Ask A Gamemaster / Active GM's
« on: November 24, 2009, 08:52:24 pm »
Is the GM's that are posted as a sticky all still active GMs? Are there any that has not posted?

I would be great if the GM's would post on theirs if the are active and in what.. like miltonyorkcastle and EdTheKet did.

It would help players decide which GM to go to when they begin to look for help from a GM.

General Discussion / Pm's, Quest, CDQ's and more!

//new thread to not take over the other one.

Quote from: Lynn1020
I will comment on this...




Honestly I didn't know how important it was to pm gm's with things your character wanted to do until just recently. With the way it is now.. a character can have a huge part of the world without even having to log into the game for anything other than quest. I hate bugging GM with pm's. I know they are busy with their RL jobs and families on top of planning quest answering forums etc. But from the way it looks that is the only you can grow your character other than quest and grinding xp.

If GM's don't mind taking the time answering all the pm's they get from a server of people then I guess there is nothing wrong with that other than it leaves everyone else out on what is happening in the world. You go to try to do something only find out that such and such has already did that. Leaves others frustrated.

One thing that does help, is the public threads that people post to IC. That allows others to be pulled in and get involved.

Quote from: miltonyorkcastle
And now you understand one of the big reasons why you see WL's and high level characters less and less IG, or only on quests. World-changing projects take massive amounts of OOC and IC planning, which ultimately boils down to spending lots of time in conversation (either via PM or IRC) with GMs before you can even do anything IG.

Quote from: Lynn1020
So why even log in to play the game? That just says you can't do anything other than search for xp or craft.

To me this leaves a lot of people out.  I think public forms works much better to pull others in.

Quote from: miltonyorkcastle
Because after all the big planning (which often includes forum posts, since you mentioned bringing others into the picture), then you hop IG to actually make the deed happen.

Quote from: Carillon
Heh ... you know when the GM says at the end of the quest, "And remember, my PM box is always open" or something? We do really mean it. Or at least I do. I received around a hundred PMs last week alone, and sent just as many.

Forum RP is great, and serves its purpose. As do IG events and quests. But PMed inquiries also have their place. To me, PMs are to forum RP as CDQs are to quests in at least one way: they allow for a greater range of efforts and pursuits than one might otherwise be able to pursue. There is a time and place for things to be public and shared, but we also make opportunities for a wide variety of playstyles and for people to be involved in as many ways as possible, and for players and characters to take initiative in more private, solitary, unique or individual ways too. Or at least I do. My two cents for the morning.

Quote from: jrizz
Just in case this does not go to a separate thread (like it should), I just wanted to add. That when I was a GM I would run 80% of a CDQ by PM with IG sessions only to finalize or deal with key events.

Rumour Has It / Gathering in the Forest of Fog
« on: October 31, 2009, 01:29:30 pm »
[SIZE=16]*Amanda heads into the Forest of Fog looking for various things needed for her scribing.  As she bends down to pick a few peppermint leaves she spots the glow from a campfire near by.  Staying surrounded by her illusion and keeping her sight up, she tip toes closer to see who is at the camp.   Once she sees it is a young boy, she waves away the illusion and approaches the boy slowly with a soft smile.  Being careful not to frighten the child she sits across the fire from him and begins to talk with him.  She tries to find out who the child is and why he is in the forest alone. *[/SIZE]



//Most likely this is a set up left over from a quest. But Amanda couldn't just walk past the little boy alone in the forest for the spiders to have for snack. ;)

Brac'ar Fireface has kind enough agreed to come and

 that having the chance to listen and watch the man that created it

Ask A Gamemaster / Question about quest..
« on: September 21, 2009, 05:41:02 pm »
Okay.. I have been meaning to ask this for sometimes.  I often do not do quest because I am not sure on how do let the gm know things I want my character to do.  

By that I mean, I will emote something and do a role or if the gm has requested I will wait to be told to roll.  So my question is.... if you emote something or ask a gm a question but you get no response... do you just take that as a no to whatever you did or continue to ask until you get a response?  I really hate bugging GM's on quest, even more so when there is a large party or demanding character/player on it.  So with that I often find it hard to get my characters involved on quest and feel like I'm just along for the ride.

Any ideas or tips from the GM's would be appreciated.

Ask A Gamemaster / RP or quality of RP?
« on: August 04, 2009, 12:22:36 pm »
A conversation with another player got me curious about this.  They said that they can sit and rp for hours and never get bonus RP XP from GM's.  
 

 So that brings me to this...
 

 This is an RP server so we should encourage those that RP right?  I know it may sound silly for wanting a reward for something you should be doing.  But most go bashing these days to get those rewards.  Seems that we may want to go out of our way to encourage RP these days and not only on quest.  
 

 I know I used to get XP several times a week for sitting and RPing. There were a few GM's that would seem to make their rounds and hand out XP for those were RPing.  I think most of those are no long GMing for whatever reason.  So this question is really for the active GM's...
 

 When do you give XP for those RPing and what brings you to do it?
 

 Do you give it to everyone that is RPing?  Only those that are showing good quality of RP?  
 

 If it is only the those showing what you think is good xp... what do you consider 'good' RP?

Fixed Bugs / Wilderness Hide in Plain Sight
« on: June 02, 2009, 10:01:46 pm »
Description: Unable to hide in some forest.  It seems to only work in certain area's. The one I noted today was in the Great forest when Emie was traveling back to Hilm.  

It gives the message ~ You need natural surroundings to camouflage yourself in front of your foes.

Can't get much more natural than the Great Forest. I thought maybe it was because  bear was attacking her so I calmed the bear and went to a different part of the screen and tried it again.  Still got the same message.

Location: Great forest

Verified: No

Reproducable: Yes
