@Unwillingly Yeah sorry about that... Was riding a dumb train of thought at that moment.

It had more to do with viewing it through the lenses of the ever favorite concept of "immortality" and how it provides no real 'point' at all and infact makes you be OOCly more worried over death since it now actually has penalties for said creatures. For example you could just become an elf and never consent to PKing your character on death and you could still have them live for up to 20 IRL years before they grow too old. (Which of course isn't an issue! This is in the end of the day a place with the goal of creating stories, nobody should be able to forcefully kill off another's character before their player is ready to put their tale to an end themselves..!!!!!)

That was the idea, entirely divorced from the fact that the creatures that often possess said immoralities are inhumane entities that have grown detached and separate from the rest of descendantkind down to their very soul having been altered and being creatures that most often than not, retain said immortality by eating the bone marrow of newborn infants or smth. On which point I 100% agree with you, OF COURSE and creatures that have abilities that center specifically on murderizing people should face penalties once they are actually vanquished so that they are even the smallest amount more careful about who or where they attack

This wasn't mean to be interpreted as "Darkspawn should have the exact same respawn mechanics as your average unremarkable person", just how having your character become actually immortal is not all that special really

@UnwillinglyYou're not wrong in saying that people really not wanting to die is a general issue and not found solely in people who have CAs that have death restrictions. I still think that being a CA that may not be able to play for XYZ time or until someone does ZYX to revive them WILL contribute to this attitude.

I just think it's not a good thing to implement these death restrictions and then usually, use that to justify a CA being very powerful. There you get situations where CAs are both frustratingly powerful in CRP AND really averse to losing and dying because it locks them out of their persona. 

I also think it's contraproductive to promoting fun villainy rp coming from these CAs. For example, a player might want to go out to do villainy but, they realise they have an event in 2 days, so if they die, they can't attend due to the respawn mechanics, so they either don't go out and do that rp OR do go out but be really unwilling to die.

I really don't see any benefits to any of the CAs that have these restrictions. You're punishing CA players for doing these encounters and losing. I don't think the people who win these encounters get more enjoyment out of the encounter knowing the enemy player's character won't be around for a week.

if you dont want a respawn mechanism, go play a character that isn't a CA, it's that easy. 

blacklist people who powergame like shit and find any reason to modreq when rping

people who powergame at all should be removed from lotc crp

from you of all people, lol

Is this a case of "It takes one to know one"? 

Btw.. RRRRRRRR

damn right!

people who reserve a forum reply pot at all re just dumb

what ferdingtonguy said
the creation of new realms are fine so as long as they can maintain their activity or else we get situations where realms with a peak of 2 - 3 people regularly exist

Idk much of what happened, but the Vikela allegedly kicked everyone out of their discord over the lurin incident after trying to pvp them & failing 

That, and I've never seen Vikela with more than 3 ppl at a time

It'd be better for them to vassal under another place, because they don't seem to have the unique culture nor playercount to really justify a whole tile to themselves- nor do I think they have the maturity to lead a nation, based off that discord thing & them reporting comments critiquing the realm app

this isn't just my opinion on vikela but all of these realms (esp human ones) that're more or less the same & don't seem to have the unique cultural identity & playercount to rationalize them not just being another vassal

A place that cannot sustain itself in the long run no matter whom they are will seemingly always fail in the end. Sure there are no activity checks but that doesn't stop someone from going to conquer them. 

I'm unaware of the Incident where they kicked people out their discord- I think if that's true then that only goes to show how much progress has been made since their "Rising"

However this status is a general statement, any vassal or soon to be settlement who cannot sustain itself, without a dedicated community and a leadership thats also mature is sadly going to crumble, sadly thats how things happen.

but who knows, this world is filled with mystery- that's just how the future works.

@Llir is a qualified DevOps engineer and has real work experience, I am sure he knows what he is doing. Sure DevOps is not programming work but it is almost the same work as he does here, and he has done a bunch Java work in the past. As a développer, surely, he could check how the timers and various elements are dealt during a warclaim, he would be able to check how many threads are created as the server manages the various elements but it's fairly complex work that could lead to a few warclaims being laggy if he has to install a few Linux/Java things to monitor the things going on.

It is truly an impossible task to tackle and @'ing him is surely not going to help when the only experience you have in coding is that tutorial you followed on youtube 2 years ago.

chill man, he's just asking a question

If you feel more obliged to answer a minecraft call than spend time with your family...

idk man

(That said I will also be playing games and ignoring family)

they didn’t say anything about discord raids tbf

Thank you Flemish.

I am MPMagician

make me

calling moderation for this absolutely shameful toxic behavior

no plz

so true

^^^^^

hiebe moment

soswaal

…Amazing! Just the way you are!

🤡

Markosi sure does give a lot infractions to members of the ISA for being a biased moderator. Maybe blame it on the current set of raid rules the server has that makes it impossible to easily follow raid rules while also trying to have realistic war scenarios, rather than blame a moderator who has given the same type of infractions to both sides of the conflict because he’s following protocol.

boat paratroopers

just say it

Me first please
