    People are making me want to alt in Hallifax.

    I do know, however, that it's a trap.
    There are no traps. All the details are written out! Finding them is another matter.

    The other thing is, I don't even know what I would play as in Hallifax, especially since I don't want to be a trill, and I don't know how to describe lucidians....

    She is a prismatic lucidian and is a living rock. She glows with emotions from time to time. Watch and you'll see. She is wearing a pair of glassblade gloves, a grey tunic, plain grey trousers, and a canvas backpack.

    You can be things other than trill or lucidian. :(
    I used to make cakes.

    I still need to make a lobo in Halli just to interact with Daraius one of these days.  Soon.

    I could, but then I'll probably never make level 80, and everyone who RPs knows that being under level 80 bites because you need to sleep. :(

    ... I guess I could try rolling a tae'dae sentinel or something... not like I know how to warrior. What could possibly go wrong?™

    Technically, I'd have said dracnari too, but eh... Dracs are Gaudi-based, so... *shrug* Anyway... you got plenty of choices there. :P

  • Yeah, lucidians are kind of hard, since they're humanoid but lack in a lot of the common features we use to tell humans apart-- no hair, no skin color. Here's a few suggestions for questions to answer in a lucidian description. While they are almost universally translucent, and change color to indicate emotional state, their bodies do tend to have a dominant hue which changes slowly if at all, so a lucidian may for example be primarily amethyst-tinged. This color often has gradients, shading lighter or darker throughout the body. Opalescence is common. More superficially, lucidians tend to be creatures of planes and angles; common words are "angular" or "austere." Eye colors are often jewel tones, ranging from your usual sapphire blues and emerald greens to beryl yellow, ruby red, and amethyst purple. Many have spiky things on their heads that vaguely emulate hair. Sometimes it actually looks like hair, and sometimes it's more like spiky crystals that you'd see in a geological museum. Hope that helps!

    Pray to Isune Please don't grief ZouAlt, we need to steal her heart from Viravain

It's because so many facets of the game are outright broken and protected by those who benefit from it being that way. An overabundance of gimmicks (including game-breaking ones), artifacts that destroy any concept of balance, blatant pay-to-win features, and an obsession with convenience that makes few things actually worthwhile all contribute to the game's sad decline.

  • How often is too often to do advertising on the market channel? As far as HELP SPAM is concerned, I mean.

  • Isune did it.
    I'm Lucidian. If I don't get pedantic every so often, I might explode.
  • Personally, I run my ads every 60 minutes. A long time ago, I used to run them every 15 minutes, and I remember there were some people who weren't too fond of that (to the point of snubbing me as opposed to gagging the lines).

  • Also, I can't help but guess that Tweets look the way they do by virtue of having lots of posts. Granted, I don't see why it would get messed up by that, but I seem to recall the old forums had a similar problem. And Tweets is (as far as I can tell) the biggest thread around.
