So I've hardly been able to play lately. My dog has cancer, haven't felt up to playing much at all as a result of that. As a result I just haven't been voting and hadn't realized that the voting cycles for the metrics and stuff was so tight. I think that it is far too quick then, if that is the case...

Because someone had to build them in the first place... It's not like your character just so happens to be skilled in masonry and can build their own rooms. See my explanation above, because I had the exact same question sometime ago, but instead of discussing it with fellow players who don't know ...

But we don't force people to act thematically with code. We don't force people to only wear their class's clothing; we don't limit people from picking up sword as a skill even if they're Joe Blow freeman. Adding a serious limitation to prevent people from battling mages is a step further than we've...

As a non knight who fights mages, the only times I've ever been doing that is at the Order discretion. The Order does tend to draw upon non knights to assist fairly often in game because there aren't enough Orderites to cover. I don't think there is actually -that- many cases of non knights actively...

And initially no one would have it higher than 36. People would need to be throwing themselves in and fighting them all the time in combat for this coded skill to raise. There would be no good way to get it to where you could reliably train it to people anytime soon. Therefore during the period afte...

I think that the skill would actively hurt people assisting the knights at their request and could end up discouraging people from that rp all together because it's an xp sink just to be able to do the job of fighting mages/demons on top of the need for multiple combat skills to be at all effective ...

I like Dice's idea. Give knights a specific bonus vs the mind controls/what not. Have it be a bit higher based upon rank. The idea of the skill seems at first like it could help with the before situation, but it makes things even more 'gamey' and I don't think I would like it in practice.

Right, but the courtier who started the rumor still heard it from a player in that example, and through any number of methods could be compelled to tell you who they overheard saying it. That's where it being flat out impossible becomes difficult, logic-wise. +1. Plus in game you can use a lot more...

Kinaed questions, "Today's Agenda is: - Staff Updates - Player Heartbeat - Player Topics Is there anything anyone would like to add to the agenda to make certain we discuss it today?" Kiana questions, "I was asked to bring up code unconsciousness and the effects on RP if that's ok Kin?" Kinaed claim...

I would also point out that when you put up a rumor there is a source option. I agree that general reporting on incidents should be bypstanders, but if you are injecting your personal view into it you should take responsability. If we have no way to react to the emote other than to maybe occasionall...
