i strangly agree, but this thread should go on the wish lists

and auran place 100 red chips on talad for me :D

[The Gumster]

but if we voted for gods than we would just have uber-powerful players that can do whatever they please.

[Auran]

No no. Its a democracy( yeah as if that ever worked:P) so they would lose their powers the next term over if they acted like pathetic losers with confidence and insecurity issues. Plus for especially bad gods we could just deny them a place in the \"Gods of The Old\" and thus a chance at immortality. That should also serve as a deterrent.

[Davis]

There are other gods, many far more powerful than Talad and Laanx, they just aren\'t anywhere near Yliakum.

And voting for gods is stupid. They would be politicians, not divine beings.

see?

Now I am a Believer:D.

Davis: See explanation of Electing Gods above. Ofcourse they would be politicians. What you never heard of divine politics? .

I think I see where your coming from.  The Xena series come to mind.  I am not sure I understan the voteing idea.  I think you should try to recruit disciples not voters.  Maybe it could be a guild option.  When you form your guild you could chose to form a religious guild with you as the divine being.  Something like a Pharoh (sp?). With this option every disciple you have in the guild could improve your stats.  Something like one skill point per desciple in the \"way\" of your  choosing.  For example.  Auran could choose to form a religious guild based on the \"white way\".  Normally he would have a skill level of 100 in white way, but with the 50 followers in the guild he now has 150 skill level.  This would allow him to heal people for 50% more health points than he would had he not been a relegious leader .

Well just an idea

[Wedge]

I thought this section of the boards was supposed to be OOC?  Oh well, I guess the poor Cabali boy gettin\' desperate for attention .

Human nature being to... \"react\" and all, I\'m sure you won\'t have any trouble gettin what you want oh dark, evil, soddy, one.

Gumster: go and read the damn setting:
\"but in this world there are only 3 (known) gods, Talad, Laanx and Vod?l. There is no record of any other gods.\"

Other gods, older and more powerful than they, told them about great tasks they would have to perform when their worshippers became ready to follow their directions.

If you count Vod?l as god of Yliakum then you people might do same with all others.
\"there already is a goddess, Laanx\"

she denied her being, her femininity

geez getting into discussion without knowing anything...[/color]

[Auran]

Ok lets drop it then if no one wants it. I just wanted to discuss it thats all. Had I had an urge to neccessarily get it intended I would have started the thread in the Wish List. Nevermind then:). Sorry for any inconvenience.

BTW:
I never suspected Wedge of being an imbecile but I guess when you call yourself \"Cynical Dancing Fluffy Ninja Philospher Psychic \" there\'s bound to be something wrong with you;). But maybe I am mistaken still. Maybe Wedge can point out where exactly I am pushing my RP agenda in this thread as demonstration of his not being a moron. I would be forever in his debt for reducing the number of morons in PS by one;).

Vote Auran For God!  

 

I hereby nominate Auran for God of insignificant monkey species!


Seriously, player-introduced gods are going to stay that way: player-introduced and player-run.  (...and unofficial)

[Draklar]

Yes, I think that if you\'d remove don\'t from topic of this thread, everything will be just fine...

[Maxximus]

Monketh scribbled: Seriously, player-introduced gods are going to stay that way: player-introduced and player-run.  (...and unofficial)

Oh, like player-introduced code and bug identification?

Why shouldn\'t the story behind this \"open community project\" be open as well? Do you think the official authors will name a piece of real estate after you if you just follow the rules?  :] The story is one part of Planeshift that could easily withstand changes, might even be the part that needs the the most. For instance, the story of the gods of Planeshift is boring and safe, and told from a male point of view that considers women second class. You wanna support that for eternity?

[Wedge]

Do you think the official authors will name a piece of real estate after you if you just follow the rules?

Well... yeah they did do that actually.

You\'re missing something very obvious here though.  The story IS open.  They have developers whose jobs are to make stories and lore for the game.  Prove you are good enough to join the team, THEN see what you can do.
