  • So. As someone who disdains a lot of orgs in general, but having been members of quite a few and in leadership in quite a few, and also having been rogue for a lot of my playing career, there are aspects of the initial post that I agree with, but a …
  • This is kind of a major pet peeve, but it's something I've noticed some people do. I don't know why, but I dislike it when people monopolize a person's time and do it repeatedly. This usually takes the form of hovering around whenever the other pers…
  • (Quote) It kind of goes along with my point of being emoted at as opposed to with. If you're just posting huge emotes for the sake of it without taking into account the flow or content, you're kind of just doing your own thing and not really …
  • Super, SUPER agree with @Sibatti . I view emoting as a back and forth exchange, and you (ideally) try to match whoever you're emoting with. You don't want to cram t…
  • On the opposite end of things... 

    There are people who will hold you 'RP hostage' for hours. They're talented RPers, but it's extremely difficult to find an out with RP with them because you either a) have somewhere else to be or b) would…

    Standing around very rarely gets you RP. I do it in my shops, which sometimes helps, but most people just aim to get in, buy what they want, and get out.

    The most consistent way I've gotten RP has been that last point…
  • (Quote) Not appendicitis. He had his appendix removed years ago. 

    To add to my rage: the doctors gave no prescription for any pain meds. I don't know how they can say nothing is wrong when he's practically in tears from the amount …
  • Here's a legitimate OOC rage. 

    I spent a good portion of my day yesterday wrapping presents and baking a cake for my husband's birthday. Cut to today. 

    Husband starts feeling some intense abdominal pain after trying to go out a…


  • No antennae option, but this is closest...kind of want to download this no…
  • The thing about Esterport's Apothecary/Herbalism prep rooms is that using them costs gold. Every city has one, but there's no cost to use. You just kind of need to ask around. I know where Enorian's and Duiran's Herbalism and Apothecary rooms are, b…
  • (Quote) You can actually cook in things like fireplaces and firepits made via furniture. You're a bit SOL if you specify the heatsource in your cooking design as that becomes the ONLY source you can use.

    That being said...

    I…
  • OH! I think the sunstone thing is a replacement for the greenhouse since all greenhouses got converted to the cellars back during the Farming changes. I forgot I missed that.
  • There's a sunstone event? Don't think I've ever gotten that one. That's probably why it's not in there - never seen it/heard of it from anyone. 
  • We have green bins up here for food garbage. Take a paper towel, wipe down your pan, toss the paper towel in the green bin. 
  • Crafting list has been updated. Big thanks to the people who added all the gems from Spinesreach, Bloodloch, and Duiran. I just went in and alphabetized stuff. Item properties will be added later.

    Also added some of the special gems.
  • Giving this another nudge since I've been RPing at some more people lately, and a fair bit has changed. 
  • I know I've mentioned it to you a few times, but I definitely remembered Sryaen from years ago, but we had never interacted at all, and I had always felt like I had missed out on being able to RP with an interesting character. I'm so glad I've gotte…
  • Finally got around to doing summer stickers. Have a Beach Sryaen! Poor guy does not like the heat.


  • There actually is a way to get access (two, actually). The Covenant clan, which I don't know if you can still get an invite to, and a wormhole, which I created for easy access and also because I'm super lazy and frequent the island for dragon parts …

    Haaaa. You think it's bad with 5? Try managing 10+. >_>

    The artifact hoe only takes 0.5s of balance, which I use instead of doing 3 tiles at once with directional input. Just easier that way. I never bothered wi…
  • The real use people have for globes is easy exp. After you activate the globe to get the Elemental defense, you can SUMMON ELEMENTAL, and it'll summon an elemental you can kill for a ton of exp. You can keep doing that until the globe is depleted. T…
  • (Quote) This has been frustrating me too for an entirely different reason: RP and org advancement. I want to RP at somebody and send a tell, no response for hours, if they respond at all. Need to find someone to give you an interview for advanceme…
  • I posted a few Phoe themes back on page 2, which I still do associate with her, but recently I've come across a few more.

    These ones are kind of along the lines of 'A Day in the Life of' montage. Music that I kind of imagine going on in t…
  • Some new art things today from an old commission batch

  • When you arrive at a skill release event and people immediately start buying stuff from the shop without knowing what they are or what they do, and then you see this. 

    STOP BUYING STUFF AND LET US TELL OUR STORY.

  • Bumping this, and also noting a few updates.

    * Updated the fishing tab. Libec Cay and fishing holes in the Newbie areas have been added (yes, there's fishing holes in some newbie areas).
    * The Wood tab is now complete.
    * I have …
  • Been a while, so figure I might give this a bump. If you've interacted with Phoe recently, let me know what you think! 
  • Drystin is a Drizzt clone... Not gonna lie, that's what I had in mind while drawing him. Just much nicer. >_>
  • I feel really dumb, but the AP INFO for the seedbox doesn't really say anything about it, and trying to buy seeds from Ives without sacks doesn't work, but how do you actually buy and store seeds for the seedbox?

    EDIT: Nevermind. The comm…
  • I meant to do this much sooner, but a big thank you to the person behind @Slyphe. Despite my initial worries, you've made every tiny interaction encouraging and wort…
