I really liked Sarrius' idea of using sects (which can be born or die relatively easily) as the main vehicle for RP basis and those all important mechanical buffs. Get rid of normal IRE orgs (and the bloated, deeply entrenched power structures they…

----------------…Antioch sort of -did- do that, and it was kind of awesome (although, I wouldn't say they kept the world safe). Not everyone thought so, of course. They could do it again if they had the (active) firepower, and chose to.I am aware that the two incidents are separate.(Quote) I'll respond to this part. Since when does someone have to speak "directly" to another char for their own char to know that that other char is full of itself and by all rights -should- be unable to resist such taunts to come out and fight …(Quote) You probably had a rapport with those people. That's different. It can/does happen. But I think part of why you also left Aetolia was griefing/the inherent "intensity" of PVP, yeah? PVP is just viciously competitive, in every game, from…It seems to be a near constant in PK, at least since I have ever played.
PK is so completely IC and OOC at the same time. I don't know if there is anything else that people get so emotionally invested in, living (and dying) through their…I rarely reply to enemies in game if I'm in a fight, or if a bunch of fights just finished, not to be rude, but it just keeps things from escalating. When it comes to PK, I really do think this is the best approach unless you are one of the actual t…When I read about the mob kills thing, my thought was "well, big guys will definitely go to low areas, but will hopefully be fine in that respect, because they'll knock it out pretty quick". Imperian areas seem to have a really robust respawn rate …There's probably always going to be someone with a fairly "gonna get mine" attitude in a competitive bashing environment, even if they're not super in your face about it.
It's one of the biggest downsides of an IRE with a healthy popula…Actually, I have a question. How long (in hours) is it taking the average nooblet to get the daily cap? If it's more than an hour or two (yes, even for the guy who doesn't have some awesome basher), that's way too much. Because that's... more tha…Some of our genuinely new people who heard "hey, Imperian is going free", might actually (very reasonably, with their dirty, unwashed brains) expect free to mean... FREE.There is at least one discord (definitely not official). Has quite a few former and current Imperian players in it.Unfortunately for Baasche, Septus probably thought something like "ooooo, bubblewrap". *pop* *pop* *pop*

No, this is exactly one of the points I made. In "normal" IRE, the skill differential has to be quite large for the non-artied (or realistically, less artied) person to win, which is exactly how I characterized it. Most …Basically, if you're going to go free, why -would- you keep all of the bloat that goes with a pay for perks game? Further, Imperian's biggest shot at having some sort of temporary renaissance, is probably to attract major players from other games -…I am one of those high rollers. One of the biggest. Ship has sailed. What will actually make me angry again, is if anyone tries to tell me that all of us whales didn't get screwed. Other than that, I know what has to happen (and knew before this…???
That honestly makes no sense, unless I've somehow misunderstood what you were going for. There is no way to make a free game model work without completely screwing over your existing artie whores (unless maybe you'd, you know, just l…You basically -have- to do this - just one reason (though not even the main one) people were so angry at having their high roller accounts "locked in" to the new model, rather than getting to take their investment elsewhere within IRE and come back …If Imperian actually cares even a little bit about attracting all of these big boys from other games and having them stick around for even a little bit, need to at the very least find a way of letting them get an initial glut of... something that al…It should be a prime opportunity to experiment and see what you could do with yourself, for sure. In theory, it will be almost like long running access to some sort of beta server.(Quote) For sure, but there is a class of player that can walk into this game, and with a bit of game dissection, they can -easily- destroy nearly any whale who isn't also THAT good of a combatant. There are already a couple that pop in who could …For now, you have a few (very few) locals left who are... good in their own right, yeah. But I mean, I think that there is very little breadth or depth left in our "local" pool, you know?
Anyway, the reason I see IRE's challenjour tier …I am at least a little surprised we aren't getting some big names from other games - at least not in the numbers I'd sort of expect. I mean, it's not something I ever thought would last, but I thought that us going free might mean a sort of tempora…That ship has sailed. No offense, but if you don't realize that at this point, there is nothing anyone can say to you. That is part of our frustration, too. I mean, you are actually talking to the diehards right now, who stuck around, and honestl…Basically, Wyll. I don't know why a fair amount of people like this end up concentrated on IRE servers, but they definitely do, and it can be more than a little crazymaking (and also, unfortunately, useful to admin when they take what I think would…
