I think the healthiest way to play this game is to go into it accepting that you are going to have some really bad experiences. Plenty of times I've had to just get on with it when another player takes liberties with the trust you give them, plenty of times players will attempt to straight up bully ...

It's very rare that anyone will listen if someone from outside their playerbase suggests to them how they should be behaving IG, or OOC. This is why it's so important that prominent players in their respective groups stop focusing on what other playerbases are doing, or saying, and focus on trying t...

Just posing this as a question, I am not necessarily suggesting it but-- What if we pulled back leadership powers some, so the topmost rulers of Cordor, Brog, the new city etc were NPCs and generally indifferent to our lowly PCs and only brought out by the DMs for the most very important story mome...

It's entirely possible to have Conflict without PvP (I've done it in Cordor via political scheming, maneuvering and machinations, forcing people to react and oppose me in a fashion that allow for direct violent confrontation to be socially permissible.) It's also entirely possible to have PvP witho...

I'm confused as to how the apparent answer to players logging in old characters they don't play just to vote for their OOC friends is to add fixed term limits. Punishing players that are dedicated to the position enough to stay longer makes very little sense to me as someone that held a settlement l...

It's a pretty minor problem, but when you ask to "Appearance Helper" in the PGCC to change your head style, it changes the head style of the Appearance Helper instead of your own character.

Bug with the Harpy (Darkwing (or Shadewing, can't remember)) that sometimes spawns in the Harpy nest at the Crystal caves. Today it summoned a "shade" which was nothing but a nameless, static, generic Dwarf with no name.

the truth is that taking rpr seriously is a self-defeating activity Play. Have fun with other people. Absolutely, the RPR ratings are just guides on how to create healthy RP. If you do not have 40 RPR, that doesn't mean you're incapable of creating fantastic RP, and just because you're 40 RPR doesn...

RPing with people is sometimes a really delicate balance, it is tough to disassociate ourselves with the characters we play, and it is easy to inadvertently trample on other character's stories to further that of your character's story - and it is easier still to willingly trample on another charact...

My Dwarf always had a tense relationship with the Arcane Tower that never really boiled over, but never really cooled down either. Astra was a large part of it never boiling over and the character played a large part in the closing of a nearly 3 years story, and for that I am ever thankful.

So obviously the original point of this thread is not true .. there is a place for evil on the surface, just like there is a place for good in the Underdark. Subtlety is usually the best way to achieve a decent story when you're attempting to commit acts of evil in good lands, or acts of good in evi...

My advice to bad aligned players and good aligned players is exactly the same .. 1) Bad guys need to take good guys seriously. Good guys need to take bad guy seriously. 2) Understand that the best way for bad players to achieve gravitas is with the help of willing good players, and that the best way...

People ebb and flow, times are always changing, battles come and go ... but in my Dwarf's story there was one constant - Shanna was his friend from the first page until the last.

A real pleasure spending so much time with Eirik. He played a pivotal part of Brogendenstein for the last few IG years, and a stability to Darrowdeep that provided a foundation for some fantastic RP.

It was an absolute pleasure in all my interactions with Igogh. The character played such a vital part during the closing years of Ghestaldt's story, and for that I can't thank you enough.

I think it's fairly obvious that about 90% (that's a conservative estimate) of all players will have a build they consider powerbuilding. Which is why I think it is less a problem with adhering to character sheets or not, and more a problem of a stigma between two players based upon how their charac...

Not every genius is good at expressing themselves, and not every idiot is a bumbling, drooling mess. Obviously there will never be a point where everyone is told to RP their character sheet or else, so probably the best way to approach the matter is by enlightening people on just how fun it can be t...

Demetrius played such a big part of Brogendensteins ‘Golden Age’. A big thanks from me for all the time spent together, getting to know each other both in and out of game.

I think it would be a good idea to see tutorials about how to go about creating assets like the ones people have been referencing (Character models, texture packs, etc ..) here, so that there could potentially grow a community lead project for future Haks used.

Gelatinous cube playable race. Anything you equip is displayed as floating inside you!

As do the corpses of any enemies you kill.

As somebody that never used Haks before, because that would require just the basic understanding of how and where to move files, I tested the downloader for the Star Wars server which is crammed full of Haks. It's as easy as waiting. My concerns about content that simply does not fit the artistic st...

Some of the clothing haks are really great, but some .. not so much. My only hope is that there is some restraint in the designs that are chosen to be added to Arelith so that nothing seems grossly out of place.
