This is a tough topic to discuss for many reasons. Aetolia has changed a lot over the years for many reasons. Our playerbase has gotten older, true newbs are not common, risk vs reward has changed, game side and player systems have become commonpl…
I'm using the term clan loosely as a flavor for the word pack. I don't mean going back to clan houses. Vampire packs have the luxury of being fluid, small, and manageable; this in turn should get more people whom hold class but dont participate in…
Been undead for a while so I never see it anymore, but a lot of players use that time to use the bathroom, get a snack, or stand up for a second. I don't think I've payed attention to the lines for over 5 years now.
I think I'd rather see vampire clans like in VTM that behave mechanically like shapeshifter packs. Then make the 'alpha' of those groups report to Abhorash wether they want to or not. You don't have to listen or follow what he says, but he'll trea…
I don't post many rp logs (I certainly haven't put one out for a long time), but it is a decent way to let players and divine know that you're interested in RP and what sort of direction your character has taken. Maybe it's meta, but at least I kno…
I'm already heavily considering retiring my character. If it was a no refund delete, I'd probably full retire from IRE. I'm all for deletion, but not removal of my $$$ investment in the game.
I have RP'd with planned and open endings. It can be as open as X will happen but how you get to X and what results because of X is open; to closed curtain that's a wrap folks. Depends on what I was doing. A lot of guild team building RP is like …
I don't have a Facebook, but I do enjoy telling stupid stories, posting memes, and blasting the channel with hip-hop on occasion. Not really upkeep, more of a social break while I'm being anti-social
Toxicity exists at the participation of the user either passively or actively. Actively participating in "office gossip" about other players, passive is seeing it take place and doing nothing about it. If you want to see these sorts of things stop…
I wish I could downplay the absurd amount of time I've RP'd by myself - and a few dozen of those instances became a social RP or became very significant such as Jensen being an order rep.
He's that player who rolled this alt at 12 and, now that he's older and realizes the lore significance, hides his background from public. Deny Deny Deny
I'm not going to deny ignorance on the subject, but if Spines is going to try and achieve a three part harmony with their guilds won't that clash a bit with the old cabal ideal of shunning magic?
This is a weird love, and it's taken a bit for me to appreciate it for what it is. On the first business day of 2017 I got let go from my job of five years, it's the first real time I've ever left a place involuntarily and it was a bit hard. I kne…
We (Bloodloch) put a complete halt on commodity sales until eventually Cariv said fuck it and we switched to selling them in the shop. I think I had heard of 1 person in game asking me to sell X amount of wood prior to that. I'd release more than …

No guards and not in the mood to deal with raiders? Don't engage. Not engaging attackers means they don't have cause to kill anyone. All they can do then is be annoying and maybe exterminate rooms. Both of which are healed with t…
Every time I've ever been MoS I've discharged most if not all guards. In my opinion they are too costly to replace and maintain for what they do. We don't have a war system so protecting your militia isn't important. Hunting artifacts are lost on…
I'm no longer really interested in pushing the revamp the guards idea, but the game always seems to teeter totter between guards are easy to wipe out vs immortal hellspawn.
A trainer that gets exponentially more expensive based on your level but you can pay him/her for X xp points and a temp xp gain buff (any bonus xp gain doesn't affect the trainer)
To add to Toz and Xenia, I was in the auxiliary unit and it worked for me. It would have been more successful if I had more energy for Aet in general, but it was definitely a viable path for characters like Jensen.
