Hello, I want to talk about rumors like this one in the thread for rumors You hear that every citzen of Trolls Bane is allowed to kill dwarfs on sight. Lennier pays a bounty for every dwarf I think you're misreading this. You are not hearing from every city of Trolls Bane the rumor, you are hearing...

True, but then we don't have ships, horseback, wagons or the like.

It would just be nice for there to be any faster means of travel than walking, which currently isn't available.

Or just break it up more. Instead of getting all them money at a certain time make it so they get 1/2 the money 12 hours apart, or better yet 1/4 the money every 6 hours.

Um... that's a button? I thought it was just an icon like an advertisement.

Now I feel embarassed.

I can say that one of the hardest balancing acts for any game is the economy. It is *never* good for the economy for too much coins to be out there, it always inflates the economy. Without a money sink (a way to get coins OUT of circulation) more and more coins are out and prices go up as people hav...

This idea is similar to a text mud I play. You have your base stats, str, int, dex, etc... which you somewhat decide by stating what your most important stat is, then second most, then third most. You never see the number of for your stats but only descriptions such as: You can carry a great amount....

How about this, a noobie starts in a room with, say, 3 doors. If he goes through door #1 he gets an axe and a shovel, and can't go back though, he leaves through another door which takes him to the starting point. If he goes through door #2 he gets a scyth, a thresher and some seeds. If he goes thro...

Very observant, Rackere.

I didn't find splatterword on my list. I still can't get into the #illarion chat. :( Unable to connect to server Unable to connect to server Unable to connect to server etc. You don't need it in your list (though you can add it if you want). When you're in mirc just type: /server splatterworld.de.q...

Those look more like caltrops.

When I coded the prison in the game, the default was in minutes. Banning defaulted to day. I never envisioned that someone would be jailed for more that 2 or 3 hours at the absolute most. I intentionally made the prison boring so that people wouldn't want to go back. Not so they would quit the game.

Belegi´s player sighs I hope the day will come when all fighting skills will be gone... Why, then, play an RP game other than a chat program? Try Furcadia sometime, no combat there. I tried it, tried hard not to puke. Actual combat is supposed to bring some realism/excitement into the game. Of cour...

Basically, if a GM has to interfer to clean up a players mess, it can be considered a "divine intervention". That is, forces outside of the world have to be brought into play to influence the world. You should never have brought Magna to this point. So take your pick: 1. It was divine inte...

How long did North and South America exist before they were discovered by the Spaniards and England?

I would say, don't play a drow. My first or second character was a Drow, but it was next to impossible to play. Drows do not look like normal elves, they have much darker/greener skin and couldn't be mistaken for one easily. But in Illarion with all characters of a race loooking the same, it just wa...

In medieval times some people were only concerned with being the best. Not all, but some. Swordsmen for examply, such as Sir Lancelot, although others were just interested in staying alive, such as a gladiator. Carlos Montoya in The Princess Bride wanted to be the best swordsman in the world, so he ...

Actually, it might be a good idea to make it so silver bars didn't decay, although gold coins would (for demon cave). It shouldn't be that hard either, and I can't think of anyone in their right mind leaving silver bars on the ground to cause lag.

Also, do druids make potions one by one? No, they make hundreds in a row, standing there making that slurping, sucky noise for half an hour, now that is powergaming. Foodspells are no good for regaining mana, especially if you cast spells such as ice bolts, that would take forever. I hardly think a...

Just a note: There is (was) an issue with decayed items retaining their decayed value even when picked up. At one point I was going to fix this, but then I realized I used it to make cabbage seeds. I would sit them on a ground for a while, then get bored and pick them up, then sit them down somewher...

I think I know what probably happened, and it was probably a total accident. I did the same thing before a long time ago. Oooops, didnt' mean to do that. Sorry!

Personally, I feel 10 hours is excessive.

When I created the prison I never expected terms to be that long. Either indefinate (forever) or an hour normally. Maybe 4 or 5 for repeat offenders.

Actually, throwing stars should be a lot harder to learn. I, also, practiced in real life with throwing stars and they are not as easy as one would expect. When you throw a star if you have it tilted in the littlest it acts like a frisbe in that it tends to go sideways. The longest range I got at ab...

One thing that no game ever seems to consider when drawing torches, is that they give off a tremendous amount of smoke. A torch is a very simple device. You take a stick, wrap some cloth around it, soak the cloth in oil and light it. Works on the same principle as a candle, where the wick burns much...

Personally, I'm torn. 1. It is against the rules to powergame. Allowing a monster to attack you just to raise parry is definately powergaming, and is enough reason to get these characters/accounts banned. 2. It's not a good thing to kill a character without a valid RP reason. So, what would I do, as...

1. It has already been discussed and I think we all agreed to disagree, and accept halflings = hobbits in Illarion. Doesn't really matter how you feel about it, IMO, every pretty much agreed to that. 2. When someone emotes, yes, you can see them sneer. But you can't see what they're sneering at. #me...

Shoni,

You see some people fighting, they're all ready ticked off about something and mad as heck, leave them alone.

Backward? Hmm.. not a bad name...

My name, Serpardum, was made up as all my char names. I simply picked some letters, SPDM and tried to make a good sounding name out of it with different vowels. Some like Sapedium, Sipadum, til I came up with Serpardum. Lets take some letters (looks around the page) M V N D. MVND. Maevened. Mivinud ...

Just an observation from a non artist. It really doesn't matter if your bear looks exactly like a real bear, and if I saw it in illarion I would go grab a kitchen knife and stab it through my monitor thinking some witch somewhere shrunk down bears and put them in my monitor somehow... Um.. what was ...

This is an IC question, not an OOC question.

It should not be answered OOC in fact, IMO. (In My Opionion, Paul)
