RP General Discussion

I would test the water with Aion to see what reaction there is.

If it's a negative response then I won't bother.

Though that would have to wait till I get full interwebz again.

Good day Major, how you been?

For some reason I feel I will be like a mere toddler against giants with your veteran RPers

I've been well and busy.

Not that I'm pushing you to do anything, but I want to let you folks know that you'll never know until you try it. Everyone has something new to bring to the table, like a villager bringing an ingredient to their village's annual mystery stew. Besides, I have to give you all credit: you've managed to keep a lot of RPs here going strong. A lot of the communities I've been on are short and sweet and leave us wanting more, but nobody is coming back up to the buffet table.

well then.. I'll give it a shot for you

um.. can you give me a quick summary about your RP?
Im still at work and getting busier

[Major Mario]

Summary: There's a fantasy realm called Idunno in which there's the continent of Alia. Tons of races, magic, you name it. Currently there's a civil war between order and chaos. Shades of grey.

Definitively looks interesting. I see that you expanded upon the world a lot, while also keeping most core things intact. I did notice that you moved the "jumping to year XXXX" one hounded years back.

I do have a question regarding the old info, is it still valid? I'm talking like the old map, the old information about the districts and so on.

Also, why did you change the theme? I liked the other one better.

As for the actual character, is there something in between knight and squire? Something where they are not under anyone else in the same way as a squire, but they are still not a full worthy knight?

Oh and as for storing that app somewhere, would it be okay if I used the old Knights of Dimhaven thread? I mean, there isn't anyone else using it for anything.

1. The old info is no longer valid, Katrix. The new map as it is places Dimhaven in a new spot, and that means the port-town setup is no longer correct. The current layout of Dimhaven is heavily influenced by Gran Soren from Dragon's Dogma. However, for the most part, whatever information I may have put down about the districts is still accurate.

2. The theme needed to be changed because I couldn't have everything taking place in one city, no matter how large it was. Even in Dragon Age 2, while most of the action happens in Kirkwall, you have to venture out time and time again to get things done. Exploration is wonderful, and I can't do that in one city. By having multiple places to go to, a player would be able to explore and be subject to ambushes and other areas in between city A and city B. Also, wars are nice because if you have players take two different sides and clash together, the content basically makes itself.

3. In between a knight and a squire? Why, that would be a journeyman, someone who is well-trained in their craft but not yet worthy to be considered a master.

4. Of course you can use the old KoD thread in Yukkuricraft. Go ahead.

Well... I think college staff might have cracked down on my Crunchyroll usage. That or there's a bug in the college network.

Let me explain what I mean for those who don't know:
In my college, there are computers available to people need/want to use them. These computers run on an OS which requires the user to login and enter their credentials before they may use them for the duration of usage. Due to this, it is possible for the network admins to monitor and control computer usage. So a number of sites (including social networks and pornographic sites) are banned.
There is a special exception to some of these bans known as the "Restricted Use Policy". This is where certain sites are labelled as "against policy" but may be accessed and used. The policy states that these sites are monitored and one can be punished for accessing them. But that has yet to actually happen. Any time you access a site that has been flagged as against policy, you will be redirected to a webpage which shows this policy and Terms and Conditions. Of course, this is designed to ward people off and make them aware that they can be punished for their actions. But you simply just accept the Terms and Conditions and get on with your day. Of course, the policy refreshes every hour or so meaning that you need to F5 and then re-accept the T&Cs.

The problem lies in the fact that I was watching some anime on Crunchyroll. A harmless act that wouldn't be any cause for concern outside of the fact that people can argue that I'm "slacking off". But once I was done with an episode, the policy intervened. Much too soon for my typical sessions. When I accepted the T&Cs, the policy came back up. Like instantly. Refusing to go away. I have spam clicked the Accept button, I have spaced out my clicks, I have logged out and back in, and I have even switched computers and no luck.

Due to this, I am left with two possible reasons behind this. Either the policy is bugged and it immediately forgets that I have clicked Accept. OR. This is the staff's way of giving me the middle finger. Either one is plausible at this moment. The only way I know how to test this is to ask someone else if they are willing to briefly go on YouTube. If they can get on it fine then I am f*cked. If they can't then either the network is bugged or the admins have done a complete lockdown on all users.

So in short, I am left waiting in the middle of the college's study building with nothing to do except wait and see if the network admins are going to approach me and give me a bitch slap. A bitch slap that I've "deserved" for about 1 and a half years now.

EDIT: I used my ninja techniques to use a computer that a friend of mine was using. By attempting to access YouTube, I have found that the incident is occurring across all user accounts. This has led me to believe that this is either a bug or that the admins are locking down the entire network. If either is true, this thing should only be temporary. Not that I'll know because I won't be able to test later today and that I won't have time to test tomorrow.

Hi there TR

what an odd thing to happen, atleast you aren't being punished or a sanction

While you wait, you can post in the RPs :P

[Luna Pixu]

@Kristia
Hmm... I shouldn't be. I honestly think this is a bug. If they wanted to shut me down or punish me then I wouldn't even be on here right now. Yukkuricraft isn't banned (yet) so I can still post here. And besides, I'm using an alternative method to watch anime. An unblocked but crappy streaming site. One that does not even have the anime that I want to watch. On the other hand, it does have Kiniro Mosaic. So I'll be watching an episode or two of that instead.

And about RPing... Unless I actually start using Grotias in TSU or apply for another RP, I won't be doing any of the sort. Because neither SUSTIC nor Wriggle have posted in TSU and I don't want to cut to the chase on the whole thing by doing a follow-up post (which is a bad thing considering Wriggle's style of RP and SUSTIC's lack of activity).

[Kristia]

now that you mention that, Wriggle, SUS, and S121 haven't been on as usual and they are the most active users in the forum

Probably they have big exams or high demand on work
