The Fleeting Mysteries

[Praetor 1550]

******* good riddance. Ascended should have been removed years ago and the rest were just wastes of space that over-diversified magic so much that everybody is a fkn arch-mage of something or other. Was as if WoW suddenly made 50 classes instead of 10 or whatever it is rn. When everyone's special, no one is bla bla bla. 

Hope to see more soon, been wanting this since I was in the LM team.

 

This will surely maximize my fantastic roleplay experience to a whole new level. kappa

i still don't understand the point in removing magics

It makes them look like they're doing something. If the magics remained, it'd literally hurt no one.

Tbf ascended magic needed to go and puppetry is unused 

Explain why it "needed" to go.

Having 60,000 types of redundant magic that nobody uses is akin to a business hiring a building with 60,000 rooms that it doesn't use, it's inefficient and useless.

But this isn't a business or a building. This is a roleplaying community. Should be inspiring creativity instead of taking away options. Tell me what damage having these magics was doing. Who or what was it hurting?

Indeed it harmed no one. Should we remove shades then that has the same numbers as Ascended ish because they do not kill enough people? 

The Ascended haven't done anything relevant, made a name for themselves (they're quite literally infamous), they've done quite literally nothing which deserves recognition. Even with supposed inactive leadership absolutely nothing stops the Ascended, at that time, from taking the initiative and doing what needed to be done. The Shades are active, they're doing things, they're out RPing with other people, they have a name for themselves, and more.

 

The removal was to prevent a clot of unused magic to flush out the old/unused/inactive/etc and instead, provide chances for the new.
 

Like I said, Pess. If you have a problem personally with its removal then feel free to PM me and we can discuss it.

I believe as of now the whole clique notion is being dealt with (it seems like that at least) with the various amount of players being added to the magic list. I wouldn't necessarily say that dark arts groups revolve around certain people. . . its just that they don't accept just anyone. With all this magic talk, I think it's kinda placing emphasis on the magic as if it's the biggest thing in the server; it shouldn't be. People should keep enjoying what they are doing whether they have magic or not even if you want a little excitement. More magics will be introduced to replace these older ones I'm sure so no one PANIC. 

The only comment I have is that I think that the teachers of any magical group need to be committed to their role in order to promote activity. An easy metaphor for this is like a river that breaks off into multiple streams: they are the catalyst of making their sector of RP active and then students further that. It's just not fair for players to be cut off from an RP because the teacher isn't active. But I think this is being dealt with as well so we can only hope!

Can we see Shades, Blood Mages, and their ilk get removed, too? I would give my applause.

As with everything it is, ultimately, opinion. I've personally thought we were doing very well over the past few months, we even have new members.

I see NO reason to remove Shades as they might be a small group, but are pretty relevant in RP to my knowledge, not as much as say the Necromancers or Frost Witches, but still pretty up there.

Can we expect more magic to be taken down in the near future? or more magic to be added?

Meh, I don't see them that way, at least because they don't show up and roleplay with different groups like dwarves and humans, which Frosties and Necros do.

I see necromancers and frost witches around more often than shades so don't know what you're talking about or where you get that info.
