I am probably necroposting and all, but I say "What the hell? I might as well." I've recently been writing a series of short books in the development of a world for pen & paper RPG campaigns that is largely constructed from my own recollection of past role-play experiences. As I was writing the chapter on halflings to describe them as they exist in that world's canon, I couldn't help but remember that one curious and highly driven halfling Aedan met in the vale of Elysium. What times those were, and what fond memories I've got of the little fellow. He's considered one of Aedan's closest friends and one that was very particular among them. I gotta say I really enjoyed interacting with him myself.

In all my years role-playing (soon-to-be 10, to be precise) I never heard of people not understanding RP is nowhere near superficial, and that morality is one of the most important things to consider (LotC is the exception to this, but I don't quite count it in my curriculum). Then again, this is most people's first RP experience, so a guide doesn't hurt. Thanks for contributing this to the community. Hopefully they'll read it and give it some thought.

Not sure if this helps but I feel it needs to be said: I believe the reason the community is flipping shite all over the announcement is because, if I may generalize, the problem is we don't want a Lore Admin at all.

So... Is MPM a thing again (compatible, etc), or are we still in the dark ages? D:
-
So... I arrived to see what was up and I see why I wasn't around for so long. See you around again o_o Oh, and happy new year, everyone!~ :D

Merry Christmas! We're all hoping to see you soon, though we have no idea if it'll become reality or not.

Hi! Things have settled down, surprisingly enough, thanks to the whole break/hiatus we're both taking (I suppose) from all the drama. I finally sorted out what was killing me inside (irl stuff) and, well, someone even messaged me saying they were glad to see the real Jack, my old self, back on track. I only hope you come back too, someday.

So, today's time for my monthly/weekly (not really systematic) check-in on the server. That said, how is the server doing? Have things gotten better or are they the same? (has it gotten worse, even?) How's everyone?
-
I hope you're taking care and, hopefully, coming back soon. Cheers!

Someone should add to the lore/wiki that it was an Adunian who created crucible steel IC, through aprox. 30 years of research, trial and error, and, at last, 5 hours of intense blacksmith RP of making the first Ulfberht; with the help of Morvan Orvar and his cousin, Byrnjolf.

Thing is, crucible steel wasn't officially made by anyone but the Adunian I mentioned. Most people just implied their stuff was made of that material, but none went through the RP of developing it, thus most of it is either lesser quality crucible steel or fake crucible steel as far as IC knowledge goes.

So... I didn't really tell a lot of people, and a post is just.. well... unecessary, so: I'm inactive because, as many have noticed, Ari left without a word (and has been gone for about two months). Since I'm partially responsible for it, I really feel worse than 'like ****'. I'm having a hard time coping with responsibilities at the moment, and it will probably be like that indifinitely (possibly permanently). Since my two characters, the only ones I honestly feel lik...

If you want, I have an open family rp slot. Otherwise, my advice is: Don't get overly attached to people on the internet, we can laugh with them, have fun with them, but most of these people will go, and we will only have our memories to remain, and smile at. The golden days are past, but why not forge new ones?

Or you can name them after what they represent, such as Aedan.

We've got a lot of ET creatures that: 1) Are never played 2) At least 90% of the server doesn't know exist 3) Aren't needed, nor do they add anything particularly important or relevant 4) People probably don't care about 5) Are very close to morphing LotC's "theme" into some really horrendous MMORPG 6) Just might be hard to keep track of 7) Might as well be removed 8) Might as well have never been implemented 9) Are "unfitting" 10) People can't relate to 11) Are so weird people probably have problems imagining or adapting to. If someone would be as kind as to make a purge of ET races, and races altogether, I'm sure a lot of people would be grateful (and some others would be just learning they were there in the first place). It's getting out of hand, I believe. As for this idea... I'll check it out again once it gets developed more. I don't like judging early versions of lore because the idea just might not be developed enough to transmit the right feeling/idea.

That's why Aedan is a classic :D

HOW ABOUT.... The wilds get tainted and claimed by the Undead?! :D Easy solution to the not-needed wilds and RP spreading n shite

Farewell, everyone. I really wish I could go back in time and fix what I caused before it was too late. Sadly, I am no time lord, nor do I have a time machine. I never meant for any of this to happen. I only tried to keep it from becoming this much of a nightmare, but I failed. I hope you can forgive me.

I hope everything is well wherever you are. Some of us are really worried since you left without a word :/
