Re: Artifact ideas
Honestly, as far as abuse mitigation goes, I'd say that it could just be something that has really strict penalties for abuse. Take the Artie away (or temporary time outs from using it) if people violate the rules, and police it through issues like anything else. Kinda like how Tetchta isn't allowed to do marriage ceremonies anymore. Abuse it, lose it. Though I also think there should be some window for forgiveness for folks making mistakes. I mean emotes are similarly abusable but we very rarely see anything go wrong with them, and when they do, they get issued (correctly). Accounting for abuse is good, but I also think it might be a little bit of worrying over nothing in this case.
Also folk should at least be able to make them into sex toys in private, but turning them into nipple rings should be met with a permaban no matter where it's done.

Announce post #3217: Denizen Letter Service

Denizen Letter Service
Hi folks!
It is now possible to send letters to denizens by visiting the newly arrived messenger who has taken up residence at the gates of Esterport!
Sometimes a message doesn't quite cut it, or perhaps you want to send your favourite prisoner some contraband. Now you can!
To use this service, hand the messenger a letter, pay his fee (currently 500 gold), then SAY the name of the denizen you'd like to have it sent to.
No Albedi Gods, Chaos Lords, adventurers, or some other exceptions, but he'll try almost everything else*.
* No refunds for failed deliveries, no guarantees of receipt, reading, or reply!
Enjoy!
Penned by my hand on Falsday, the 14th of Lleian, in the year 497 MA.

Re: LOVE
For those of you who have waited around for me while I re-oriented my brain to life again you are a huge blessing. The last year during covid was rough for me and things IG impacted me harder than if I had been in my "right mindset." For those of you who who checked in on me just to see what I was up to: I see you. For those of you who continue to and those I talk to every day: I love you.
I am on a journey of discovery with my career path and the last two days during a leadership summit has made me really sit down and think about what I want for the future and I am extremely blessed and lucky to be able to take part in something that empowers women to stand up for themselves in the workplace after I was complacent for too long.
To those who continue to RP with me and who take that step to RP with the "other" tether: you are brave and I see you. Part of my switching was to foster a more healthy RP environment cross-tether and now that I am loving life, I am in a good space to do that.
This is way long.
But I do love the Aetolian community and I see the difference in the way you all have begun to interact and talk with each other and I think its amazing.

Re: Sciomancer Changelog
Are you being punished for playing Sciomancer, or has everyone that was fighting against Sciomancer -ceased- being punished?

Re: Sciomancer Changelog
I don't agree with the take that you are all being 'actively punished' for playing the class. Like any other fight in this game, the data available therein is free grounds for Keroc or others to make adjustments. He watches sect and other PK venues, to my understanding. What he did here was make an adjustment based on data provided to him by people's gameplay.
If you disagree with the changes, generate more data and try to make a well thought out point?

Re: Sciomancer Changelog
Best I've got is that it literally says it right in the changelog. Keroc will be watching to see how these changes pan out, and if you have any egregious logs to send them his way.
We've seen this attitude in the past for nearly every major class nerf due to overperformance. People quit Luminary despite it still being busted when shield skills were made dodgeable. People stopped playing Templar when dsk went from 2.09 to 2.19. People stopped playing Indorani when wheel was reworked, but it's still fine. People stopped playing Prae when they lost old indiff, but it's still fine.
Please just keep playing your class and provide more logs that demonstrate the issues with these changes, or discover that it isn't as bad as you thought it was.
Stopping playing the class accomplishes nothing.
Edit: quoting Alela:
"i'm just saying... it might've taken me (and/or you) a minute to figure out how to make it all workable again, but that doesn't mean it's actually wrecked"

Re: New show, the successor to the podcast
I dunno why I'm nitpicking over this so hard, but just to throw out there, Keroc was always part time. When he stepped away from combat he didn't step away from a full time job, he stepped away from combat. Tiur is the *only* full time paid staff member Aetolia has, Keroc and Razmael are both part time.
