  1. Go ahead
    Throw your rocks at me
    From your little glass house
    And then take off running
    You're no better than me
    We've both made mistakes, haven't we?

    I won't undo what I'm doing
    Sit in judgment of what makes us human
    I don't claim to be proud
    But my head won't be hung in shame

    I didn't plan it
    But the light turned red, and I ran it
    And I'm still standing
    It's not what I wanted, but now that it's right here

    I understand it
    A story written by my own hand
    It's life biting right at your heels
    I didn't plan it
    But it's finally something to feel
    Oh

    Look around you
    Ain't no saints here, baby
    We're all just looking for a little less crazy
    And sometimes, it's a hard left turn
    Down a road you never thought you'd see

    I didn't plan it
    Taking back what's been taken for granted
    And I can't stand it
    I'm sick of the way I've been waiting to break free
    I needed saving
    And a good mistake needed making
    Maybe you need the same thing

    Something to feel
    To race through your blood
    And remind you you're here
    To open your eyes and look around
    And see the sky when you're underground

    I didn't plan it
    But that's life
    And I'm finally feeling alive
    It's not right, but it's mine
    And it's finally something to feel

      If if if if you wanna go about what I do you gotta sneakily cut lyrics and edit them so they dont fit the song but it narrates the story you’re tryna imply. I approve tho. Spam forums w/ me dude

  2. Right, I don’t make these sort of Status reports, but it fits in a way...

    So, hello people, have any of you seen the increased number of people not following Lore, like curses and so on, and having nothing done with it at all? Or people flat out not knowing the Lore? I have a feeling that that is something that has been going on and it intrigues me, and how that goes on for as long as it does, “come on man, we are a community at least read the Lore. Is what I would say if it really is real and not just me being jaded.

    Or people just showing basic disrespect for people and casually breaking rules like running from Roleplay as an example, just feels strange. Now I know your responses will be “Just report them reeee!!” But the problem with that is, it is on such a high level of mundaneness that... it is almost impossible to report it all, I don’t know, it could just be me, but it feels like LoTC has gone down the hole for too long.

    I know that I will sound like a meme like this, but can be somewhat brought back the Anthos Rules? The reasons I say this is because of the number of PvP instances I have been seeing and how much it flips mages and other roleplayers off, just seems a little weird to me that that is kept up, we have Warclaims for mass PvP after all, of course we can’t get rid of it fully, but let’s tone it down a little, if it is because you are not the best at CRP Nepir made a guide on it, and I am sure people are willing to help you in some way, if you need it that is.

    Now that we are done with those concerns lets move onto something else on the matters of things that likely need changing, and likely is being worked on.

    A guide for new players, this I know is being worked on, and comment on that post boys! The more the better! I need things to work with.

    I suppose we also need a way to do routines for moderation in the game to check for people breaking rules like “Ravens in the sky” over a city watching that sort of area, or something, but opinions, this might be too hard to pull off. Especially with the merge of teams that happened...

    Now this one goes to the Application Team I love and adore (I know how biased wow xD), I think a harder application formation will be key for raising the quality of LoTC at the current state it is in, which for the record the Application form is pathetically easy man, I know it needs to be alright, but raise the standards a little.

    I think that is everything that I personally, in my own opinion, needs addressing. Likely some points I am forgetting, but what can be done in the end. I can’t remember every point, I am human after all.

      the lore is bad, I can’t find a comprehensive guide to it anywhere, and the time I could spend reading lore could also be spent playing this game on my very limited free time. the lore team’s priority has been solely focused on magic moderation for so long that there’s been almost zero effort taken in curating lore into an easily accessible format

       

      the curses are a fundamentally stupid idea and they’re set up in such a way that nobody should ever follow them. there’s plausible deniability with elf fertility (oh we just FTB’d and rolled 100 times), orc bloodrage is a bonus, dwarf greed comes naturally to players, and there are no hard and fast rules on human age. I don’t like elf women giving birth to triplets or 600 year old humans but at the end of the day it doesn’t affect my roleplay very much. you could rewrite the curses so they actually meant something (elves have higher infant mortality [which you can actually rp] rather than a higher dice roll for conception, humans are naturally bent towards destructive wars [because they are already], etc.) but the idea of having convoluted pros and cons just isn’t very good

       

      mages do not deserve any ******* quarter when it comes to pvp. once mages lose their thanos gauntlets that shoot fire and magic swords and invincible CA creatures we can talk about defender default being unfair. so long as you’re not attacking anyone you basically choose the rules of engagement, which means you can force someone to rp default against your huge advantage or go away. the system is fair for you, it isn’t fair for people who want to play mundane characters and not get dicked down by anime protagonists and bandits

    Hello, unfortunately your application has been: You may re-apply as soon as you can. You will need to make another application to try again. Please make the following edits before submitting a new application: Your Metagaming definition is wrong and needs to be changed. It also needs to be expanded on. Your Powergaming definition is wrong and needs to be changed. It also needs to be expanded on. Your Character description needs to fit the persona. Your interesting facts list must have at least one weakness in it. Your Skin is too modern and needs to be changed to something more 1100s. Your Skin does not match the chosen Race’s Lore and needs to be changed. I’d advice also expanding on the Persona Biography itself whilst making these changed, as it will make it better too look at and give you a feel for the persona in the long run. The Wiki is filled with information about the server, as well as the metagaming and powergaming definitions, feel free to read up here before you re-apply, it may be useful!.

  5. If anyone asks how I feel nowadays this is it from a nutshell.
