If you don't want to buy them, don't! They can be attained without paying a dime. You can get it with goop next month, and you can earn goop in ways that don't give them a profit. I'm debating whether to buy some or just wait to use goop, for exa…

I mean, this thread already explains that second paragraph? It was something that Estarra could throw together easily, it didn't take any dev time off of any other projects, and it's attempting to address a concern people have been coming …

While I do understand what you're saying, I do have to ask: Is it preferable that the person quit the game because they see only 2 people on CWHO and nobody anywhere else, or that they stick around and keep playing (no matter where th…
Saying "Lavinya wanted a refund" isn't going over the top or calling you a crazy person, by the by. Not sure where you got that from. Our disagreement is that it doesn't make the present power of the mirror freely available, though (which I also m…

This happens regularly. I have omniscience so I point out to newbies when they are talking and can't be heard by the bulk of people (because we're on Astral or on a bubble), and suggest they speak on the Collegium (because tha…
Tells are indeed planar-limited. I can't see any reason why they wouldn't be able to do something where if you send a tell to someone you can see on CWHO / QW, but don't have the planar to tell them, the system says "You don't have enough planar to…
Keep in mind that guides are player-volunteers. The rules for what should be left to guides are in helpfiles (such as "do not try to make newbies namechange, only guides should do that"). Other than that, it really is better if more people help ne…
I used to guide. I had to drop it because of time requirements; five hours guiding was five hours of my already-limited play time not spent on my character (and a lot of it being really quiet...).
It is not really a nerf to the artifact imo. It still would do exactly what I bought it to do: show me the room names & planes of everyone without a cloaking gem. You would not get any of that without the artifact. (Note that this was th…
If you do just that, you can use WHO to find all those people who no longer have cloaking gems. For example, if I go 1 room into the Undervault and do WHO, everyone who shows up at that point is in the UV (and has a decent chanc…
We went for RL months without posts being deleted or warnings being applied. All that happened was threads being closed after a few days of venting / piling on, then people would wait a few days and start up in the next thread. "Not silencing…
Venting for RL months straight has not helped people to "get over it and progress". I feel like the admin tried this for months; threads got closed from time to time but people were not given warnings, so it just kept... going. …
Well, some things are just fundamentally skewed by artifacts. For example, enchantment charges cost me nothing to make except the time spent hovering over my cube. I can sell them for 1 gold and make a profit if I really want to (doesn't seem…
The trade-specific ones had someone request their release as buyable packs each time. I don't think anyone requested baton packs, though. The other ones are all significantly older, so nobody probably even considered that they …
The way I read this is that the real "proposed solution" here is the first bit (splitting up the breakdown comms by type), and then the converting crucibles can help with that... but the biggest thing that they will do is help ou…
Hmm. What if you did it so that each curio can only be used 1x per month and consumes 10 comms? The first time you use a crystal crucible curio, you burn 10 comms and get 8 back. The second crystal crucible, you burn 10 and get 6. Third on…
I kind of like the concept of the curios, actually. I think the conversion rate is too high to be worthwhile though. Preferably it would be no higher than 2:1 (that is already a significant wiping of comms).
The majority of an org isn't going to go, "Yeah, we're fine with just one guild reflecting our gameplay desires." The org itself (and all the guilds therein) are going to change. There is certainly nothing shrubbable about that; if the player…
I have a question. What happens if you delete Glomdoring (note: I do not expect this to happen, because deleting one of the more populous orgs is just a bad idea, but for the sake of conversation)?
