IG secrets

Post by Hu'greu »

Ok when I started to play this game, People on the forums where saying that tools need for blacksmithing and other stuff had to be found out IG. Now I see that there is a thread telling people what they need. I really dont have problem with this, but maybe we should work on what should be Keept IG and what should be know before going in.

So this way would Stop people agruging what should be left IG and should be told.

I think the tools need shoudnt be IG secrets, but how to use them should be. So that way a person could RP learning it and stuff. It also helps build bonds between players a bit.

What are yalls thoughts on this kinda of stuff.

The things that should be kept ingame aren't curently. I have realized a large number of people use OOC info in the game. The tools and how to aquire them are such OOC info I mean. I am against the forum that tells where to buy and how to make. This is in my opinion, an in game problem for your charater and not the person behind it.

In my opinion it is not a question of ig or forum, but of IC or OOC. If I was in somewere new and noone could help me when I was around I would leave a note on the town board asking for help. this is the forums. This is realistic and all this IG secrets stuff is not needed. Perfectly fine asking on the forum as long as it is IC.

This is on the general board and is not In character.(Meaning the "Where to buy, how to make" thread)

A post on the RPG board inquiring about where to buy tools and the like would be deleted because of the "No trade threads" rule.

So you cannot post on rpg board because of rule above. And besides. You can still have an IC post on the general board. The were to buy how to make is ment to clean up the boards so that there isn't half a dozen diferent people everyday asking how to do something. Mind there are still nerly half a dozen because people are lazy and won't read. But the point is it is ment to help clean up the boards.

Erm ... is there a difference if you post questions in the RPG board or the "Where to buy..."-thread ?? :roll:

Fact is that ig you don't always find someone to help you. And when you've been trying for days to find some solution and are stuck, you should have the possibilities to ask ANYWHERE. Otherwise you lose fun and quit.

... just my 2 cents

Just because it is the gerneral board doesn't mean it can't be IC. There are not IG secrets!

BEcause they aren't written IC. Duh! I said that question can be asked on forums but should be IC. I didn't say they were.

Maybe there should be a sticky on the RPG forum, with little adverts written by Eliza and the other NPC's etc (to start off with) saying what they sell, where they are, and maybe some prices. That way at least newbs (or people who havent played the game in a few years) will know where to go, and maybe the writers can have a little fun doing the 'adverts' medieval style.

Afterall, I'm sure merchants would advertise this way.

Good idea, if someone compiles such a list, medieval style, I'll make it sticky.
