(Quote) It's really not cynical at all, you've essentially summarized the player acrimony pretty well. Frankly, Callidora said it herself.Iosyne says, "Again, it's not being taken away. It's still with the Dominion. It's b…Hate to double post but just realized that the Envoy system more or less means that guilds as a whole are stuck with this system, and you have to either quit guilds or be cityless (RIP my Arties that use ylem reserves) to avoid this system if there'…(Quote) Ngl didn't expect you to say anything like that and I really appreciate it. It really did make me angry. I don't argue just to be obstinate, I will just argue when I think I'm right and there's a perspective not heard yet, and that comment …(Quote) Man I know this comes across as reductive but this also seems like the only answer we get. I want someone to explain to me like I'm five why we should be the only city with a political system that's not only unfair IC, but unfair in the met…(Quote) Can you defend an unfair system, please? Why do we need one? Every other city in the game has a system built to make the cities, both in the metagame and IC, as equitable as possible. Why is bloodloch and vampires the one exception to this?…(Quote) That's what I keep trying to point out, man, but I'm looked at like I'm a crazy person. "If an Overlord won by that margin they'd still be overlord" but just...LOOK at the numbers, man, LOOK! It's literally 51% to 49%. If you look at this a…(Quote) The teradrim is not super active and we have an Overlord seat with a Teradrim on it. I mean the same thing could be said of the piecemeal system, anyway. The entire Dominion could check out (not likely, but still technically possible), and …I'd honestly rather have a full speaker system than this piecemeal system that keeps getting loosely justified by Bloodlochian power dynamics that are no longer relevant.Duiran's system seems a lot more fair to me. 🤷♂️(Quote) See, I really started this whole thing out optimistically, thinking we could roleplay new directions here, but it really feels like we're being railroaded because of decades-old Lore that is no longer relevant, and is not looking to be rele…(Quote) I dont' think that's a comparable argument at all, honestly. I don't think I claimed that all lore should be disregarded--but a position like an Overlord seat being mechanically sealed by the game is, frankly, the opposite of Roleplay. The …EDITED BY TETCHTA: Maybe this was too spicy so I'm deleting it, but this entire system is really messed up.Here's a log of what the meeting entailed before I got too angry to stay logged in because I couldn't stay not-angry with people literally mocking me in front of my face and in front of admin while OOC: in Bloodloch's government system is unfair and doesn't make sense Comment by Tetchta November 2020Rhyot has declared you an enemy of the City of Bloodloch.
Mjoll has declared you to no longer be an enemy of the City of Bloodloch.
Rhyot has declared you an enemy of the City of Bloodloch.
Mjoll h…yo isn't this topic meant for OOC gripes like "my neighbor dumped their toenail clippings in my back yard again" type stuff?Yeah I'd say that HELP LANGUAGE RULES is probably one of the most-consistently enforced rules of the game, honestly, and it's really clear. Don't subject profanity over a certain severity to people you aren't 100% certain want to hear it. In gnitty-…While likely more irritating to the admin and to the people getting the issues, I'm a little annoyed at the use of spurious issuing in order to meta in-character/in-world outcomes. Honestly kinda done with obnoxious and overbearing metagaming stuff …(Quote) I don't think I've ever seen an f-bomb dropped in a massively public context that wasn't met with reprisal almost immediately.
Edit: Actually in recent memory I can think of ONE, and only ONE instance of someone dropping the F-B…This is kind of a serious one, and it's something I've struggled with since coming back, but it's something I think about a lot: what is the best way for people who pay for a product to criticize the product without crapping on the unpaid labor that…Is there a tiny Eld minipet? 'cause if not there should be tiny eld minipets.(Quote) Stop trying to block out my poetry jams, Mjoll. The world MUST HEAR IT.People get punished for HELP LANGUAGE RULES violations constantly. Don't drop f-bombs yo(Quote) You don't really learn class nuances, yeah, but bashing IS a skill, and bashing in each class is a little different. Hell, a ton of people who played Prae didn't know about low-blood bashing until, like, a few weeks ago. I do think that the…(Quote) This can be our hard counter to Eld Figurine Spam.I would like a miniature @Mjoll minipet thank you.I'm not super surprised to hear that, honestly, which is why I offered novel voting systems even though it was arguably off topic. I think it actually addresses things a lot better than fudging with vote weights.Eliminating vote weight doesn't immediately open up voting to abuse any more than having them weighted does. It's not uncommon to still see inactive people start logging in for elections. It doesn't take that long to accrue the time necessary…
