Title: For the Glory of Ikalak
Post by: JeVondair on May 22, 2014, 07:17:01 PM
I am starting this thread so that new and returning players may keep abreast of what's going on. When I started, I entered in the middle of a conversation and felt a bit inundated. Here, we can post list for political candidates and so on, at least until everyone get's their bearings and the government is set up. Thereafter, who knows?

Please keep IC discussions in the game. Don't conduct IC business on the forum.

But with the character cap, perhaps it would be good for people looking to join later on, to have access to this information? Not to mention it is quite interesting :)

Anyhow the moderator's decision is final but I feel this is perhaps an exception considering circumstances?

Exactly right. If it weren't for the shear volume of messages being sent back and forth, I would be happy to keep it entirely IC, but as it stands now...

You can talk about things. Describe what has happened. Provide reports on events.

But all IC discussion needs to stay in the game. It is more important that people in the game are allowed to participate, than for forum observers to stay up to date.

holy messages batman! I've been on since the beginning and can barely keep up. Everytime I go to look at another character there's more messages!

... not that its' a bad thing. I don't think I've ever seen this much activity on BM!

If you are just trying to have a place for info, use the wiki. Its a perfect use for it, keeping track of campaigns and such.

The insatiable Orobos stands with Ikalak! Let us push deep into our enemies guts and make them shiver.

Is my mind in the gutter or is Orobos one big double entendre?

I'm not sure if 'big' is sufficient to describe his entendre. The girth of his innuendo will become legend.

Yes. too much noise :D This was the reason why people screamed to have forum back in the days. There is now 90 unread messages :D Too much for Jaune. Looks like it is hard to have good balance.. either there is too little or too much :P

This election season reeks of desperation. Now I know how a 10 feels on OKCupid.

It will calm down one the novelty wears off. People are just too excited now.

I can't keep up. I've stopped reading all messages unless I'm personally addressed, even then you might want to use some fancy colored paper.

That's what it used to be like. It was pretty hard to keep up with all the letters. It is easier these days though since you can just sort things by name with the search letter option.

Now we're reduced to the Mermen clans insisting the island was never underwater, and them being told they're horribly, horribly wrong.
