It's not, because it's generally true across IRE but exceptionally true in Aetolia and that is me being as objective as I can regarding this whole affair. My participation in this event was bashing and tapping maybe two people with the cur…
While my opinions of the Speaker system are mixed, I will say that Duiran had the system enforced because of drama, cliques, honor line trading, repeated contestations, and general nastiness between groups of players in Duiran. It was bad and it nec…
I stared at this thread long enough to try to think of topics or questions that I'd want to ask, but many of them have been covered in much better means by folks like @…
Gonna be honest with some of the comments I've seen: a good system does not mean you're a good PK'er. I've seen people go full auto with scripts and stay past points in fights where they clearly should've ran and reset the fight, or mistakenly push …

It wouldn't really reduce automation either. Achaea does this and still has people who have offenses that do smart predictions on what you still have, so there's just a wider disparity between those who have these kinds of systems and thos…
I'm also of the opinion that the game needs more entrenchment breakers/group splitters. It's too easy for groups to entrench themselves right now with certain classes and most combatants just relying entirely on auto-targeting scripts for success in…
A small little log, but a fun one all the same. Thank you for the dargon heart, Tani. I will be sure to show all the kids at school that Dragonmom gave me a whole heart so I wouldn't go hungry.

I feel like Achaea Knights is one of those rare examples, if not being the only one I've ever seen, where a "jack of all trades"-esque class is actually good. I've always believed that Templar's wide-ranging offensive capabilities in terms…
My take on Templar is that it rarely exists in a happy medium. It's either horrible or tremendously broken. I don't know where it currently exists, but I will note that I don't struggle with Templar due to having easy access to afflictions that slow…

Thank you for extrapolating and explaining. I figured that is what you meant, but I wanted to double check. However, as for the rest of your post:
I would say your changes have had the opposite effect if your goal has been the l…
I debated at first on whether or not to respond to you, but I wanted to extrapolate my reasoning in order to avoid further misconceptions and begin by saying that my post wasn't targeted at you or anyone in specific. Let me give…

Because the playerbase needs to be expressly told, otherwise they'll take a mile when provided the inch. It's best, in my honest opinion, to be clear on what is considered inflammatory when there is a zero tolerance policy. Though to dispe…
While I think it's clear that there was unjustified vitriol towards Keroc and I think most have a good idea of what inflammatory is, you may want to express identify what constitutes inflammatory by the administration at large. That being said, I ha…
With Keroc's departure as the Head of Combat, this likely means that combat changes are going to be slowed down as a result. Given that these were experimental changes, can we revert them so we're not languishing in a state of being in the midst of …
Keroc: I wish you well, and I apologize for the undue stress that your position has likely wrought over the years. I wager that my comments as of late did not help and I hope that you continue to find enjoyment up in the Pools.
I think it goes without saying, but one of my biggest reservations with buying into the promotion are the previous changes that were made. Value was impacted. I get that there are priorities as dictated from above, but the changes are gonna interfer…

There are always going to be people who have more experience or better feedback to offer either because they're really good at accurate napkin math/hypotheticals and/or a good combatant with a mindset that tries to remain as impartial as t…

Gonna try to tackle each point. I want this to be viewed as constructive criticism, and I note that while you take time to parse things -- so do I. However, forgive me if I believe that my frustration, as well as the frustration on the pla…

I'd be happy with an admin response in general. The silence is quite annoying when the playerbase has made their disdain for the changes clear.
