why cant they have had a job (thus getting money, items, or w/e), (before point of entering game.)then quit, then left to goto this city (point of entering game)

Then you'd be unemployed.

okay.. let me spell it out..

a) since your SPOSE to be a travler from ANOTHER PLACE you HAD to have HAD a JOB in the OTHER city/town
b) that being said.. if someone else had a job they would have HAD some money..
c) now they want to MOVE.. to THIS city/town, they QUIT/ LEAVE thier OLD job.. and go to this town to get ANOTHER job HERE.
d) LIMITED items or money from PREV. job..
e) they have no job AFTER they quit OLD job in OTHER town, so they look for a job IN TOWN

easy enough for you?

You left that otherplace and therefore lost your job.  You therefore start off the game unemployed, just as I said.

well DUH.. but the point of the post was to show that you should/ could start the game with a few items w/o having a job here since you already had on prev. (just not in game/ in this town) see what i mean?

Nowhere in this thread have I said that we shouldn't start off with items.  You misread my posts.

[Bartholin]

no.. i misread your responses.. happens when a person incerts their won version of what your tone of voice your using..

It never says we are ment to be travelers. We are pesants, PESANTS, and as I've said, pesants have jobs.

Zanz, I think you are wrong .. nowhere have I seen stated that we are supposed to start out as jobless travellers. I understand that that is the most commonly used story but that is only because the whole PS world isn't created yet. For those who are interested in continuing their lives (because that's what happens, we don't start our lives we pick up lives we predetermined in the character creation) as jobless there can be an option to have no job as well and in that case some random items are given to the new character.

If you have something to back your claim up with actual settings I'd love to read it and agree with you.

No, it happens when you're too lazy to read what it is you're responding to.

We're supposed to start off as nobodies and then become heroes.

Getting a job is on the way to becoming a hero, therefore getting a job should be something you work towards once you start playing.

Well I'm still going to disagree with that idea I'd say we're supposed to start off as normal people. The choices we recieve in character creation hardly happen to nobodies.

Meaning?

[Zan]

Meaning that I don't see why we need to be jobless at the moment we start playing.

How does one prove the other?

[Zan]

Sometimes you're really dense Zanz .. I never claimed anything proven, I said I had a different opinion.
