I find the layout and both the professions and crafting plugins to be BENEFICIAL to RP, at least in theory. In reality, the crafting times could be reduced. Nothing aside from armor, food, and weapons (maybe tools) should be ANYTHING above a minute... *cough*signs*cough*. That being said, even the items listed above shouldn't be more than, say, 1-5 minutes or so. Maybe if gold or diamond is implemented, that could be 5-10. As for professions and grinding. XP shouldn't fall below 0, the rate of XP gain should be slowed significantly, and XP gain should be made a bit faster. The only other things I have to complain about are bugs, which I know the tech team will get sorted out. All in all, I think these plugins are worthwhile to have... maybe it'll reduce the number of full iron pvp bandits. OH! Human racial bonus isn't fair to humans who aren't a part of the major nation. It should be changed.

For large scale battles, I the vast majority of these changes. PvP can be RP... but, right now, it's simply not. EDIT: I for one, do support the addition of armor weight. You shouldn't be able to keep up with someone in leather while wearing iron or diamond. It's silly. As for gold... I disagree with the super powerful weapons, but how's this for an idea? Give gold armor the armor value of iron, but the speed and maneuverability of leather or something. That would certainly make it useful, but not immensely powerful.

*points* Hey look it's Trevor! But actually, very well written, in my opinion. The plot is engaging, the characters seem realistic (for high elves), and the writing is very good for a quick draft.

Trevor scowls at the note, taking one and stowing it in a pouch. He mutters to no one in particular, though loud enough for others to potentially hear. "Bastards... ain't nothin' more than thugs and troublemakers that can shoot sparkles from their fingertips."

In response to people saying that this post is bashy... there's nothing wrong with explaining a situation that took place on a public forum, and it doesn't seem like Kipples is going out of his way to put down Bird Whisperer. He is simply using his experience as an example of how he thinks many staff members are too strict about what they allow and what they do not on the forums. He's not insulting her, or attempting to turn the entire server against her, or any of that. He's just stating that he feels like he's been treated unfairly and using that as an example to back his claim. (I'm not taking one side or the other, simply pointing out that constructive criticism and naming is okay)

The Fringe should be up and running again before we switch over to the new map.

yh heer take mi rep +420 Edit: Look at all the people who didn't read the spoiler!

I believe the White Roses did this, minus the whole PK part. That was pretty miserable for everyone aside from the WR themselves... now add forced PK to that. I hope you can see where I'm going with this... -1

A random man, of no citizenship to Kaphro or sporting any sort of crescent moon on his person, limps away from the town. Two arrow wounds, one in his arm and the other in his hip, look to have been partially healed, perhaps the process having been sped up somehow. He scowls, a certain bow missing from its sling on his back. "... Bastards killed'a vithin' kid."

let the diddling commence also ski don't forget the tildas~

Trevor stops on the road as he hears the speech from within the city walls, the driven, passionate voice clear even at such a distance. At the end of the speech, he nods once, then moves on. "Fine words..." Jackson enters the city just as the speech begins, stopping to listen as he adjusts to his new surroundings. When the speech ends, he scratches his chin and goes off to explore the city, deep in thought.

Maybe you should get off your high horse and stop looking down at people that happen to be younger than you, or the same sex as you. You're not impressing anyone.

Sounds more like you're using RP as a way to satisfy your personal desires that you can't satisfy IRL than as a source of entertainment...

Why does the player have to be female or 18+ to simply RP a character?
