[Ta'Vaalor, Victory Wey]
A large stone-clad building sits back from the cobbled wey, its doors and windows thrown open. The clanging sound of hammer on metal rings through the area as smiths do their part to keep the city well armed. A small bronze plaque hangs upon the doorpost. A stone walkway snakes around to the rear of the building. You also see the Victory Gate and a wooden barrel.

You obviously missed the "fun" in Ta'vaalor when Penidiamond and company felt the need to kill most of the town people there until he got a vacation. Idiots have been in Vaalor awhile.

Vaalor has sucked since they made it a starter town.

Warriorbird

Yep. They should've switched area quality... made Ta'Illistim easy stuff and a newbie town and made Ta'Vaalor the hard OTF type stuff.

Vaalor after release was one of my favorite times to play aside from old icemule. But there was alot more of a sense of community then. Now its just not there.

Ilvane

Is everyone obsessed with Teeoncy? Not all idiots are Sarah.;)


:yawn:

Enough with the Teeoncy already..boring..

I also agree that Vaalor shouldn't have been a started city. Just the history of the city alone it doesn't make sense..now Solhaven would have been a bit of a better choice.

I also agree that Vaalor shouldn't have been a started city. Just the history of the city alone it doesn't make sense..now Solhaven would have been a bit of a better choice.

Solhaven would be an awful choice, too, given how it's the preferred invasion playground of the GMs. No disagreement on Ta'Vaalor, though. If the city was done up true to form, they'd probably skewer half of the people coming through.

There are plenty of idiots everywhere thesedays... starter towns are just... more rampant with noobie ones. My bigger pet peeve of late is the higher level chars that act worse than newbs and use their power to bully the general populace (that can't be a match for them of course... or bring their friends in.) I doubt I need to give examples of the people that do ths in Illistim.

True. At least some of the new people to the game can still be guided somewhat.

The idea behind Vaalor being a starter city for new players is simple. They wanted to migrate more players to the eastern side of Elanthia. Most people never venture past the landing and icemule if given the choice(in the beginning).

So now you have new blood, who might never use their travel token to come west and maybe they will ventureinto Logoth, maybe orcsworld...

Because where it stands now the landing is already packed with players.

Plus you can RP great reasons to why you are in Vaalor...

I've met quite a few decent RPers in Vaalor. I wouldn't call a lot of the people there idiots, just new. I actually find Vaalor to be better for RP then the Landing.

I love Vaalor, my home is there. And it was practically one of the only places left to RP when I left a year and a few months ago.

And I agree with the person who talked about the youngins. At least when they're young, you can guide them to be better RPers, once you get too old, it's too much of a habit. I used to try and push the mentor society to have more Vaalor-knowledgable mentors, but when I left, they didn't really. Ah well, such is life.
