Pls remove "management" positions. Everyone who volunteers for staff is an equal participant and every team member should have the freedom to make decisions in a timely manner.

@monkeypoacherPretty much yeah, you defo just need project leads though, last thing you want is two people working on two different things that conflict with each other.
@LaeonathanI feel like we have plenty of staff yet **** has been so slow in some regards, world has 3 managers and 21 members, as when I checked maybe a day or two ago, Elysium still hasn't had nodes put in their mines from what I was told. -
@Venomous_PupThat's cool, but usually a huge amount is inactive, so "the real" numbers are usually 1/3. People are sometimes gone for weeks, have exams, irl stuff etc, simply lack motivation. And many have very limited time and only do stuff for 1/2 hour a day. If they'd have 21 active members its no issue. I remember when I was active in WT it was always 5-7 people being active and 1-3 of them being very active... also, at some points, people just wanna play.

ppl have always missed the implicit message in CRP taking a million years: that there are other things to roleplay than murdering someone else, and alternatives to violence exist.

this is a roleplay server where you can do virtually whatever you want, find a creative way to beat someone in combat or win the conflict through alternative means. I'm just pointing out there are interpersonal, political, legal conflicts as well as violent ones, and people seem to be malding about roleplay default since it makes violence the less easy option

ppl have been suggesting splitting up these warclaims for 4 years maybe it’s time we actually listen to that
-
public staff reports are stupid but if the other side gets to publicly whine and denounce the staff we should get to also

Should trial GMs really be giving out permanent blacklists?

simba’s villain rp was not “poor” you philistine. it was godlike
-
staff thought they could own me epic style by setting my forum name to “i am an idiot”
little did they know they were on the money .. i am an idiot

telanir kinda chadding out
pretty wild. if he had just said his goal was to get to 500 players this whole time I would have almost no grounds to criticize him. wondering how much productive time this server has lost to pure needless bureaucracy. here’s to 1000 more years of lotc dominion -
the nation system may suck and most people hate it, but it lets like 8 people play a less-fun version of EU4 with the server. so it's impossible to say if it's bad or not,
-
the psyche of the average lotcer is so warped that when directly polled for fun server ideas he can only come up with "what if we fed inactive rpers into the Punishment Cube?"
-
the staff should not OOCly prop up nations. every nation on this server should be able to gather its own resources and protect its own territory, the ones that can’t should be allowed to perish
(this means full freebuild)

the story team needs to remind you that it doesn’t just twiddle its thumbs writing about “planar laws” and **** with the creation lore, it also actively tries to delete your playerbase with made-up lore contrivances!

must be telling on yourself there a little bit bud because I didn’t say that!!
like all of lotc’s bad decisions, I automatically assumed it was a decision by committee made out of obscure grievances from a small subset of players and/or the perverse glee they get from making random ppl on the internet mad
-
the takeaway from this highly classified drama is that if you're 20 something your social circle should not be 16-17 year olds on the internet
-
the temp map is good actually. should make the underdark/hollow earth an accessible place next map. could put cool nodes in it or something
-
There is actually no straightforward lore for the life expectancy of different LoTC races. Humans used to live for a few hundred years before a wave of people decided having more realistic life expectancies was cool, and that became the new normal.
While a plugin that forces people to do realistic character progression would be really cool, it also isn't possible. Instead of arbitrarily punishing players, wouldn't it be better to encourage people to roleplay?
Not gonn'a lie, the fact that I can't age my character backwards or change my race or gender hasn't improved my roleplay at all. It's just put arbitrary restrictions on the stories I can tell and what I can role-play, and I think that's really ******* dumb.

1 hour ago, James2k said:yeah i think so, but orcs is just 150 because p much all of them die in battle fairly young. if they manage to avoid that they can live longer iirc
Pretty accurate, my black orc died at about 170 i think. it goes up to 400-500 but those are really crusty ages but many orcs would rather die a warriors death than die of old age.

these "union of the (animal) and (animal)" posts are the pinterest wedding templates of the lotc world
