Also hi, I'm still very much alive. Currently Community Director of my own project - online gaming community /w about 2000 members / 300 active member core in a different game and atmosphere devoid of the degeneracy I was exposed to in the past. I miss my writing days - look what they've done to my boy shamanism lel. Also I'm 24 now, can't believe I got here when I was but 18. Also buy doge.

@DarkSainthoodgood work on finally getting it through – though I will request some credit here.

Quarantine times hittin’ hard (Not). Playing games all day, simple daily obligations, weekly therapy sessions on the phone and school deadlines way in juli.Not bad! Unfortunately the loregames aren’t permitting any shaman constructs or creatures anymore ;=; sad

So I guess I’m 23 now, don’t feel any different – in my opinion it’s been highly overrated. Ask me Anything FAQ: “Why don’t you play a lot anymore?” I need a VPN to log onto the server without being kicked every 10 seconds, and my free VPN is out of bandwith rn. Also, 50% of my characters are in loregame limbo, meaning their magical ability is highly limited and the magic plays a significant role to my enjoyment of those characters and I cannot fully rp them without it. “Teach me shamanism?” No. “What’re you up to during quarantine?” Smoking a shitton of weed, endulging in some quality planetside 2 grinding (Reached battlerank 100, unlocked ASP, now Battlerank 40 again)

We’ve had our IC strife back in the olden days. I have mocked you among those that did but as of late, during the past or so year, I have had a change of heart and opinion on you and if you didn’t know that by now, here it is. I wish you the best in life, sincerely.

Good lore, but ehm.................. Shamanism?

Been there since launch, among other interesting builds. Likely nothing usefulness to them as they serve an aesthetic purpose

formatting is a bit eh, furthermore seems legit

The loregames force narrative of roleplay to non magical, which is indeed an issue for magical groups. And there can be other reasons but they need to make sense. The issue here is that it’s a global thing that EVERY teacher has to deal with. It’s a bit odd if there come 100 ways of teachers saying that all of a sudden they lost connection or an old sports injury is hindering them from teaching. It would’ve made more sense, as this is a global happening, for a global reason irp to exist that would at least give characters a way to define and give reason to this phenomenon.

I can go on a limb and write a thousand word thesis on this but instead I will bullet list my concerns and issues with the loregames as they are going on. - No public updates on loremags or progression in quite some time, even though lore keeps getting cut or shelfed. - Major infraction on character progression and roleplay in general – Major infraction on teaching of magic as all is blocked – the same done to creation roleplay of magical items as LT signatures for artificery magics are disallowed - No reason in roleplay given to at least mend this, forcing players to resort to in character skygod references as a reason for why something cannot be done - The Shaman rewrite has been effectively taken out of player hands. I’m only aware of this one but there might be other magics where player / magic user involvement in rewriting is effectively nullified Please civilly discuss this and mayhaps offer solutions? Haven’t heard anything from flambo either in a while, leaving many with questions of who’s in control of the loregames and what the line of progression is.

I should write lore on sterling engines
