I would like to apply for the Project team. I have a lot of experience with the toolset event though i cant script for anything. I would really like to be making new areas, editing and improving old ones, and trying to fill in some of the open space. I have a ton of ideas and even if im not a toolsetter would really like to get them out. Once i get the hak format for layonara(the order of them that is), ill start making a lot of stuff. I can make armor, weapons, NPC's, Merchants, and any items. I cant make these things useable however. Making a chair form nothing ...yes. Making people sit...no.
Thanks A Lot, Killizzal

what about oxen? Load your oxen up and go to the destination city. Or do you want a sure free way of getting your goods to the city. That is not very realistic for the world we play in. So it would be more for convenience.
Etin I did not mean this to move things from one place to another. I meant it to move characters form one place to the next. The whole point that makes it "realistic" as you would put it, is that you can still be attacked on the road. Now, if you can persay pay for a guard or take a guard with you and have encounters still, it is realistic.

If you're talking about realism, then also note that in real life, pickpocketing is illegal and is subject to legal action. How much fun would your rogue have being in prison, unable to pick anyone's pocket? If we're going to make it as real as possible, we can't just be selective about what parts of reality we include. Precisely, That is my point. Put in an active gaurd system with bounties, etc... There should be a court system on the server and all that. In my opinion, there should be major governmant, religious, and rebelious sway in the server to make it a proper persistant world. The world we play in right now, on the PvP side, is utopian. You cant even get mad IC and insult them. I think dueling IC with proper RP is nesessary and warranted, because maybe there is a problem that is not to be solved with words. As far as what Steverimmer said, the point in pickpocketing a monster that you can kill is what? ...Stupid waist of skill points and the result of to much gaming and not enough thinking. Why would a thief pick the pocket of a known mass murder? Uhh? He wouldnt. So, that is not even a valid point of pickpocketing being legal. Just kill em and take it. Now, if you can establish a good RP thief, now thats interesting world turning stuff. Personally, my thief was known by everybody as a scout and became one of the richest, most well known merchants on a previous server....and i chaotic neutraled him to the tee. My point is that it is something the would be around in a persistant world and player should be given the chance to do it if they can. Watch em, Make sure there doin it right.Like KageKiller said, if you get one that is off the wall, then make em change. If you can have someone change over the wrong alignment, that is easy. Now, my opinion on the law enforcement behing theivery. If caught, yes, a bounty should and would be put on your head by ANY and ALL law enforcement and if caught in the act, players should be able to use their own disgretion. Jail time or the possible "permanent jailing(character is null en void)" is a definate and a DM hosted trail would be GREAT! I personally love to RP things that really matter and are going to do something in a world where everyone gets along. Layonara is a place where everyone is merry with everyone. Dwarves love humans and elves. Elves love dwarves. Drow are tolerated, as are monsters in town(i.e. Klugger*huge giant thing). This is ot real people. I have tried to impliment this in the game and it dosent work. Nobody understands that they hate a giant in Sielwood but love them in town. Hate a drow in the Underdark and love them in the city. Clerics help monsters. Clerics help evil people. Druids help animal killers. There is not supposed to be perfect unity in this world. It should be hard to walk up, as a dwarf, to an elf and convince them to go to a dangerous place with you and possibly risk their life to help. Instead, I walk up and say, "'ey would any o' yous like to be goin wit me out of town en to da Sielwood?" and ive got ninety replys form people that should hate either bacuase of God, Alignment, Race, or Etc... I dont mind whether or not we have thives or not but i think some of the people on this great server could really improve on their RP skills. By the way: A SHOUT TO GAME DM'S: WATCH FOR RP MORE IN HLINT. IT HAPPENS A LOT. IVE BEEN RPING FOR TWO DAYS FOR XP AND IVE GOTTEN NONE. HOW DO YOU EXPECT TO DISCOURAGE POWERLEVELING IF YOUR NOT THERE TO GOVE THE XP. THE ONLY ONE IVE GOTTEN XP FORM FOR RPING IS LENTHAR AND THAT WAS FOR JUST SOME LITTLE CONVERSATION WITH SOMEONE I WASNT EVEN THINKING ABOUT. If one of you DM's wants to make that a seperate thread, go ahead cuz ill talk about that to. Sorry for any thing that may go against what you guys are saying but im ranting. Kiliizzal

Without a doubt, the rule im sure will not change. I dont say that it is good one way or the other. My primary point being that if it is RP and allowed by the 0's and 1's of the game then it should be allowed. In real life is there pickpocketing and house theft, murder and dueling? Yes, these are things that happen in our favorite books and movies about dungeon and dragons. I can see trying to keep everyone happy which is why my fuss does not keep me away from a non PvP server. But hte fina fact is that RP is roleplaying and is meant to be as real as possible and in as real a world as possible. Does anyone see what I mean? Another thing I'd like to address is the people out there who seem to think that these humans, elves, and dwarves can run forever. Ever heard of stamina? Another fine RP fact. Sleeping in the streets....Logging off out in the middle of nowhere...talking directly to someone you cannot see (in party chat)...Granted these things may not be, per say, "fun" to everyone, but to those RPer's out there who are in it to RP(a.k.a. me) this is a little irratating when you have a party run ahead of you and they or you die because of the lack of order or stability in a group.
Anyone reading this: Do not take this as a sign that I dont like this server. It is a wonderful place, I love the people(yeah, you all) and the Work put in bu the DM's is astounding.

I completely agree with remee on this part. My fist character I wanted was Sagriam Hill, a halfling thief and was highly disappointed tha i could not play him on this server. It is only real and rewarding to play a thief. You know, if you can get away with it than that is from the high abilities and training. Breaking into houses should be allowed in the case that you can do it without being seen (stealth) and pick the lock. If the DM's wantedt his prevented they can add a higher DC to things. As for thievry being griefing, i also think that is kinda dumb. Im not tryin to get anyone on my bad side and i love the server but if the RPers are so hardcore, they will realize that it is not the player griefing, but the PC doing what he is meant to do. Between the skill and RP of the character, it should be allowed. Now, on the other hand though: If you have a server full of Non_RPing idiots who cant follow the rules and decide to rob a bank with 50 people in it and "some how" get away with it...Thats moronic. Thives dont go to the bank at 12 noon. So, I think, if RPed correctly, that it should be allowed and yes remmy, your right, it would add greatly to the experiance of a persistant world.

The boating system is good in my opinion except for one thing. For the sake of RP, i beleive you should be told how long it will take to move from one place to another and you should actually spend time on the boat. Clicking 'i want to go here' and being there is VERY unrealistic. Boating trips should also have encounters. I dont mean everytime but, yes occasionally. Pirates are known to strike every once in a while. This would rreally help with reighning in new player and non RPers. New players that get killed goin to another continanent will only now know that they dont need to be goin there; and non RPers will not want to wait for a boat ride. Its boring. theres no fighting. Any RPer, in my case should be willing to admit that this helps the experience and is realistic.
P.S. Also all you HARDCORE RPers; stop running so much. your PC's are olympic track runners and dont have the stamina of a hummingbird.

Adding carriage systems that go to all big cities would make it easier and more realistic for crafting based PC's. In all reality, no crafter would normally have to fight off lizardmen and griffons to go to a main city to sell his wares. Also, having things like fairs and merchant markets in the cities every once and a while would really help. Or, the whole not being able to sell to merchants thing could be changed. How do they get their weapons anyway? Obviously not from the PC's. And also, the pawnshops inventory clears after everyplayer. Like all "pawnshops" he should continue to accumulate items until the server is reset. That way, if someone goes out and finds an ignot of iron, they sell it, and a crafter could buy it instead of deleting that items into electronic nothingness,

I would suggest putting in Boards to post on with in the beginning of towns. Since PC's cannot sell items to the merchants or to the pawn shops for anything but..., Boards would be influental in the selling of items by local crafters. By putting these in the beginning of the towns, players could walk in and see IC who they could contact for Ex: An Enchanted iron sword of acid.
