Nowadays, it is an exponential decay graph - so if today you just started skilling, you skill faster, if you've skilled a lot already, you skill slower. It is actually possible to learn after the 'too tired to learn' notification - but it'll be really slow. Thanks for explaining that, I was wonderi...

I *love* Old English, and would gladly waste my time learning it if I had the resources. >:] I thought it might gain some criticism for using it, though. One of my characters comes from a very Anglo-Saxon area of the mainland. Ooh! I'll come have conversations in Old English (Anglo-Saxon) with you!...

No matter what I do, I am never able get to the bottom of my screen when I'm in windowed mode. If I need to reach something in the bottom row of my backpack, I have to move things around until it ends up in a different row. I can't even see the bottom row.

*shrug*

Hope you get it working.

Since java uses its own VM, programs written on java will work across all OS systems which support the Java VM. Wrong. It means Java comes up with different bugs on each operating system.

Nice proposal to make use of AE vs BE as dialects, but honestly, for me, that is too much a hassle with too little gain. The idea itself is appealing, though. I don't think anything needs to be done, though. Just leave everything as it currently is, and our characters can just assume that an NPC co...

The main difference between BE and AE are a few minor points of spelling (and colloquial terms). Other than that, most of the differences are in pronunciation. AE prefers "z" over "s" and drops the occasional "u" in a few words: Specialize vs. Specialise Favor vs. Favou...

Re: Hello.. give me a break

Arguably though, not every character is from Gobaith originally. A character from say, the densely populated areas of Gynk, where a lot of people tend to be trouble, or, say, people from distant bustling cities, aren't probably as keen on socializing with strangers. Yeah... I don't have any charact...

Re: Free Food vs. Cooking

The Utopian availability of free foods cooking a moot question. The island is a cornucopia of fruits and fish. Until some balance is created why would anyone bother to obtain cooked foods?

Apolgoy--blocking the cemetery

My computer fouled up and I ended up blocking the entrance to the cemetery for a prolonged period of time before I was able to move out of the way. I know that at least two people tried to come by and couldn't.
