon. ( double normal click on target same as right click )
 4b. Or you can type /loot.

 5. Quests. To get one, say to NPC [ blue name ]
 A. give me job.
 B. give me quest.
 C. may i help you.

 6. To set a Shortcut Open by clicking on  axe icon then on an empty window right click to open and type what you need. (commands for this are in help icon.( ? )

 7. To Pick up an item type /target next nearest item.. then type /pickup.

 8. To trade with someone right click them then click  the box in hand icon. drag item from right to left then click moneybag top left to complete.

 9. To Train first find the trainer you need if a NPC has a book icon then they train something, click on skill to train then moneybag to pay for it, keep doing this till you see a message saying you can train no more, it is time to go practice your skill to finish training.

10. To Drink or eat open inventory  [I on keyboard ]  click it drag it to your picture and let go.

11. To do a Action for example bows or nod or points. type /me bows or nods or points.

12. lag Most common cause is music, so turn off in pssetup if you are suffering from this, also it is a cause of many crashes.

 13.To set Options click on the icon in row of icons, next to quit icon. Added thanks to zanzibar.

 14. To find commands click on  help icon.( ? )

 15. There is a Help channel for advice but please don't ask how to do or what to say regarding quests.

 16. if you get stuck and cant move try typing /unstick only do it once or you will end up in Death Realm, and if you fall in pit there type /die Puts you back to start of Death Realm.

  17. One button mouse . open options go to mouse next to ContexMenu click on SET. then save, gives right click on normal click.

  18.  Repair weapon. To do this you need a weapons repair kit, buy from Smithy. Hold weapon in right hand type  /repair.

Thanks, being a Mac user I found 17. to be a useful tip.

[Ozydias]

We have now started a guild quest of the week.  There will be many interesting quests and role play events to come.  We hope to hold one atleast every week and have prizes also!

[Janner]

Just to give you a Idea of what can be done, here is the first three quests given to guild.

 Go to Trasok. open buy window.

clue, 1-1 = W. Think of _ =

list of items i want.

1-5 1-6 1-2 4-14 2-2 2-4 4-13 3-8 2-2 1-2.
3-6 1-1 3-7 2-1 1-4 1-4 3-9 1-2 3-1.
1-5 1-4 1-2 1-6 1-1 1-2 1-3 1-4 1-5 1-6 1-7.
1-1 2-13 3-8.

 Take a screenshot of your character on the highest point you can find in the planeshift world. It can be on mountains, buildings, or anywhere that you think is the highest that you can get your character. Post your screenshots here.


  find the NPC that says this : Vigesimi by the people's will in the fourth generation of succession. My father disappeared while I was still young and the duty to hold the fortress to the bronze doors and with it the protection over Yliakum against the vicious creatures from the stonelabyrinths fell upon me. It is now and shall remain a great honor to serve the people of Yliakum.

I want full name and location. Or a screenshot.

Examples of three ways to help.
 Thing to remember when advising is you have 3 mins to answer from time of asking. If you think you need to claim the question because it requires a long answer; DON'T because you only get 30 secs to answer after claiming.

IN ADVICE (Help Channel)
As this example shows you may need more than one answer, so be prepared.

(20:12:51) Player asks: why isn't my 'health' increasing??
(20:14:42) You advise: move one or two steps some times it get stuck if no luck there try a heal spell or potion, if still no luck try a restart
(20:15:15) Player asks: I've already tried restart
(20:15:53) You advise: potion or heal or move ?
(20:16:25) Player asks: not yet for potion/heal but move yes
(20:17:17) Janner says: if you cant heal yourself ask a passer by if they will do it for you
