  3. Portland Tavern

    Even though the place was crowded and noisy, there was a silence that caught Melisande's attention, a tension piercing the athmosphere, unnoticed by most people present there. She continued softly playing her harp, while softly humming a mysterious melody. She held her eyes closed most of the time, yet she could follow every step of the dance performed by those two women, one of the draegoni race, with hair the color of dark cyan; the other elvish, her skin and hair white as snow, looking fragile yet in her golden eyes laid a touch of danger. Melisande smiled when she saw how the draegoni woman kept reaching her hand into her pocket, and whilst running her fingers through her long dark red hair, she could hear the sharp rustling of paper as the elf pulled a small crumpled note out and read it thoroughly. Again. Melisande finished the song, and for a moment gazed with her dark amber eyes at the draegoni women, who clearly did her best to go unnoticed. She smiled again when she saw the look on the elf's face when she realised they had a small detail in common, that draegoni and her. "And I will remain in shadows this time." she murmured to herself, "Watching." She took a small sip of the cup of herb tea she ordered, and continued playing quietly, peeking at the two women from time to time. Melisande's fingers softly touched the small silver necklace she wore, contrasting greatly with her dark blue skin, and she looked into the rosy pink gemstone for the last time, as she left it there, on that small tavern table, and moved to another one, in a shadowy little corner, grinning. She barely arrived at the other small table when suddenly the pale elvish lady stabbed a woman at the bar. The people sank into a state of shock, not really knowing how to react; some screaming loudely, the dwarves laughing, others pointing at her, with their mouth wide open. Quickly a strange man rushed into the tavern, surrounded by an aura of powerful magic. As his eyes wandered across the room, he noticed a woman, next to her an orchan, reaching for something in her pocket. He frowned and started to whisper magic, making his staff glow. He pointed it at the orchan, and everyone grew silent, yet they stood up and pushed each other a bit to see what was happening. Melisande was completely mystified by his sudden intervention, and noticed only now that she was playing the same note over and over on her harp. Some moments later the chaos dissolved; and from her little shadowy corner, she glanced at the mage, examining him with a slight shimmer in her eyes.

    ty so much everyone
  5. website bug - bots.php

    the link http://el.other-life.com/bots.php displays some margin bugs in internet explorer 6(windows) as well as opera 9.25 other than that the website works perfectly
  6. website bug - bots.php

    i think the problem is the following: ( i am not a website expert so i can only guess what the bug is) the background image body_top (for example) is 630 x 34 pixels but the table in which the text is placed has a width of 660 : <!-- Body --> <TD Align=Center VAlign=Top Class="Main"> (the width of the class "Main" is specified as 660 pixels in the css file) .Main { width: 660px; because the align of the table is centered, 15 pixels go over each border (15 pixels over the left border, 15 over the right) which also explains everything that comes on the right side of the table is moved -- however the funny thing is; i opened it in firefox and it worked (like you said ) but Opera gives smaller problems than (my version of) Internet Explorer so i think its better to ask someone who knows more about website programming than me, where exactly the problem lies. i hope this helps a bit; Melisande

  16. ignoring people on pk server

    really is it necessary you guys fight in public ? ;( what good does that do? does it solve or help the situation? ask yourselves that ;( and as for pk server, its sad that people flame and talk in a racistic way and etc; but thats the way it is.
  17. Swearing in forum and game

    really powerwarrior i suggest you talk it over privately, there really is no need to make things more difficult by fighting in public. The balloon will blow up if everyone keeps adding air to it ;(
  18. Swearing in forum and game

    well I would like everyone to stop blowing the matter up; the balloon will blow up in someone's face in the end. lets be wise and end the matter here; - it is starting to become a personal fight the way I see it ;( how about we dont use swearing words unless strictly 'necessary', or unable to express otherwise; and keep our critics constructive; that is not breaking someone down, but saying it gentle and respectful, and also mentioning what is good
  19. Swearing in forum and game

    I must disagree with you; thats 'black-and-white' thinking ;/ i find it but normal when you talk to someone you take the other person's feelings into account. the way you put it Korrode, it almost sounds as if a person can actually control its feelings (which is only partially true) (- some people just dont have the ability to 'not care'-) unlike some there are people who care about how others treat them - and even when people are to blame for their own feelings (as in some cases we are to blame for how we feel);ask yourself if that is a good reason to allow swearing (again i must stress the fact that doing so is not very respectful) <edit> forgot to type half of what i wanted to say
  20. Swearing in forum and game

    well it doesn't matter if that person is educated or not (even uneducated persons are aware of the fact that swearing is in most situations 'not done'), it's all about people. this discussion started because one person wanted to point something out to another person (not uneducated vs educated but person vs person) in my opinion it is still the best to point such a thing out in private, because doing it in public will make the other person feel bad and/or uneasy. swearing and bad words do express things -i am not against them- but should not be used too lightly. if you find a person does, adress that person in private first, you will have much more results from it, and your message will not come across so agressive. -its a matter of respect also - thats how i feel about it. It always takes two to fight.
  21. Signatures for sale - cheap and home design

    we shall at your service <edit ; well the copyright image thing - I just dont like the idea of making money on someone else's work by recycling it>
  22. Signatures for sale - cheap and home design

    ok theres some probs dibclarck (yikes ) as (like i said) I hardly doubt it I can make your muscled character myself (as i sadly lack of drawing skills and refuse to steal images from others) - that is unless you can find a copyright-free clipart or something / if not im afraid i cant do that sorry other thing is forum signatures cant be over 640 pixels length (forum rules) and I do not place creator signature; like you can see in the examples; its nice if you advertise for me but certainly not necessary) - i choose to respond in plain public so everyone knows im no good at unabstract images so they know its hard to order that all the other stuff you mentioned, should be possible greetings, melisande <edit> typos :/
  23. NEW CEL Site Launch

    as discussed in 'bots' some of the commands are not listed on gossip-the bot yet they still exist; so i personally think its a nice idea to make a page for gossip commands, with all of them in it, on the CEL website - just my opinion
  24. Swearing in forum and game

    I must agree that some situations call for 'bad words'; and that those words are spoken faster than you like sometimes; But it would be nicer if we try to minimize the use of those words; as they are signs of disrespect. (and in the end thats what this is about i think) life can be so much easier if you take critics more lightly and not as a personal attack; i am convinced this also lightens up the discussion around criticism. another thing that couldve avoided this situation, people Will feel personally attacked if you criticise them in public, if you think someone goes to far, why not try to pm him/her about it? -just my opinion
  25. story from the LoL guildians

    well its not bad only watch out with tenses; sometimes I think a past tense would fit better (I walk outside of my house => I walked) and magnificently melancholy => magnificently melancholic i think I think writing/reading often is the key to get better at it, and nobody's perfect
