  • So. I'm here to kick the dead horse of Enorian's blanket enemying policy again and how annoying it is. I've been on a few alts lately, and I get enemied simply for being in a Spirean guild when I haven't even done anything. When I asked for an expla…
  • Going to chime in here and say that's largely why I don't enjoy interacting with most characters from Enorian, or go out of my way to avoid it. Most characters that subscribe to zealotry frequently come off as ridiculously one-note because it's eith…
  • I know this has been brought up a bunch before, but sometimes I really wish there was a middle-road, good-aligned city because when it comes to options for a good-aligned character, there's the hardcore zealotry for the Light city and then a nature-…
  • I'm totally into cooking and baking, but my specialty tends to be with desserts. There are some recipes I absolutely refuse to share because I've found them to be infinitely better than desserts I've bought from stores (like my carrot cake and New Y…
  • Just got back from my first day at Fan Expo in Toronto. Hoooly crap, I regret not attending in previous years. Even though I spent my whole day just browsing all of the booths, there was still a lot to see. Intel Extreme Masters Starcraft 2 tourname…

  • (Quote) Yes, totally doable. I don't know if it'd work for room descs too, but I think it might. All you have to do is write the different state/season descs, and specify which season you want each of them to become active in, etc. Spinesreach als…
  • Pissed off for a large number of reasons today.

    I love that the store I work at closes at 6pm everyday, and 4pm on Saturdays. What I don't love is that for some reason, people love to drop in about 10 minutes before we close, and take th…
  • Hnng. Don't get me started on all the amazing things that can be made with fruit. I'm a sucker for fruit tarts and pies, and especially strawberry shortcake.

  • (Quote) Yeah. I've been searching for really good strawberries all summer, and most of the farmer's markets I've scoured either didn't have any, or didn't have any super-fragrant ones. I don't think the ice storm we had at the beginning of this ye…

  • I have no idea how it happened, but my shoulder is completely stiff, and it's painful to move. I haven't gone to the gym or lifted any weights in the past couple of days, so I know I didn't injure it there. It kind of annoys me at how completely ran…
  • I <3 my siblings. I had work today, but my brother and sister went out and stopped by a farmer's market to bring …

  • On the topic of Enorian continually being stuck between a rock and a hard place, I think the reason for that is because of the expectation that because they're a Light org, they're automatically the good guys, and that everything in the game is blac…
  • When it comes to getting neat stuff for your org, you really have to put in the effort, and really have to follow up.

    When I was a Dhasan in Spinesreach, I noticed that a bunch of places were still bombed-out and ruined, so I got to aski…
  • I'm not a huge fan of tethers, and it's felt like a really artificial way of promoting conflict, dividing the sides, and especially defining characters. Honestly? It's really not that hard to find reasons for why a person holding a spirit-cl…
  • I remember a while back there being a ruling about how you CAN'T require a time limit on progression - you can't force time limits or, on the flip side, force them to progress if they just want to sit at GR1. Which I've seen some guilds do. If you'r…
  • Just to kind of echo what @Toz mentioned, my main beef with the way the cities are set up is that the range of options are actually kind of limited.

    On the …
  • Didn't know where else to put this, but I recently got Animal Crossing: New Leaf for my birthday recently. I kinda want to start visiting other towns, so if anyone else owns the game and actively plays or wants to start playing again, I wouldn't min…
  • Just to add to the annoyance, I logged in tonight to check my shop stock, and I locked my shop door so I wouldn't be bothered while I checked it/wandered off to grab food. I STILL got harassed by some inconsiderate asshole who decided to prism in an…
  • Funnily enough, the attitude of 'if you want the class so bad, just join the guild' doesn't really fly. I've seen the guild requirements for GR3 in the Syssin for regular novices, and the requirements are kind of a lot to ask for someone that's new …
  • Been sick for the past week, and I've been fatigued a lot to the point of nearly passing out if I move around too much. It's also been getting harder and harder to breathe with the heat and humidity from all the rain we've been getting lately. I won…
  • I'm more than a little annoyed that I may be forced to find another job soon. I actually like my job, and it's convenient and easy for me to get to. But, the regional manager wants to move the store to a new location by the end of August. The prospe…
  • In addition to elemental options, I was kind of hoping to see some insectoid stuff like insect antennae (antennae twitch emote, scent ability) or chitinous plates (minor defense boost). Also, horns were mentioned in the announce post, but sadly, no …
  • Y'know, I'd happily take you up on the offer if it were possible for me to keep all of my Light side classes active. :/
  • Kind of wishing there were more interesting orgs to join that weren't dark-side aligned. Being full-rogue kind of sucks and gets boring after a while.
  • For the past week, after everyone's home from work, me and my siblings have been playing a new maid-themed, deck-building card game called Tanto Cuore everyday. It's been fun and hilarious, and we've been making a lot of dirty jokes about it.

  • It's not funny when you're getting thrown around that much! :< (but yes, it's still funny)
  • It's still going, yeah. Just been sidetracked by trying to replace my tablet cord, but I managed to find one, so I should be getting back on track soon.
  • I injured my knee yesterday after doing some weights at the gym the night before. Today? Completely blew out my knee, and I'm in a lot of pain. Can barely walk without my knee bandaged up and painkillers. The pain got so bad that my boss pretty much…
  • (Quote) Not really. Whenever Phoe had kids, I recorded the exact dates when they were born. Do you have any idea how hard it is to find players for child characters? It's hard. Several months down the line, someone contacts me saying they're inter…
  • In regards to the age artifact, the most useful thing it'd be for is for altering the ages of player kids where you end up finding a player much later down the line. That's what I'm using it for. Now I don't have to fudge the ages of Phoe's kids any…
