  • So I will start by saying that it is clear everyone involved in this is really close to the situation and emotions are supercharged, making it more difficult to stay even keeled. With that in mind I will try to be direct but not scathing.

  • (Quote) If a baby gets added, I want a dingo minipet. For reasons.
  • So back before we had systems that would bash for us, or a list of Areas to choose from, every org had a handy-dandy file called HELP BASHING or HELP HUNTING or HELP LEVELING that listed areas, how to attack, and what to bring with you. While I am n…
  • When you joined the Pools, was there something unexpected or an interaction that took you off guard?

    If you could trigger the Aetolian Apocalypse, in what form would it take and would you allow survivors?

    When doing work in th…
  • I will not comment as to which I think is a better system out of the various methods of voting, and there are a lot of them that could be used and coded into Aetolia.

    What I will comment upon, however, is that blanket statements regardin…
  • In my experience, IRE asks a lot of its volunteers compared to many organizations with volunteering as a primary source of labor. In the times I have volunteered for animal shelters and organizations, fundraising groups, and the like, 99% of volunte…
  • This event is racking up a body count faster than Les Misérables and just as political.

    I want more.
  • (Quote) Having held a position in my life where I have had to mediate between two parties, I feel the need to play Devil's Advocate to this commentary. @Tiur has the…
  • (Quote) The Archivists learn by doing! Blame the first major impact we had in the Bloom made by @Akaryuterra infecting himself to make the mutagen cure. …


  • So uh, forgot to buy regular fangs after you traded in your artifact ones, huh? I mean, the web spam looked annoying and did slow you down, but not being…
  • First off, thank you for taking the time to answer all the questions that you did! I can imagine it took a lot of time from the Pools to sort through and go over the multitude of questions put out there by the community (and seemingly more to come).…
  • (Quote) Her storm clouds sound a little under the weather.
  • I first learned I was bisexual when I used to watch Seventh Heaven after school and would have daydreams about Simon's eyebrows. I was confused for a bit because I would also go BOOBS when I would see some I liked, but ended up realizing I liked bot…
  • I'll chime in and say that that sounds more like either an inability to set barriers or the preference of the individual who is the one in which both you (the player) and the other person (the offender) want to roleplay with. I hesitate to hold the …
  • The cost associated, as I have seen it, is that your house/castle is yours when it is in a village or wilderness. In the city, you run the risk of losing it should you swap factions, or at least losing access to it. When you create a house in a city…
  • I think random curing order, while annoying, added in a lot more fun and a lot more thrill to PvP when I played in Achaea. Sometimes you would win against that person who is considered AMAZING GOD-TIER cause an aff ticked at just the right time or t…
  • In talking with people, I think the issue is less the automation, and more the creep on entry level for PvP. What was once the entrance barrier for skills, artifacts, and coding knowledge is now MUCH AND FAR BEYOND what it was "back in the day". No …
  • With cure orders being known and predictive, it is easy to code logic to have PvP be automated, especially with the power of Mudlet. I know Aetolia is not singular in its automation within IRE these days, but it definitely feels that it is the most …
  • I tend to longform roleplay if given the option. I enjoy writing immersive posts that can hit the character limit. But I also know who or when to save those for with the person I roleplay with. I understand the adaptation to the different people.
  • (Quote) The last bit of this reply is what has me the most concerned. No one should be placed in that position, especially with the decision to go into a subrace that gates roleplay, quests, and other interactions based on being vampire.
  • (Quote) I have absolutely nothing against you as a player and the share of the frustration was against the artifact, not necessarily you. As well, a name was left out to avoid finger pointing, name calling, and other such not-so-niceties that can …
  • Earth stomp boots. Someone didn't think their combat application through when making them with little CD. I get they are rare and super hard to come by due to their position in stockings, but being able to instantly split a group and instill an imme…
  • (Quote) If you did want to flesh out the revamp, consider taking a look at Knights in Achaea as the specs you have listed sound a lot like their specializations of dual-wielding, two-hander, and Sword and Board. The fourth they have is dual-blunt …
  • Seurimas is a little bit of an enigma. He is friendly and very dedicated to Spines, but I (read Sai) feels that there is more to him than he usually lets on. He plays the role of Syssin well in having multiple layers to him.

    As for the p…

  • Here we have a dumpster for trash (and everything else) and recycle bins with a 16-page printout on the outside of what, how, and exactly how much you can recycle.
  • (Quote) Not enough caps. And you're missing the jigs.
  • Leyline hunting already took a good chunk of time given having to go area to area. Now it is going to be downright painful.
  • So as upset as these changes have made me, I am going to take this in stages to explain how I feel and why.

    Elixir changes: I now have to update my entire system to handle this change. Thankfully I can do that. For the many that can't, th…
  • Akarn is a gentlemen driving around in a tank. He's proper, polite, and his decorum is impeccable, yet he has a terse, stern side that shows itself easily and quickly. I have enjoyed the roleplay interactions with him and the character is multi-dime…
