  1. I am not saying that you are telling the truth or lying but its very hard to make a decision based on the lack of evidence you present here.

     

    Do you possibly have chat logs or screen shots to back your accusations?

  2. BT, I had't seen nor heard of you in a long time, and it saddens me to finally hear from you under these sad times. I'm not good at expressing myself by talking, so I wrote a poem for you and Katryel.

     

    Heartbeats like a thundering storm,

    just the thought of you to keep me warm.

    Ever since you;ve been gone i've been lonely and down,

    The only emotion on my face has been a frown.

    In this broken world, the only thing that was right,

    was having you by my side every day and night.

    When we were together, I never thought i'd be left,

    with this lonely heart, empty and bereft.

     

    I wrote this poem a few nights past when I couldn't sleep. This is the best use of it that is possible. Again, my deepest condolences.


  3. This is the game that has diverted my attention from Eternal Lands. Anyone else play it? I'm on the American version, venus server, go by the name of Karendar. I'm a lvl 43 Force Archer, for those that have played Everquest or any mmorpg really it's a mix of ranger/archer and cleric. For a free game, the graphics are stunning. Also has a nice soundtrack. (Unless I am mistaken, they have their own band that produces the music). Any problems of being kos'ed are easily solved as you can pk the perpetrator (for a price). I'll include some screenshot's later.

  4. Ah well while we're on the topic, today's description is wrong too.

    Our scientist's have noticed a solar activity increase, so the UV rays and the solar wind are going to cause damage to all living beings (Isla Prima not affected).

    Monsters (raccons, ferans, such) would be classified as living beings, no? They don't take damage.


  5. I debated for awhile whether or not to actually dignify this with a response. Whether or not the topic is the name or the description, it is still words, no? You cannot tell someone not to use words to respond when you are arguing the point of words in something. The problem with your logic, is that most people assume if it does not say something (i.e it does not say mines will not work, or something that explodes from 1 foot away will not hurt you) then there is a possibility, and to ask or be more cautious. They do not go: "Gee, peace day, I'm sure this thing right here that explodes and hurts people will not work at all cause I don't want it to." So your saying because it's a game, you can have no common sense? Wtf? How can you actively attack another player with mines, if they are not close enough to be hit by the mine?

     

    You are specifically using word games and semantics to avoid the actual topic of this thread. This thread is not, as I have repeatedly stated, about people getting hurt by mines they walk on to when no one else is around. I didn't tell you not to use words. I told you not to use games to avoid the issue. The issue is active PK on Peace Day when the description clearly and specifically states that you cannot be attacked by other players. The description doesn't say that other players cannot cast spells on you, cannot attack you with melee weapons, and cannot use arrows to attack you, let alone say that mines also cannot be used. The description states that players cannot attack you period. There are not codices or long winded descriptions of how other players cannot attack you. It just says that they can't. That is the reason this thread was started and you have steadfastly refused to answer to that specific point.

     

    You obviously don't know how players can use mines to attack other players. The strategy is to teleport next to someone or walk up to them invisible or even visible if they don't know what can happen to them. When you get next to another player you intentionally drop and set off your own mines. This causes you to suffer ground zero damage but you are already prepared for it and so you heal as you drop and set off your mines. The other player not expecting to be attacked gets nuked by the blast damage. That is how you PK someone on Peace Day. That is what this topic is about.

    Do you read my post at all, or do you just want to fill this thread with more and more drivel that has been proved wrong, etc over and over again?

    I obviously do know how to attack players with mines, as I obviously have stated, twice now, and you obviously have failed to read both posts, or failed the comprehend what was said in the aforementioned posts.

    How can you actively attack another player with mines, if they are not close enough to be hit by the mine?

    Now read this again, and tell me, how, if the player is not near you, you can attack him with a mine? Simply said, you cant, he will not be hit by the blast radius and you damage youtself.

    This topic, as I said in another post, is about changing peace day so that it does not work in one map, because a few people don't like it. It has absolutely nothing to do with PK'ing on Peace Day. Obviously you don't know what the topic of this thread is about.


  6. PS. This thread was not started about or by Moebird. This thread was started because players can actively PK other players on Peace Day which is something the description of the day says cannot happen. What difference does it make to the topic if Moebird is any less wrong or right than the players who are actively PKing other players during Peace Day? The description of Peace Day does not mention bots or ants anywhere in it. The whole matter as to whether people should be able to level their ants on Peace Day or not belongs in another thread.

    Actually, this thread was started to suggest leaving one map open from peace day because the thread starter did not like peace day.


  7. Word games? Is not the issue you are arguing the supposedly inccorect name of a special day? A name, which is, infact made up of words? You, sir, are trying to use semantics to prove yourself right, and then tell me to stop using semantics myself. If you cannot use a little common sense in the fact that mines explode (oh gee, look a bomb, let's stand right beside it), then don't blame the developers/whoever names the day, blame yourself for standing beside the mine.

     

    pr0 double post btw -edit- actually, 2 double post in same thread. GG

    Now that is truly playing word games. The topic is about an incorrect fact in the description of a special day and not the name of it. The topic is about incorrect information and has nothing to do with word play at all. The problem with your logic is that most people trust what the read in the information provided to them by the game developer. "Common sense" in a game with satellites and spells. Hello??? The point is not even about standing next to a mine and getting hurt either. The topic is that players can approach another player and then actively attack them with mines. Walking on to mines that you don't see has nothing at all to do with this topic.

  8. I believe it is accurate...

     

    Description: No fighting today, you can't attack players, animals or monsters, and the animals or monsters won't attack you either.

     

    It makes no mention of inanimate objects.

     

     

    You seem to be missing the point that players can actively set off their own mines and heal themselves while killing people with the blast damage from the mines. Yes players can actively attack with mines exactly as Moebird's post described. Just because the players take damage from their own mines and have to heal does not mean that the damage they are intentionally doing to others with their mines is not 'actively' attacking them. Spells don't work to hurt other players on Peace Day because that would be an active attack, right? So why isn't setting off your own mines to kill people not actively attacking them? It is just like using a spell except you have to heal some damage to yourself because of 'casting' it.

    Where does it say you cannot attack yourself?

     

    It doesn't. If it did then you could freely use mushrooms for no cooldown food since you wouldn't be able to poison yourself either. The point is that you are trying to use semantics to support a loophole that does in fact allow people to violate the description of peace day. Just because you have to attack yourself to kill someone else does not mean you are not attacking someone else. If it did then you wouldn't be killing them would you? Please stop playing word games so we can take care of this issue.

  10. No one said this will be done each Peace Day.It was a protest, a one-time statement.I recall a protest by a feminin movement in the 60ies, when Bra's were burned. Dont you think those women knew bra's would be made again and again? That too, was to set a statement for everyone..same as I did with the disarming of the landmines ^^

    Interesting tactic...

    Yes, for those smart enough it is!

     

    Jez

    Look how much good your precedent did...almost every woman wears a bra nowadays..(there are some exceptions, I admit).

    What's the point of a protest if you know beforehand it will accomplish nothing?

     

     

    You still dont get it, do you?

    It wasnt about bra's, or about mines!

    Its about standing up for your rights, and about the essence of Peace!

     

    Don't you think I don't know you cannot realy disarm mines here with water essences, how stupid do you think I am?

    This is a role playing game, shocking, to hear me say that, right?

    But yes, I can roleplay too, as you have seen!

     

    Jez

    So in other words, it was nothing more than a childish tantrum because something in the game did not go your way?

     

    Edit- I'm missing the part where anyone said anything about mines being disarmed with water essences, or anyone saying it's not a role-playing game.


  11. Why dont' we create a separate Forums for people feeling like whining and complaining about Peace Day?

    It would take up too much bandwidth...there'd be more threads there than posts about people's ficuses here.

  13. If the player is online and on his buddy list Ctrl-B will bring up the buddy list window.

     

    "Oh look, he is marked as red for me"

    Splat.

    But if the poor archer's dog has eaten the corners of his keyboard with the control keys? Should the game punish people for having a dog that doesn't even play the game? :medieval:

     

     

    He makes a good argument.

  14. To join contact swordofflame and if hes not on pm sirRich And if neither is on post a messge here or try pming gossip with

    Also, learn to use an apostrophe.


  15. After reading it all, i can only come to one conclusion; the title of the day isnt correct.

    Perhaps maybe it's just your perception of the name that is incorrect, not the name itself.

     

    -Edit- Sorry I didn't feel like reading the whole thread, so if I just repeated what's been said a few times, I apologize.


  16. Edit-- I just tried, I also can log in on test but still not main.

     

    Your problem is that you cant connect to port 2000, i guess.

     

    Blame your ISP or your local network for banning port 2000, thats my guess.

     

    Piper

    Well, I can log in on server 2000, and chat, but when I click mouse to move, or scroll in, it crashes.


  17. Well, since a week or so ago, EL was working fine, then crashed suddenly. Now every time I try to log in, my screen freezes, and EL will crash and a blue screen pops up saying there was an ati2dvag error. The weird thing is, I can log in on the pk server just fine, but whenever I try to log in on the main server, it doesn't work. Any ideas?
