Re: Mildly Irritating: Aetolia's Pet Peeves
At some point in the recent past there was a change put in so that you can't CONCEAL items that can't be removed; things like Daths, tattoos, etc. I'm not sure what exploit this was washing over, but it made it really irritating as someone who has a character with a lot of tattoo items to not be able to coceal them when they'd ordinarily be concealed, so that things like my thigh and hand tattoos are always visible no matter if I'm wearing pants or gloves. Not only has it made my worn-items list kind of a cluster, but it's also breaks my immersion a bit (doubly annoying because I have a series of aliases for re-attiring my tattoos based on visibility). I hate seeing it so much rofl. ex:
H:6739 M:4971 E:98% W:99% B:100% Bl: 0 [cb e-]default tattoos
attire 128459 poking out over unbuttoned shirt
attire 130601 conceal
attire 218457 conceal
attire 350953 conceal
attire 380595 inked on the left side of the neck
attire 361905 conceal
attire 157103 conceal
attire 347366 conceal
You adjust a three-headed hydra tattoo slightly until it seems more suitable.
H:6739 M:4971 E:98% W:99% B:100% Bl: 0 [cb e-]
You can't conceal that item.

Thank you for doing what you could to make the players happy. You catch a lot of complaints @Tiur, but I rarely see gratitude.

More treaty terms!
Hey guys,
I've added three new treaty terms you can now propose with certain effects.
IMMUNITY <person> : You will offer diplomatic immunity to the
person in question. It will not be possible
to enemy them to your organization until
the treaty is broken.
OPEN TRADE : (City only) You can offer open trade to
another organization, granting their
members to the ability to purchase
commodities at citizen prices.
OPEN PRODUCTION : (City only) You can offer open production
to an organization, granting its members
the ability to process raw resources into
commodities at citizen prices.
You can read over HELP TREATIES for the full list. More to potentially come!
Enjoy!

I've been pretty afk for a while, spent the last year working on grad school applications. Ended up paying off!

Re: GOOD THINGS IN LIFE
I dunno how out of character this is, but I had a lot of fun with it and it was a 'Good thing in life to me'.
So, like, I've had this couple as best friends in my real life, for man, maybe like 8-9 years now. We met at a local gaming store, through Magic the Gathering, and we have been roommates on two separate occasions. I was at their wedding, we were playing D&D when they were pregnant with their twins, etc, etc. Anyways, I've told them over the years about 'that game I play' in Aetolia from time to time, and they're skeptical as everyone else is that you tell about MUDs.
Anyways, randomly for the first time in his life, my friend decided to connect to Aetolia earlier tonight, while I was on voice chat with him, and made a character. He's never played a MUD in his life, and was playing on Nexus, and I was super distracted for 3 hours straight teaching him how to play the game. We eventually got into a funny little RP at Temple of the Gods with Haley, and then Kalena after. He learned how to use says, how to emote, and how to use say to, already. He made a Troll, and of course, decided he wanted Aeryx to 'take him to the closest bridge' and that's where he logged out for the night. Oh man. I hope he sticks with it, but even if he doesn't, he at least had the one time and it was funny and memorable.
