This archive encompasses approximately 25 years of CF discussion. Today, that discussion continues on Discord (see the main website for a link).
Some of the special-purpose forums are listed below along with their replacements (as of writing):
The Battlefield: all deaths and deletions are now automatically published to Discord (link on the main website)
Premium Battlefield: PBFs, both old and new, are published on the main website
Bug Submissions: on the main website, click "Bug Board"
Code Changes: code changes (not bug fixes) are documented on Discord
Do characters have an IC concept that doing quests that give XP will give them some sort of "reward" with their guildmaster? Say an evil character, whose role stipulates that he doesn't help people unless he's getting something in return, were to do a xp quest that involves helping some hapless npc. Would it be against his role, or would he have the understanding that he was going to "get something" for running this npc's errand? Or does it just depend on how explicit the particular quest is?
When playing evil, the only time I do quests is if the NPC tells me up front that I'll get something for running the errand (or if the quest is just obviously evil in nature). My character weighs his options, and if it seems worth it, he'll agree to perform the task. Without that up front statement, I won't do the quest, though I could think of a few ways to RP it so I would be justified in completing it.
