Either Lusternia implemented RFC 857 in the last 12 hours or I'm completely oblivious and it's been longer, but either way, WOO!
Wassat?
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.
@Shaddus: Telnet echo. If your client supports it, your password should no longer be displayed when you enter it (and on MUSHclient at the very least, won't be in your command history.)
I need to see if they've added any other telopts in. Time to fire up Wireshark!
You preach to Undermind Iquaotmil, the Counter of the great glory and goodness found by those who follow the Light, and that New Celest is the bastion of the blessed. Undermind Iquaotmil, the Counter slaps her knee and declares that, by the gods, the Village of Ixthiaxa should follow the Holy Principality of New Celest after all! Shouts rise up from the Village of Ixthiaxa, as its denizens loudly pledge themselves to the Holy Principality of New Celest.

I got to help put out forest fires today. That was pretty cool. I felt like Smokey the Bear. If Smokey the Bear was not a bear at all, but instead was an elfen.

You should get a Tae'dae to help, but make sure he had a hat and pants. but no shirt. xD
The floor shakes as you fire a blast that slams into Ilhar [Ilhar]. Ilhar [Ilhar] suddenly collapses on herself! Ilhar has been destroyed by The Great Arachnid.

I want to know how low my superfast fink shooting got you guys.
Also, in case people think the battle was one-sided, a bit before the above: Gargoyle [Gargoyle] fires a blast into Engine [Engine]. Engine [Engine] suddenly collapses on herself! Engine has been destroyed by Gargoyle. Xenthos has died in the imploded wreckage of Engine. Eliron has died in the imploded wreckage of Engine. Celina has died in the imploded wreckage of Engine. Illidaen has died in the imploded wreckage of Engine. Athree has died in the imploded wreckage of Engine. Siam has died in the imploded wreckage of Engine.
What was really annoying Siam activated the Nyx, but it wasn't in the Ring, and no one realised this until Lerad came along and pointed this out. And so then I got into the colossus to move it to the ring and then it exploded(we claimed frostica). I spent the entire thing basically whining that I couldn't Focus. Gaah.

I don't know if Engine even has a shield. We were just using it to break the seal on the dock so we could whistle our own ships in (which worked, pretty psyched about that). It definitely has really tiny health. It was pretty obvious to me we were going to die in it. :P
Ilosia has a lot more health and good shielding / arties though, it wasn't in any real trouble at all. Stayed above 2/3 the whole time. If you had had one-two more turrets it would have been a different story (and much closer)!
Don't you just love when someone steals your ships and flies them away into space before the Aetherflare starts so your city doesn't have any ships?
The pettiness and shittiness of some people in this game is just mind blowing.
Don't think anyone did that, actually. Your ships were still there after it started, and we only flew one of them (left "Shuttle1" behind at the dock) for a very specific purpose.
I'm talking about our ship at the dock at Magnagora, the one we used to go to the bubbles. Shuttles are all minimum hull.
... wait, someone actually ran off with your main battleships from the Magnagora dock? I... what? Why?
Edit: That said, we had someone doing that in Glomdoring a few months ago, pretty much every flares... we had to restrict who had access to the ships by a huge degree to keep them from getting abused. It's really frustrating.

This happened to Glom in the past. Someone kept imploding our ships. We had to keep changing the perms eventually.
Viravain, Lady of the Thorns shouts, "And You would seize Me? Fool! I am the Glomdoring! I am the Wyrd, and beneath the cloak of Night, the shadows of the Silent stir!"
Yeah, I've changed the perms now to all our modules. It sucks for people who want to learn, but this is the price we pay for playing with some petty assholes who want to ruin the game for everyone else.

You know, now that it's mentioned, Shuttle1 wasn't on the bubble when we got there. We only had access to Engine. Then Arcanis arrived on the bubble and we had access to Shuttle1.
If that's the one you're referencing, Arcanis flew it to the bubble and left it there when he saw us standing on the ground.
The only Mag ship that had broken perms was Engine, because it was given by Caighan a long time ago and never bothered to be in rotation, all the rest the perms have been set to Magnagora only for a long long time (besides shuttle1 which had members of Glomdoring still).
So yeah, rave for doing that on a hungover Sunday morning!
