In all of this discussion I havent seen anyone indicating how you'll overcome the fact that a MUD reboot will wipe out any items not stored in a coded store... Would the dwelling be just that or are you assuming that each will have its own storeroom? Which is one of the reasons dwellings have fallen...

Apologies to Lysha's player as I should have spotted this when she first began posting excerpts from Races of Faerun. But... Can you please all be aware that any source books carrying this disclaimer: This Wizards of the Coast game product contains no Open Game Content. No portion of this work may b...

Although events are organised in an OOC fashion, please do ensure that in game the competitions and encounters are IC.

Orcs and elves competing against each other in such an event would be hard to cover ICly.

I have a question about the new applications process. Should I resend an application or send a reminder saying hey I send one in, read it please in the application forum like the old email system? Or should I wait and trust that it will be read and someone will respond whether or not it has been ac...

To confirm and clarify the above: If a Faith Manager is absent or otherwise unavailable/unable, then Inner Circle members may quest hopefuls. This was our intention when permissions were set. Ideally, this would happen with with the FM's consent, but provided that they are advised of the action it s...

Nothing new to add to the (very useful) debate above.. but I was intrigued by this comment... Honestly, I don't see that anything that makes travel, scouting and exploration harder (or devalues the usefulness of mages) is really encouraging to the RP side of things. I'm old fashioned I know... but m...

I appreciate the noble intentions behind assisting new players, but posting the numerical values for various adjective descriptors is not acceptable.

Apologies for sidetrackign this discussion briefly, but I need to comment on the above.. It's just a fact that while FK is an RP focused MUD we already have people in the game that like nothing better than to be uber powerful and hit dummies all day. Honestly I don't really mind if people want to do...

The organisation review begun in late 2007 did not result in any action being taken. The playerbase and Imm staff were just too diminshed to carry out the various plans suggested. In time I plan on returning to this topic as well as the situation with faith orders, but I have several other projects ...

As a player I'm all for this change. Anything which facilitates faith hopefuls meeting their FMs is all to the good. Currently, the white title exists in code as the different clerics guilds' 'heroname' which is why no titles exist for non-cleric FMs. I'd say that the best bet code-wise would be to ...

I can implement some of this idea in the area I'm currently building - a soft code prog on a mining pick to intercept the MINE command and throw out random items. Give me a list of existing raw materials or components that are valid and I'll see what I can do. (I should warn that I've been working o...

Is there an Apply_Ignite in the same way that there is an Apply_climb Apply_Hide etc? So, for example: #QQ00 {90}Really hot thing~ {80}a really hot thing for lighting fires~ {80}A really hot thing for lighting fires been left here.~ ~ ITEM_TYPE_TRASH 0 CAN_WEAR_TAKE|CAN_WEAR_HOLD QUALITY_AVERAGE MAT...

I've placed a crate in the Auction House of Waterdeep market and dropped some mundane components and sundries in it. Call this a dry run for something we could add to other cities. Take what you can use from the crate and drop in what you think others might have a use for. It's a little bit OOC, but...

For the record.. I have no problem at all with players earning coin. It is, as you say, the underpin for most adventuring and in my days as a mortal I worked hard to raise several thousand platinum to buy a dwelling. However, I feel it's a little harsh to take my comments and use them to intimate th...

I need this symbol coding to ASCII for use in a new area. http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/forgottenrealms/images/0/0b/Gond_symbol.jpg Full accreditation to the artist if I use your version. The description will need to fit in normal text limits for a room, so no more than 60-70 characters in lengt...

For reference http://www.forgottenkingdoms.org/board/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=7317&hilit=economy It should also be noted that area economies do recover over time, back to their original value. The problem, as noted above, is that sold items are rarely re-purchased, most sub-areas dont contribute ...

I found myself wondering whether or not everyone knows that you can make two types of armour with this trade: hide armour if you work an untanned skin and leather armour if the skin is tanned. Studded armour has been mooted before: tanned skin + metal ingot = studded leather Leather containers could...

All but a few of the nine main tradecrafts have at least one learning quest which is open to all races/classes. (And Gond already offers some faith-specific quests for them) You can also learn trades from players who have taken the relevant teaching feats. However, to echo Gwain's advice... As I am ...

Be sure to search the boards for similar posts which you can revive or add to rather than start afresh as often that means previous information is lost.

Creating a mercenary company is covered by the rules you allude to and is well within the scope of the game. However, I do need to comment on your reference to orcs and goblisn working together. Unlike Orcs, goblinoid races worship only a single deity (save for, I think, desert goblins who worship a...
