Shattered Kingdoms

He said hi, I welcomed him. MsPooperTrooper already answered his question in a great way, and I offered him the advice of ignoring the statements made by a troll who A) doesn't play, and B) has proven themselves largely incapable of making a post that doesn't either insult SK or its players. A brief glimpse at your most recent posts illustrates that.

Of all the lessons to learn about playing SK, one of the most important is the fact that you have to take the bad with the good. I find it important to note that you aren't someone that he's going to interact with in-game, and as such he shouldn't worry too much about the negativity you spout out of game on the forums.

BlackFox: I would also say that the mentor command, and also the tell command, is your friend. If you find yourself tired of leveling or looking for some RP, looking at the who list for people who seem to be the same alignment as you and offering up a request to meet up and maybe get some pointers is a good idea: There's a decent chance that any given person will be busy doing something else, but you shouldn't have to ask too many people before you get someone free.

Hi, BlackFox! I'm usually around on my character Dairune. So, if I'm around, I love to rp. Not so keen on rushing through levels. Anyways. I'm usually in inns and the like, so...stop on by?

Yeah, you should always ignore Grep. He/She likes to troll and talk bad about the game which they don't even play.

Welcome!

HI! You will likely never meet my character, because I do not play much anymore. BUT if you ever notice Ivstnesr on feel free to shout at her, I love helping people in this game, it is the only way it will stay alive!

Well, thanks you for your incite. I'll do my best to not become a hindrance while I seek out the purpose I wish to establish here in Shattered Kingdoms. It sadden me, however, to know that the advice already given was the same advice given seven plus years ago to other newbies. ...one moment, need to cry in a corner now.

Well, if anyone who catches this "advertisement", I figure I'd bring back the Yamatith Family line. character's name is, of course, Yamatith (clan/tribal name), and now I'm seeking purpose as well as a calling card/calling (name) in Pyrathia. I'm far more mature than I was in the past, thank gawd, and, I'm kinda Jones-ing to enjoy the soothing role play only MUDing can provide.

Figure I dig up meh old logs to show proof of my claims:

OMG, SK has Nazis.

LMAO

Just because its negative, doesn't make it untrue. The OOC connection thing -is- helpful for getting into the RP scene. That's how I got into this game was basically being handheld by an OOC friend through learning. That said, I also got the great luck of mentoring one day on my sorceror, and meeting Menkh. She's helped me ICly a ton, and OOC when IC just doesn't quite cut it. So another suggestion is mentoring and hoping to foster a meaningful friendship. But, then, I don't have a lot of experience in the game, so take that at face value as well.

I just bother random people. Or strike up random conversations. Even with NPCs.

Oh good. I'm not the only one. I've had long conversations with Will-o-wisps before, just because well... if I'm where the will-o-wisps are, you can guess that I'm bored and waiting.
