  7. Can we take a minute to talk about the massive lore purge going on right now.  Seems like it does more harm than good to just revert people out of nowhere, especially when there’s no chance to save characters that people have put quite a bit of time into.

      @ForeverGinger Nothings wrong with pieces of lore that only interact with certain portions of the community. It only becomes a problem when roleplay isn’t given to the rest of the server. The bigger issue is when not everyone does their job and provide lore to the entirety of the community. The creative process by which both the writer and event team member create an event is ultimately their choice in where and how the event occurs. Whether or not pre-determined bias is something wrong in and of itself is a completely separate issue entirely. Bloating of the lore holds no issue whatsoever unless the lore has an exploit that wasn’t thought out by the lore-team, and needs to be addressed. The idea that the lore-team should be allowed to arbitrarily remove lore because they deem it unnecessary is completely contrary to actively creating new lore. Removing old lore for the sake of order rather than quantity holds not rationalism whatsoever. Removing lore is only done with the motive of a proclivity of hatred towards specific writing and holds no claim other than laziness to improve upon the piece. To claim yourself to be an arbiter capable of proving that a lore is unnecessary is reprehensible as a notion within writing. A flawed piece of lore is the responsibility of the lore-team to fix however, as they caused the problem by accepting it. It is ultimately their choice in accepting it in the first place, and have no right to remove it from the story and pretend it never existed. Especially when the writing that is given is never shown, and makes absolutely no sense. Out-of-roleplay should never be the cause of somethings complete removal in-game, rather out-of-character reasons should be responsible for the fixing of abusable lore. You do not cast aside continuity by destroying lore, you fix the issue you created by writing it or accepting it.

      woah its almost like the burden of removal is responsible for the burden of recompense for its backlash

  10. imagine having an anime or soundcloud rapper as your pfp and thinking your opinion matters

  12. Am I reading right that when hard shelved creatures revert back they lose their memories or PK?

      Giving an alternative isn’t acceptable either. Removing lore without a valid reason IC is frankly stupid to the continuity. Unless its a very large issue, invalidating lore is only done to make it seem like you’re doing work. @ForeverGinger

      lol LT don’t care, lotc isn’t about story. It’s about false standard and arbitrary equalization of snowflakes

      lol it’s better to just let it degrade in quality than to actually put forth the effort required to fix it

      Tech-lock ranges based on the preference of the people who put it in. If you want the tech-lock changed, you’ll accomplish much more by joining the LT and trying to subvert them then complaining on a status like a victim.

  23. Structured RP is better than Free-Form RP. Change my mind? 

    1. James

      James

      If RP was dealt with using numbers while still retaining the writing, each individual fight could be done very quickly between players. Just as Krugalicious stated, in a perfect world free-form rp would work well. This isn’t perfect and just like communism it is incapable of producing a working system. Having a bare amount of math as stated would fix a large amount of issues and furthermore eventually kill pvp. Even in mass fights if it wasn’t condensed to singular chats between individuals fighting or a fighting chat all together between participants in a single combat, things would fly-by and give non-arbitrary results. Abstractness would be completely removed from the equation and arguing would cease. Traveling is just one of the problems that would be solved as a side-affect.
