You’re not supposed to publicly announce the secret police, that’s missing the point.

I was going to make lore like this but you beat me to it. Sure. I'd love to play one so +1.

Watching old aegis videos makes me realize how short entity view distance is now. Back in Aegis you could see players 256 blocks away now it's 32 blocks.

I don't think it's all Minecraft servers @KBR on some other servers I've been able to see people extremely far away when on lotc people don't load in unless they're right in my face

tbh mobile phones have worse coverage than our messenger birds do @BathRugMan It's a really cool design (love the drawing) but I don't think it really fits into LOTC unless it was severely temperamental. However, we have seen stranger things; if anything, something more akin to a golem that carries people would work better, in my own opinion. If anything, using telekinesis for this over straight steam power or something akin to that makes it harder; telekinesis cannot lift living beings, after all, because their shape, centre of gravity and momentum are infinitely changing. Having a living person on top of a device like this only makes the process more complicated. As such, I think telekinesis is unfit for such a device but I am no expert in it. Overall, I do like the design but I think it needs some changes. Good luck!

You're right but the issue being addressed is that you can't strip powers from someone when they vanish from / go inactive your guild, only to return with RP and OOC power. That could happen in an arcane magic guild just as easily as in the Clerics or whatever. If guild/nation leaders can implement consensual permakill clauses they can most definitely implement magical mothballing clauses. I don't really get what the difference is, especially when/if it's a case of "You can literally only be a Paladin if you're in Bob's Paladins".

Okay and why can't guild-level rules that are self imposed fix this? Why do they need to be arbitrarily applied to all deistic magics? What about arcane magic guilds? Are they somehow exempt?
-
If you can talk to a teacher to get your magic back, what is the actual point of this whole pile of bureaucracy involving lists and moderation when in reality it just adds an extra hurdle to whatever issue is going on.
-
How's this an advantage though? People will schism over OOC issues whether we have this system or not, and a contrived scenario hardly proves anything. If anything this simply makes it harder for people to reintegrate because their magic is inexplicably gimped without much reason why. A much better solution, would be to make players gimp themselves (Gasp! Players being held accountable!). Guild rules should state that inactivity means the leaders can excommunicate or at least mothball your magical powers until you become active again. Either that or players should willingly mothball themselves until later. Having it defined at a guild-level is much better than admins applying it an entire branch of groups that are only loosely connected.
-
I don't see how having your magic gimped removes any executive power you might have unless you have a really badly organized guild. Honestly seems like busywork for the sake of busywork and more needless complication. If people come back from a year long hiatus and wave their magical wang around they're the problem not the system. Guilds don't have a zero-sum on slots, after all. Who revolves their whole hierarchy around magical tiers that don't even exist anyways?

I guess those animal spawns yesterday were a glitch in the Matrix, as we're now back to animal extinction.

@Freya are we thanking the lord for the extermination of Quazimodo?

Anyone else having a weird issue with mobs on leashes? Inside like 3 block radius they move fine then they suddenly stop moving outside that?

They remade the grizzly hills music!

I approve!

What happened to your special eyes?!

We don't have a cloud temple (and monks don't have any authority in the docks afaik).

@Kowaman I feel like you rather misrepresented the feedback given by the players (though I would not leap to saying there is an ulterior motive to this, that would be unfair).
If anything, the "I would perhaps enjoy 1.9.4..." camps should be taken as around 0.5~ a vote or less as the keyword is "perhaps", meaning unsure. Additionally, there were FOUR camps for post 1.8 and only one for pre 1.9 combat, which would hugely skew the balance in favour of the prior. If anything, I would view the results of this poll as hugely in favour of pre 1.9 combat due to the rather resounding 37.5% voting compared to 1.9.4's 31%.
If we could have pre 1.9.4 combat (no swing timers) but with different types of weapons then I believe we would strike a good balance. I feel like a lot of people likely didn't really know what constituted the option they were voting for.

Because psychology. If you are given a choice of five vote options but three are proxy ones then you're more likely to vote for one of the four even if you wouldn't have if there were no proxy vote options at all.
If anything there should have been a vote for 1.8 or 1.9 and THEN if you pick 1.9 it should ask you if you're happy with how LOTC combat is, or if you'd like a change. The used method of doing it skews results.

Thanks! I don't really mind it was just weird seeing spikes name on it (though I believe spike did write a good amount of monk lore). I might rejoin you on my old "t5" monk sometime, I didn't realize they still existed.

Hey I wrote the soul blueprint stuff! :( still, glad to see the monks are still going!

I really wish we could ban meta-birds

Life, uh... finds a way.

Ok since I apparently need Alchemical Fuel to make apple juice now, anyone know where I can get it?
