Roleplay? Roleplay!

I\'ve added this page, linked to the About section of the main site. Will be nice if you read it.

/me bows in respect, and hopes for all the freedom to express himself properly to become available without too many difficulties. In the meantime, he starts to gather friends for support, and money for the soon required training and expenses...

Couldn\'t have made it more clear myself

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!

Hopefully, this will help get more people role-playing. I definitely think this should be a required read! Thank you for listening!

i was under the impression that krans werent the wordy type... but interesting none the less.

A perfect and muchly needed addition :) I can\'t seem to locate a link to that page from any of the other pages on the main site, however - thus new players aren\'t likely to stumble upon it unless someone else points it out first. Am I missing it somewhere, perhaps?

What\'s of critical importance is that the character you will create in game is NOT yourself. He is another being with his wills and aims and fears and joys. You have to keep this separation as strong as possible to successfully roleplay.

So true, .. this is the failure I see myself doing to often...

The page is linked in the about section From News, About on the left.

Very cool, thanks :)

Great, a wonderful initiative and addition to the homepage. Hopefully, people will read this and will get a better grasp of what roleplaying is about

Thank you Talad for posting that link.

 I had one guy jump on my familiar the other day and he wouldn\'t stop. So I yelled at him and told him if he didn\'t stop I woud challenge him. His response was.... \"Well it is not like they are real, and I didn\'t hurt it!\" I tried to explain that in PS roleplaying is a big part of the game....I think I might have been talking to a wall.

I will pass this link on to new players in the game. Hopefully this will help them to understand.

Now you must place this writing where everyone will find it and be forced to read it for having nothing better to do... like the update screen. Seriously, I\'m not joking. People will read anything on the update screen.

This is true. At least the first few times. And given that these same first few times the update will usually take long, it may really be a good idea.

Proposal: have the updater display this in a large section, say 80% of the screen space.
Underneath it the rest of what is not in the entire screen would go, above the progress bars but below the text.

Under the moon I completely agree.

Moon! Briliant!

I get so bored when updating I read the files it\'s updating... so... you should definately put it there ^^

He concentrates a bit and thanks to his magic vision, he reaches the Hydlaa plaza.
- \"mmmm... there is still much more to do, but things are surely getting better. Time for some magic!\"

The Kran used magic!!!
It\'s a sign from... the Magic Mugs!!!
