It’s not constructive criticism, though. This is literally you sticking your digital fingers in your ears and screaming “I don’t like it, I don’t like it!” over and over and over again.
Forum Barometer test is how far down from the Meme-Castle you can get ol’ Perroy, and when he’s consistently posting things that 1) make sense, 2) have sound backing, 3) wreck whatever you are calling an argument, then, really chief, whatever ‘This’ is, This Ain’t It.
And before you accuse me of being part of the ‘clique’, me and the man with the silly hat have had plenty of forum disagreements in the past
I wasn’t aiming that particular comment at you in person, was just a general comment. AD has a habit of finding the bad before it looks for the good. And I’m not complaining about being backlisted, nor asking for your pity really, was just making the point that Albrecht isn’t the sort of roleplayer that let’s his OOC feelings get totally in the way of RP.
Though the blacklisting of this guild is more because of Shonn, (and me probably because I’m so vocal in defending my friend), than the other members, most of whom, aren’t ERPers anyway. Which was what you were worried about with Brigante and the Sun Hawks if i understood your post correctly. The whole being punished for actions of the GM.
For all I know, my guild is not a ERP guild.
If you then say it’s a guild that has members who ERP… I am certain also the guild on AD where your female mage is has plenty of people who do the same.
For what concern the initiative, by itself can turn out great as concept.
I believe a player driven environment may be more vibrant and alive than the staticity offered by NPCs.
Albeit, personal experiences suggest me that the core roles will be filled in a way echoing of nepotism - to friends (and relative alts) - as it was for let’s say the correlation of Stormwind City Watch and High Court of Chancery (So Guards and Juridicial System in the hand of the same players through alts / multiaccounts / close knitted individuals).
Also as already noted by Karienn for different circumstances, the idea to exclude individuals or guilds is there.
In this thread I offered mutual involvement for a case in Duskwood ( [A-RP] In Defence of Duskwood - #12 by Albrecht-argent-dawn ), but the reply provided, to talk in game, happened after the interested person came, did his thing, and merely informed afterwards of what they did.
Plus ulterior conversations, listing which guilds to include in some local project, and which to eventually leave on the side or on ‘maybe’.
Thus, I can safely believe the concerns expressed above by third parties will reveal truthful on the longer run - even more so if a kind of answer is given on the forums, but then otherwise is done in game. Because forums are public, thus, a reply of façade.
Said that, I wish you best of luck in your project - which will require time and effort and is certainly taxating as anything of some magnitudo related to roleplay.
Sure thing, buddy. Because there definitely have been no rules about obligatory sex with the lord, panties or anything else that has been mentioned times and times again in all the forum threads where it has been brought up.
You don’t understand, when you’re in the presence of such a prime specimen of man such a Shonn, you can’t control yourself. Why do you think I keep trying to join?
I’ve been enjoying reading this thread, i like reading productive things when they spawn on the forums – just hope the berlusconi retinues appearance doesn’t derail it too much.
Well the idea is to make a living world, of course they have interest, they can set up the recuitment banners in the dimly lit alleys of old town. Get those poor woman off the streets.
It was on their webpage (not sure if it is still there now), both the green panties and “if you are a woman, you may be required to spend night with the lord, because that´s totally how rich landowners (a.k.a. lords of Stormwind) work” (then there was the rule that female character can´t have relationships and refuse the lord).
So yes, if we go into technicalities, there is no obligatory sex with the lord…you don´t have to do it if your character is celibate.
