    Sweeping world events in TMP must be cleared!

    Guys, please remember this is the Rules and Rulings section and not the General Chat section. Questions about storylines in TMP are relevant to the thread.

    Problems with Magi

    Which doesn't mean they aren't capable of telling each other when they screwed up. ;) One thing that should be noted is if you have a description problem for a room, you should LEAVE THE ROOM until it's fixed. Staying "while you're fixing it" means you are not only in violation of the setting...

    Allowed races

    A link, certainly. If you want to post the image itself, make sure it's not too big and doesn't break people's browsers.

    Allowed races

    You can check the setting restriction details on the links at the top of the ISRP forum pages (under "Settings" ;-)) to see for yourself if the things that make them only "nearly human" count or not. If you're still uncertain about whether or not it would fit in the Oerth or Faerun rooms...

    E. Gary Gygax Dead at Age 69

    Sounds like the guy never met a competant D&D GM in his life. I've been in D&D games where we had loads of fun, and barely looked at our char sheets or rolled a die. And if you killed a bunch of hobgoblins in their camp, it was because they were attacking travelers and you'd been hired to do...

    List of "official" Adepts

    Seems fair. Done. :-)

    Having a character who's an obnoxious pushy guy who insults everyone IC is fine! As long as it's kept IC, kept equal-opportunity (don't seem to target specific chars or players), and the insults are kept clean (which is where "rape result" becomes questionable). And as long as you don't get...

    Hmmm... Okay, if that had been reported, Bari, you probably would have gotten a warning. It doesn't quite fall into the Code of Conduct's prohibition on depicting rape or describing a rape, but the subject is a very VERY sensitive one for many people. Generally people should be very careful...

    godlings

    I agree that anything that happens on site, in-char, in another char's presence, is fair game for that char to know and act on. Even the "but my char was whispering and your char was busy talking to someone else all the way across the room" doesn't really cut it. You can consider it bad RPing...

    godlings

    There are several things that might be going on here. If the other player is using OOC knowledge through his char, that's very unfriendly of the player. This includes using knowledge gained from one char and acting as if another char knows it, unless there are IC reasons they might have told...

    Upcoming Attraction for The Cage

    As per usual, RL is making it difficult to get this up and running. But I did get a chance to make up this: Open for comments. :-)

    Upcoming Attraction for The Cage

    Sure! They aren't attached to the floor of the boxing ring. But please put the pieces back in the ring afterwards. :-) The Cage has been described as a warren of connected rooms. That's in IC terms; in OOC terms it stays as one chat room so we don't have to monitor a bunch of different room...

    Upcoming Attraction for The Cage

    Bingo! So make the blue one win this time? :-) It's a toy, for fun, because RPing is a game and meant to be fun. Sometimes people can find all they need on their own. Sometimes something in the setting can help add that fun. In char, you can treat this as the silliness it is, or you can treat...

    Upcoming Attraction for The Cage

    For your role-playing enjoyment, for an added enticement to get people off Oerth, or for whatever sinister reason you want to ascribe to the Magi, there will be a new descriptive feature added to The Cage combat/RP room sometime next week. This is not a new room, just an IC addition to the...

    this is a bit on harassment.. yes another complain.. but please read

    Please note that as a matter of courtesy to our patrons, so that they don't have it thrown in their faces by other players, the Magi don't normally publicize whether or not someone has been given official warnings or bans, or the reasons behind it, except in the case of boards posting where it's...

    Hellos!

    Because she has been in a few times so we thought you'd have known? And the current Magi trainees aren't out of training and we're not sure when they will be (everyone has busy lives) so we couldn't promise a date for when you'd see those. *waves to Beatrix :-) *

    Very nice.

    You're welcome! I try to be responsive. If they all leave, you mean? Then I'd enjoy many more hours a week of free time. If they stay and complain? Then we're back to the "please make concrete suggestions." No, it's not. It never will be. There will always be room for improvement. But it's...

    Very nice.

    Appealing to whom? We made changes from the WotC version based on user feedback. Some people loved it, some people made do, and some people hated it and left. We've made other changes here, such as adding the Cage. But whatever we do, some people will love it, some people will merely...

    Very nice.

    It's the baseball analogy. Three strikes and you're out. Unless the offense is extremely serious or shows total lack of control, we do not ban on a first offense. We give people the warning to make sure they know they did go over the line. And leave it up to them to decide if they want to...

    Chew on this.

    I'll only address a few of these. Some of the points are very good, but since there are others chiming in agreement, I'll deal with more specifics. About harassment: We did, and always will, ask that examples be given. You don't have to copy the posts yourself (and we would have to take into...
