  1. Bloody Desire

    We look forward to meeting any new applicants and making many more friends in the EL community! If you have any questions and Bernie or Scorp aren't online feel free to PM me! I am usually on late at night when they are not (slackers j/k, love ya guys!) Also feel free to browse our bot recently added to the guild, I'm sure you'll find our prices very fair and generally cheaper than most bots. Her name is Desirable, PM to see her inventory
  2. Removal Stones - where did you find one?

    Found my first removal stone (coord) harvesting silver, in the Trassian mine
  3. Poisoned Arrows

    Do any Mods have an opinion on this suggestion?
  4. Poisoned Arrows

    The formula could be very simple. For example, something like: 50 Arrow/Bold head 1 Enriched death essence 50 hawk feather 50 yew Just like the other arrows, the formula would make 75 arrows at a time
  5. Poisoned Arrows

    I don't think there's a need to add more complicated stuff to the game. Those other arrows are neat, but as I said all the basic code exists already to make poison arrows possible without modifying much. Ranging is expensive enough and seems to be quite unpopular still. I think this would help out people wanting to range more and ultimately push the ranging skill forward
  6.

    I am Big_Duo, 5k Chrysanthemums please
  8. Spending PP for alch and harvest

    I mostly alch and harvest. I have always wondered the best way to spend PP if specializing in alch. The nexus' for harvest are obvious, but what are the best attributes to purchase when this is the main thing you do? I'm not asking for the specific mathematics of the different attribute combos, but more am curious about how other people who specialize in this like to spend their PP's. Any suggestions are welcome!
  9. Until we meet again my beloved Katryel

    Even though I have been playing for a couple years, I don't believe I met either of you ever. I am very sorry for your loss. I am however happy to see so many people in our EL community come together and offer their support to you and others before who have had to endure such loss. May your wife rest in peace A quote from my favorite poet, John Keats: A thing of beauty is a joy for ever: Its loveliness increases; it will never Pass into nothingness; but still will keep A bower quiet for us, and a sleep Full of sweet dreams, and health, and quiet breathing.
  10. Yes it has finally happened! I decided to create a guild of my own and see how it goes. Recruiting will be quite limited at first however. Right now I am mainly looking for more experienced players to form the higher ranks of the guild. Once that happens recruiting will still continue on a limited basis for a while so there is time to decide who is going to fit in and who won't. For the higher ranking players I am looking for right now I need at least Alch skill of 30 and three other skills over 25 not including overall. If your harvest skill is one of your other higher up skill it must be at least 30 as well. PK fighters are not encouraged to join as there will be not much PKing with us, but all are welcome to join!. (a little protection while harvesting in dangerous areas never hurts Training on A/D and Pvping is allowed of course but keep in mind the main objective of the guild is to work together and make good money through guild projects and advancing skills. I have no details on what kind of projects as of yet, but I do have some good ideas going so far. Participation in guild projects is by no means required however. We just ask that you are as helpful to your fellow guildmates as possible! If you are interested in becoming a ranking member of this guild please post a reply here or contact Big_Duo or Bernie ingame! If you are interested in joining as just a regular member the requirements are to have at least 3 skills over 20, alch is prefered to be included in that! Regular members may PM me and post here as well and I will consider the application. Oh, one last thing. I have enacted a STRICT 18+ age policy in this guild. NO EXCEPTIONS All applicants will be put through a screening process both by searching the fourms and asking around some of my friends ingame before final decisions are made. Don't worry though, I'm not strict. I just have no tolerance for BJrs, known scammers and all other outlaw activity About me: I wanted to include this in the post to insure people I'm not just some n00b who is finally able to make a guild and did so just for the hell of it. I have been playing EL for a little over 2 years now and it's safe to say I know my way around I have made many friends in the game who I hope will be willing to toss in a good word for me in this post!
  11. Update, April 27! The guild forum has been updated with new requirements for joining. I'm am also planning a sort of "incentive" program for newer members of the game to participate in once joining the guild. I have not implemented it fully yet, however if you have any questions or are interested in learning more feel free to post here or in the guild forum. Or just drop me a PM in-game!
  12. Big Bang and Black Holes

    .....Getting back to the scientific part of the question, here's something that may help understand the physics of a black hole: What is a Black Hole? A Black Hole is an area of space that is so condensed and the gravity pull is so strong that literally nothing can escape it. They are formed by supergiant (star clusters of large total mass may be merged into single bodies by their members' gravitational attraction. This will usually produce a supergiant or hypergiant star which runs short of "fuel" in a few million years and then undergoes gravitational collapse, produces a supernova or hypernova and spends the rest of its existence as a black hole) stars collapsing on themselves. How big is a Black Hole? A Black Hole's gravitational pull is so strong that it's mass is literally endless. In terms of how much space it takes up, it is directly related to how much it's mass is. A typical 10 solar mass black hole would have a radius of 30 kilometers and a million solar mass black hole would have a radius of 3 million kilometers. Escape Velocity Escape Velocity is the force (speed) needed to escape a gravitational pull of an object, such as a planet. The reason nothing can escape a black holes pull is because it is so small (relatively) and dense that not even light can escape, hence the name "Black Hole". Think about this for a second, not even light can escape it. Once you get to the point where light can't escape, you have reached the event horizon, and are doomed to a quick, but possibly painful death. Time Space Continuum The gravity of a Black Hole is so massive that it distorts time and space itself. Imagine this, when an object crosses the event horizon, its image is frozen there, possibly forever. While the object itself has long since been crushed by the gravity of the singularity (As an in falling object approaches the singularity, tidal forces acting on it approach infinity. All components of the object, including atoms and subatomic particles, are torn away from each other before striking the singularity. At the singularity itself, effects are unknown; it is believed that a theory of quantum gravity is needed to accurately describe events near it), the image is frozen because the light rays it omitted have hit a spot in the gravitational pull before the event horizon where the escape velocity is equal to the speed of light, making the light ray stand still. This is where a theory of time travel or time distortion comes in. If we found a way to travel faster than the speed of light, in theory we could hit the event horizon where time is distorted, then power our way out, to find that everything else has aged faster than we have. What happens in a Black Hole? It is said that once you hit the event horizon, it takes approximately 7 seconds for you to reach the center of the black hole. 3 million kilometer black hole in 7 seconds, think about that one. It also pulls you in so fast that since one part of your body is closer to the center (meaning more gravity) than another part, it would literally rip you in half. In short, you will die. Unfortunately there are so many "theorys" about what a black hole really is, especially at the center (the singularity), that it is impossible to say for sure how they really behave. Modern science is able to determine what happens before entering the event horizon, but anywhere after that is mostly speculation and derivatives from mathematical equations. No equation presently is able to determine what exactly happens at the very center of a black hole because the nature of a singularity causes mathematical equations attempting to extrapolate them to break down and become senseless. Until the so-called unification theory is found (the theory linking gravitational physics and quantum physics, which individually are correct and proven, but when combined do not "add up" so to speak) there is no way to understand what really happens.
  13. Xfire and EL

    I've got it installed ok, seems to be working fine! Slows down my EL client just a little bit, but nothing too bad. Now I just need some people on my buddy list to actually talk to, lol

    Thanks! It looks great
  23. Drakoon's Graphic Service

    Starting this for you now, I don't do sets for less than 5k, btw.. Sorry if it's too much, I can do one for you. And I'll use the image you said, should be able to do something nice from there. Sig: What you think? looks great. and 5k it is!
  24. Drakoon's Graphic Service

    I'd like to see if you could make a set for me. I'll start my offer at 3kgc and go from there depending! I'm open to pretty much anything, but use the following link for inspiration http://www.paradigm-city.com/robots/bigduo.php
