Either option is useful in certain circumstances. A toggle is best.
Everiine said: The reason population is low isn't because there are too many orgs. 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.
I tend to keep mine down because if I get hit by bn/p5 and I didn't have truedeaf up, I can hit TH and walk away

I know most of the interaction was me talking at you, but I enjoyed the conversation with @Lillie, it's this sort of interacting with people in a personal way (and yes preaching, she just can't help it) and adding depth and purpose to my character vie roleplay that really sparks my interest in the game. Thanks for being an avid listener!
You loom over the pitiful form of Lillie and plunge your hands into her chest, ripping out her heart. You offer the bloody organ up to the Demon Lords of Nil, and are rewarded with an ecstatic surge of power and might.
You have slain Lillie.
Your soul cries out in ecstasy as it reaches new heights of power. You have advanced to level 100.
You have reached the illustrious level of Demigod.
You have received 25 Bound Credits!
You feel your innermost energies growing to extreme proportions as a darkness takes over your senses. When your senses return, you find yourself in a different location and there is a strange feeling within you.
A log of the short ceremony surrounding that can be found here!
The Necromentate's mind opens to you, and a grotesque, demonic figure appears in your mind's eye, screaming in torment: "THE DEMON LORDS CAN NEVER TRULY BE KILLED - GREAT IS THEIR POWER."
You shock a platinum-coloured geomycus with tales of terror bestowed on villages who don't follow Magnagora. A platinum-coloured geomycus slaps her knee and declares that, by the gods, Ptoma Hive should follow the Grand Empire of Magnagora after all! Shouts rise up from Ptoma Hive, as its denizens loudly pledge themselves to the Grand Empire of Magnagora.
I got my first player kill!... I got enemied for it... but I got my first player kill!
I'm sorry for killing you, Enyalida. If it's worth much consolation you didn't give me a lot of experience. I hope you didn't lose a lot of Demigod essence stuff for dying to me.

If I remember correctly, you only lose large amounts of essence if you die in enemy territory. Dying in neutral territory off-prime has a much smaller penalty, plus 100,000 essence if you use PHOENIX. Dying in home territory has a rather small penalty, something like 25k essence.
Never put passion before principle. Even if you win, you lose.
If olive oil comes from olives, where does baby oil come from?
If vegetarians eat vegetables, what do humanitarians eat?

There's an easy solution if you're that sorry. Don't go raiding. Problem solved.
Forgiveness is the fragrance that the violet sheds on the heel that has crushed it.
Rave for @Zyphora being the best fellow designer and artistic collaborator ever. I love that I can casually comment, "You know, we could use some more <insert noun> designs,' and an hour later she'll have five fully written designs ready, all of which are stunningly gorgeous and (in the case of food designs) extremely delicious-sounding. Thank you for bringing your seemingly never-ending inspiration and flair for writing lovely things.

I could say the same about you! Minus the five+ designs waiting in our shared file for me when I get home. More like one very long design, but far more gorgeous than any of my five short ones. :x
Though I don't think anyone actually wanted her to read it out loud. It would have been greatly expedient to first make a common translation, flame it, and drop it on the ground for everyone to read at their own pace (much faster).
I preferred it Marcella's way (and I heard somesuch about being threatened with the Shoe if she didn't do it as specified). People would've started conversing and spoiling while I'd only be halfway through the book!

Thank god for caffeine, I didn't want to miss the first decent godrealm fight in months.
The divine voice of Avechna, the Avenger reverberates powerfully, "Congratulations, Morkarion, you are the Bringer of Death indeed."
You see Estarra the Eternal shout, "Morkarion is no more! Mourn the mortal! But welcome True Ascendant Karlach, of the Realm of Death!
When your team is grossly outnumbered like earlier, having this option is wise. Very wise.
Outgunned however? Yep.
