  • Portable shipping drone that lets you mail things away from Crazy J's shops. 
  • No, no market channel, and no public advertisement system. Hopefully those will come soon.
  • In addition to market ads and letters (for when you need paragraphs), a holovid skill could be interesting.

  • HELP WRITING STANDARDS covers some of this. 

    Approval seems to be run by the administration and their volunteers, although they are still organizing their own policy.

    Appearances cannot have commas. There is some debate about d…

  • A new desire:

    A global market channel and advertisements.

    With trade terminals scattered as independent shops, rather than storefronts to a central stock, it is difficult to communicate where others can go to find your g…
  • This is a really great change, thank you @Tecton!

  • The issue I have been having is at-level areas providing fewer marks than lower-level areas (level 50-60 range), when looked at per-kill rather than per-grind, since lower level you can work through more more quickly. It encouraged grinding lower le…
  • Shaka, when the walls fell. :(

  • Not all zones are created equal. 40-50 zone was cranking out a really decent amount, but the 50+ zone I've explored was a pittance in comparison (easily 1/4 what I was making before, if not less).

  • It isn't enforced, no, but that doesn't mean we then need to encourage being OOC. You're expected to be IC. HELP IC specifies the difference between In Character and actively roleplaying. I'm not adverse to a scene-finder flag, for people actively l…
  • I don't think further adding visibility to being In Character would be good, because it validates/encourages the general acceptance of being OOC. It isn't as much about immersion but the understand that we're all supposed to be in character, however…
  • I don't mind the 200cr entry fee. That's like Achaea and I can deal with it.

    The 15000 submission cost is pretty harsh though. The concept of royalties is neat, but you would need 60 downloads to break even (which means 60 people paying 2…
  • What happens with XP rankings with this cap? Just a queue of 'who got 75 first and who lost their spot in death'?
  • It seems like an unnecessary restriction.
  • We don't need to encourage OOC interaction further. Discords are already around, and we have the forums as a resource. This is an RP game, and while you aren't required to roleplay, you really lose something when you treat it as a chatroom. Getting …
  • For reference, this is HELP IC:

    91.6 IC, OOC, and Roleplaying

    To roleplay means to play a role. In the context of Starmourn, roleplaying means that you play as your character, similar to acting on a stage…

  • Personally I would say that those modern terms would be in poor taste and already outmoded considering how far into the future the game is set. They would be archaic like folk phrases are today. 
  • Could the news readout be updated to show x/20 posts for where we read last? Why are you so cruel, making us do basic subtraction?! This is 2018 we don't carry calculators in our pock-I mean, why!?
  • I play a decent portion of my time on Chromebook. I end up with a few issues (typically spam issues and keeping windows disabled/where I want them), but for casual play and bashing it's been fine. I don't have the coding know-how to try anything mor…

  • Where are you bashing? I was making about 1500-2k for 2 hours in Praviskar, which is a 20-30 area. 
  • You're ranked #29, 950 seems pretty reasonable for that period where you can reliably make more marks.
  • OK dude. #MakeStarmournGreatAgain?
  • In this kind of community and 'product', no, the customer is not always right. Yes, our money's important, and yes, there's a general goal to produce a quality product that will encourage users to stay and continue to invest. But it's still a modera…
  • I don't see a chart either. 
  • For the volume of cursing. 

    And it is the Dev's game. In the end, they have a stake in what kind of community they want to foster, as we're the ones they have to deal with when it comes to balancing and events. 
  • I don't think I've seen anyone say that cursing is outright childish and bad. There's been an issue of overkill, that sparked an equally as strong reaction. Then there's regional variations as to what kind of cursing is typical/common day versus som…
  • To go on the cooking theme - salt and spices are important for dishes, as is language for storytelling and character expression. Some things will have more, others will have less. Everyone additionally has their own preferred palate. If you want you…
  • Or there could be some cool mixed language from all the different races, that have just become vernacular at this point (similar to how cojones and fungool have worked their way into English).
  • Will it be straight bleeping, or will it be substituting?
