pvp is roleplay

It's not even the reason listed for action and the admin team seems to disregard it so its not even relevant to the conversation, except being used by certain community members as the justification for their "big win".

Acting like 99 percent of the motivations on this server arent for ooc reasons isnt gonna get us anywhere. There's out of game characters controlling the rp ones. As long as there's no huge metagaming it's a fact of life. This mission statement has to be some fucked up kind of doublespeak bc both the things done under the "mission statement" seem to go directly against the principles. Even in this post, the player supported by the mission statement is decided against. Like are we fr? Why even post the mission statement if your just gonna go against everything it says. I literally have no problem with the individuals on the admin team but the clowning they're doing is somehow worse than actual corrupt admins on lotc. I'd rather have someone spawning in items or pex abusing than this. It's delegitimizes the entire system and makes the team look like a joke. We should follow the systems already set in place for PRO transfer, civil wars, etc. If one side was literally ignoring roleplay and we sided with them, what does that say? Honestly, how does that support the mission statement? This is unprecedented action by the admin team over a conflict that was played by the rules. This is telling the playerbase: follow the rules, and we still might moderate you. That isn't the type of community anyone wants to be on.

Are the elves that are 18 less emotionally and mentally developed than a 18 year old human? If the answer is yes, I think it's pretty irrelevant what the culture is, if an individual can rationally consent to an act and is physically mature, it's nonproblematic. I think OOC grooming and underage interactions are a lot more problematic than anything in character.

ON DWED AND HUMANITY A dwarf stands on a wooden platform in the square of Urguan, clad in a rather old full-body suit of legion armor adorned with orange. If one looked closely, a slight glow could be seen emanating from his helmet near his left eye. "My fellow Dwed, the time has come. Too long have we allowed the wretched to sow seeds of fear in our people. Too long has this world discriminated against us, and for what, as a reward for our ingenuity? For our great feats of engineering, magic, and science? They discriminate against us because they fear the power we wield. They discriminate against us because of our Kingdom's unwavering strength and history." The dwarf takes the time to look around him and meet eyes with all surrounding him, raising his arms "So if it is us they fear, if it is us who they attack, then what good is it to play anything but the role they have chosen for us? It is ignorant to ignore the looming threat against Dwedkind posed by Humanity, and in fact, by all other races." The crowd nods and mumbles at the stark and thought provoking speech given by the Dwarf. The hustle and bustle of the markets seem to stop momentarily as if he has grabbed the attention of all in earshot. "It is time for us as not only Dwed but as global citizens to restore justice and order to the world. I, Verrik Blackaxe, declare myself Urguan I, the true prophet of the Brathmordakiin. It is simple; death to all heretics, death to all those who oppose our divine judgement. Humanity has stricken us for far too long with illness, war, and slander -- the Brathmordakiin have spoken. Death to the Unholy Orenian Empire, that which plagues the earth. Only then will justice flow once more throughout the roots of this land." As the address comes to an end, two guards dressed in similar armor escort Urguan I from the platform into the veil of the crowd. Within moments, it appears he has left the square.

thank you for being a supporter of #teamflash and for all you have done for lotc you truly seem like a kind person wish you the best in life :)

You're making a goodbye post you're coming back buddy sorry to break it to you

I believe lordofthecraft.net should start a Patreon. While you can currently donate on the server for VIP and crowns, that seems more transactional. Most people aren't gonna see value in buying crowns to buy potatoes, although they might see the value in supporting a patreon to support their favorite server. I also propose Patreon subscribers get an equivalent amount of crowns a month, with the top patron or patrons getting a special perk, cosmetic, an NPC at spawn, something. I would be much more likely to subscribe to a Patreon and leave it going, than donate an equivalent amount a month for lackluster perks, it seems dumb but I think there's definitely a psychological effect going on there (Platform with main intent to support advertisement, server costs, and development vs transactional crowns purchase with intent of acquiring ingame perks.) As someone who doesn't always log onto LoTC, I think it would also be beneficial because I wouldn't mind supporting the server forever but im not going to log on every month and buy crowns on the store, thats a lot of active effort. Additionally, I believe there should be more cosmetic perks available for purchase with crowns that are not attached to VIP. For example, the /ding command, buyable sounds, et cetera -- mainly due to the fact that if you got crowns for subscribing to the patreon, you'd need somewhere better to spend them than on potatoes. Perhaps server wide Vortex boosts, improved global node regeneration, or other global perks could be added as well. A big reason I think this should be implemented is because if LoTC is truly interested in growing and pursuing the Road to 500, it is going to have to do more than just reform staff teams and rules all day. Monetization on LoTC, once a main focus, seems to have taken a backseat. Players probably are not thinking about monetization or think of it negatively but factually the server needs money to survive, and money can't be invested for server growth if it doesnt exist. Idk if patreon takes a cut of the earnings but if so, alternatives such as stripe or paypal subscriptions could be used. @Lliradd this suggestions no balls

I'd say if you could possibly just only allow the core npcs and disable all the other ones that'd be a preferable outcome as I feel like banks and auction houses are just nice to physically see. If that is technically too arduous, I'd say remove them all until the fix can be created. I think removing them could impact the new player experience but if someone lags out 10 times the first day they join a server that can't be right.

I'd have a story team member play her for me and i'd fade to black.
