the blatent, immature flaming which is littering this entire death thread. Or are they simply choosing to let it be? idk... anyway, Loth, your character was the brunt of many jokes by the tale-telling fire. Thanks for the laughs. Splntrd

(CHAR WAS AROUND A LONG TIME, REPLY AND I'LL REPLY)
Wow, that was a pretty fun go. Let's see now, I rolled Lothorectred with the sole intent to level sit at 36 and sleep/kill people 9 ranks under me. I think I accomplished that pretty well.
This was my first real mage. I learned so much, and became so much better in these 521 hours. It was really evident by the fact that my last two lives lasted for so long while I killed consistantly. At the end of my life, I really had a handle for the class. It is clear I am the worst level'er ever, and I just can't keep roleplay up through the grind.
Empire: I love the Empire. Imagine a CF full of Marans/Heralds/Pussies all holding hands and getting gear/xp. I play to kill you. I play to gank you down in 5 to 1 summon/perma-lag gangs. I play to multi-kill you, I play to full loot you. I play to be a part of the Evil you pansys love to hate. Face it, Empire Haters. CF would be no fun with just 2-3 Scions Heros and no Evil Cabal. You love to hate us. You secretly love to be full looted and ganked by us, beacuse it feels soo good to get us back.
I'll admit I wasn't that strong of a Dreadlord. I let people call me by my name... ect, but thats only because I didn't give a ####. I proved I wasn't about to be a pushover though (grin graatch).
Sevearane (SP): I can't even spell your name, but you were my favorite Imm, save Intronan. You were the Anti-thesis to Grurk, willing to smack people down when they deserved it... but not on whim.
Zulg: You're too busy to be visible that much. You still keep things running smoothly though. Thank you for not pincering me when I pwned Jhishesh.
Khas: I always had to check the helpfile to spell your name. You've always rocked, and are one of my favorite imms.
Grurk: I will never again make another Imperial. This is nothing personal, I can not live with that paranoia. I read somewhere here we should not compare CF to the Holocaust, but I believe it is comparable. Do you remember Schindlers List? When the jewish woman was telling how there is no set of rules you can follow to survive, they will kill you randomly for things that the day before and day after no one cares about? That is how you make Imperials feel. Sure, Empire needed to be cracked down on, but you popped anathema like Pez. Every day I logged on wondering when I was going to get the random Anathema. My personal opinion is you should just demote them to Oath for half of the crap you anathema for. Being an Oath and gathering donations again blows, but noobs play this game. If they don't violate a tangible Imperial Law, you should give them other chances (aka just demote) before anathema, or christ, LEAVE IT UP TO THE PC HIERARCHY. If the Blade sucks too much and gets owned all the time, let the War Master or Emperor take care of it as his char sees fit. If the War Master is too lax, let the Emperor take care of the War Master. Anathema'ing everything destroys PC to PC inner Imperial RP. And to be clear, Empire should not be happy Herald. Empire Imms should let Empire leaders deal with more of the problems, and if they do not deal with the problems, anathema THEM.
Blitzenturt: (note: why didn't anyone say I was spelling LIEGE wrong?) You rocked. You are a warrior legend, and will be remembered (as dwoggurd is, for example). Not only were you elite, but you were a great leader. Only one char has ever inspired mine like yours did, and that was Huraz. When you, or Huraz, would log in... everything would be ok. The hopless looking who pk list suddenly turned into a list of targets. We were on the hunt. All their gear are belong to us. Damn you rocked. Just to throw it out, Lothorectred was 100% loyal to you. It was in role, but I would have been anyways. Did I mention you rocked?
Urog: How hard was it to remain civil to Lothorectreds face? I got along better with you than with anyone else in Empire, save Khajaal . We got some sweet kills together. I wish... oh did I wish you had Blackjack. We would have been disgusting together. When you were Shadow Lord, Lothorectred knew most of your civility was just you aiming for the Throne, but he enjoyed the smoothness of civility so he liked you the best, genuine or not. Just to throw it out, Lothorectred was 100% loyal to you.
Ceikeilak or whatever: Remember that time you thought we set you up? We didn't. I was just lagging like a mother ####er. I wouldn't support you for Emperor, because Urog had been cool to me and black sect since before you were rolled. You're a solid char, would have liked to gotten to know you better.
Jhishesh: HAHAHHAHAhahhahahahHAhhahaHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAH HAHHAhahhahHAhHAhaHHAHAHAHahhahAHHAHAHAHahHAHAHHAhAHHAhAHHA Pwned, dude. I knew it was you from like day 2. When I woned you, I expected to get Anathema. And you know what? It would have been worth it. But no... not only do I not get anathema, you get demoted and Grurk verbally pwns you. That was the single most satisfying moment of Lothorectreds life, and unlife for that matter. Whenever I am down, I think about rocking you. I think about the look on your virtual face. It makes me smile, thank you. OMFG BBQ OWNED!!!!!!!!!!11
Wojif: Lothorectred liked you a lot. We actually had pretty good open interactions. One of main regrets of Lothos life was the time I let you get summoned to Imperial Tower gank. The stratagy I was using tended to work, but shouldn't have tried it that time. I honestly ooc and ic felt terrible about you losing that set. Sorry dude.
Quevea: What is it with Divines and Lothorectred? I just wished you would have shut up. It's ok to hate me... i expected that, but god, the griping. A few days I actually gagged tells and says from you. By the way, I was "jumpy" because I had low con for months. You, nor the target, weren't worth dying for. Thoes were Lothos beliefs. Good char, good divine.
Keyuna: Leaving was a good idea, and I agree to a point. Blitzenturt said kill Muuloc and Keyuna when he age-died, so... no matter how lame it was to kill you the way I did, I would have done it again and again.
Khajaal: We never really cared about sect ####. Guess we weren't very good Sect Leaders, but who cares? We killed the good guys.
Shanta: You did what you did good so Lothorectred liked you. We got some good pk's together bro.
Hafizar: Kick down the door and start punching people in the mouth. That is the way you lived, and I liked you, even if my style was a bit different.
Ixzwerlin: I was going to Anathema you next time I saw you. Sucks you auto'd.
Teranoth: If I had been a harsher dreadlord, I would have nuked you for being a bit "too" eager to be Dread Lord. Luckily, I didn't care and had low con, so have fun with sigil of pain! It rocks.
Damn 521 hours is a long time... trying to think. I lasted quite a few Imperial generations, and probably left out my best friends of the younger days.
Fortress: Was fun fighting all of you, except for Paladins. I quit fighting Paladins.
Lariya: You were ####. Oath tells you 'Lariya is alone at the Gates, Dread Lord.' You tell Oath 'I don't really care, i'm not defending' #### you are a beast.
Heralds: You're all pussies and I wish I could have full looted more of you.
Scions: What can I say. Scions + uncaballed = pain in the ass. I guess you're sorta our #1 enemy. Three experienced players get the same playing time, and ouch! Save for Sargataneos, you all were pretty damn good!
Dreaa: Mwuahahaha. order all get all corpse;!;!
Taidyn: Mwuahahaha. order all get all corpse;!;!
Muuloc: Mwuahahaha. order all get all corpse;!;! I took special pleasure in killing you, since Lothorectred blamed you for withering Blitzenturt and bringing his death faster.
Aytak: You and Valkonian kind of blended together, but I'm pretty sure at least my scourge got you once. Mwuahaha.
Valkonian: You and Aytak kind of blended together, but I'm pretty sure at least my scourge got you once. Mwuahaha.
Outlanders: Never were enough of ya.
Tjok: Oldschool mo fo, you rock. Without you I would have continued denying that Outlanders even existed. Peace and props, bro.
Thresinok: Didn't have any real hate for you yet, so I left your gear because its only a game. It's no fun killing people you don't hate .
Battle: With absence of Nexus and Warlock, somthing needs to change.
Xaden: Ok, so this one time, we just killed the Destructor, and were chilling in the shrine... and you log on. I cast a spell and you with my prots down and die to db. That was one of the top three most embarassing deaths with Lothorectred. That is also why I was so eager to pkill you solo. But, every time, I got so over eager that I screwed up. I'm glad I finally got it right.
Uncaballeds: Hated ya'll. Get a cabal or stay out of the wars, ####ers .
Derafhac: Got you three or four times, but somehow, you never managed to get me. I have no idea how I slipped out of some of thoes gangs. You were anti-Imperial, and did that QUITE well. Good char, and fun fights.
Loraken: Loraken was what Derafhac would have been by if Derafhac was played by a 12 year old who had never mudded before. How many times did I pk you, and how many times did you whine at me? Countless.
Rivals: There was a pretty fun race to teh Mummy. The other Spectres were my rivals. I beat them all.
Sargataneos: Owned Ixzwerlin: Owned Corlinath: Owned. I had damn near 3 times as many hours as you, how do people even compare us?
TEH LEGACY OF TEH FIRST MUMMY: So, I'm level sitting around at 36 or so... killing paladins and giants 9 ranks under me... quite content. Suddenly all this mummy commotion. I level up as best I can. Once I got to 47, I wasn't really concerned with mummying. At all. It was only when I got threatened with Anathema by Khaso, about the same time some other spectres were getting close to completeing their quests, that I started to worry about it.
So we race, and I win. Then I'm a level 47 mummy and quite content. Again I got prodded to rank, so I did. I didn't really want to, I hate ranking.
You know whats suck about being a mummy? You lose 1 con with each death, like a lich. You know what sucks about new ####? They have bugs. It's a fact of life, and code. What really sucks is dying to bugs as a mummy, because when each death is a con and you are that old, each one hurt. So for the majority of my mummyhood, I had dangerously low con. People thought I died all the time for a while, since when I first mummied I died like 4 times to 3 bugs and 1 "hey, i'm vuln light!". In the end, my last two lives I lived lasted what... two months +?
Great run, post and I'll reply. Sorry about the loots, remember, it's just a game.

Nope, never got me with scourge, perhaps it was Valkonian. I do remember for the majority of our fights (read one on one or two on me) I would send you fleeing with the cast 'buffet' Loth spam. Judging from your 'in cabal' hints you dish out here I'm thinking Aytak's impression of you as being the Dread Lord and his subsequent chiding/derision of Blitzenturt about you was dead on. (though the fact that this is likewise mentioned by an Imm under Blitz's Imm comments seems to support this as well)
As an aside... Sargataneos: Owned - You're not really clapping yourself on the back for Sarg right? Ixzwerlin: Owned -Ixzwerlin managed some sweet kills, one being that storm giant paladin who 'seemingly' always had defiance, solo by utilizing tactics and choosing the battlefield. While you might have owned him elsewhere he had a bigger set than you ever had. (level sitting and popping people nine ranks below you isn't 'set worthy') Corlinath: Owned. I had damn near 3 times as many hours as you, how do people even compare us? -Here, the comparing is purely based on having a set, as per above. Corilanth didn't hide, he went after power which was more RP than Loth ever displayed in truth. If you're an evil undead necromancer you want to gather power and strength not only do so when the threat of anathema is raised. (Again, hours spent level sitting and picking off characters nine ranks below you along with most of your other comments and the like are more taking advantage of game mechanics and number crunching, but if that's what makes things fun for you...
All that being said, if you enjoyed the character that's all that really matters. Hopefully you'll feel comfortable at some point to round things out a bit and make your characters as fun to watch/interact with as they seem to be for you to play. Laters, Aytak

(My leet trash talking was light hearted at best. Take it how you will, I could care less) Yeah, considering wraithform had me perma-flying, I usually did flee.
Other than that, you didn't have anything to do with the "race" I was talking about (and took that section the wrong way)... nor me, for that matter.
"Judging from your 'in cabal' hints you dish out here I'm thinking Aytak's impression of you as being the Dread Lord and his subsequent chiding/derision of Blitzenturt about you was dead on.

Rofl, what? Are you getting at that I only got Dread Lord because I kissed the Emperors ass? Well then, guess I played my Imperial well and rose in power to Sect Leader. Thanks.
"If you're an evil undead necromancer you want to gather power and strength not only do so when the threat of anathema is raised."
Who are you to tell me what my character likes and does not like? One might me mistaken from your post, but you really are not the know-all master of Lothorectred. Just an FYI, one of the things Lothorectred liked the most was torturing things weaker than him. This is reflected in him often summoning/walking to children pc's and sleeping/scourging them before letting his dead eat them.
Yeah, Corilanth didn't hide. Corilanth also died like two weeks after mummying.
Who the #### were you, anyways? No one I care(d) about. Farewell, Aytak!

-I might give above a fraction of weight if your reaction and your own post weren't so the opposite. You never sited a role for why you level sat, in fact even then you're full of it considering whatever level you are there are always those who are lower than you to pick on. Children mobs are children mobs whether you're 36th or 51st, but you go on and delude yourself as you wish, again, it does nothing but prove my point.
Yeah, Corilanth didn't hide. Corilanth also died like two weeks after mummying.
-Ask anyone which is more fun to interact or watch, a character who hides or one who faces the challenges without falling into predictable patterns to avoid death by staying offline until/unless his cabal has at least a few members around. Using something like that to avoid challenges is sad RP and weak in general, but yeah you proved you know how to huddle better if that makes you feel more accomplished.
Who the #### were you, anyways? No one I care(d) about. Farewell, Aytak!
-Just a fellow gamer, who responded to your post as you presented it. Nothing more nothing less...

Judging by your juvenile respones I tend to think this is what you the player like the most.
I don't get the impression that you were RPing anything, but that it was an extension of your own ego.
Am I wrong?

Yay, I've been compared to Jew-killing Nazis! Yeah, you're right, probably shouldn't compare CF to the holocaust.
Sure, Empire needed to be cracked down on, but you popped anathema like Pez.
It wasn't/isn't quite that bad. In fact, I've promoted more than I've demoted/anathema'd combined.
Every day I logged on wondering when I was going to get the random Anathema.
Contrary to popular belief, I've never 'randomly' anathema'd anyone. They at least did something wrong.
My personal opinion is you should just demote them to Oath for half of the crap you anathema for. Being an Oath and gathering donations again blows, but noobs play this game. If they don't violate a tangible Imperial Law, you should give them other chances (aka just demote) before anathema, or christ, LEAVE IT UP TO THE PC HIERARCHY.
This is a great idea, except no one wants to be the bad guy. I mean think about it... what do you gain in making your sect/cabal weaker by demoting your mates? It just doesn't happen. Just look to Blitzenturt's riegn as Emperor as evidence to this truth.
If the Blade sucks too much and gets owned all the time, let the War Master or Emperor take care of it as his char sees fit. If the War Master is too lax, let the Emperor take care of the War Master.
Again, perfect in principle.. but it will probably never happen in practice. Who wants to be the bad guy? We had some alarmingly high numbers, in regards to total cabal population just as recent as a couple weeks ago. Something like: Empire had more memebers than all other cabals combined. We clearly had some dead wieght in there somewhere.
Anathema'ing everything destroys PC to PC inner Imperial RP. And to be clear, Empire should not be happy Herald. Empire Imms should let Empire leaders deal with more of the problems, and if they do not deal with the problems, anathema THEM.
See above.
Thanks for the comments. I do wish Empire was a little more like what you describe. Maybe someday soon it will be, if we could just get some evil Imperials.
I liked Loth quite a bit, despite my coldness on a few of our interactions. PWKing Jhishesh was a classic I will not soon forget. OOC, I knew you should have gotten smacked hard for that, which did eventually happen. But IC, Grurk was ok with the Black and Divine fighting, since it didn't really affect the Blade sect.
Anyways, hope you enjoyed. Good luck.

'Thanks for the comments. I do wish Empire was a little more like what you describe. Maybe someday soon it will be, if we could just get some evil Imperials.'
Maybe a full-fledged campaign aimed at forcing leaders to step up in just the ways described? I think that might do it.
I could be compared to Amadeus or what not. You know, curled up in a corner, paranoid as all hell... just waiting for the Anathema to come for me. AND I HAVE A POT OF COINS!!... Hrm, maybe I do need to work on my comparisons.
Peace.

Good! The threat of anathema should hang over Imperials at all times. Not that we're going to make random anathema, but you should fear it like you fear the wrath of the Lord's. The Empire doesn't use kid gloves, it cracks the whip, and let's you know that whip could crack any time you stray from what the Empire is about.
Good job altogether. I interacted with you a good bit, sometimes it obviously being me, sometimes not. You did well throughout.

And I've been smacked down for it. Maybe I should join empire, because it sounds like you're actually promoting EVIL tendencies. Truthfully, when I play an evil cabal I want backstabbing, dissent, scheming, power grabs, etc etc. Not TEAM EVIL's approach:
Evil 1: Let's go raid!
Evil 2: Amazing idea, Evil 1!
Evil 3: Awwwwwesooommmeee!
Evil 4: Evil 1, 2, & 3...I respect and honor you as my cabalmates. Let's do it!!!
Evil Imm: I'm glad to see we are all approaching a homogeneous mixture of bland impersonality.
My ideal would be:
Evil 1: Let's go raid!
Evil 2: Please, feel free to waste your time obtaining (cabal y)'s trinket. I'm pursuing my own goals that will make us all unstoppable.
Evil 3: *snickers* Both of you are wasting your time. There are other ways to get what we want instead of your usual ham-handed approaches.
Evil 4: I want (item y) and I want it now. We will all go, or you will regret your lax attitude.
Evil Imm: How lovely to see you all in agreement. Please, sort this out amongst yourselves. Oh, and if you do not have (cabal item y) quite soon, report to me for immediate flaying.

Well, you didn't get booted for being evil, I liked that part in general and I agree with your views entirly. You got booted for more reasons I'll delve into when I'm dead and gone whenever that may come. But, it wasn't for being evil I promise, I like it to much to boot you, though don't change because of it. I'd just suggest knowing Dreaa more IC then you may understand better why it happened, but under the current circumstances, I don't think you can complain to much.
Sorry, Loth, has little to do with your deleting, now I'll get to that...
No matter how many times I fought you or didn't fight you, I knew what was going to happen far before it happened. SOMEHOW I'll get knocked out/slept and instantly forgotten. Most the time I can get away even when spelled up, but those few rare times there would be you and a shaman and I would be summoned back JUST before I hit the exit of the area. Normally I tended to get away, but a few times there was just nothin I could do. Nice job, hated you for many reason Never went out of my way to avoid you though, I knew if I could stay awake there was very little you could do to me. Nice job regardless.

And if you happen to get on the wrong side of the people too high above you...you get booted. Not because you played evil wrong, but because you pissed off the wrong people, being evil. And in return, the evil people with power, being their evil selves, boot you. It happens in both Scion and Empire, I just think in Empire, the political boundries are much clearer, while Scion's waters are murkier.

Grurk said everyone was promotion happy. IE not being evil bastards who ruled with iron fists.
My personal view on Scion is different, but I still got slapped down. Why is my view different? Read the helpfile.

#32403, "The Million Dollar Answer!?!?!?!"
In response to Reply #2

Hey Grurk. Maybe it can be pushed so that there are limits on the number of Elite/Regular/Sheathed/Oathed Blades and the same for other sects. Right now demoting your lessers is, ICly, the dumbest thing you could do because you're just making people who ultimately help you weaker. It may sound Oooohhh mean and evil but any leader that did that in real life would literally be considered an idiot. I mean, that's like two countries going to war, one country has the means to equip every soldier of theirs with laser-guided-perfect-accuracy-can-kill-from-thirty- miles-away-never-running-out-of-ammunition-rocket-launchers ("Ultimate Weapon") but instead they only give a fourth of their soldiers that "Ultimate Weapon". Great way to lose a war, I'd say. I say limit the number of of "Ultimate Weapon"'s that can be dished out.
All I'm saying is this... You have 40 Blades: 1 can be Imperial War Master 9 can be Elite Imperial Blades 20 can be Imperial Blades 10 must be Sheathed Blades
Likewise if the number of Blades drop, then so do the number of positions available. This would encourage hatred as well, since if all the positions are filled, in order to promote someone you like, you -have- to demote someone you don't like. Imagine being the demoted one in favor of another? Are you mad? Yes. Knowing full well that you won't retake that position without getting another Blade demoted, will you underhandedly try to get them demoted? Yes. Hell, you might even -make up- a reason to get them anathematized just so -you- can have that position. I mean if you ever want to be War Master you need to be an Elite Blade first.
If possible, I would even make the sect ranks of offline Blades available in the Blade sect room. Maybe a script that auto- updates a room description to include it upon promotion/demotion?
Anyways, glad to see you on Team Evil's side, - Kazadan

Currently there are limits regardless of Sect on War Master (1), Elites (4 blades, 2 for other sects). Stretching it beyond that, I'm not so convinced of, but some semblance of what you ask for is already there. So long, and thanks for all the fish!

You were fun. Yeah, I don't think you ever died in front of me, and I certainly fell to your ganks two or so times(and once when I was healing from beating the #### out of two imperial warriors half-naked- you killed me with vampiric touch.) Anyway, you made me consider-wish I had taken place instead of harmonious.
I didn't mind the attitude. It was perfect.
Aytak was better than you though.
Anyway, good luck with the next. Who else have you played?

yeah, seems its looks like my style, i close to never cared if i would die, yet, i tried to avoid it That time you said that you have order from Blitz to not face that paladin (unsure about the name, the one with defiance sword) really pissed me off, for i never had those troubles. But now i understand your point, with low con and losing 1 point every death, you surely cared much to survive. And you still did good, see ya in da fields.

I think simple will be best. I respected your character until I read this. Then you completely change my mind by posting something so immature, that the middle schoolers I teach wouldn't even write it. I think I will leave it at that, and hey, roll a character that role plays next time?

You're letting OOC comments affect your beliefs on an IC char. If I didn't roleplay, I wouldn't have stayed cabal'd for 500 hours or be Dreadlord. All I am saying is I am no Aragrah.

Three of my items me and tamber located before quevea got them when I logged off. Venom, I had to basically figure out the quest by myself.
The fact that I barely showed my face during Urogs rule is that #### had started that caused my playing times to plumet, so I passed the torch to Teranoth. I got no free rides.

But well it was worth my time, I didn't do much but then again with out what I told you I doubt you would have gotten that last item. or atleast not so fast, and maybe age died before you did.

I wish I had alot more playing time avaliable, but I am setting up a IT service department IRL. That I must say is choking my playing times. It is always fun to actually have people go out of their way to interact with you. Sometimes playing the silent secluded type makes you stand out alot more than others.
Hope that you come back with another imperial. Empire seems empty with just the occasional blade online.

That after three failed sleep attempts in a row on a character, that person should be immune to sleep for 20 or so ticks. Because all you did was flee/sleep over and over and over and over and over and over and over. Anyone who wanted some kind of real fight out of you, it was impossible. At some point the immortals should force the necromancer class to utilize other tactics instead of waiting for the random number generator to fall their way. One trick pony. You never stood and fought or used anything else except for sleep. There is so much more to the class and you still, after 521 hours, have no idea. Thats unfortunate.
The one time I tried to roleplay with you I was received with stellar 12 year old roleplay. There must have been a side to you that the immortals liked, so I will give you props for that, but from what I saw, and judging from your childish goodbye post, I can't hold you in any good light. I hope your next character comes along and proves me wrong, and watch your posting, just reaffirms peoples' poor view of you.

#32402, "Heralds comment."
In response to Reply #12

You were good at killing I give you that. but half the time you could rp your way out of a wet paper bag. How you ever went beyond 47 with the mental capacity of a six year old is beyond me. It's easy to call someone weak when you raid the Inn and are killing individuals with three to five people at your side. Try playing a Herald someday and see what the otherside feels like. Actually don't.. you'd never make it in anyway. And if you doubt my words at me being an easy kill for you, just remember, the ONE time you got Ansrtril it took you, Urog and Jhishesh to bring me down, and believe me, I was by no means a difficult kill. Nuff said.

You contradict yourself, my good Barfly.

Actually, acording to your description of me, I'd for sure get High Herald and most likely Imm... seeing as I fit the criteria of all past ones to a key.

I have to agree with Martoonie about this. Clearly it's a helluva lot easier to be a mummy than a lich. Liches have to RP, unless the Imms require the same of mummy's to one degree or another I'd vote for them to remove the option entirely. Nothing worse than an effectively immortal six year old playing the game, not that Loth's player could manage to stay alive that long. Thanks for proving his point as well Loth.

I never claimed to be able to spell well but the point remains obvious. *Couldn't.*
The Inn truly would burn to the ground before you made High Herald or Imm'd as a Herald. I don't say it often, and I did give you kudos on being able to kill, but you still are an idiot child. You fit nowhere in the scheme of even the must mundane Herald. I'm sure you served some purpose, I wouldn't call it much, but as even you claimed - sitting at a rank and killing those nine levels below you for long periods.. Add to your own self what you titled the Heralds. At least I had the guts to fight you mano a mano. Check your ego. It needs adjusting.
