Re: The overall roleplay and pitfalls.

I agree, but it needs to be taken in an approach that promotes players willing to learn or already skilled at RP. If we keep bringing in players who cannot RP, and steering the game into the MMO direction of NPC "go here, do this" script quests, eventually the purpose of illarion will suff...

Re: The overall roleplay and pitfalls.

That doesn't mean it can not be modified. The problem with lower draw is not the application system, its how the game is percieved. Illarion is an MMO, and would-be players treat it like an MMO. The fact that it is not an MMO but an actual role playing game is lost on most of them. Sounds more like ...

Re: The overall roleplay and pitfalls.

If elected GM, I will petition the staff to bring back the application process. And also, player based quests.

Re: The overall roleplay and pitfalls.

I have too always hated thought emotes. If your not saying or doing something tangible, don't write it.

Re: Older Players

Why did you start playing, what were you looking for? I was young and bored with runescape. Thats about it really. Illarion was like 83 on a top 100 list in 2001, and I thought hey why not. If you quit, why did you quit playing and how long did you play before quitting? The first time I quit, was i...

I picked other, I too will specify my answer.

95% of the devs hate Turny. The other 5% is their saliva that would be on Turny if he tried to help. That is all.

If I wasn't ten thousand kilometres from Germany, I would go around Berlin, and take as many pictures of kids being exposed to adult themes and activities daily as I could. And take THOSE to the german high court.

Re: Opinion on certain roleplay

Then theres not many options left after that. By banning certain RP, you alienate the larger (Adult) playerbase. Catering to the adult playerbase would be better for illarion as a whole. Either way, enforcing RP, then limiting adult themes of it is overall negative on the in game society. Perhaps in...

There is no "all go", even if both players agree beforehand. I think the rules alone make this clear: The actions of a rape are not to be rped ingame. When both agree, it just means that the chars can state that char a is a rape victim of char b, and can rp the consequences. Legal explana...
