      Thanks! You too friend!

  3. Ser Gustaven von Halsfield seems unconcerned after reading over the missive. If anything, the figure who has recently faded into obscurity for the most part seems to find some element of humor from the writings of Garret Darkwood to the point where he feels compelled to chuckle aloud, "I couldn't imagine what the taste of Orenian boot is like, perhaps I'll reach out to him and consult his opinion on such a matter! I'm sure it's awfully tasty! After all, was it not Mister Darkwood himself who at one point affiliated himself with our ideology?"
  4. Literally a dumpster fire of a server and when you criticize them you'll wind up banned one way or another.
  5. Ser Gustaven von Halsfield breathes a sigh of relief at the thought of knowing that the current ruler of Norland is likely too busy doing Godan-knows-what to possibly bother with something such as extraditing his self, let alone even reading what Father Basil wrote in the first place. Personally, Gustav doubts that word of his potential involvement in the abduction of the Pontiff has even reached King Sven considering how it had taken nearly a half-decade before his own personal letters sent to the recently-crowned King were ever read. "No reason for me to worry!" He grumbles, partially hoping to convince himself that the words which were leaving his mouth were true.
  6. I've been playing since 2014. This is honestly the worse I've seen. At least from what I know last map they utilized inflation rather than deflation as they are currently. There's a reason why no economy in the world utilizes deflation .. don't know why the economy team doesn't take that into account Having the economy be worse DOES negatively impact most players, the effects of a poor economy will trickle down into other aspects of gameplay. Nobody will be able to afford a house, nobody will able to afford gear or items, nobody will be able to afford anything except by voting which is a laughable concept. Nations won't be able to afford the tiles they own due to their playerbases not purchasing property, etc. The end result be will extreme stagnation across the server, even worse than before.
  7. While many of you are celebrating and treating this as some type of victory you fail to realize that this will result in an incredible market crash; Lord of the Craft's economy is about to become even more crippled than beforehand. For those unaware the economy presently was dependent on the supply and demand revolving around Vortex tools. That's it. That quite literally is the only way to make money. The reason that this supply and demand even existed in the first place was because people were too unfamiliar with the Vortex system to properly take the time to learn how to craft their own tools (or simply too lazy), thus they were forced to purchase these tools from the marketplace, thus forcing a demand. The fact that only a select group of people were willing and capable of creating this Vortex tools in the first place creating a strictly small supply .. .. Effectively 'dumbing' down Vortex - which is the direction that I imagine this is going in - will allow anybody and everybody to easily begin crafting their own tools, thus creating an extremely high excess of supply with no viable demand. The end result will be a broken economy. Previously the economy was supported entirely by the dynamic that I described above, how will it be supported now? Previously people complained about how horrific the economy was, dear God, it's about to get infinitely worse. Mark this post, I'm telling you right now that this is going to take a turn for the worse unless the staff team figure out a way to address the economy. (Inflation rather than deflation)
  8. Sir, I'm afraid you've found yourself out of place. This belongs to me, please sir, see your way out immediately. Your foolish attempts at outbidding me will be met with hostile banter must you continue. I shall raise the bid to 350!
  9. No, no, no .. I shall outbid YOU by 50, raising the current bid to 250.
  10. I shall outbid you by 50, raising the current bid to 150!
  11. Ser Gustaven von Halsfield rests a freshly sharpened blade onto his shoulder as he pauses for a moment to read the notice, "Seems to me as if they're really going out of their way to try and avoid getting tangled up in this conflict. Why are Orenians so afraid of chubby three foot tall midgets? Either way it isn't very surprising - Orenians are afraid of their own shadows half the time!"
  12. Proud to be a soldier in the MacaroniArmy!

  13. People join expecting a Minecraft server with RP elements but leave disappointed when all they find is a walking simulator where every nation leader wants their minas and their activity rather than anything else. Perhaps that's partially what influences people to leave Lord of the Craft rather than anything else. Staff members purposefully create rules and situations which forcefully contribute to the amount of stagnation that we've experienced over the past few years. Roleplay hardly exists nowadays, your options are either guard duty within a nation or tavern roleplay - pick your poison! Wish to do something out of the ordinary? Sorry, here are a dozen obstacles placed in your path by a power hungry moderator who could care less about roleplay. Such is life within Lord of the Craft! Who has the leaked screenshots from four-ish years ago (Operation Kaboom) when LOTC was hacked of the admins talking about how they purposefully create stagnation within the server and purposefully go out of their way at times to be harsh towards players? Oh, did we forget about that? Finally, there’s so many rules and restrictions that all they can do is slice of life which turns most people off. No one plays Minecraft to RP playing house, they want content. There's no content; ergo nobody wants to play Lord of the Craft except veteran players who have no other options - to them it's a sunk cost .. they won't ever get back the time they spent on LOTC so why bother quitting now.
  14. "The equivalency of rabid dogs fighting against one another for table scraps." Remarks Ser Gustaven von Halsfield, "I've got the feeling that this won't bode well for Mister Charles Galbraith."
  15. Ser Gustaven von Halsfield bobs his head up-and-down, agreeing with whatever James would've said at that moment. Most of the time the things that James say to Gustaven go in one ear and out the other, likely due to the incredibly thick accent that the halfling possessed. Nodding to whatever words come out of James mouth has become a habit for Gustaven at this point, it was like second-nature to him: "Yeah James, you tell 'em! Put them in their place!"
  16. _______________________________________________________________________ Fresh posters were plastered throughout Almaris. It was clear that the person who had hung these did so recently. If one was to pass by or inspect it closely, the subject matter of said poster would depict the phrase: BE A MAN AMONG MEN Beneath the bold print it would read: The Revolutionary Armed Forces of Oren offers you an interesting and varied career with new allowances for fighting troops. Depicted alongside the right-hand side of the bold print would be that of a Resistance soldier donning his typical uniform - a cuirass atop a layer of buff leather. The soldier stands stiff and tall with sword in hand; he's clearly ready to take on whatever tyrannical forces he will undoubtedly face ahead of him. It is clear that the poster's motive is to spread awareness about the existence of an anti-tyrannical government force - specifically the Resistance against Oren - otherwise known as the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Oren (RAF) - whose openly oppositional to the current ruling group within the Empire. Located at the bottom of each and every individual poster are contact details for those interested in perhaps involving themselves as paid soldiers within the RAF: ((I can be reached on Discord: Pharmaceutical Grade Chlymydia#1514 - there are combat AND non-combat related positions open in the Resistance!

  17. "Absolutely revolting." comments Ser Gustaven von Halsfield as he recoils in disgust at the thought of the Imperial State Army, "Imagine getting paid to beat civilians."
  18. _______________________________________________________________________ "You fear the opposition because you fear the loss of your power." Gustaven von Halsfield, 1813 _______________________________________________________________________ Fresh posters were plastered on every building amongst Providence. It was clear that the person who had hung these did so recently. If one was to pass by or inspect it closely, the subject matter of said poster would depict the phrase: I WANT YOU TO FIGHT AGAINST TYRANNY Pictured in the center of the poster is a drawn depiction of Resistance leader Ser Gustaven von Halsfield wearing what appears to be his uniform. He can be seen pointing towards whomever might find themselves glancing towards the poster as if he was trying to convey the fact that he's personally speaking to them specifically. The look in Gustaven's eyes would be that of fierce determination. It is clear that the poster's motive is to spread awareness about the existence of an anti-tyrannical government force - specifically the Resistance against Oren - whose openly oppositional to the current ruling group. Located at the bottom of each and every individual poster are contact details for those interested in perhaps involving themselves within the Resistance: ((I can be reached on Discord: Pharmaceutical Grade Chlymydia#1514 - there are combat AND non-combat related positions open in the Resistance!

  19. Ser Gustaven von Halsfield smirks while reading through the posted notice, reading one section aloud to himself, "The city of Providence shall encourage and make an effort to involve the Church in more of the daily affairs?" he'd snicker, "Doesn't the Empire involve the Church in enough of their daily affairs considering how many innocent priests and the like they murder and bully on a routine basis? Perhaps they should consider giving the Church a break from involving them in anymore 'daily affairs'."
  20. When are we going to get coup rules? It's been nearly a month and a half since we were told, "Oh, they'll be out next week!"

  21. Ser Gustaven von Halsfield nonchalantly shrugs his shoulders after reading through the missive. Crumbling it up into a ball, Gustaven would toss it onto the street before walking off, "I've written about it time-after-time, the abuses of these tyrannical monsters that is. Seemingly my words fly over everybody's heads. Each and every time the Emperor oversteps his boundaries people act so surprised as if it hasn't already happened a million times. I will admit, I was expecting the new Emperor to have held off AT LEAST until a year had passed before he decided to start showcasing how much of an arrogant autocrat he was, but eh .. such is life. People have the opportunity to do something about it, it's their choice whether or not they intend to pursue that opportunity."
