Toying with the idea of starting a new character... and seeing about a bit of recruiting.

Awesome!! Would love to see you back, Pook.

On the recruiting business, if I have friends out of state that I'd like to encourage to make characters and learn, is it acceptable to coordinate times to be online for the purposes of helping newbies through the ropes? I don't see anything specific. I have been encouraging them at this point to read up on some of the help files and make a new character (or two) to learn the basic commands and way around.

Yes, that's absolutely fine! (self-edited)

The new code behind the group system now actually allows you to form a group with a certain purpose, or for certain levels/alignments, that can broadcast out to generate an email that you're looking for people to adventure.

Welcome back!

I’ve been away for some odd months now. I’d like to return, but i’d Need some convincing.
What am I missing out on? What changes have happened recently that would be appealing to a returner? What is the player count looking like? During busy hours? How about slow hours?
What in-game conflicts are occurring? I’d like to PK again. Any active PK’rs playing? Or is everyone a fountain RP’r/adventurer?
What vets do we have playing now days? Finney got banned and syn quit. I quit too out of anger regarding the ban. Others quit too.
Anyone let back into the game recently?
Convince me.


I think we could use some more adversarial characters with a focus on PK. The usual suspects for PK-heavy RP do seem to be lacking. Come kill my characters.

I don't play during peak times because I'm in Europe but most days there's no lack of people to play with. More is better, though.

Be careful what you wish for. :devil:

No, but really, I'm not sure the game will see a resurrection of PK. It's not super fun when the who list caps at around 10 people, and it also hurts the game in a way, because if you /are/ actively engaged in PK, it makes people waaaay less likely to stay logged on if they log on and have no friends on. --And PKing with low who lists makes it harder to get enough people together to do PvE stuff.

I came back after 2+ years of not playing because I wanted to, not because I needed convincing. Besides, not like I can give you another poppy flower that you will eat without question. Not at the moment anyway.

Did you play Kirlin? I licked a toad without question. That was weird.
What poppy flower are you talking about? Lol
Welcome back.
Between this post and a post on another site, I might be willing to try.

I've been back for a little while now and have been enjoying it. There's plenty of people to RP with, lots of adventuring happening, and more people on that I expect at odd hours. I just logged in around 8AM EST and was surprised to see 7 people on and ran into a few of them. Peak numbers are pushing 20 most days lately.

I suggest people give it a go if they're on the fence about it.

Nope, though Kirlin was a mentor and friend to the character. I played Vhenris. (Recently died from not logging on. 300+ year old living human.)
At the time, we were standing in Krychire with mostly Imperials and I handed you the poppy flower without explanation. You ate it without question.
