Bye Mitch,

Thank you for all that you have done here over the years, both for the community as a whole and for me. You have certainly left your mark on Illarion. Good luck in your future endeavors and I hope you'll stop back to visit every now and then to visit. I'm sure you will, everyone does.

3.) This is just a minor gripe, but the out-of-game politics were beginning to be too much for me. There are various folks who simply want to divide the players by ethnicity, age group, or roleplaying ability even outside the in-character forums. I was tired of hearing comments like that of Niniane...

Martin As we were told. The Iraqi government was turning off their own power and consequently their own water supply in Baghdad before the US troops entered the city. They also would not allow the civilians to leave the city during certain hours so as to use these civilians as human shields against ...

There have been problems in the past with monsters just vanishing from the game. Because of this I can see why he posted here so no need to jump on him. Now that he knows, as do the rest of us, that it is some rp problem and not a technical problem I think the thread can die out. Thank you for brini...

Heh, look at your sources. CNN is evil and Public Broadcasting Service is leftist. And I guess the Agence France-Presse goes in the CNN category. Come to think about it, so does Reuters. Heh, these "embedded" newscasters are as embedded as ticks. I remember hearing something about a repor...

According to all of the game documentation, yes. Yes they are, Elaralith.

I speak from experience when I say this, but every country has their own version of 'History' that they teach. When I was in High School (15-18 years old for those who don't have that exact term) all history taught to us, the students, was pro-us rhetoric that showed how wonderful the US was and jus...

A three hour day would mean that there are players who don't sleep for 3 or more days in a row. Each RL day is 8 days in illarion. That makes one RL week 56 illarion days. One month is nearly an illarion year. Human characters that started with an age of 30 would live, realistically considering the ...

A very poorly thought out suggestion at that. That would mean that there are players who don't sleep for 3 or more days in a row. Each RL day is 8 days in illarion. That makes one RL week 56 illarion days. One month is nearly an illarion year. Human characters that started with an age of 30 would li...

You were supposed to follow that description on moonsilver. The description is not meant to be a description of the people who don't understand the specifics of each race such as those who play dwarven mages with no rp background for doing so, but rather a description of the 'common' dwarf so you kn...

A cloak that hides a character's number would be similar to a person in real life wearing a stocking cap and all black clothing and walking into a bank. You don't know who they are, yes, but you know they are up to no good and the guard will act (As it is now, everyone in illarion is in a way a 'gua...

I don't quite understand this proposal. If wearing a cloak would make that single character's number invisible and everyone else still had a number, everyone would know exactly who the thief character was because it would be the one who you couldn't see their number. This would be no armor and anyon...

Yes it does. Each weapon gives a different amount of parry or protection. Even wands add some. Your character will have an initial amount of parry. This is your ability to dodge a blow and is based on dexterity and agility as well as your parry skill. These all work together to determine your base p...

Wearing two shields is terrible rp for a mage and should be frowned upon. This is not a viable option to be accepted as a defensive strategy for a mage. In fact, it should be made impossible and one day if all goes well it will be. I think that this would be a better solution to your problem, Bloodh...

@Brendan If every wedding and every funeral would have the voice of a given God or Goddess they would lose their mystique. Just imagine how many weddings would take place as soon as this was available, and the GM's would have far too much work to do to keep up with them all. Another duty for GM’s wo...

You have to count arrows in the same way as you would count a sword. There are many characters that are specifically archers (not pk archers otherwise known as 'snipers' but good rp people who use the bow as their weapon of choice). If an arrow did not have the same effect as other weapons against o...

If you want your questions answered you should give some more information than what you did. Have you applied for an account? Have you received a message expressing that you were accepted? Your character name isn't Crazycow, is it? Also, the server is temporarily down or hanging right now (the time ...

A war axe can hit from two steps while a fire sword can only harm the opponent from one step away. The swordsman has no chance of harming the warrior with the war axe unless he is close enough (a huge advantage if distance can be kept!). Once close enough the swordsman is inside the defense of the w...

If an idea is obvious there is a very high chance that it is already known and being worked on or thought about by the programmers. Just because a proposal is not listed on the proposal board does not mean it is not in consideration (it is just too obvious to bother listing!). How many inventions h...

I personally think Martin does a terrific job and is too nice to some people (and his witty comments are hilarious when taken in context). All of the gm/moderators are! There are infinite cases where a warning or board or even character suspension are warranted but are not given. They are all very l...

Paul, What I think Fieps was trying to say is that the posts you made were unnecessary. Actions that take place in the game are not something that has to be acted out on the boards again. Only the people who witnessed the action in town should know about them. If they take place on the boards instea...

((I was replying to the letters that were pinned to the boards and not sent. I took the one from Darklin Vul to be pinned by his wording. I responded later due to the lack of a response from your character to my words to reiterate my views with more information added. I responded yet again to warn y...

Regarding Darkend Blade: These are all in character matters and I'm appalled that Darkend Blade thinks he has to bring his own mistakes and ignorance forward in thinking that since he dreamed up some story line for himself and then attempted to interact them with other people and they did not go exa...

I'm sorry if you never understood Darkened Blade but I had a bad relationship with most of your characters because my character has a memory and does not easily forget things that other people do around her. Durik attempted to keep a mirror found after a battle with Bachomiosh (or however you spell ...

Niniane sighs deeply as she posts her last note on this board. Elaralith I only asked you to do this for the good of others as well as the good of yourself. Apparently you have not changed as you say you have or you would care what sort of model you were being for them. Elara will once again be ash...

Niniane hears of Elaralith's pleas for forgiveness and her apparent miraculous change after committing her worst crime to date. She walks to the boards with her scribe at her side, dictating a message to the lean elf for all to read: Elaralith, I would like very much to believe that you have change...

@Kringin As you know it was designed to stop mages from casting on themselves to gain magic resistance. If any spell hits you it should hurt in some way and a mage should never cast on themselves from an rp standpoint unless they were attempting to harm themselves greatly. The magical energy that fl...

Niniane pins a note full of pity for the once respected Elaralith to the board. Elaralith all you speak are lies and if you cannot see that there are many witnesses that are coming out against your actions, condemning you for your actions, your lawlessness, your insults, slander and impious deeds t...

@Aragon. What do you mean when you say, 'Also I will only set a subscribtion on the rgp and guild board for my char, but not on the other boards.'? Is the subscription in this meaning a signerature of the individual character or something else? The word subscription brings to mind a contract you sig...
