i think everyone that was there remembers your contribution to the temple event. Seriously, the game isnt called Ryzom: Special Jyudas Edition, it's just Ryzom. make choices like everyone else, dont expect the game and the community to change to suit you. It's got very old. |

Re: A Possible Third Group (Faction ?)
All of my previous "constructive" points were working on the assumption that it would be implemented as a new 3rdParty seperate from the current "unaligned neutral" group. FWIW there's not one iota of my being that thinks unaligned players should get anything more than they have already, so I guess I'm out of this discussion.

I do wonder if you read what I say, over and over and over... I'm for an inclusive game, rather than an exclusive one. |

I could tell you what my actual heart's desire would be. It wouldn't be what I have been proposing/negotiating. This is why I'm arguing for a more open neutral 'faction'. All it really needs is the functionality and the freedom to represent your play as you desire without being crippled by it. I don't know why this never gets through (see Rushin's post later) but let me state it as boldly and plainly as I can. I want an inclusive game that incorporates as many different points of view and ways to play as possible. I don't like PvPers or PvP, but they should be able to do it. Equally, I should be able to avoid it. There should be room for people to play as they prefer within the context of the game and to enjoy it. What about pirates, what about denominations of the existing factions, the black circle, slavers, what about moonies and Kitin worshipers? Quote:
Add a PvP flag for neutrals (Pick a side or one that can fight both of the others) as an option and you get your pirates and your bandits and your evildoers. Kitin worshippers and things like the dragon cult, that's 90% RP but people that want to play those things should not be cut off from being able to play the game effectively. I'm certainly not talking about taking the religious or philosophical conflict away. If anything I think it is being dumbed down by being arbitrarily split in two. Its been much less interesting since it has been going binary and since the 'Tryker first!' lot and the hominists have taken a beating or lost faith in the game. Enabling people to PLAY effectively and enjoy themselves does not undermine anything and makes things more involving and returns some of the shades of grey. Who wouldn't pick self determination? Well judging from responses here and the state of play in game, enough, more than enough. Quote:
There would be reduced opportunity to access OPs and OP materials and goods. Less people to ally with for boss hunts. Less opportunity to get hold of special skirts, picks and everything else. That's the disadvantage. Just don't render the game relatively 'unplayable'*. *exaggeration for effect, substitute 'less fun' if it ruffles your feathers. |

Says who ? I say false gods, false religions. They have knowledge, they have power. The lore states that the peoples of Atys were united. The lore says they were lead by heroes who drove the kitin back. No reason in the world of Atys that the spirits of these dead heroes could not return and provide abalance against the zealotry of the factions. |

How would they do it? How would they move players across atys? Magic? Don't the Kami have a corner on that market? What would the heros believe? Homin unity? Kittin are bad? pretty vanilla, don't you think? Everyone wants that. What sets them apart? All of I have seen of your hero faciton are things everyone wants, and we have been over why that won't work. |

'we' came to an acceptable position ?.... Disregarding the amount of opposition and concern posts, and taking into account several posts that thought there were a couple of plausible points raised...I guess you could summarise as you did. Of course this would require me to ignore another concern you often raise grimjim, that the forum becomes driven by a vocal minority. |

Well, GJ and I came to an acceptable compromise...which hardly ever happens, so it is sort of suprising. And it is acceptable contingent the details, of course, which we probably disagree on. But, really, I am hardly the arbiter of game changes. In theory, I don't find allowing non-facitoned access to a few high level teleporters for a vastly inflated price to be so bad. But, what do I know? And I certainly have no influence on how the game evolves, so really all this was probably an exercise in futility. But, I enjoy it anyway. |

Strangely enough that's not one that I often bring up, it's one brought up against me. Though I think it has become more that way thanks to The Usual Suspects and is less useful than it once was. |
