Angmarzku 1251 Share Posted September 16, 2016 @SquirtGun Ghouls don't get killed if they walk over/are touched by gold, it'll hurt them yes but that won't keep on for a long while. If you want to know RPly what their weakness is, experiment on them. You're just triggered by the bad RP both sides has been giving. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to know RPly what their weakness is, experiment on them. You're just triggered by the bad RP both sides has been giving. I have experienced Ghouls that say they cannot cross gold. I have experienced Ghouls that ignore the gold lines all together. I have experienced Ghouls that say 'ouch' and keep walking. I have experienced Ghouls that scream in pain and limp on. As I said earlier, I have asked a variety of people that should know what is their weaknesses, and have recieved a variety of answers from all sources I mentioned. As I said, while weaknesses may be meta-gamed by posting on the Wiki, it also acts as a way to prevent power-gaming. And if I was triggered, I'd be screaming at the sp00k as it was going on, not trying to figure out what the real answer is from MAT, LT, etc. after the fact and just letting the RP flow.

Angmarzku 1251 Share Posted September 16, 2016 @SquirtGun Yeah, but instead of messaging privately an LM or MAT member or someone knowledgeable on Ghoul lore you post unnecessary paragraphs here. Report the bad RP to the MAT if it's a big issue. Not sure who told you gold kills them when they touch it, but it doesn't. It only creates immense pain.

As I have said, I have messaged privately LM, MAT, MAT Lead, Necros, Ghouls, Darkstalkers, etc. I have gotten mixed answers. And to say that I unnecessarily posted paragraphs here is a bit of a false statement. We were asked what we'd like to see. I made a statement about such weaknesses being made public on the wiki articles to avoid such scenarios of potential power-gaming. Someone questioned what I put, I further explained, we conversed, you know, have a discussion about what we'd like to see and why. Which is the purpose of this thread.

Murdervish 308 Share Posted September 16, 2016 Although all lore should certainly be open and available on the wiki, and I'd love when any updates are made to lore the WT should be informed of it immediately so the appropriate changes can be made, starting the argument with "I can't effectively metagame" is a little weak, and then trying to back-pedal that to "I want to do the MAT's job for them" isn't exactly helping. I more think that, as the wiki is supposed to be the searchable database for lore, then the wiki (once it's in a proper working order) should be the "official" database. Not the forums, random google docs, or skype chat histories. That should be what lore writers reference, what players wishing to make creature apps learn from, etc etc. Since both the LT and the WT are coming to restructuring, we might be able to see that.

Merkaken 516 Share Posted September 17, 2016 Don't accept lore and then later on deny it, I.E Phobism. If it's been accepted, it's been accepted. Dunno if this has been said already in things that will be changed, if not, then I'd like to see reasons why things have been denied, unless the writer of the lore specifies he'd prefer to be PM'd the reason Get rid of the lore catalog. Make things that have been written reviewed, voted on, and the majority ruling being used on said lore so we don't have lore that was written a year ago clustering up the lore thread waiting to be accepted or denied. As has been said before, clear guidelines on what gets lore accepted, like the guidelines put up on what the LT is looking for in magic lore. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
