Ankyrean Anguish - Aetolia-based RAGE

Rou

Sounds like we're calling people out here and.. name calling?

I've had posts edited for me for far less... (the Rage)

Edit: I retract my misinterpretation of the fluid guidelines and standards here. Bash away.

You take and tradein a luminous eyepatch, receiving 0 Bound Credits and 26 Bloody
Iron Coins in preparation for a later purchase.

I meant to tradein one of my language tokens.

Always, always, always, just do the normal syntax without the confirm first, that way you know exactly what you are trading.

Gwenith

couple of weeks ago I noticed I had concoctions on my skill list and asked around about it. General consensus was that all living get concoctions automatically and I thought "Sweet, put some lessons in there and MOSS!" I did not, however, realize that you can't have concoctions and forging. I am sad and misled.

Angwe

Huh? Since when?

Moirean

Since always.

Areka

Since forging became a mercantile skill and you have to pick one or the other.

Edit: To be more precise, since around September 26, 2011.

Gwenith

I put forth you should have to pick concoctions since I am a newb and didn't know. (Instead of it being already there.)

Areka

It probably would be best if you started off with no mercantile skill and the void to list a direction to HELP MERCANTILE

Nalor

GOD.. idiots in this game!

Simple market tell like - Nalor: "Looking for woodcrafter for vials. Send tells!" --

turns into
xxx: "Sending tells!"
xxx : "No, just sending tells like you said sir."

Like, seriously?

Haven

I don't know if this is a love or what but I get underestimated as a combatant a lot. o.o

Aishia

I'll underestimate the crap out of you @Haven.

Piper

Dude, the forums can't handle that kind of dirty talk.

Damonicus

@Gwenith Actually, you still have a chance to change it, as long as you have not actively picked a mercanitile skill, you still can switch to forging if so you desire. The system will automatically place you at concoctions/reanimation, but you can still switch to forging with I believe no lessons lost.

It wins you the first round.

Alee

So much anger... right as hit enter so I couldn't NOT confirm.

You are about to spent 15 bound credits to purchase a giftbag. Once purchased, the giftbag will automatically unwrap and any artifacts will be bound to you. To continue, do GIFTBAG PURCHASE CONFIRM.

[INFO]: The minor giftbag prize has just been won! The chance has now reset.
H:5452 M:5452 E:105% W:101% B:100% Mad:0% Ess:69% XP:32% [csdb eb]giftbag purchase confirm
You spend 15 bound credits and obtain an unwrapped giftbag.
You tear apart the wrapping of your giftbag, eagerly looking forward to its contents.

Xavin

@Alee that sucks But I know that some of the commands that direct you to a 'confirm' command you can skip straight to the confirm command. Maybe that would work in the future? Or stacking the commands? :-/

Daskalos

You can just put in the confirm command without the first prompt on just about anything.

Mariena

I figured out the terribad work lag I was getting! If I uncheck the mapping window, suddenly everything speeds up and the web client doesn't make me type through molasses. Why is this in Anguish? I /like/ that map

Moirean

Not really a rage but more of a bafflement - being CL seems to mean that people think I know all the secrets of Aetolia. Or else Aet's help scrolls are REALLY bad (they aren't). I get multiple tells, like, every hour asking about basic stuff, and 80% of the time I tell people the help scroll to read and they go OH! THANKS! Half the time, I just check the help scrolls myself for the answer, so it baffles me a bit that I'm serving as this middleman. I don't really mind, so please nobody feel bad about asking stuff, it just kinda surprises me how many questions I get asked about Aetolia itself (versus city-specific stuff). Definitely an unwritten part of the job description. :P

Setne

Y-y-you don't? My world is shattered. /cry

Moirean

Ironbeard isn't real, either.

Sheirosia

You... Just broke my heart.

Do what I do..... point them to the help file. If they don't like it, fuck em. lol

Aishia

Ya I tend to get a bit annoyed when people pester me questions whose answers are in abs or self evident help files.

Amberlea

It depends. I really like helping people out, so am pretty patient. Some help files can be really long winded, and in the course of reading a massive dissertation about ylem/proper behavior/what to do when and where some things get missed. Being friendly to people who don't know what they're doing helps the game grow, and it's important to remember that we were all mewling newbs once, too.

Now, if I get the feeling that they aren't really trying at all my answers may start to take longer and longer to compose :P

Irruel

I find getting information about ylem is a nightmare. Or maybe that's just Duiran's chelps on the topic.

Moirean

This month, in particular, saw a spike in the questions. I, literally, got at least 25+ tells asking how to use style scrolls and voxes.
