Back burnt to the bone. Smoke curls up from what's left of you.
It seems you have died, my friend. Although you cannot do anything, you are keenly aware of what is going on around you...
You realize that you have no outstanding favors which Lorminstra owes you, and without having accomplished a deed for Her, your soul is in danger of vanishing from the land forever!
...departing in 10 mins...

Speaking in broken common, you ask, "What was that for?"
Speaking in broken common, you say, "I did not even know i had enemies..."

Speaking in broken common, you say, "I don't even know him."

I did not realize terms such as -highly trained- and -8th trained- were ooc. I see people using them all the time.
haha! You die, you get rezzed. You exact vengence.
Just because you see them used doesn't make them not OOC. Highly trained is ok, 8th trained is not.
I have 77,000 more pages to read before I can see the trainer?!
That aside. I'd just avoid seagrave. Most of the times I see him, generally in the park, it seems like his goal is really just to kill people that he can.

Saying somebody is highly trained is already placing a value on the number of trainings.
Since when has saying -I have seen the trainer 8 times- been considered OOC? Saying 8th trained is the same thing.
Trainings levels do exist in-game, and people have made up IC terms to describe them. hence -ive seen the trainer 8 times- there's nothing wrong with that.
Please, give me a break.

I think we've lost focus here. Why your picking on the original poster is beyond me. Making assumptions about who she really is and so forth. Yeah she said 8th trained...I'm sure if someone stepped out of the shadows and just shot me down, I'd be apt to be a little thrown off myself.
How about the stellar role playing of Seagrave of just outright killing someone because he can. He could have interacted with her before the physical confrontation. But, from what I've seen in game, he usually comes off as a huge idiot, and I just stear clear. I would take Kainen's advice a few posts up.

He shouldn't have killed her in the first place unless she did something to warrent it.. period. Speaking of trains is VERY common place.. at least I see it all the time. Doesn't matter WHO you are.. no one has the right to do that, just come out and kill you for no reason. And as for killing her a second time for talking that way.. that's just plain bullshit. This seems to be a growing problem.. people doing stuff or killing other people because they can. This game is supposed to be fun, and if killing other players is your fun, fine.. but you dont have the right to take away another person's good time because of your own.

Seagrave is a wizard, not a sorcerer and as for highly trained....... Well he's definitly higher trained than you, but the fact he killed you for no reason and seems to enjoy going around town casting meteor swarm makes me think that he really has changed a lot since he and Eider were young.
Don't know why he's turned into such a wanker recently. But I do think you should assist and tell someone about it.

Reason number 4,001 that I am not playing this game anymore.. because of people like the two above.. Level 8, could mean this is a fairly new player and should be given a "somewhat" break... but of course, you people (see above again), don't remember what it's like to be that train, right???
Back on topic... Seagrave should be warned, reported and have his face stomped.. not necessarily in that order :)

For Seagrave, that whole interaction was really dumb. If your going to roleplay an evil character with racial-hate quirks, ROLEPLAY THEM. Otherwise your interaction with anyone becomes you ruining they're enjoyment of the game. Nobody will remember anything except you being a prick.
On the opposite side, Prisma pulling out the OMG U ARE HIGH LVLS U PICK ON ME card wasnt very good roleplay either.
When at all possible, while playing my nondesirables, I try to ignore mechanics and interact an entire conflict. If I can successfully make an enemy/friend while using more ACT commands than mechanics I feel like a winner.
Parkbandit
12-09-2004, 01:32 PM
If that log is accurate, then Seagrave is a jackass that should simply be banned from the game, no questions asked. You can play a racially superior character without just walking in and killing.
Sithral hated all elves, but didn't just go around killing people because they were elves (unless they simply asked for him to kill them, then he was more than happy to oblige)
And I'll also agree that the use of "I'm only level 8" sucked major league ass in that conflict as well. "I'm new around these parts" or "I've just started training in combat" or "You are far superior to me in combat" or "I'm inexperienced in the art of war" or a hundred other things would have been more appropriate in a roleplaying environment.

Oh my god... i NEVER said that! I know saying levels is ooc! I said i was 8 trainings, and such talk is what i see in everyday language!
Seagrave is a cool guy and his recent actions make me think he sold his character.
Eiderfleur
12-09-2004, 02:10 PM
Thing is.... from the last time I spoke to him on psinet I don't think he was sold (though this was some time ago) but I can find out I suppose. No idea why he's been meteor swarming towns and throwing his weight around recently. I really don't think he was sold.
Alarke
12-09-2004, 02:20 PM
I don't think he was sold either. He used to be a decent guy and offer me spells and stuff when he was around. I hadn't seen him in a long time, but id heard of his actions with the meteoring and killing randomly, and the other day when i fogged out of the rift he was in pine far and greeted Alarke and offered spells as always. So that leads me to believe the person is the same.
I don't know, it between killing people and meteor swarming (which I've never seen in-game) he's always spelling up my character, spelling up other people, casting mass spells, etc. So it's not like he's an ass to everyone. On the other hand (if this was the entire log) he shouldn't have killed her, but, her player makes me feel less than sorry. He's only had her in town for a day and is already highly annoying, just like his previous incarnations.
I don't think it's any coincedence that as soon as he made her he took the first chance he could to run to the PC and whine about something, not even noticing his OOC in his own log.
StrayRogue
12-09-2004, 03:52 PM

Caramia
12-09-2004, 06:14 PM
Just REPORT him if he tries it again, don't go looking for someone older to kill him, it won't help things in the end, it'll only increase your problems. Twits like Seagrave don't learn from being attacked or killed, instead, they thrive on the attention. Just because someone might speak OOC doesn't = consent for conflict.

Drew, please stop calling me a he, for one. I am female, and my pic is even in the photo Gallery, and if you don't believe that's me, I'll even take another pic and hold a sign up for you.
Also, yes, that was the entire log--the only words exchanged between Seagrave and I.
And thirdly, please tell me what I have done that's -highly- annoying? Yes, I said i was eight trainings, but that's everyday speak and not ooc. People say they have been to the trainer -eight- times, and stuff like that. It's an in-char way of telling your levels.
Also, that was said -after- he killed me for no reason. I really did nothing more but walk in the square.
And fourtn, again, please stop calling me he, and saying 'his other incarnations' I'm not those other people you speak of.
Later for now...

I agree it sucks that someone just killed you with no interaction, and for that ..... it sucks :(
I'm just personally tired of seeing "45553 pages to go" "I've seen the trainer=levels 23 times" and of course "1232 EXP TO LEVEL"
By 8 trains, its not you that upsets me, but that no one is teaching new players better. A lot of my friends do these too, but there is only so much I can say before sounding like an ass. Which I do anyway.

I apologize, I did not know saying -eight trainings- was considered OOC, now, as I see it in everyday speech. I'll reconsider using such a term in the future.
Yea also, even if what i said was ooc, it was done after he killed me for no reason :(.
FYI, I really do RP my char, and anybody who knows me can vouch for me. I'm very well aware that gemstone is a RP-enforced enviornment, I just did not know using 'trainings' was considered ooc.

At least pick on someone your own level. I'm sure it wouldn't have been too hard for him to find someone to duel.

That's the kind of crap I was talking about. Just because you are bored does not mean you should be allowed to make things unpleasant for others. That's the sort of thing I hope the GM's will take care of.. quickly. When I am bored, I take my sorcerer out and torment critters (it's pretty damned funny to blow the limbs off a critter and beat it to death with it's own arm or leg) There are so many things to do in GS without resorting to the stupid crap Seagrave has been doing.

Personally I think this is a much better example of how to show you dont like someone...
[Raging Thrak Inn, Party Room]
This room is festive and cheery compared to the rest of the Thrak. Decorations of foil and brightly colored parchment adorn the walls, and streamers hang from the large wrought iron chandelier. Tables and trays laden with good victuals, fine drinks and novel items fill the room. The clamour of rambunctious, good-spirited adventurers echoes through the chamber. You also see a doorway and a simple wooden wastebasket.
Also here: Khalerin, Great Lord Licel, Querthose
Obvious exits: none
Licel just opened a dark components pouch.
Licel glances at you.
Licel says, "Bah."
You glance at Licel.
Querthose frowns.
Querthose hesitantly says, "This quickly becomes a party."
Speaking in broken common, you ask, "Yes?"
Querthose glances at you.
Speaking in broken common, you say, "Well.. this IS the Party Room."
Khalerin says, "Thats why its called the partyroom."
Licel angrily says, "Leave it to an insect to add to the trouble."
You laugh softly, trying to hide your amusement.
Speaking coldly to you, Querthose says, "I dislike both parties and insect slaves who should have remained on their own plane."
Licel haughtily says, "We don't have the time for this."
Licel sneers.
Speaking in broken common to Querthose, you say, "I am no slave."
Licel glances at you.
Querthose narrows his eyes.
You fold your arms over your chest.
Speaking slyly to you, Querthose says, "Anymore. And yet."
Your body relaxes as your thoughts stray from the shadows.
Speaking in broken common, you say, "Anymore is right."
Speaking wryly to you, Licel says, "Pity. Continue with that tone and you'll find yourself to be one, in all likelyhood."
Licel glances at Querthose.
Querthose smirks.
Speaking in broken common, you say, "To no one."
Speaking in broken common, you say, "Ever."
(Querthose holds out his hands and a helpless gesture)
You put an ash-hafted mithril moon axe in your black leather scabbard.
Querthose innocently says, "I suppose if they wish to remain, we should oblige."
You sling a small shield emblazoned with a golden key over your shoulder.
Querthose nods to Licel.
Querthose utters a light chant and raises his hands, beckoning the lesser spirits to his aid...
Querthose gestures at you.
Strands of webbing shoot forth towards you.
CS: +246 - TD: +30 + CvA: +19 + d100: +45 == +280

Warding failed!
Khalerin is firmly webbed in place.
Querthose amusedly says, "Do enjoy your spot."
(Querthose bows mockingly)
Speaking in broken common, you say, "I don't mind being here without you."
Querthose's group just went through a doorway.
Speaking in broken common, you say, "Silly people."
Khalerin says, "Yeah they are."
The webs dissolve from around you.
The webs dissolve from around Khalerin.
You stretch.
You sit down.
While I have heard that one of those 2 likes to actually do damage to people.. I am posting this because I think he did things the right way.. he showed his contempt for my race and made it clear that he could easily kill me if he wanted to without actually hurting me..

Well I can say that Seagrave contacted me yesterday evening on psinet and basically told me that he killed Prisma because he thought she was Solescape's other character and he hates Solescape, we spoke briefly and I told him next time to RP it a little better at least would have been better and he agreed. He did not mention being bored for being the reasoning for killing Prisma.
As for Querthose and Licel I love them both, great fun.... Also when Eider torments Licel by joining his group and snuggling with him is great fun! MUhhahahahahaha

Wow, I would love to know the reason he decided some random bardess was somebody named solescape?
I'm wondering what i did to mimic his behavior besides walk into the square and very politly ask for healing.
Either way, I'm over it already, still.. it's a very odd excuse.

Incidently, that's still not a good enough reason but it's good he listened to your advice. I've seen Seagrave roleplay before and I know he can do much better than what he displayed.

He appears to be decrepit with age and tiny. He has sparkling sea green eyes and copper skin. He has short, red hair streaked with silver. He has a weathered face, a red nose and a small goatee.
He has a spiked black steel stud in his right nostril, a silver-edged dark onyx spike in his lip, a meerschaum horse head pipe clenched between his teeth, a leering black demon tattoo on his wrist, a coiled viper tattoo on his finger, and a Wizard Guild tattoo on his neck.
He is in good shape.
He is wearing some full leather, an ebon-hued obsidian gate pin, a tall black conjurer's hat, a bulging merchant loot pack, a faceted dreamstone ring, a black widow onyx spider talisman, a snake-etched bronze necklace, a crystal amulet, a sinew-wrapped black silk sheath, a cobweb-covered jet black spidersilk cloak edged with silver silk trim, and a veniom-bound rolaren tower shield.

As I said, never met him, just gated in and started attacking without a word said. I still have NO idea why he did it. He just likes attacking people I suppose

He hasn't been sold. However, I have no idea why he's been acting like this recently..... I will attempt to find out more next time he's around or ask him to come here and defend himself at least. :shrug:

First of all i'd like to say that i was mistaken for killing Prisma. I was under the impression that she was solescape, and i now know after the fact that she isnt. This doesnt justify what i did and for that i do apologize, i should of role played it better for one.
Second Xandalf i killed you for a simple reason... you were going around illistim killing new paladains.... hardcastle and two others. I figured you need to be put in your place for doing that. However i do feel bad that you killed me first but still i accomplished what i wanted to do.
Third i'm the same seagrave of 49 trains that you all have seen and interacted with for the past year and half. I cannot explain how i've changed but the fact is that lately i've gotten tired of being picked on and/or harrassed. So i've started to fight back and for the record the attack of mine on the dais wasnt planned to kill 22 people but 4-8 and 2 of those were my targets in the first place. Honesty how am i supposed to stop a level 65+ empath and rouge from bullying me if everytime i get out of stun or bind they rebind me. I assure you this would aggravte the piss out of you, so i got upset ive paied my dues to GS4 and the 22 people ive killed over it."

Killing 22 people over what 4 were doing isnt right.. period... and for Prisma.. you cant go around killing people just because you think they one person or another. It's cool that you apologized to her for what you did though.
Heh, I was always inclined to turn Meos into a pure evil mage. I was gonna wait till I hit 100 though.

You can't roleplay better the fact that you think a person is someone else you might have a conflict with. That's considered bringing OOC stuff into the game. Your conflict is with Solescape, period. Not some character you suspect or know Solescape's player is running.
Second Xandalf i killed you for a simple reason... you were going around illistim killing new paladains.... hardcastle and two others. I figured you need to be put in your place for doing that. However i do feel bad that you killed me first but still i accomplished what i wanted to do.
Who made you the game police? Answer... no one. If you see someone doing something against policy to someone else, report them and stay out of conflicts that don't directly involve you.

Report it to the GMs, assist and get it on record, or roleplay out your conflicts with those you have issues with, directly.
...and for the record the attack of mine on the dais wasnt planned to kill 22 people but 4-8 and 2 of those were my targets in the first place.
So you killed 14-18 innocent people that did nothing to you. Nice. And that justifies what you did... how?

If they are stunning and binding you for no reason, let the GMs handle it. Each time you respond, either verbally or physically, you consent to the conflict.
But if you consent, or there is a reason for their actions, then you can either resolve it through roleplaying, or use the tools available to you (report, assist, warn, challenge), make it clear it has to stop, and bring the conflict to an end.

Yeah, I'm heartbroken over it. You know what though, at least when I convey the fact that I'm heartbroken, the message gets through because I'm not retarded.

If someone is binding you over and over again, Assist/Report them. It really is as simple as that. The one thing to remember is that you have to be consistent. Don't take matters into your own hands.

I don't care if he did apologize to Prisma, he killed her BECAUSE he thought she was someone elses second character? wtf. Going to the dais and killing all of those people because a few were picking on you? How old are you anyway, seriously if this is how you react to the game maybe you need to close your GS accounts.
You are hurting others enjoyment of the game, keep following this path and it won't be long before you get banned.

Oh my god... i NEVER said that! I know saying levels is ooc! I said i was 8 trainings, and such talk is what i see in everyday language!
First of all, 8 isn't a word. It's a number. The word you were looking for is eight.
Second of all, the entire idea of training is an OOC code issue. If the game was designed to be realistic, people wouldn't train ONLY after they've acquired "x" experience points. They would train regularly, methodically, getting actual lessons on technique and being introduced to new concepts, with the opportunity to practice via such things as "sparring.' Furthermore, people don't REALLY suddenly discover that it's "time to train" again, if you're making even the slightest attempt to roleplay. At least, you wouldn't suddenly discover this at a set moment every "x" number of experience points, since points are also an OOC convention and code.
If you were truly roleplaying your character, you would have been training every single day, or three times a week, just like when you work out at the gym, or practice the piano, or go to hockey practice. But instead, you chose to "roleplay" the OOC code convention, and that is not roleplaying. It's making up in-genre words to describe an OOC convention.
In Prisma's defense, however, GemstoneIII isn't a roleplaying game. It's a hack-n-slash where roleplaying is allowed. That's a HUGE difference.
Remember, "not using OOC terms" doesn't equate to roleplaying.
Oh and Hi from the former player of Jasminpetal by the way. I remember Persima :)
I don't think she was given the chance to roleplay in the incident. Unwarranted PvP attacks can easily bring out the worst in someone especially when the conflict is not roleplayed from the very beginning.
Holy mother of God, are we not picking apart if people say "8" or "eight" fucking Christ, STFU.

Yes I am picking it apart Arkans, and no, I won't STFU. This is the roleplaying folder, and my comment pertains to roleplaying in general. When you read a book (not a comic strip - a real actual book without pictures), and one of the characters in the books is talking to another, do you -ever- see the character say:
"Yes, that will be $894, will that be cash or credit?"
I'll betcha eight hundred and ninety-four bucks that you don't.
Like it or not, IF you want to nitpick on roleplaying in a text game in which the world is presented you like a continuing novel, then you need to go all the way. Otherwise, it would behoove YOU to STFU.
Okay, Jazuela, two points to make.. no, three points.
1. You suck at life.
2. Any number that has two digits or more, you can just put the numbers for it to be grammatically correct "nine" and "10".
3. HOLY SHIT! You're right! I see numbers when someone speaks! Fuck!
Oh yeah, if you havn't noticed.. Gemstone is "NOT" a book, not even fucking close. It plays out like a game, nothing more. Just because something is text-based, does not mean it is like a book.
So seriously, eat a big fat sweaty dick, because you are so wrong it hurts my brain. Fucking RP bitch.

A little late on the uptake, I know but...
Try saying 8 out loud. Then say eight.
Can you tell the difference?
No. Of course you cant.
Stop being silly now.
