Obviously we can't make people sit in a room to wait for an emote, but it could be nice to have a command -- similar to the AFK command -- that just pops a little tag out roomwide as a courtesy. Typing: [OOC: Name is typing.] Reading: [OOC: Name is reading to catch up.] You don't have to use them bu...

I think another issue with the Duelists is that they are flashy , or are at least generally designed to be quite flashy, and thematically, all Templars are not flashy so having a flashy fighting style would probably not suit a guild that is willing to literally put their physical body between the in...

Several Immortals are considered splinters of Toteoh, including some that aren't even listed on the wiki (shout out to Qetzicotl), but several are still unknown as how they interact with Huecatn culture and I am curious. Obviously we have Toteoh. It's not mentioned what Toteoh looked like, but we ob...

I'd say it probably belongs in Player-Organized Events, just because this is a PC-created thing and so far the NPCs I've seen involved haven't sanctioned or wanted it to occur. I can't say I blame you; it is easier to take the "easy way" out and just burn down a forest (which can happen, r...

Seeking those interested in taking Emleth back. Will be at refugee camp eight bells after sun falls, nightly. Come sit and speak. -- *a crude boar pictograph* Curiously, this notice was not left in Shadgard. Less curiously, it was also not left in the Corvus Outpost, forcing citizens from those plac...

Some people have been hearing about that redheaded Udemi who talks to her horse asking people about the mercenaries; the pieces of small story claim she's been looking for a way to reclaim Emleth from the infested, for the refugees who were displaced.

Always thought it was van-ya ! ^_^ Lovely name. Although I had a bit of fun wondering whether it was Vanja with the "j" sound similar to how Argentinians (I think?) sometimes pronounce "ll". That's about right, actually. The van-ya part. It's from a Russian(ish) men's name Vanya...

No, you're a towel. The boar was very much a towel. A big, ugly towel. I'd make an effort to RP with your character more if my character didn't utterly hate yours for being so darned rude from only a pair of interactions. Yes, well. See the tail end of my comment about Ben and why Ben is cooler tha...

I have... The biggest collection of heart-shaped gold stars for this entire thing. Me and my friend who plays have been quietly gushing over the entire thing, because we play PCs in guilds that involve a bit of "boxed-in skillgain" and we're so excited to be able to give them abilities tha...

I've been here for a period of time by this point and have yet to really express how pleased I am with the RP that I've managed to get, be it unpleasant or pleasant. Some of my most enjoyed moments include those who were present for Vanja finding her callsign (and subsequently arguing with it in a v...

Some of the character names we have are a bit out there with pronunciation, so I figured why not have a thread where people can elaborate how their PC says their name (or the correct way). For instance, people were making jokes about the fact that Vanja says "Ja." when she's agreeing and s...

I sit corrected. :) I guess I'm in the minority that likes to just RP and actually doesn't usually enjoy chat. I'm in that minority with you, if it's any consolation. That's not to say that I hate OOC means of communication, I don't, I actively talk to people I play with (in other MUDs) on Skype an...

Chat is really nice to have. Clok ain't 100 percent RP all the time, thankfully, the grind is part of the process as well :D Clok is certainly light on RP sometimes, but I would never say that Clok ever has moments where it's acceptable to not be RPing. It's RP-enforced. It's not RP-accepted, RP-en...

I have no personal opinion for either Vitello or Elystole. With that in mind, I would like to say something regarding the general subject matter, which seems to be the supposed Kill On Sight mentality of a PC in the game and how that impacts other players and their characters. First, these sorts of ...

The minimum age I have in mind for any player characters in CLOK is going to be somewhere around late teens, anyway. From this thread . I mean, there aren't hard-coded rules yet, but just something to keep in mind. That said: it's nice to see how much thought people have put into this! With so many...

It's definitely been nice to interact with everyone in a big plot-thing; the last time there was one, my PC was dead for most of it! Even when it ended up at the tense part, it's interesting to see the different opinions of people. Y'all are spectacular.

P.S. If I had a character inclined to claim/protect a swathe of woodland, I would totally choose the Dead Woods. So much more driven and exciting when the area is contested and dangerous! I would probably pick one of the dangerous forests, I used that as an example more of... Common MUD-player mind...

I do the same thing as Rias; I rarely look, I just use what comes to my mind.

For instance, during the fun today:
$speech - elaborate

Having played a game where you could claim a patch of natural world as yours if you were a druid, I have to say that I don't believe that sort of relationship works for what Clok is all about -- druidry in Clok isn't about controlling nature, if it was, the Gaea wouldn't be able to tell you that you...

When you use count <item>, it shows all of the corresponding items with that string as a keyword in the containers you're wearing. It doesn't, however, show you a gat danged thing in your handcart/wagon -- so I propose: count <item> in <container> This would function thusly: count branch in wagon or...

I only end up noticing these as I go along, trying to use them and realizing they don't work (which is usually when my PCs have blank says): TONE pleasant(ly), considerate(ly), indifferent(ly), apathetic(ly), ambivalent(ly), comprehending(ly), cagey (cagily), evasive(ly), ponderous(ly), reticent(ly)...

http://i61.tinypic.com/264qe4j.jpg Vanja looks something like that. Your quintessential freckled redhead. She's freckled out the wazoo, with really... Really red hair... As an afterthought, that chick is also a bit too chubby; my PC is really, really lean. She's like a glorious, freckled, redheaded...
