[QUOTE="Infernal Scribe, post: 4242277, member: 52521"] there's a few problems of adding a time clock. One example would be using US Pacific Time or whatever zones is that you have to look them up and assume that all people are lazy as default. Because we all know someone or another who doesn't even read the boards, they just merely come on for the chat and skip the rest, so i doubt they're willing to go the extra mile to another site and check the time for the room they planning to rp in. Less complication, less stress. it be nice to have a time clock, but you would essentially would have to have a time clock for each room setting which sounds more like work then needed. Another thing is, Point of View and setting. PoV: When Char #1 enters the tavern, its high noon. While Char #2 enters the tavern, its midnight. This will always be a pit fall. This can easily be explained via rp that the region around the tavern/rotunda follows different rules, due to the influx of the portals or the moon magic from the adepts or due to everyone being too intoxicated to notice the difference. My advice is to don't worry about it and toss it up as one more odd trait, like bootezu. As for the Modern Setting, since its based as a night club, assume that the time is always night time. with no real sun to harm them (religious, symbolic, or quasi-elemental portal to the plane of radiance), i doubt the vampires need to worry about hanging out in day light hours in Sigil. As for afflicted lycanthropes, no moon means they're pretty much safe unless they're the cursed variety that gets "changed' by a different trigger method which should fit in your storyline. As for normal default vampires. Unfortunately, there are so many different editions of the game and other games/novels/manga/film out there that has different abilities for vampires, what is considered as normal in some PoV is not normal to other PoV. As there is no such thing as a default elf or dwarf, due to skills, talents, abilities and know how. It may be old, but everyone is different. If you want a vampire to act how a vampire should act, then create a character and role play one, and the rest is sure to follow by your example or inspiration to create likewise. [/QUOTE]
