Just wanted to say miss you all.

Spent many years in this server and RL is a bit*& that demands a lot, but I still remember my memorable days that was a gift of all your wonderful and awesome rp.

Wish you best in everything you are doing my friends :)

@lady-of-dungeons
Please don't make it personal as I had stated I had attended the so called event.

The only question then I ask and I know it's not an easy thing to answer is

Managing crowd by Restricting player base to certain player types like example nobles and retainers or anyone who has climbed the political ladder of Arabel ?

My PC was at the last trail so this is not a personal thing and I acknowledge the thankless and stress DM's go through and also anyone want to pull of a random thing in a DM event require them to send a message in private message, based on which they will take a call, atleast this is what I have followed.

Anyway, The crux of the matter remains that an interesting story is unfolding and a great rp is at play, do you want to restrict the audience ? I am sorry, but I still do not see a valid point here.

There are many things that in real world would be handled differently. An evil char is given opportunity to escape and continue his story cause of the conflict he brings. So there is no point in trying to mirror a real life scenario and anything that excludes players is not a good thing

As a player, I would like to raise a concern of closed door trials which is open to only selected players who basically are nobles or their retainers or someone who have made name or is of some importance to the setting. I personally feel this is not in the spirit of game even if its exercised by certain perks that PC can exercise. I have in my past PC tried to deal with this IC and made sure any trial is open to public and it sure makes all players in the server related to the happenings.

I understand the server is not a democratic setup but if you want to make the court proceedings interesting where even accusation can throw light on the accused and can open opportunities for those lesser and “do not care souls” of server, even open up opportunities for Thug to enter and disrupt the proceedings, attack the judge, etc.

I have seen in the last event, few PC’s were not allowed and OOC it was sad that they were waiting outside the court house. There is no levels to balance here nor is the audience stealing the show of the accused and accuser.

I have personally found this most entertaining form of RP where you can see top class roleplaying cause you are not hacking or slashing things. Please reconsider this.

Will be unavailable in game or to respond to forum. Will be back on Saturday this week to pursue the trial, Cheers folks

thanks

Hi,
Will be out for 1 week with no access to game. Meet you guys soon

@Zool thanks for the reply.

The way I was envisaging this to work was you getting an order using forum from a pc. The crafter makes the item and the gives it to an NPC with a password and amount may be by using a dot command. The buyer will approach the NPC and use the password and agreed gold to retrieve the stored item. The benefit is Crafters playing in opposite timezone can still benefit with buyers and demand for their craft obviously with a nominal holding fee to the NPC

Due to my timezone, most of the time, I login with zero players in server. I have taken recourse in crafting as something to do when no one is around to kill time and hang around in server till someone joins. solo exploring is not a viable solution with certain build. Even that has hit a limit where progression cannot be made without specific items that can be procured from exploring or hunting powerful spawns. This is mainly for smithing

Can the crafting be looked at where you dont need ingredients which can only be procured by team effort and rather people can farm around.

The reason is that

• It gives a reason to hang around even if there is no one in the server

• Quest and DM loot will always overshadow crafting items.

Also for people playing around different time zones, can we look at a shared storage space where people can exchange goods even when the other person is offline..only for crafted items.

The only reason I bring this up is to ensure if crafting can be leveraged to make people stay online even when the numbers are 0, 1 or 2 with varying alignment

Name: Mystra's Pride

Decription: Mystra was said to be a manifestation of the Cosmic Balance—maintaining order in the world of magic by correcting great inequalities if things went askew. Priest of Mystra would lay the curse upon those who who seek to disrupt such balance on moral grounds and affirm the power of Mystra to mortal who take it for granted. The cursed mortal cannot recieve the gift of weave in spells or potions and any attempt to cast or invoke magic is rebuked.
