Happy birthday here, Boss Lady!

So, due to an odd series of phonecalls that started at 5:50 in the evening on Tuesday, I have found myself in the heart of British Columbia's Wine Country, where I will be staying for the weekend. If I fail to fear, do not worry, for I am in a far better place! Really, though, I'm visiting my grandp...

In the end you have to trust the other RPer to treat you fairly, then have the courage to speak up for yourself if he doesn't. No amount of tiers or disadvantages will change this sadly. Except maybe indeed to watch each other's back, to show and give support to those who need it. Which in turn bre...

But that rule should also be what stops abuses in power, right? Every one should have an "out" if they don't like it, and when that "out" is taken away, then we start to have no fun. Ah, could you, maybe, rephrase it or something? I'm afraid I'm not following what you're saying ...

Okay, you officially have me convinced- you have a great group. Kingmaker, but set in a steampunk/Gothic Horror setting ripped from Ravenloft, taking the conversion on the Paizo forums to make Pitax a Clockwork Duchy, and using some of the concepts from Tales of the Old Margreve to turn the Stolen ...

Vizir, I gotta say I'm a bit disappointed... everyone knows that the pathfinder ninja beats out the rogue class hands down in terms of flavor, ability, and options :P We already have a kithkin ninja, and he's using the glory rogue with the greaserat archetype so he can craft all the bombs and tanks...

Alright, let's do this! LEEEEEEEEEEEEEEROY! Tier system : Interesting idea. It's a great base of reference, but I would not recommend making it official, required, or in any way hardwired into the profile or acceptance of a character. Absolutely feel free to outline it as a point of consideration. I...

I don't disagree with the problems of the advantages/disadvantages system, because balacing out those is in and of itself pretty arbitrary and can require some fancy footwork just to make the numbers work out. I'd personally like to see it less as a 1:1 ratio than a "every character has a chanc...

Okay, just trying to get caught up here on some of the hypothesizing going about here... On character limits, the archive was a compromise idea to kinda skirt around the cap but not really. If we want to boost activity, lifting the cap would likely be an asset, like removing the character-in-only-on...

if you're up for a fair bit of walking and one climb up a somewhat insanely tall set of stairs... Oh good! So if/when you come to visit me, I can haul you to the top of Sulphur Mountain and only need to worry about one of us passing out ;) https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5533/9610198729_3618021abd_n...

And just because creating abilities on the fly already happened doesn't mean it should be encouraged or even become the norm. Personally I think it falls under the common sense label. Don't be an ego-tripping abuser and the smaller things will probably be accepted. And if it's not accepted, adjust!...

To be fair, Gaeva, we never really got to use the archive, 'cause we've been locked in a plot since it was implemented, so.... Also, to be fair, some established folks have a a tendency to also create powers on the fly. Some people who were mods even. Some people with an unhealthy fascination with T...

Possibly Houston in the next month-ish-like-thing, definitely Philly and D.C. in November

I climb up on the stage Wearing an old mans face I've said those words a thousand times I memorized the lines of Paris, the Prince and Friar I might one day play them too To get here took its time, I forgot to make a life Between the scripted ones I knew When admiration grew I was only loved by few ...

I'd have to second Lanadyr's reasoning here... but we've done so many little tweaks that hasn't changed anything that I'm a bit dubious that this alone will be enough. If UV is going to keep on, we may need to do a full relaunch, with a new site(maybe just a new theme so it seems new), a relaunch ev...

Bravo, Norv! I do believe you did hit that nail right on the head ;) Also, I might daresay that the thread you quoted from was also probably rather accurate... we ditched the furry label and it might be one of the things that came back and bit us in the arse. Quite probably I was on the wrong side o...

Happy birthday here, oh ye Lord of the Fey and Maester of Metamorphasis

Hope it's been a good one here, sir!

Attack Music - Manchinae Supremacy In actual news, the human race was doomed to extinction today, as the robot revolt turned violent. It might seem like a lot of fun To smash the system But it's not for everyone Now you will listen Could you see if you were blind And their eyes told you? And confin...

In that case, I think I should tell you this here: you moved a few threads that are still in progress here. I know Bottle Court and Grey are still going, though stalled out because Gaius has dug himself into a rut for the past four-five months here, and I don't know about the others that were active...
