Thats alot of members.  To bad they all do not have Characters. Well if all of them had characters, just imagine what the server lag would be like.

I am posting this to let everyone know that our family will be leaving the current version of Layonara. We are in the process of making some major transitions in our lives (retirement, starting college, moving to a new state, starting a farm, and more) With all of the changes in the near future we have decided to focus our attention on getting our new real lives established and in balance before we fill up all of our spare time with Layo. We are all true addicts in the best sense of the word and have thoroughly enjoyed the last few years we have been able to play here. Great job to all of the players and L and the team for providing something unique in online gaming! We are very much looking forward to the new version of Layo and hopefully by the time that comes out we will have everything in order and be able to make a good decision about when to get back into the game and at what level of commitment. You may see a couple of us around for a few days to take care of some last minute issues and we will stil be around on the forums from time to time so feel free to PM us and if any of us owe anyone money or anything please let us know so we don't stiff anyone by our absence.
This applies to the following players/characters:
Skywatcher/Clarissa
Mooneyes/Clover, Peanut, Keela
Halfwit Genious/Kalin
Dalila/Rose,Melana If you need an experienced farm hand just give me a call or PM me.

Hallelujah.
The one thing that has always made the Layo community stand out is the maturity of the majority of the players. This is not ageism - I have met players that I got along with like a crony and was stunned (and pleased) to discover they were 14, 17. And while most players will ask others for help - there are a few Layo folk who have been on the receiving end of one of my extended whines recently - most of us know when to step back. And when to give back.
And then, there are players who have problems that transcend the cathartic relief that Layo gives us from our day-to-day lives, players who become either too wrapped up in the game or who need far more help than a disembodied text over an avatar's head can provide. We've all read the news from time to time presumably - suicide is not a joke, and I applaud Hanna for taking steps that a lot of people would not have taken in order to possibly save a young life.
However, it appears (and I will certainly rescind this if more information is made public) that the call for help was not as sincere as it could have been, and as Nhet said, it becomes very not funny at that point. I believe it's griefing, absolutely. And I think the team did the right thing under the circumstances. And Honora, what the heck is up with the Hallelujah? I do not appreciate the words you types towards my good friend. You speak of maturity, why do you bring up this? It does not make since, if you want to go as far as say Krell was immature, then I must say you were very immature that you posted that. Posting Hallelujah is something my 6 year old cousin would say. If not then disregard the above statements.

You know, I've been sitting about, thinking on this whole issue (as I had found myself becoming friends with Krell shortly before his ban, and thusly was told everything - well, everything he'd tell straight - as it unfolded, more or less) for a while. And there's a lot to think about - the good of the community, of various individuals within and without that community, of plain and simple moral ideals... But I've come to a few conclusions.
I disagree very strongly, for personal and moral reasons, with Leanthar's decision to ban him - or, rather, for his reasons for doing so. I'm sure there are those who agree with those reasons; I understand that, and don't hold any ill will for it. However, having been in a similar life situation, I feel that an instant, permanent ban is absolutely unwarranted. This isn't blatant sexual harassment that's in question, here, but some kid reaching out for whatever help he could find. I've been there.
I disagree (if not quite as strongly) with Krell's decision to bring this out in the way that he did. While the one "truth about the ban" thread might not've been too terrible, the other(s?) was over the line of what's reasonable. I'd been very happy that he was taking the ban so well, and was being so goodnatured about it... Leaving well-wishes for folks here and the like. It's disappointing, to me, that it's fallen out this way.
All in all, I suppose you could say I'm still sitting on the fence, thinking about all of this. I don't think either party really got it right. I'm not sure how this whole situation bodes for the community. I'm not sure about a lot.
Ah, well. *Tips his hat.* I agree with this guy. I have not been on very much since I started me new job, but I did know Krell alot. Possibly more than any of you all here, actually I do know him more than all of you. He was one of just a few people that would actually help the lower lvls. I know he is not the suicidal type aswell. It is called a joke. At least from my expierience with him it is. See, he believes that suicide is for the weak, as do I. Both me and him do not like todays society because alot of people commit suicide, which means that this society is weak. My father always said I was born in the wrong time period. Thats enough about my thoughts. Just got one question though, Can Leanther still be liable because he kicked him out, driving him further? Since this is America and anyone can be sued or put on trial for just about anything.

The main problem I have with being a lower lvl is that when I go on a DM quests, I will say something and then it will be ignored. So lately I have not been on any DM quests, and do not plan until I get my PC higher lvl so that what I say will not be ignored.
But I must say, there are a few people out there that do not ignore the lower lvls nearly as much.
My dwarf is lvl 9 now, I will most likely wait till he is lvl 12 until I take him on quests. I still RP with him though. I will sometimes spend over an hour RPing.

Hell ya I have been muddin!! But, I have only been stuck once. :p That was on the last Christmas as well.  But I was in my S-10 at the time and got myself out.  The first time I shot a 30-06 was when I was 8 years old. Do not really remember if it hurt, was a long time ago. I think it didn't. I shot a 12 Gauge Shotgun when I was 6. (uncle thought it was funny) But that one hurt like the dickens. I almost forgot to mention my combine, it is a '78 John Deere!! I love that combine.

another thing you forgot besides elven memories is smell
especially if you have been seen in all your altered forms but you still have the same components and normal magey things on or about your person
fire mages smell like smoke alot
dead critter mages smell like dead critters and yes those would stick in a memory Smell does NOT tell you the persons name. Smell really does not make any difference when in a different look is applied, he can easily take a bath to remove the smell.
