This is a Moo, you supposed to RP, but who is the judge that decides whether or not I'm RP'in? I mean if I want to go out an kill somebody, I just will, I do not have to ask permission, thats kind of unreal, when is the last time somebody asked you if they could kill you (OOCly, ICly or IRLly! :) ) How are others supposed to tell me how to RP, and say that I was not doing it correctly, what makes them the 'RP God'. This is just my opinion so please get angry, My posting this dont mean I'm gonna go break rulz, I just wanted to vent a little, anyone got a problem with that? -Darkhawk (Evil all the time) -------------------------- Message 2 from *Chat (#5391): Date: Wed Apr 10 14:42:22 1996 CDT From: Eve (#6401) To: *Chat (#5391) Subject: Hmmmmm.... I just finished reading all the new messages on chat (20!) and it seems to me I've heard this story before and the ending never seems to change. I agree that the @commands shouldn't be taken away simply because a select few abuse them. In regards to an ooc panel....I sent Quinn a note on this matter weeks ago but never heard anything on it. I suggested to him that some kind of simple justice system be set up that can be used icily and oocly, consisting of elected judges and jurors with many alternates so that people wouldn't have to wait to long if the "officials" weren't logged in. I went into more detail in my letter to Quinn but I don't feel like doing that now. I seem to remember Frapp suggesting a petition system.....I like that idea and I think it could have may uses. I think it's wonderful that everyone talks about the problem on here, and it's done eloquently and intellingently, but unfortunately talk is cheap. I know the Wiz's are busy coding but maybe we need to tell them..."please fix these problems first." What's the use of all the wonderful things they create for us if we can't enjoy them because of the abuses on here? I'm sorry for my nonsensical ramblings....I haven't had enough caffeine yet. For the record I'm against @toading and I agree that informing the abuser of the abuse and trying to rp it should be the first course of actions. -------------------------- Message 3 from *Chat (#5391): Date: Wed Apr 10 14:47:59 1996 CDT From: Moonheart (#6143) To: *Chat (#5391) Subject: Darkhawk Player killing ends the chance to Roleplay.

I'm one to know, i was killed many a time, and i did not give up and either @reroll or @recycle my char, I just bit my lip and tried harder, so i can soon kill all of ya :) {keep on dreamin} I have tried to start things for the evil chars, but I'm waiting for the wizzin to answer me back. -Darkhawk -------------------------- Message 6 from *Chat (#5391): Date: Wed Apr 10 15:40:26 1996 CDT From: Yroshi (#6068) To: *Chat (#5391) Subject: Evil Characters Not that Darkhawk wants my defence but I'm going to throw it in anyway. I cant say I have seen or heard him do anything "illegal" for some time. I have had a little bit of RP contact with him lately and he has done a very good job in my oppinion. Sorry though DH..reputations are hard to get rid of. On to the evil character issue. I for one love a good evil character. Hell..some call me an evil character. I've even been called a rapiest on here lately?? which is rather hard to be considering I've a fig leaf for under all the armor. And the wife in RL would beat me sensless. But anyway..as I said I do enjoy the evil characters. But Player killing just out of boredom is not evil to me..its just boring as well. Plus the fact that it does scare off some potentially good players. The adversary rule was put here for that fact. Player killing become way too commen. Some remember most of the sewer people walking around Icly or oocly and just attacking anything in sight. It gets old fast. Characters like Zillah and a few I wont mention becuase some of you dont know they are evil are much more intresting. They wreak havoc in a much more subtle way. The way they do things creates RP for much longer time and includes many people. Dont get me wrong. I think player killing should be allowed. Just not becuase you dont have anything better to do with your time. It is much more realistic with killing going on. But those who dish out those killings should not be upset when it comes right back on you Icly. I dont know how many times I've confronted a character Icly about killing a Ic friend of mine and this person rushing off to the mail room or something. Then pageing me for the next half hour with how much an ass I am. One more thing. I dont think we have to rely on wizzards for our plots. Sometimes we do need there help in something but there are plenty of things we can do with just some imagination and good plotting. Sorry bout all the spamming lately.

I'd like, however, to discuss 'publication of punishment.' While I see that it's frustrating to be left in the 'dark' after making formal complaint about ongoing abuses, I don't believe that not informing players of the actions taken is the -same- as taking no action. It's evident, though, that game morale suffers when this kind of frustration runs high. And so, I'd like to assure you that your complaints are taken seriously; that they are documented insofar as the same is possible; that the wizards here care about the game and love it as much as you do. For many players, GW represents a first experience in ongoing roleplaying. It was for me. It takes some of us longer to learn the ettiquette and the universally held rules of 'good' RP. When these lessons come to us ICly, I think the experience is a richer one. For those of you who think PK'g because you are 'bored' is acceptable RP, think again. This game isn't meant to be DOOM w/o sound and graphics. If you find you are bored, go vist a DIKU Mud for awhile and kill stuff till your heart's content. And do read the game documents here. Disregard them at your own risk. While PK'g is acceptable here, doing it as a hobby (or your major thrill) at GW can result in your being @toaded. In fact, other than hacking system security, it's the only officially @toadable offense I know of here. -------------------------- Message 8 from *Chat (#5391): Date: Wed Apr 10 19:35:10 1996 CDT From: Nebula (#1730) To: *Chat (#5391) Um, how's about a Tattoo on eir forehead corresponding to the crime and not removable until removed upon true repentance...or a fragrance to precede and follow em...or a BELL! so folks know the monster/leper approacheth? -------------------------- Message 9 from *Chat (#5391): Date: Wed Apr 10 19:36:51 1996 CDT From: Nebula (#1730) To: *Chat (#5391) urgh...removed by concensus. -------------------------- Message 10 from *Chat (#5391): Date: Wed Apr 10 19:41:00 1996 CDT From: Eve (#6401) To: *Chat (#5391) ....or a scarlet letter? -------------------------- Message 11 from *Chat (#5391): Date: Wed Apr 10 19:41:49 1996 CDT From: Lamia (#3623) To: *Chat (#5391) Subject: Neb's *Heh* -------------------------- Message 12 from *Chat (#5391): Date: Wed Apr 10 19:42:29 1996 CDT From: Nebula (#1730) To: *Chat (#5391) Re:101 here.

So many letters. Well, first of all I had been under the impression that 'Adversary' was for people who were allowed to attack with intent to kill without any reason what so ever. You look at 'em wrong, us er, use the wrong analogy, have your shirt open one button too many, and *schwoop* your head's gone. Some fun. For self-proclaimed Evil pcs w/o this status, I had assumed that killing wuz ok but that there had to be some sort of motive behind it. I don't mean 'she killed the cainid I wounded' or 'it was the fastest way to get a throwing dagger.' Those are impulses, not true motives. I believe this was why 'Motivations Good' and 'Motivations Evil' were added to 'game'. If you're Evil, then read the note, decide what you want to rp (assuming more appear, or make your own) and stick to it. Have a plan. I think killing should be allowed for Villians, but that the more random aspect of it be restricted to only those with Adversary status. Those with 'good' motivations tend to stick to them, I think it's fair to expect the the same from nasties. On the other hand, I personally have been in situations where where one o' the buggers gets trapped and then instead of taking er lumps goes to the mail room or suffers an opportune disconnect. The reason why it gets 'whined' about is because there's little that is more irritating and damaging to what may have been an interesting rp session. For those of you out there tempted to keep using it, remember: Both @icly and @oocly due to the EAGLE etc death is fairly temporary. If you are cornered by primarily good pcs, chances are you won't be killed. I'm not saying things won't happen to you; yes, you'll be injured, stunned, lose stuff etc, but that's part of the fun of having your devices turned against you. If you experience this a few times perhaps next time a plan will be constructed and executed to make sure your victims can't raise a militia. I personally tend not to kill merely because people don't seem to learn anything from it. Stunning someone and leaving the offender in an unfrequented area or even applying a little crippling here or there will linger in the memory alot longer and is also more realistic. --Elendil -------------------------- Message 16 from *Chat (#5391): Date: Thu Apr 11 14:51:05 1996 CDT From: Zillah (#5587) To: *Chat (#5391) Subject: Evil characters. This is in response to a lot of postings I've seen here. (Egad, stay home to clean just one night and arrive to 20 posts the next day...) First off, Darkhawk, there is an evil group of people already, we call ourselves EIC (Evil in Cooperation) and all of us have ADVERSARY status or are applying for it. We do not run around PKing mainly for the reasons that Yroshi, Moonheart and Elendil stated in their posts. Playing an evil character is a huge responsibility and setting up tinyplots (which we have several in the works) take more than getting bored and running round killing people. In fact, I am proud to say that I have never sent a play er to the midrealm. (Red and Tempest were looking for a reason to kill off their characters, my illness tp simply provided them with that, my intention for it was not death, and the disclaimer was put in the letter that circulated around GW.) Elendil and Moonheart, you are both right. By Pking, all you are doing is stripping away the rp elements. PKing is a last resort for me. And if I get bored, I have an alt here to run to and play with, or I hunt on GW plains. Boredom is NOT an excuse or a reason to go about killing players. Zillah, daughter of darkness and official Adversary. -------------------------- Message 17 from *Chat (#5391): Date: Fri Apr 12 09:08:43 1996 CDT From: Naxos (#9972) To: *Chat (#5391) As for Darkhawk comments, if you kill someone? well everyone will kill you on sight, that simple, not fun... -------------------------- Message 18 from *Chat (#5391): Date: Fri Apr 12 11:43:04 1996 CDT From: Kara (#3779) To: *Chat (#5391) As someone who despises stat building and pking, I find man-hunts and rampant violence rather dull. If you want to do that, why not go buy a video game or something? The graphics and difficulty level are much higher..a 10-move combo, or whatever, on MK3 is quite a bit more challenging than typing in a "kill" command. I mean, really. As far as violence in general though, -role-played- violence I find to be much more interesting. The threatening, implicit comments, suggested hints of what to come, good arguments, etc. are much more interesting, to me at least,than rampant killing, pcs or otherwise. Hack and slash is just dull. Mental violence, as such, is much more interesting.... Just my two cents worth.... -Kara- -------------------------- Message 19 from *Chat (#5391): Date: Fri Apr 12 21:32:25 1996 CDT From: Naxos (#9972) To: *Chat (#5391) just an idea, try stunning an opponent, and don't take anything, or kill them... seems a bit better... -------------------------- Message 20 from *Chat (#5391): Date: Sat Apr 13 03:23:22 1996 CDT From: Nebula (#1730) To: *Chat (#5391) Re: Elindil and shallows.

Well, there's no real reason aside from the fact that at the moment submariners can't. The general gist of what I was trying to express was that most 'areas', even the subway tunnels and wasteland cities, are accessible from a variety of ways and locations. The entire ocean(s), however is not. I suggested making shallows because this would resolve the issue of submariners inaccountably not being able to take to the water on such places as Jizo or Toosay should the need arise, without requiring the effort necessary to create larger sections of ocean which, to be honest, would be more realistic. I know the oceans, in order to be truly 'realistic' would be vast and nearly unconnected if the issue of shorelines was ever going to be addressed so I thought tacking a few rooms unconnected to anywhere else would be a nice patch. The key word here is 'thought'. This is *chat, not *demand and if/when and of the musings that flit across the newsgroup conflict with delicately balanced ecosystems or whatever, then they won't be used. I just thought it would be a nice fix to the fact that, for example, on jizo I can wade out to a line of bouys in the water but I can't duck under. --Elendil -------------------------- Message 22 from *Chat (#5391): Date: Sun Apr 14 00:55:33 1996 CDT From: Yjezra (#5288) To: *Chat (#5391) Subject: Water off Jizo There is a place you can 'swim' off Jizo.

First off, I'm back from my trip. Second, getting some strange pages from people looking for Red Fangs Incarnate. He don't exsist. Red Fang is dead, is soul past on to the after life. Don't bother me with it.. Yes, Frap is Red's alt, but he is not Red and I won't play the Red Fang character again, it is past. The only reason you should know this is because of ooc reasons, icly Frap did not know Red Fang that well and only heard the basic rumors about the chap. So again, stop looking for Red Fang, he's dead and buried. If you want to talk to me about something personal and oocly then talk to Frap, I won't tell who the new character is, he won't be much of a player from what I see so don't worry about it. I just want to be left alone by most and enjoy what I have left of this game and the company of the friends I have here.

It's more likely, though, that it's an item your character has not used in awhile, and has been pulled to drop elsewhere in the game, where it -will- be used. If you don't think either of these contingencies were the reason for the disappearance, ask for some help in locating it. Even if you don't get it back, at least you'll know why it 'left.' -------------------------- Message 28 from *Chat (#5391): Date: Tue Apr 23 01:32:46 1996 CDT From: Frap (#6337) To: *Chat (#5391) Subject: Howdy Hello everyone, Thought we could have a little inocent fun here.. how about posting your most original GhostWheel Joke..

Because I've roleplayed elsewhere and EVERYBODY plays bloodthirsty killers. I mean it's always the vogue thing to do. Me? I like being a little different. I figured pacifism would be more of a challenge, and I was right! I was sitting with my wife at a Red Lobster yesterday discussing this MOO, and my recent experiences with death and disembowlment at the hands of "ruffians" like Thanatos and Drago. And it really stirred our appetites, let me tell you! Unlike some who take roleplay very seriously, I see it as a way to practice my acting skills, and enjoy other people's company. I don't mean to belittle it for those who take it VERY seriously, but it's just fun from my perspective. Not much more. By the way this is "Zach" talking OOC. This ain't "zachnlis" my IC character. I'm not even sure at this point if zachnlis knows how to read yet. Anyway, I'm getting off topic. The wife and I were joking about the whole thing. And we started putting together from our humourous conversation a few things which might make People Killing online obsolete, or at the very least more fun for those of us not interested in People Killing, or those who People Kill. Some of it actually could be useful. Some of it was just silly. But the thing is I can't do major code, and I need to talk to some wizards about the feasability of some of this. Being a newbie, I don't know how to go about doing that. Some of the ideas are not what I can discuss in HERE, because it's inner roleplay type stuff that not everyone would know about. So I would like to discuss with someone important the feasibility of some ideas I have. How might I go about doing that? Also, for any fellow pacifistic players out there, I would like to begin communicating both ICly and OOCly with you, so please page me if you are a character in here that believes beating up on the beasties is cool, but beating up on fellow players is stoopid. If you finger me and read the part about pacifism, you'll get a gist of the sort of direction I personally and humbly suggest we go with this. I also ask any and all wizards with the time to finger me at your earliest opportunity, and show me asap the INfeasability of anything I'm suggesting. Just please give me a chance to speak my piece first. YES I'm long winded! I'll stop for now. I'm just so pleased as punch with myself that i figured out how to post a message in here. Maybe now I won't have to leave notes in the R/T Lounge. =) signed, An invisible midget (the OOC counterpart to zachnlis) P.S. For those of you who have not yet figured it out, I play zachnlis as an amnesiac who is insane, but not in the same way that the "insanity points" offer. This is a noncoded insanity that is not sociopathic. Something in his past was so bad he had to block it out, and it's driven him mad. Consider him the "village idiot" of Gatewheel. For more information, feel free to page me, and as always, pay no attention to the invisible midget. -------------------------- Message 51 from *Chat (#5391): Date: Sat Apr 27 15:57:31 1996 CDT From: Quinn (#2) To: Quinn (#2) and *Chat (#5391) test -------------------------- Message 52 from *Chat (#5391): Date: Sat Apr 27 17:21:30 1996 CDT From: Quinn (#2) To: *Chat (#5391) Subject: here, CS, departures, complaints Lemme get this straight: Tadewi left Ghostwheel to do some R&R on CYBERSPHERE? Something must be seriously wrong when Ghostwheel is the madhouse and Cybersphere is Disney World. Things get done on Cybersphere, Yes. And often very quickly! Here's how they get done: (A) A rogue god summarily @toads the alleged wrongdoer. (B) A suggested feature is slapped out in half an hour, praised by impatient players but moaned at by weary programmers as a Rube Goldberg contraption powered by luck. (C) A player hoarding knowledge of a cheat takes "justice" in his own hands and wipes out seventy PCs. I was going to list a few more, but they were a bit too slanderous and I *do* still have respect for some CS admins. After all, it was founded and is operated by a company in which I am a partner--and by myself personally. I was the second god. I don't want to stray into a CS-bashing. I'll leave it at this: I don't frequent CS much anymore. The point of this post is that things get done at CS, but they get done BADLY. Yeah, things are slow here, but they're GOOD and slow. You have a problem with a wizard, tell me. Tell me straight. Tell me WHO it is. I don't have time to deal with "one of your wizzes is bad" notes from anonymous guests. I will not @toad you or reprimand you in any way for reporting an abuse of power. I've @toaded once in the life of this MOO, and I didn't like doing it then. Problems will be dealth with, but they won't be dealth with unfairly or with knee jerk kicks. For all GMs listening: If you are abusing your powers, if you have a feeling you MAY have been abusing them unwittingly, tell me. By doing wrong against players you're not hurting them so much as you're causing me extreme discomfort.

I am here OOC to have fun. The character I have chosen to play does not kill "peoples" as he calls them, which translates to fellow players. He attack "beasties" which translates to computer generated nonplayer characters. He does this because he likes the crystals. zachnlis likes sparklies. He's too dim to theorize that these crystals might be souls. He's not that smart. His mental abilities are the lowest stats on his character sheet. Finger me if you wish. In fact, I encourage it, so you know what you're looking at when i walk into a room. Recent events have informed me, a fledgling greenhorn to this MOO, that killing fellow players in the game is completely acceptable, so long as the killer can come up with some sort of IC excuse to do so. I personally find such behaviour uninteresting, and no fun to roleplay. If you LIKE to kill fellow players for whatever reason, you have two choices. 1) Ignore me. Let me know OOC that as far as you are concerned my character doesn't exist. I will do the same to you. This is the FAIR way to handle it. 2) kill me at every opportunity. Every time you see me in the room, just kill me. Don't come up with some cockamamie excuse. Just get it over with. If that's what you're here for, let's not sugarcoat it, shall we? Consider me a target for your personal whims and violent fantasies. Think of me as one of those zombies in DOOM. I will respond most probably by being a really boring kill. My character will not fight back. He's a pacifist. He will not attack "peoples", even when provoked. He's also not bright enough presently to know when to just run. I might change that, but it doesn't seem in character for him to run at present. zachnlis believes that everyone has good inside them. He's too naive to know when to run. The kid has amnesia for crying out loud. He's got scrambled eggs for brains. Also, most probably, if you start actually sending coded killing attacks towards zachnlis, it will drop me out of character, because I simply will not enjoy the display. If it's not fun for me, I ain't gonna make it fun for you. I'm calling on The Consent Rule here, and I'm sure I'll get more wizards siding with Pkers on this who will not accept it. Fine. If enough bitch, I'll just leave the MOO. I'm sure you won't miss yet another player walking away because of this. You'll just continue on. I really like this MOO, and until recently had no arguments or complaints. I still don't really, at least not yet. I'm sure rational adults can come to agreement on this subject. I give no other player permission to kill me. I will not provoke you with actions. I see no reason to expect such treatment from others. zachnlis may say things you see as a provocation, but they are JUST WORDS. zachnlis' bark is just that. There's no bite. No sting. You still have a problem with that, take it to me, or a wizard. I hope I have made myself clear. Please page or mail me at your earliest convenience if this still makes no sense to you.

Who the hell ever said it was originally designed as such? This is an RPG MOO, heavy on the VR, with coded combat and social features because they further the overall goal of the MOO, which is to be a good RPG. Of course, there are obviously players who are more combat oriented like you, Restin, there are players who are more RP oriented, like Zillah, and there are players who are more interested in the social dynamics and extending the virtual reality like me. This MOO encompases them all, and you have to treat everyone with at least a minimal amount of respect and courtesy for it to work. Just because something doesn't fit within your ideals of what this MOO should be doesn't mean you can give them any less respect or courtesy. I don't agree with the other wizzen on alot of things. I'm not a heavy RPer, and I don't spend my time here killing stuff. My goal is to make this place's as real as I can. To make this someplace where you can go and loose yourself in the virtual world. But you can only code so many things that make the world great. The ace card of the whole matter is other people, and if those other people aren't courteous, nothing works. Just because one of the other wizzes doesn't agree with me, or things we should institute something that I don't agree with, I don't ignore them or throw a fit, I respect them for their point of view, and try to work it out. Our strength here isn't in that we all agree on everything, it's that we don't all agree, but still maintain some semblance of order. From different perspectives come different solutions, and that's what makes this MOO so great. Ghost wouldn't be so neat if all the wiz's were programmers and all the players were 25 year old RPers who'd played RPGs all their lives. Ghost wouldn't be so neat if all the wiz's were VR nuts and all the players were escapism junkies. It's our diversity that makes Ghost special. Unfortunetly, things go wrong, people get offended, and the system doesn't always solve the problems. But we're trying, and we're trying together, and that's what makes Ghost great. - Mulder -------------------------- Message 56 from *Chat (#5391): Date: Mon Apr 29 00:24:17 1996 CDT From: zachnlis (#11697) To: *Chat (#5391) Subject: To Restin... You said in your previous post: "because, you see, once you master teh beasties, whats left?? besides othere players.., tell me if im wrong, but, what do you do??" Oh, I don't know. Maybe ROLE PLAY???? Nah. Can't be that. That's far too obvious! I almost just zapped this MOO after Restin's message. If it weren't for Mulder's statements, I'd just pick up my toys and go home like a good little crybaby. But Mulder's right. What makes this MOO better than any of the other MOOs out there that I've run into is the diversity. You really never know what's waiting for you around the bend. That's fun. I like that. But I say again, if I wanted to play "people killer" or "hunt and be hunted" type stuff, I certainly don't need to do that online. I've got DOOM and other games. If that was my interest, I'd still be playing them. But I like the interactivity of the MOO. I like the fact one can concoct the "graphics" and "sound effects" in your head. There's alot of great things about GhostWheel. I'm not knocking it. What I am saying is that I do not come here to get killed all the time because I looked at someone the wrong way. That's stupid. It shows a lack of creativity upon those who resort to such activity. I'm here to roleplay. I'm here to have fun. Social stuff? I don't know. Yeah I guess I can get into that too, but there's other MOOs for social stuff too. Ghostwheel offers a wild combination of everything. That's why I guess in the end I'm not zapping it. Just don't zap ME all the freakin' time for nothing. That's what I'm trying to say. Oh, and Restin, I never asked for your help. I'm glad if I get it. I thank anyone who has assisted me in this MOO. But when I'm killed by a fellow player, I won't be asking for help. At that point, I won't be playing in character anymore for that period of time until I get healed back up, because it will cease being fun, and I won't play in character around those who attack me any longer, because it will be blatantly obvious that is not why THEY are here.

Where might there be a Moo or Mud or Muse or what have you which is 70% roleplay, 20% social and 10% combat oriented? I've yet to find such a place, and have been looking everywhere. Ghostwheel seems to be an equal combination of the three, which makes it the best place yet of all those I've encountered.

Well, while checking my inventory, I noticed that two of my weapons were missing, a throwing dagger and a katana. The throwing dagger I'm not worried about but the katana has great IC signifigance to Tadewi and I'd like to know what happened to it. It was just a simple katana named lightning.

This may not belong in *Chat, but in the interests of making sure the problem is known, since it seems to be rather unnerving, I decided to go ahead and post it here. It seems that the replicators, upon creating a item, and removing that item out, are calling the items removed, irregardless of their original generic, a generic player. Now, when that item is removed and placed into a inventory, doing a 'i' shows no name beside the item, only a db#. However, @examining that item, shows it to be a true child of the generic, after all. What appears to be happening, is that the generics are erronously being called generic players, when being removed from the replicators, and in addition, something is causing the name to be erased, when that item is removed. As a example, look at the following, where I attempted to create a generic from clothing: You key in your request on the replicator. Replicator: *bing* "Replication successful." You open the replicator. You remove generic player from the replicator. You close the replicator. Fairly unorthodox. :) When I removed the clothing from the replicator, I used the command 'remove clothing from replicator', as well, rather than remove generic player, or whatever. This doesn't seem to affect the quality of what is produced by the replicator, but it does make things a bit confusing, to say the least. :) Ykorasivtch -------------------------- Message 81 from *Chat (#5391): Date: Sat Jun 1 22:05:23 1996 CDT From: Yjezra (#5288) To: *Chat (#5391) Subject: Ooops!

First being summer and a lot of people away from gw at the moment its hard to evaluate anything because lack of interaction. There are only 2 classes that I know of that have any organization stucture, the Subbies and the Dragonriders. (the saying, the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence might apply here) I think the subbies are allowed more freedom to interact in the game, where the DR's rarely are off their mountain and are restricted into boredom half the time.. (this might of changed.) All in all though both these organizations are well ran though and add alot to the game.. Mages are up and coming still and I see no organization as of yet, they are working on it and I think they add alot to the game. Recombs are great, they have zero organization and are usually in trouble most of the time, but I think they are a fun bunch to interact with.. As for the rest, ie: Sewer People and Techorder.. I thought the Sewer People were a large joke, and have not seen this Tech order do anything. I hope I got them all.. I'm not sure of the classes at large and I think the average crystal hunter is one of the greatest contributers to the game. -------------------------- Message 99 from *Chat (#5391): Date: Mon Jul 1 11:41:59 1996 CDT From: Aheroke (#12152) To: *Chat (#5391) Subject: Recombs...

Mages: So far, so good. I know things are being done and organized and it's good to see. It might be nice to have some guilds of mages cropping up, and perhaps different types of mages, i.e. the Druid class. Dragonriders: I do agree that the riders are cloistered, but I don't agree that the are left on the Mount to total boredom. Having a DR alt, there are things going on there. However, it'd be nice to see the DR's interacting more with the lowlanders. Actually, it'd be nice to see more all-class encompassing mega plotlines. =) Crystal Hunters: I run into and role play with quite a few of them. With no organization and no restrictions, they have the most freedom to make the most interesting characters and it's great to see that. Submariners: Well organized with set traditions and laws. It's lovely to role play with Submariners, especially those well versed in the class terminology and the like. Soulmechs: Er, what's up with them anyway? Druids: Like the idea, would like to see more of them wandering around. Gypsies: It started off good, then dropped off suddenly. What happened there? It's nice to have the class located in New Orleans, gives the area a reason and a use. Can any classes be centered in Austin also? TechOrder: This is much needed, but I don't know all that much about the class itself. There is a lot of magic and wonder at the moment, but more technology is needed to reinforce that there is more than just magic and that machines and vistages of the old world still exist. Sewer People: I think the idea is sound, but it lacks guidance of someone who's been here for a long time. With some touching up and new additions and recruiting, it could be a great addition. Recombs: I agree that something needs to be done for them. Some have formed packs, but I think that there's too much vagueness in the class by itself. What is there exactly that a recomb can do? What is their purpose exactly? What alternatives do they have? EIC: Well, I like it because I think the evil players need some kind of organization as it is, to keep a leash on the ones who have no idea how to play an evil character and instead hack and slash. That's all I can think of at the moment. Am I leaving out any classes? I hope not.

There's some excelent RP potential for recombs, steming from the fact that we ARE artificial life forms manufactured by a major company. But so far, I haven't even been able to FIND anyone who works for Dakiron (altho' I have heard Shadowfax has tried to hire people to "erase" recombs, but only once, and with no follow up). Also, as the only truly non-human race available (well, there's that insect fellow, can't remember his name, but there's only one of him) , there's a significant potential for racial conflict that hasn't really been explored.

I like the class but as Aheroke stated, we have no organization. (BTW Aheroke, I work for DAK. Read my plan. I am supposed to anyway.) The recombs need someone/some plan to guide us and help some players with their descriptions and to understand WHAT they are. Crystals Hunters: Strange but we all are if we hunt and collect them. I have RP'd with many and have enjoyed myself, but don't know enough about their class to state if they need more. DragonRiders: I have seen alot of Rp and done some with them also. My char does not like the dragons-a racial/inter breed thing. I see them 'down' quite a bit and have overheard of stuff going on 'up' there with the class, so no suggestions or comments here. Submariners: They have a close knit group when I see them on land, have no idea of in their home environment but what I have overheard. (Aint second-hand knowledge great?) But there have been some complaints about not enough goin on in the sea. Seems that there should be more done in their own environment. Cyborgs: The only one I know of and have RP'd with is Slayer. Excellent RP. This class could use some work. Mages: Ahh, wonderful class. I see alot of RP with this class also. I also overheard of some -- leadership -- plans. This class is up and coming. Nothing more to say on it. SewerPeople: I also think this class was a joke. I have seen nothing come of it except squabbling and some players using it as an excuse to PKill. TechOrder: I think this class needs some guidance, but is a good idea. I have Rp'd with several members and they seem to be trying to organize and get things going. Wizzen help obviously needs to be added to this class. Some of their ideas are good, but need 'solid' objects, can only RP so far. SoulMech: Would love to see this.

It is funny how a kidnapping of anykind is usually over in minutes. Never allowed to go full course or to entertain the minds of anyone for long. We all complain of pkers, we all shout for more rp and less hack and slash, but when it comes down to a plot, people use their stats still to solve the problem.. Mages imparticular have been used to end many tps that would otherwise gone on for a few days.. Don't take me wrong, but take Red's Keep out in the wasteland, a hard to find local and distant and unknown to most. three times at least he was killed there only because within minutes of his actions a group followed by a high mage would show up and kill him ending the plot. Even if it was a sloppy job it should of taken longer game time to find him. Same thing happens with the EIC and Slayer. No thought goes into it, only one person finding out info that icly would of taken him longer deliever and longer to deciper almost instantly brings down the tp. Then in a instant, the justice system quickly despenses itself on the situation and that is that. What I am saying is this, Tp's can't work icly here unless some things are taken slower. Investigations and clue gathering.. But that never happens. GW over all area icly is a large area, but in minutes a group of vigilate glory seekers can be at a door step. But then on the other hand.. It takes a baby dragon over a year rl to grow into a flying machine.. This does not make since. Also there is the problem with lag, people being away from the keyboard, and players generally having to log off for one reason or another. Nothing fun last long enough, and no one takes these things into concideration to extend the plot for the people that would have to leave for a bit to come back and find it over and not even having the chance to take part. So, Frap interveined on these accounts, where most would of knocked Slayer out ending the tp, I choose to knock Yjezra out continuing the tp farther so taht others could enjoy it. That is all, was just on my mind and I've seen it happen to often.

Frap, I recall a kidnapping that lasted several days, where Red Fang kidnapped Yjezra and took her to his place in the Wastes. Yes, a Mage helped find her, along with her dragon and others, and Red did get killed, though she tried to stop it. And yes, some TP's move along too fast. But there are several going on right now that are rather drawn out. Slayers most recent kidnapping links into it, sorta, but there are others going on also at this time, one that will take a while. Has anyone found the poor child of Yseult? Dragons take 4 irl months to mature to young adults, not a year. This has been in effect since Red Fang was a dragonRdier, just before he left the riders.

This is my request for a pet for my character Ghost. The following are the details of my request. What is it? Giant, three-toed sloth named Binky. Why do I want it? Binky would be my faithful companion and packhorse. He would slurp up crystals for me and hold my loot. Where did I find it? I was roaming the great wastes of ghostwheel when I heard this bleating cry. I ran to see what it was. Much to my horror I saw Binky, he was just a baby then, being taunted by two Wendigo! Even though I was scared I drew my trust blade 'sushi' and charged. Binky watched the fight wild eyed. I managed to drive the Wendigo's off but sustained major injuries. Binky licked my wounds reviving me so I could heal myself. Turning in an application does not gaurentee a pet. The judgement is also made on how long you have been here and your reputation.

I will try to clarify this. Daan was created for the use of guests and non-rider residents to the Mount. This is because there is not alway a Rider available to transport them back and forth. It is also ICly assumed that residents and guests are able to ICly get rides from other riders and their dragons. They can get picked up from the Helipad or any other areas the Dragons can reach by 'calling' the Mount for a ride. ICly there is always a few riders around on guard, patrol or just doing what ever. DR's do not maintain normal everyday scheduals. Neither do some of the residents. It is impractical and not kosher to add every guest or resident to every Riders dragon. (Would you want someone borrowing your new Ferrarri and racing at Indy without your knowledge or permission?) It is also impractical for us to have more 'transport' dragons than Daan. About Residents to the Mount. Why would we have only riders up here? Not all of us will marry other riders. What is the old adage about familiarity breeds contempt? There is not contempt in this case, but often our heart will be given to those outside our Class. Is this bad? Why? The mates of riders and residents will live with us (If they wish)..part of our family, and we are a family in many senses of the word. We fight among ourselves at times, we help each other, we enjoy each others company (usually) and we defend one another. Though large and extended..is this not a family? We also have those who reside up here because they help us as they help others. We may have granted them safety and healing, found we loved them and invited them to remain with us. All on the Mount contribute to the infostructure. All are vital to our continuing existence and safety in one way or another. We have guests occassionally. Often they are the personal guests of individual riders or residents. Occassionally, as now, we have others here for a short time. We are a private people about our Home, protective of it and of our privacy...and the Mount IS our home. They have rules and responsibilities as Guests, just as Dragons, Riders and Residents do. About unwanted riders on the dragons. It isnt coded yet, but if you think a moment, why would a highly intelligent creature allow someone it doesn't know, or knows to be an enemy 'mount' him/her? ICly it isnt gonna happen folks. If you have trouble RPing this, then you will be happy to know that soon there will be special verbs on the dragons to stop anyone unwanted from mounting any dragon. There is no VR way, other than puppeting the dragons to give them intelligence. If we begin inventing Hyper-Realism, our Moo will lag worse than it does now, even with a new machine. It also takes away from the RP value of the Moo. I would be greatly saddened to see us go this route. Other Moo's have suffered this and they are now or soon will be defunct. I appologise for the spam (No I don't!), and I hope this has cleared the muddy waters for all of you who were concerned.

The blue tinge is from their oxygenated blood, comming from their ability thru gills to be able to take oxygen directly into their bloodstream. The eyes are tinged metallic because of the 'shielding' that lays over them allowing them to see longer distances underwater. If everyone would read game Submariner Notes they would see that these are the guidelines that have been set down on the class for close to two years, maybe longer. Just as Recombs have certain restrictions in their appearance, so do Subbies. This does not take away individualism, it adds realism and makes it possible for the Subbie $player to be more exotic than their human conterparts, the drylanders. Any player choosing a class needs to abide by the 'patterns' and rules of said class. Be as much an individual as you wish.

I will state my case as the following. As the game notes do read now, yes I edited them, that Subs have a bluish tint to their skin. It does not say they have to be sky blue or aqua blue or any other kind of deep shade of blue. Of course if they wish to be so, they may be. It says they have a bluish tint. That means it may be barely noticeable. But they would not have the same skin tones as other people on GW. So they do not look like Smurfs unless the player so chooses to have their character do so. The reasoning for doing so is to try and mesh the Subs into a group or unit. As it was before, the only thing different was that they could breathe underwater. They looked like any other class here on GW. That is some, not all. So I instated the following that they needed to basically mention some kind of bluish tint to their skin and have gills as well in their neck. Subs are not normal people. And as it has been mentioned before, Gw is still evolving. Things are going to change. This change is something I felt as the overseeing GM that needed to be done. I offered any Subs who wanted to leave because they did not wish to comply with the slight desc alterations the chance to leave with no penalties towards them. Being slightly blue is just like being of a different ethnic background. People who wish to look like almost however they want should choose to be a Crystal Hunter. As they do not have much if any restrictions on how they look. This desc alteration is the first step of trying to get the Subs into a more coherent group then the bunch they are now. -Kyn *Submariner Admin -------------------------- Message 159 from *Chat (#5391): Date: Sun Jul 28 20:32:02 1996 CDT From: Mulder (#709) To: *Chat (#5391) Subject: New Transportation System All those interested in not getting lost when the 'helicopter' exits from the R/T Helipad go away should probably: @read 28 on *geo You've been warned.

I agree with Quinn; all the bluefuss seems a tad silly, for the following reasons: 1- Given a saline aquatic environment, living beings all have the same problems to deal with; variety results from adaptation to specific niches within that environment that are related to behavior as well as physical conditions. 2- Submariners' variety would certainly be constrained, but only to the extent that extreme variation would compromise fitness to compete and survive to reproduce. 3- Such factors as retention of body heat (which means having goodish fat layers or trapped air under waterproof coats), maintenance of internal fluid balance (fresh water fish dry out in salt water, for example), and so on. 4- Coloration is a question of whether to be easily seen or not; if you want to be found by your kindred, you have to be able to communicate your presence without attracting predators. (If you are toxic and advertise it with bright colors, you've survived because your ancestors were successful educators and the bad guys learned that you're nasty to eat.) Submariners have an interesting opportunity to construct an adaptive heritage that would certainly suit a developing PlayerClass as it serves to support complexity and lots of Lore. As easy as it may be to settle things by declaration, a creative collaboration addressing the reasonableness in a VR sense of having come into being at all might be more fun. As for me, I have imagined the Submariners as having iridescent, rather translucent skin and bright red gills. "Fishbelly" white actually is a bluish white: the light underside helps as camouflage against the bright surface when seen from below. A Submariner medical/biological text in the Library would make fascinating reading for visitors and immigrants. Someday we might even post excerpts (illustrated) on the Web.

I believe I have out around 10-20 out, but can't remember exactley how many and who they all went to. If the owners, or current possesors out there can help me out and just @qsend me your name and the number of the blade you have ( the number should be etched into the blade by the hilt), I'd be really greatful. Thanks in advance. As a reminder to current and future owners/possesors, any long knife that is not described as a long knife is a big 'no-no' since they are unique and special weapons. If one is found desc'd as something else, it may be taken away as per the rules on customizing objects. Also, I have no problems with 'forgeries' like redesc'd daggers as long knives since all great works of art are usually imitated, but be aware that the wizzen may have probs with this.

Then there is a major wiz meeting, stat levels are capped, weapons taken back and locked. Basicly holes in the system as the wiz see it are closed. All this is fine and dandy.. I've GMed AD&D for years back when I was in highschool. It was frustrating spending sleepless nights only to have a group waltz through your work because you left holes. But here on GW there is cheating of another kind going on that nothing is done about. And I'm refering to players like Assassin directly, they want to be bad guys, they run around attacking everyone. But when you attack them, they go ooc and @home, or if you knock them out they have there things locked.. Or they move them to their tents. Then they will disconnect and will stay hidden continuing to play like nothing has happened. GW is filled with many good players that RP fairly and add to the fun of the game. But it is tiring to deal with such players as Assassins. I'd like to congradulate Darkhawk, he has come along way, he plays fairly now from what I can see.. I think that is that.

They get complained about more often:( And more frequently than not, such complaints are groundless. Not always, though. Just because a player sees a way to accomplish something (like stealing from someone else's inventory, or finding a way into their home or whatever) doesn't mean it's not an OOC cheat to take advantage of that fact. That is not 'using the system'.. it's an abuse of trust. Because it's presumed that we *think* before acting. It's presumed you will know that if you have to go OOC to accomplish your IC objective, you will either *not* do it or find a different way to achieve it. The fact that it's possible doesn't make it a good call, and it doesn't mean there's a 'hole' -- I find it kinda sad when hard coded modifactions are made to the game because a few of us consistently refuse to think before acting. -------------------------- Message 196 from *Chat (#5391): Date: Tue Aug 6 21:28:28 1996 CDT From: Morrigan (#10469) To: *Gamemasters (#2560) and *Chat (#5391) Greetings.

It had nothing to do with the use of macro's or cheating. I'd like Quinn to look into who this Speed and Mel are that are only 10 days old with a arsenal that a character that is 2 years old would be envious of. I suspect who they are but won't say here. According to the game Theme and Premise, I think we will only beable to play scrabble here soon. Game balance will be so far off.. Newbies don't have a chance anymore to obtain what older players already have.. Well, unless they stick around for maybe 5 years or so.. But I doubt even that would help.

I've been off-line for a while, and it seems a place called Dixie has been added since last I was here. I was wandering through this location and noticed that most of the rooms I entered had no exit leading back to the place I entered from. At least one place had no apparrent exit at all. This might not be a problem, assuming there is at least _some_ exit in such a room that might eventually be deiscovered, except that this particular room was occupied by a nasty high-level beasty called a Gator which apparently attacks characters automatically. In short, although it took the Gator three or four hits to take me out, I was killed because I had no way to escape. This strikes me as a bug, in the concept of the area, if not in the actual programming of the place. I was, in effect placed into a no-escape death trap situation with no warning. I knew the area was dangerous...I had encoutered a Gator before and knew I couldn't fight one. I escaped the first by running away. I was trying to find a way out of the area, but I couldn't because all the exits were one-way. I was not expecting to be trapped in a cul-de-sac with no means of escape. Given the description of the area, there was no reason why I couldn't have at least run back the way I had came. I accept that there are dangerous creatures on this Moo. Some, like the Chimerae can, and have, killed me with one blow. It is aggravating, however, to be killed by something that takes four or five attacks to finish me because a GM neglected to add exits to an area before opening it up to the public." If such a design was accidental, the area needs to be closed off until it is fixed. If it is deliberate, than the rational behind such a design must be severely questioned. I fail to see the logic behind it." -------------------------- Message 236 from *Chat (#5391): Date: Tue Aug 13 00:00:44 1996 CDT From: Darkhawk (#5041) To: *Chat (#5391) Subject: my opinion, at last. OKay, I've been reading all of this news or junk about boosting and how the older players are too strong, I just have one thing to say about this, the older players all sucked at one time, just like you newbies, but we did not go around picking fights or pissing off the good players, we just practiced. so quit all your whining about us being to strong, we all earned our stats just like you should, there, had to get that out. -------------------------- Message 237 from *Chat (#5391): Date: Tue Aug 13 00:12:30 1996 CDT From: Devon (#13677) To: *Chat (#5391) Darkhawk I do agree with you that you and others earned them, but boosting has been modified, and I can't even break 100 and I do know how to boost stats properly, no offense, just IMNSHO this sucks. -------------------------- Message 238 from *Chat (#5391): Date: Tue Aug 13 00:46:14 1996 CDT From: Yseult (#4778) To: *Chat (#5391) Subject: Darkhawk's opinion. Well, under normal conditions, I would agree with you, Darkhawk, but under normal conditions, it would not be so difficult for newbies with no stats to raise them after the stat boosting was slowed. So, now the newbies are going to complain since they have no way to build up and defend themselves without countless hours of mindless, and IMNSHO boring, sparring to get them up to a level they can feel comfortable with. Now, if people here would not resort to killing people when in a hostile situation, then maybe newbies would feel safer that they won't automatically die for acting IC. I'd rather someone with a smartass character just get taken down a notch or two by someone with a sharp tongue rather than die because someone with a higher bladed and armed stat just didn't like their way of talking. So, I guess the only way to resolve this now is for those who have the superhuman stats to use them responsibly, in other words, don't just get all huffy and kill someone cause you know that newbies are defensels (Erk, defenseless) and you CAN kill them. So force of personality and good rping instead of a high dodge and blunt. Well, there I go on my soap box again, I think I'll step off of it now, for someone with higher stats decides they might want my head. *grin* Ys -------------------------- Message 239 from *Chat (#5391): Date: Tue Aug 13 00:48:06 1996 CDT From: Devon (#13677) To: *Chat (#5391) lets not forget getting toys kile sledge hammers stolen by others, that is also unfair -_ -------------------------- Message 240 from *Chat (#5391): Date: Tue Aug 13 01:31:57 1996 CDT From: Ryft (#13665) To: *Chat (#5391) Subject: Boosting Boosting is not some BAD thing thats killing roleplaying... what WILL kill roleplaying is forcing lower/newer players to mindlessly kill for hours trying to get to a point where they can defend themselves, while you older SUPER characters can just kill without recourse... THAT will change the game to COMBAT orientated, as the higher character don't need to argue... WHY? they can just kill, and the lower character will NEVER be able to challenge... With BOOSTING back to normal a high character can't just kill indiscrimitively, as the lower character can just boost up and challenge back...

Violent emotions are part of this moo..confrontations and combat are as well. So far everyone is right..RP more..Combat less. On the boosting..I thought it used to be that once you hit around 400 on a stat..it slowed down? That was to let new players get to a decent spot..but keep the super players down to a min. But all the supers do need to refrain from useing our powers to much. Its not fun for those under.. But..at the same point. Dont get too cocky around a super player.

Last I knew, that's where you made up a character, gave them a description, a personality and a breath of life and played that character. Well, now we're all fired up over the stats of our characters. Why? Because we sparred for countless hours with them. Ok, that was your choice. There were probably other things to do, don't try to tell me otherwise cause none of my characters have outrageous stats. You know why none of them do? Because I spent my time plotting, planning and roleplaying. I didn't have time to run around trying to build my stats up. Yeah, like everyone else, I sparred sometimes, but it was not the major portion of my time and I found it quite boring. I would much rather be out there interacting with others. Yseult is supposed to be a strong, willful warrior woman. Her only decent stat is blunt. I still play her as a strong, willful warrior woman.

Yes, the system permitted some of us to do this, but do you really think it made any IC sense? I don't. And if it makes no sense ICly, then the score increases gained thereby are not justifiable. It should go without saying that using macros and triggers to spar is a basic cheat.. but I'm saying it anyway. And what is fundamentally wrong with using them is the same: IC you cannot spar hours on end (drooling, injured and crippled) and expect to *improve* your skills. Using triggers just makes sparring for hours a bit more convenient. My character has decent stats. They came from clobbering puppets (and getting clobbered by them). They are not super stats, but they are more than adequate. As to what to do about scores which got out of hand before the system was modified: starting over fresh w/o caps would be fair, I think.

So, Gavin, I do owe you an apology.. you are not supposed to be able to die on the porch (at least not to an AHaB:). And that room has no visible exits for a reason.. it's the first of a series of rooms that you have to think your way through. Standard entrances to them are not 'directions', but words which are discernible if you remember where you are and look at your surroundings.. from the corner where you were killed you could have left via 'porch' or 'stairs.'

I wish more tp's were done with such reality. I think its great when you can play with out any OOC or think interruptions from other players. Im getting a little pissed about the use of OOC when one is tping or rping, from now on if Im in char, and anyone starts speaking to me OOCly, unless it is a specific question to do with the tp or rp that is going on, I will not be answering you. Also, please dont page me and tell me what is going on in a tp Im envolved in, if you have something to say use the damn comm. thats what they are for. And if you dont want to use your comm, turn the fucking thing off...dont be yelling and me and threaten to kill me (and this is ment for that special on...he knows who he is), cause that just pisses me off IRL.

Well, I was just talking to some ppl, asking around to see how I'm gonna measure up to everyone after the stats are set and I found something very interesting...it seems someone that is _much_ younger than me with a higher bladed is actually going to end up with a new bladed that will still be higher than mine. I though the purpose of this stat change was to make it fairer for some of the younger players by trimming down stats according to how old each player is. Now it seems odd to me that a he/she is not being docked more than I am since I have had more time on this MOO to get my stats to where they are. I don't know if this is a bug or something but I'd sure like to know if there's anyone else out there who is younger than I am and will be ending up with a bladed higher than 360. --Skywalker -------------------------- Message 264 from *Chat (#5391): Date: Tue Aug 20 14:11:23 1996 CDT From: Karcass (#6537) To: *Chat (#5391) Subject: Missing katana...

If Yalon knows of Embryon's shapeshifting abilities and is paranoid enough to come up with the plan, then I think it is a good one. Comm units are IC communication devices, and can be used in character for whatever they can be used for. I understand that some people were annoyed by the spam created by this use. That is the complaint that they should be sending to Yalon, not cheating. Throwing around 'cheating' as a weapon is not a good idea. It gets the administration all riled up. So, if Yalon wishes to use his comm unit to try to detect Embryon, he is welcome to do it. However, he must understand that it is liable to upset whoever is roleplaying with him as it is spammy.

If you want to be taken seriously, you gotta sorta Rp it... instead of getting to the big blow up scene right when you come in... nobody knows who you are, and your fake weapons (which is actually against the rules, making a gun out of a broadsword, hrm....) don't help.

The idea in and of itself might have been nice, however, as Alluvia said, creating fake weapons out of broadswords is a no no, one that has been reiterated time and time again. Secondly, the way it was handled was more comedic then serious RP, hence everyone was laughing instead of cowering. Thirdly, there were two first circle mages and one second circle mage there. If you intend to try to bomb a wedding with them there, you're going to get a few nasty surprises. No one at the wedding reacted in a way that was not IC. In fact, Reco, I'd say you were the one who forgot the difference. If you had contacted a wiz, or me even, the plot might have been able to fly. However, something like that really can't be done spontaneously. Some planning needs to go into it. Next time, contact someone and take a little more time and put a little more thought into it.

Now, speaking of plots I come to think on Reco's idea. Everyone had a good reason to laugh at him, why? Because he was dealing with explosivives. I've played on here two years, and just reciently got a shotgun, some things are tightly controlled. Explosives is one of them. If you want ME to respond to your bomb threats, you better have a wiz's name on the bomb item. Because I'm not going to react to a replicated object that you just named Bomb.

I pretty much know for a fact that this has always been played out as the two not being an actual elf and nymph. Read their plans. They _believe_ they are these creatures because they have been surgically and mentally altered to look and behave like them. People RP that that is what they are simply because it is part of the RP. I know Tadewi is dubious of them being the genuine artical, but who is she to really know 100% for sure. I doubt the two of them suddenly decided to use this idea as a way of keeping out of trouble, especially since their plans have told their intentions practically from the beginning. It's rather interesting and certainly original and I don't see anything wrong with them doing it. In a time where recombs are feasible and common, someone being insane enough to attempt creating mystical creatures using science and psychology is rather inventive.

Okay, since everyone suddenly is vastly interested in myself and Sara, here's the entire story, you could read my .plan, and Saraphina's, but hey, I know you guys just love my spam. First off, we have this freaky mad scientist type, known only as `The father of the valley'. He secures a large secluded valley, and begins to meddle in human psychology and genetics.. He's not by far a master at this, a good example being Saraphina, who remembers bits and peices of her conditioning, and who's memory and mind are generally screwy. Elves came as a later project, a while after nymphs had begun. The father of the valley noticed the adverse effects of his conditioning, and tried different methods on his `elves'. They didn't work quite as well, and the elf species slowly escaped bit by bit, set up a resistance, and began to harry the father and his creations. Guirella (sp?) warefare, of a sort, thus explaining some of Rathe's psychology, being rather interested in strategic points, and an area's usefullnes as a fortress. Rathe and Saraphina are rather distinctly different, mentally. Saraphina finds violence disturbing, and often panics whenever someone attacks someone else.. Innocent, as well, in a rather strange way, due in part to her lack of memory. Rathe, on the other hand, can switch between pacifist and an extremely rational view of the world, to an extremely rash, violent state. He can be alternately highly trusting, to extremely paranoid. As for the rest of the valley story, a group of Dragonriders (not nessescarily morlith riders) attacked the valley later on, trying to stop the father of the valley from further experiments. The father ordered his creations to fight the dragons off, some turned on him, and some fought the dragons. Unfortunately, the riders killed off a large number of those aiding them, as well as those that where on the father's side. Rathe escaped shortly after the fight, to come to the R/T complex, and Saraphina was later sold off by the father in an attempt to gain funding for further experiments, and rebuilding of the valley. Okie, that's bout it.. If I missed anything, or erred on some part of Saraphina's character, feel free to correct me.. I'd go more in-depth into rathe, but gotta keep a few surprises up my sleeve ;) --Rathe -------------------------- Message 336 from *Chat (#5391): Date: Tue Sep 17 14:57:07 1996 CDT From: Gustav (#12511) To: *Chat (#5391) Subject: Boxing Ring Does anyone know where Judy is? -------------------------- Message 337 from *Chat (#5391): Date: Tue Sep 17 16:33:27 1996 CDT From: Balth (#3746) To: *Chat (#5391) Subject: An official ruling on scanners Yalon asked some interesting questions, questions that had been brought up before. It has been discussed on *gm, and this is the result: After reading #2912 (BioManual) in the infirmary, the consensus was thus: 1. Injury. Sure. This is IC 100%. Mobility, too. 2. Name. No. According to the biomanual, it accesses a central db to acquire the patient's medical history. If you want your character to be in this db, sure, then you may ICly see your name. If you do not know someone's name ICly, then you may not type it into your scanner to find out info about him/her, either in the same room or remotely. 3. Physical stats. Yes and No. According to the biomanual, you get an *average* based on your species, if you are not stored within the db. If you elect to have your character in the db, then people can see your info. Otherwise, they get this something like this: Dexterity - Above average. You would not be seeing specifics of a character if they are not in the db. So, most of the information your scanner gives you is actually OOC unless a character says to you, who is scanning, 'I am in the db.' Hopefully this clears some things up.

I am going to try and clear this up. The soulbonded dragon has a connection with their rider, so if that rider is attacked they know and can see it. That dragon may, upon the discretion of the player, attack their rider's attacker. If Daan or another dragon Witnesses an attack on another rider or resident of the Mount that was Unprovoked, they may, again at the discretion of the player, and in keeping with the personality of the Dragon, attack the attacker. The Rule of Consent goes two ways here folks. If a PC uses 'kill ' then that Rider/Dragon also has the right to use 'kill '. Use pages to keep a flow in the RP, use your heads and make things enjoyable for all. If there are questions about what is going on, please page me at any time.

Well, I'm just going to take a moment to basically point out both sides of the story here. Point of view #1: It's extremely annoying to be chasing after some twink who's been ICly harassing you and he/she/it runs into the Guest Chamber or the Lounge where you cannot use combat to extract retribution or KO the person to take them into custody. You can emote it till your heart's content, but the twink isn't going to play along and you know it. Not to mention the fact that the twink continues to ICly taunt you in the lounge/guest chamber, knowing full well that you can't do anything to stop him/her/it. All you can do it wait for the twink to leave the area back to +combat areas. Point of view #2: It's extremely annoying to be constantly killed, KOed, butchered, kidnapped, etc by some twink who is stronger than you stat wise and you have no defense against and who is known not to RP, but simply kill or KO you to take your stuff. And to top it off, the person annoying you is so powerful it'd take you forever and a day to get your stats up that high to be able to strike back or even be good enough to dodge and run away, and if you're mostly RP oriented, it sucks to have to spend hours upon hours sparring to get yourself up there. So, then you have the -combat rooms and voila, the twink can't hurt you there! Boy howdy, they have to RP or leave you alone! Those are both points taken to extremes and I'm sure they cannot be generalized to all GW people. What I'm asking folks is, what is the solution to these problems? How can we work together to come up with an answer to suit the majority of GW PCs, Geos and Teks. Food for thought from your adorable Builder Chick (tm)!

This is just off the top of my head, but it seems to me there is any easy solution to the problem. That being our terribly realistic (i.e. slow and inefficient ;) ) transport system. Instead of making individual rooms -combat, make regions or areas of rooms -combat and make it a slow, ponderous procedure to get from a -combat area to a +combat area. It would make perfect sense for the entire R/T Complex to be -combat, protected as it is by the Eagle. (If I undertand the source material correctly). This solution provides -combat areas to avoid combat-orriented twinks and prevents non-combat oriented twinks from making a quick escape. It's not perfect, but maybe it's a starting point. --Tybon -------------------------- Message 363 from *Chat (#5391): Date: Sat Sep 21 21:24:31 1996 CDT From: Frap (#6337) To: *Chat (#5391) Subject: RE: 456 That would be resonable.. but then the area is in danger of becoming a ooc area.. the Pec room and guest area were warded for new player protection.. that is understandable.

Ok, folks, this is turning into a cute and bitter little battle, why don't we all just take a step back and take a deep breath and calm down. First, you are all right in your own ways. This MOO combines hack and slash, RP, and social all in one. Now the problem arises as factions begin to show themselves. There are those who prefer mostly RP either because rl doesn't allow them to be on enough to spar up to the level of others, or because they simply like emoting as opposed to combat spam. There are those who love the thrill of sparring and looking at their stats and knowing that none of the beasties on Ghostwheel plains can hit them and have the ability to kill just about any player on the MOO. Then there are those who merely hang around, chatting with people and don't ever do much ICly. None of these things are bad in and of themselves. We all have the right to choose what we primarily want to do here. The problem arises when one person wants this MOO to be completely RP or completely hack and slash. We have to compromise folks, we have to work together or all that's going to happen is complete degeneration into bickering and back stabbing and bitter feelings towards each other.

Am I the only imperfect person alive? Yes, I tend to get annoyed at times and say things I shouldnt. But I usualy apologize, and if I dont, its because I didnt realize. If I offend someone, tell me, I'd like to know. I have this knack for putting my foot in my mouth, but I try to apologize for it.

You know, I tend to agree with Oryama on this one. Being a college student about to graduate with a degree in Psychology, I find it fascinating to look into the human psyche and find people willing to run around blowing people's heads off or punching creatures so hard they have to shake blood off their hands, but the moment sexual tention enters the air, they suddenly can't handle it. Basically, I see nothing wrong with that kind of RP if someone wants to participate in it. If you don't, this is a consent based world, don't consent, leave the room and/or page the person and tell them this makes you uncomfortable. Doing any of this after the fact and ranting about the person is pretty lame in my opinion. If you don't alert them to the fact that you are uncomfortable, well, no one here is fully psychic to my knowledge and they aren't going to be able to read your mind. To clarify for anyone going to respond to this, I mean this towards people who may be in the same area, not actually part of the ongoing RP. As for Axelle's postings, I thought them well written and inovative with a unique twist. Only suggestion I can make is to do what Quinn said and put **PG 13** or **Rated R** in the title so when people type @mail on *storylines, they can see that and know ahead of time it may be something they don't want to read. Just as a last note, I've seen posts here on *Chat that I've skipped for language and content more then I ever have on *storylines.

IF you are standing IC somewhere that combat is allowed, you _are_ fair game, with the understanding of course that there is some sort of IC reason. If for example, I were IC, and standing someplace that combat was allowed with 500K of crystals in my hands and I got KO'ed, and the crystals stolen, then I am simply 500K the poorer. HOWEVER, standing someplace like, say, the OOC rooms, or the Guest Chamber/Lounge, where combat is generally coded away from happening, and I was _still_ KO'ed, then yes, there would be a problem. The bottom line is that if you don't want attacked, @OOC!, then make sure you're some where that you can't be attacked, either your @sethomed location, or in one of the non-com areas. Saying you're 'AFK' isn't enough to give you immunity. If you go AFK, telling Crusher that he can't attack you till you get back is all fine and good, but if he leaves, and Masher comes in and sees you standing there, he didn't see what you told Crusher, and ergo, will proceed to fit you into a tuna can. We have these non-combat rooms for just that purpose. To give players a chance to go away from the ICness of GW to chat and socialize, and also for those players to have some safe place to 'stow' their character while 'AFK'. If you're KO'ed while IC in a combat room, you're KO'ed, and what the attacker loots _is_ booty.

I get scared in real life to just go outside most the time, but here icly we'll take the lift to the helipad and find a large ghostly undead dragon and our characters show no emotion at all.. That is where the problem comes in.. How agravating it is. its not proper at all. But it happens more than not with everything o nthis moo. Hawkeye is a big one on this, his ego in the ic lounge where it is warded is emense, you can't tell me most people would be insulting Red Fang like he has.. I have tried to code myself some fear into my characters, I have done some stupid things in the past but I finally got the message we have to at least show some feelings before we type kill or stun.. Also you need to look around you, a giant dragon alive is something to be in awe of , but a big dead one would scare me shitless. So, I'm proposing we have a ooc meeting here soon to discuss some things.. Maybe fear can be coded somehow.. Something that will stop your arm from swinging when your faced with something horrible.. At least this should be on the monsters that can smash you wihtout looking twice.. Stryfe is a pretty ominous character in my book, even Red Fang has never tangled with him. So why should a dweeb like Hawkeye get by with it.. Well, hope you get my point.. Lets talk.

I would have used my _great and powerful_ dragon to wipe HawkEye outta the face of Ghostwheel. just my opinion, and I didn't ever think you had to have consent to kill... -------------------------- Message 594 from *Chat (#5391): Date: Mon Oct 7 16:52:01 1996 CDT From: Synge (#12541) To: *Chat (#5391) Subject: hmm... I think the reason hawk didn't think twice about killing stryfe was cuz of this... REVENGE. Motivations are inevitable in all cases. 1) why did he kill? 2) why the kynwal kill HawkEye? 3) why do we need fear coded in the first place? Hawk prolly looked at Stryfes atts and thought he'd be pretty easy to beat, and since Hawk had a motive, why do we need to post anymore? (spam... waking at 6am with 39 posts to read :) ) anyway, I don't know what to say. I am voicing my opinion, 'cause each to his own'. -------------------------- Message 595 from *Chat (#5391): Date: Mon Oct 7 16:55:16 1996 CDT From: Kynwal (#1610) To: *Chat (#5391) Subject: Me and my OOC actions What I did was a blatant disregard for the rules. I use this body to do it as getting ahold of Hawkeye is a helluva of alot easier this way. Stryfe was killed while i was on another screen with Ell in the room. Thinking back it is a shame dragons do not protect their riders on auto. At any rate, I will sit here in Tarterus till Quinn doles out whatever he feels is just.

Kynwal pays for a crime that Hawkeye should of paid a million times for. QUINN GIVE KYNWAL A METAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -------------------------- Message 597 from *Chat (#5391): Date: Mon Oct 7 17:04:33 1996 CDT From: Alluvia (#12737) To: *Chat (#5391) Subject: I look at it this way Of all the people that should be banished to Tarterus, it is Hawkeye. I mean geez... He has no ability to even play correctly, none the less with imagination. I mean I remember when I was with Yalon I believe and him and smoke came. Hawkeye decides he will throw a shark in the middle of the scene. It's at a beach and he throws in this corny bit about a shark attacking me.. so unreallistic it wasn't even funny. All he does is harrass people and cause trouble. He is the king of all twinks and I w as happy when kynwal chopped his ass up into little bite sized clusters. Kyn had reason, he had warrant, hell.. he had my approval. I say more power to Kyn and that Hawkeye should get stuck in nowhere$-1. -------------------------- Message 598 from *Chat (#5391): Date: Mon Oct 7 17:06:02 1996 CDT From: Smoke (#11265) To: *Chat (#5391) Subject: remember posting here is ooc Saying you dont like someone on a post...someone you know nothing about irl...could hurt that persons feelings... -------------------------- Message 599 from *Chat (#5391): Date: Mon Oct 7 17:07:10 1996 CDT From: Synge (#12541) To: *Chat (#5391) Subject: hmm... if I was to attack Stryfe, would I be criticized? if I was to get attacked by an OOC person, would I be a twink for complaining? I RP and all, and when I fight, I give good RP reasons for why I wanna. HAWKEYE has REVENGE for his motive.. wouldn't you be slightly Peed off if someone KOed you for attacking someone? well? -------------------------- Message 600 from *Chat (#5391): Date: Mon Oct 7 17:07:31 1996 CDT From: Red_Fang (#5907) To: *Chat (#5391) Subject: RE:699 I have no troubles with that, I really oocly don't like Hawkeye..
