 If you guys think i\'m taking this game too seriously, fine. But really, marriges on a video game?? I think that\'s a topic above all, should be taken seriously....its real people people!

 If it were my choice, there would be no marriages....

 My final word on this post....

 Karyuu, I know about those kinds of cultures, but about 90% of us aren\'t living in those kinds of cultures....

all I have to say is...


killing on a computer game? murdering is a serious issue ... its real people behind the screens.. *roll eyes*

OK thats my point made.

Sheesh.  Take a basic anthropology course when you get the chance.

 And out of all the other opening phrases, you had to JUST tell me to go to class? Why can\'t you just leave it at \"I think you are wrong and here are the reasons why\"

 Anyways, now reading on your posts, I guess i\'m admiting, I may be wrong. (I am saying this now because I know if I don\'t confess people will not stop quoting me) True, it is a game, though I am strongly agaisnt marriage altogether, I suppose this \"multi-marriage\" idea is probaly ok, it\'s only a game right? Now you little boys (or girls) can play house with your partners and have little marriages with each other and exchange fake words of love to each other through a video game because you can\'t get any in real life!!!!!(note to sarcasm, returning the favor zanzibar ; ))

Well that is wonderful in theory but there are more males in Yliakum than females. So the females following one male poses a problem........

So how about we switch it around, *chuckles* how about the females lead a pack of males?

That is because all of mine stay at home so that the rest of this devilish world will not shatter their little bit of hope on life.  j/k

more males enkis than females? is there an actual list, census like thing somehwere or that was just something you noticed while walking around yiliakum? I always wondered what was the ps world population most common/rarer species, professions, wepons of choice etc, you know a census of the current inhabitants of the stalactite

Not all marriages are built on love.  Not all marriages even involve love by design.

In-game relationships are a double-edged sword.  Some people use it as an effective roleplay device to further a story - other people use online games as their own personal 1-900-NASTY-TEXT service.  For people who have existing real-life relationships, this can even become quite destructive.  

Keeping in-character things in character (and at least in my mind avoiding the emote-orgies that become way too common in MUDs), I believe the \"standard\" culture of planeshift has evolved to expect a marriage to be an exclusive matter.  The Diaboli will most likely shun marriage, after all, it\'s almost religious!  For those of you wishing a harem, officiated marriages are probably not the way to go.
