Great idea! But since I'm fortunate enough to have met forum in person, I'll let other people have the opportunity to meet him in chat. :)


I have a suggestion... make a seperate room on IRC just for the occasion, and make it moderated (which means anyone who isn't given a voice can't speak) so that anyone may come in and at least listen in, then give voice to the people you decide are allowed to meet forum.

That way the people who would like to meet him but can't think of anything to say can just listen in and bask in his presence. ;)

You could also have it so that if anyone decides they want to say something, they can pm you to ask for a voice. Also, this cuts back on the amount of people who are allowed to talk at any given time, which will hopefully lessen the "OMG GIVE ME FREE NAQ YOU ROX0RZ!!!!111~~" type of messages.

Also, if you need any help modding the chat and I'm around (I don't know my work schedule yet) I'd be happy to assist.

Sometimes some of the mods will try to step on you, or even mod your section. My advice is to fill a sock with marbles and hit them repeatedly until they stop. - Pianomutt2000.

screening ideas have been changed.

all are welcome to come into the room, but not everyone will be able to talk, depending on how many show up.

the room is #theplace, and you are all welcome to visit it now. Forum/Jason will only show up at 10 though, for those who don't know, thats about 35 minutes from this post.

logs!

For those of you who couldn't make it in time, who had work ect, here are the logs from the 2 meet and greets with Admin. :)

Yes there is quite a bit of talk there, 2 hours worth of constant chatter between Admin and the players who turned up.

[07:06:27] <12~admin> i firstly apologize for not being here more often. hopefully i can make this a more frequent event opposed to once per 2years :)
[07:06:36] <Gaara> lol
[07:06:44] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> considering sgw's hasn't been around for 2 years >_>
[07:06:50] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> "officially"
[07:06:51] <Gaara> where always here
[07:06:55] <10squishie> you're a busy person :P if you spent as much time here as i do... the game would still be in beta :p
[07:07:01] <12~admin> true.
[07:07:12] <12~admin> lots of updates on the go now
[07:07:17] <Gaara> sweet
[07:07:24] <Motte> sounds like fun
[07:07:28] <10squishie> lots of fun updates?
[07:07:29] <12~admin> sounds like work ;)
[07:07:34] <Motte> that too
[07:08:05] <blaze> thnx for putting so much time and effort into it, great game
[07:08:14] <Gaara> amen
[07:08:18] <12~admin> so - my goal in this is to answer question, take comments/criticism, and in general allow an 'open forum' in a casual way.
[07:08:18] * blaze 's 2 cents
[07:08:28] <Gaara> nice
[07:08:47] <Bazsy> I do have answers and comments too:)
[07:08:51] <Gaara> can we please supers
[07:08:53] <Bazsy> i mean questions:D
[07:08:53] <Bazsy> lol
[07:08:58] <Gaara> sell
[07:08:59] * squishie is now known as supersquish
[07:09:02] <12~admin> i fall behind on email too often, and its hard to get immediate response. hopefully this allows more interaction, even if limited audience
[07:09:21] <Motte> admin in that case i am right that http://www.stargatewars.de is dead
[07:09:22] <12~admin> you can 'seed my brain' with good ideas :)
[07:09:26] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> i had hoped for a bigger audience...
[07:09:35] <12~admin> .de is on hold
[07:09:41] <12~admin> my german dude got a job :(
[07:09:50] <Gaara> can we maby start to sell supers
[07:09:57] <Gaara> please
[07:10:00] <Motte> well i sent you an email about it ages ago
[07:10:05] <Bazsy> well im here, and since i read all the "for admin" section i can sum it all:)
[07:10:07] <Bazsy> if needed
[07:10:09] <Motte> offered help
[07:10:12] <12~admin> to what end? the reason cant is to keep something in an account.
[07:10:36] <12~admin> i read the bugs/for admin/and general
[07:10:56] <supersquish> admin: what about if you had a team or a person who sorted through all your mail and had the important stuff forwarded asap and maybe the less important stuff to a less important box... might make the email easier to handle
[07:11:03] <12~admin> supers are a 'constant build' concept. a one way street.
[07:11:12] <Motte> and that is good so
[07:11:21] <12~admin> i have support@ for that reason
[07:11:22] <Gaara> had to try
[07:11:27] * zesh (mailto:zesh113@490833EE.1CC35B2C.5E1E27FA.IP) has joined #theplace
[07:11:39] <zesh> Oo
[07:11:41] <12~admin> i get filtered email from support@
[07:11:47] <12~admin> but even then, it gets overwhelming.
[07:11:52] <Bazsy> :)
[07:11:54] <Gaara> i bet
[07:12:01] <Motte> seems mine never arived
[07:12:03] <12~admin> when i do updates, etc, i ignore email for the time. then fall behind. then get overwhelmed.
[07:12:16] <12~admin> i plead guilty to email chaos.
[07:12:21] <Gaara> lol
[07:12:34] <12~admin> plus - having my email 'public' gets me a LOT of spam
[07:12:39] <Bazsy> Could we get someone with admin rights check the cheates section say 1x per week?
[07:12:40] <12~admin> hard to tell the real emails
[07:12:48] <Gaara> i have always wonderd do you play the game
[07:12:59] <Motte> true
[07:13:01] <12~admin> cheat section -yes. i will try to get more done there. it is not easy.
[07:13:18] <12~admin> its time consuming, and can even slow the game when i query the logs
[07:13:21] <Bazsy> i know... i was thinking of filtering it too somehow
[07:13:22] <Motte> i dont want to imaging how many mails you get a day
[07:13:27] * SGW_Guest147 (mailto:SGW_Guest1@GA-F054B096.dip0.t-ipconnect.de) has joined #theplace
[07:13:41] <12~admin> for the cheat - i am about 90% done a filter script (again)
[07:13:45] <Motte> german ip
[07:13:49] <Bazsy> there are some cheater (mostly multies) reported like 6times and one of them has like 100multies...
[07:13:56] <supersquish> ice_man Bazsy :p
[07:14:00] <Bazsy> yeah
[07:14:02] <12~admin> sure they're still there?
[07:14:07] <Bazsy> ice_man, and fire_man
[07:14:08] <supersquish> dunno -goes to check-
[07:14:09] <Bazsy> let me check
[07:14:32] <SGW_Guest147> hey all geisha here :P
[07:14:39] <Motte> moin
[07:14:47] <supersquish> ok they died :p
[07:14:55] <Bazsy> yeah nice:)
[07:14:57] <12~admin> problem with delegating admin level functions, is the trust factor
[07:15:10] <Gaara> true
[07:15:13] <Motte> SGW_Guest147 are you german?
[07:15:15] <supersquish> yeah... very true
[07:15:24] <Bazsy> get someone who doesnt play... like Wolf359, he quit the game...
[07:15:36] <12~admin> its a tradeoff between results, and conflict of interest.
[07:15:41] <12~admin> and time.
[07:15:46] * SGW_Guest147 is now known as geisha
[07:15:48] <Bazsy> i know...
[07:15:52] <12~admin> yes -someone removed is good, but still there are loyalties
[07:16:18] <12~admin> the script i am making, should give just enough to determine if cheat or no - and ability to act.
[07:16:18] <Bazsy> I was thinking if an outside someone.... but he wouldnt know the ingame things:)
[07:16:32] <12~admin> yes - outside =not enough knowledge. inside=conflict of interest
[07:16:45] <12~admin> thsu the dilemma and why a script to prefilter
[07:16:53] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> someone who quit?
[07:16:55] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> would that work?
[07:17:04] <12~admin> if no relations to existing players, which is hard
[07:17:08] <geisha> you never know if they really quit ;)
[07:17:11] <Bazsy> thats fine. Just think about the inocent ppls it can filter out accidentaly...
[07:17:19] <Bazsy> True...
[07:17:40] <12~admin> innocents will always get included. more if the account killing is strict.
[07:17:50] <12~admin> less if not - but then it catches less real cheaters
[07:18:04] <Gaara> my co was hacked
[07:18:11] <12~admin> imagine your housemate a big cheat. and you with one account but same details.
[07:18:22] <12~admin> hard not to ban you too
[07:18:29] <12~admin> co? commander?
[07:18:29] * SGW_Guest105 (mailto:SGW_Guest1@GA-73CE35FF.range86-1 ... alplus.com) has joined #theplace
[07:18:31] <Bazsy> yes, and i can imagin ppls with dynamic ips...
[07:18:44] * SGW_Guest105 is now known as Teh
[07:18:48] <12~admin> yup. whole countries sharing IP range
[07:19:01] <Gaara> yes
[07:19:12] <12~admin> that is why there are ingame limits on -even if a cheater tried to cheat - what they can actually do
[07:19:24] <Motte> we are still not able to trade
[07:19:29] <12~admin> so its dual - 1) limit abilit to cheat 2)catch ones that try
[07:19:36] <12~admin> who is we?
[07:19:44] <Motte> me and a few friends
[07:19:47] <Motte> same school
[07:19:48] <12~admin> same IP shared
[07:19:55] <Motte> school network
[07:19:55] <supersquish> yeah thats a point... i cant trade with someone who lives 100miles away :S
[07:20:16] <12~admin> school network, or 1 player at a school with 100 accounts? how can i really tell?
[07:20:22] <Bazsy> i see.. im a security engineer, so i can imagine... If u make it hard for the bad guys it will be harder for the good guys too...:S
[07:20:28] <Motte> true
[07:20:29] <12~admin> yup. exactly
[07:20:37] <12~admin> everything is compromise
[07:20:44] <12~admin> i try to keep it balanced.
[07:20:54] <12~admin> but there is no perfect answer.
[07:20:58] <Motte> you can meet a few of them in here
[07:21:04] <Motte> true
[07:21:09] <Motte> you never can say
[07:21:29] <Motte> thats the problem
[07:21:34] <Gaara> there are many cheaters in the chat
[07:21:37] <Bazsy> Closing the cheaters thing: can we get a topic where u can put actions u made against them? that would show the ppls that things are moving. And i would be able to delete outdated topics...
[07:21:38] <Gaara> all the time
[07:21:45] <Motte> but we can live with it
[07:21:51] <Gaara> ok
[07:22:03] <12~admin> ok - on the cheating topic - i will continue to work on the script but nothing will ever be 100%. i will see if i can get some more dedicated time to it - delegated or not
[07:22:45] <12~admin> i usually run queries on cheats - hard to list everything, since it updates multiple records all at once.
[07:22:48] <Bazsy> If the script will work i think we will only get like 1 cheater reports a day... now its around 3 (2 out of 3 is a multi)
[07:22:53] <zesh> my bro and me play
[07:22:56] <zesh> but at the same time
[07:23:01] <zesh> we have 2 pcs
[07:23:07] <Motte> and if you ever need help with translations from german to english and other way around
[07:23:09] <12~admin> using 2 browsers, i can do the same thing.
[07:23:12] <Motte> you can find me here
[07:23:14] <Motte> if needed
[07:23:22] <Motte> so are a few other german
[07:23:29] <12~admin> motte - i may take you up on that in future. but for now have to focus on 3 other things first :)
[07:23:29] <geisha> like me :P
[07:23:39] <Motte> kk
[07:23:47] <Motte> geisha
[07:23:48] <Motte> i know
[07:23:51] <zesh> hmm admin
[07:24:00] <zesh> 1 guy u shud look into is magic_pl
[07:24:03] <zesh> his own alliance guys
[07:24:07] <zesh> admited he had multies
[07:24:08] <12~admin> if you are the one that sent email, i did forward that to my german friend, but no answer since he got job. i will post on forum when i'm good to go for looking at .de
[07:24:14] <zesh> and hes grown amazing quickly
[07:24:17] <zesh> same as me
[07:24:20] <zesh> and ive been rading
[07:24:21] <zesh> too
[07:24:22] * Kasket (mailto:DeathIs@GA-CE4E5B40.sd.sd.cox.net) has joined #theplace
[07:24:24] <zesh> raiding too
[07:24:35] <zesh> rhett suspects him too
[07:24:39] <zesh> he said hed talk to you
[07:24:52] <Motte> i think i was the guy with the email about .de
[07:25:05] <12~admin> ok. good. i have the email saved.
[07:25:11] <Motte> :)
[07:25:14] <Motte> if not
[07:25:18] <Motte> you will find me here
[07:25:26] <Motte> in #stargatewars.de
[07:25:40] <12~admin> on specific cheaters, etc - post in forum. i will look eventually or use to test script :) but i was hoping for more general, higher level topics here ...
[07:25:58] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> cheaters is a big concern. hehe
[07:26:01] <Gaara> oh admin can we have more planets
[07:26:04] <12~admin> i know the 'daily operations' need new eyes. that is not unknown.
[07:26:05] <Bazsy> Okay i will put in my next one:) : Bugs section: A topic with "known bugs (working on them" title would be nice... since they always come there and report the same bug, and it takes place from the new ones...
[07:26:23] <12~admin> who is bugs mod?
[07:26:27] <12~admin> or is there one?
[07:26:27] <Bazsy> me
[07:26:28] <supersquish> bazsy :p
[07:26:33] <Motte> i am german mod
[07:26:39] <Bazsy> its in the "for admin" section
[07:26:49] <Bazsy> which is modded by me, thats why i can ask for hours LOL
[07:27:03] <12~admin> ok - if you can have a locked topic with a list of known bugs - confirmed bugs - and manage that, tehn that will really help me when i go to the forum
[07:27:28] <Gaara> oh admin can we have more planets
[07:27:29] <12~admin> i will then update your post, with action taken
[07:27:37] <12~admin> planets - more than 10? or more in universe?
[07:27:41] <Gaara> no
[07:27:45] <supersquish> more in the universe
[07:27:48] <Gaara> more out there to finbd
[07:27:50] <Gaara> find
[07:27:55] <Bazsy> i think they ment more in univers
[07:27:56] <Bazsy> e
[07:27:57] <12~admin> there are 10,000 now.
[07:28:04] <12~admin> thats 10 per top 1000 accounts.
[07:28:24] <12~admin> they should be a rare, 'fight for them' resource.
[07:28:34] <Kasket> My M/S pilots are lazy, they can't find any planets
[07:28:34] <Motte> would be boring
[07:28:38] <supersquish> indeeed... otherwise everyone will have 10 planets
[07:28:39] <12~admin> else everyone gets one, its not a battle :) -at least that is my thinking
[07:28:40] <Motte> if there would be too many
[07:29:05] <geisha> I dont think it would really make a difference if there were more
[07:29:15] <geisha> the top players would always have the best ones
[07:29:22] <Motte> tru
[07:29:22] <12~admin> i am looking at a couple planet updates - making hte battle for planets longer lived, and an ability to hide one, but more planets is not a solution to a problem, as i can see it
[07:29:25] <Motte> true*
[07:29:26] <geisha> ppl just dont have the balls to take them back ;)
[07:29:32] <Bazsy> admin: i will do a known bugs topic than... and i shall put links to their topics i guess?
[07:29:38] <Gaara> but there are those with weak or multi account that just go around taking then abandoning planet
[07:29:40] <Gaara> oh
[07:29:44] <Gaara> hide a planet
[07:29:45] <Gaara> yes
[07:29:45] <12~admin> or a short summary of hte bug
[07:29:52] <12~admin> enough i can find it
[07:29:58] <Bazsy> okay that will do
[07:30:24] <12~admin> for bugs: 1)bug desciption. 2)url and error message if any 3)steps to take to replicate the bug 4)results of bug as it stands.
[07:30:26] <Motte> admin
[07:30:33] <Motte> a question about that
[07:30:34] <Motte> (Test Feature, but working) - Give Market Supporter Bonus to Another (ID) for 75,600,000,000 Naquadah
[07:30:42] <Gaara> wow
[07:30:47] <Gaara> pricy
[07:30:52] <Motte> that is a damn expensive market supporter
[07:30:53] <Motte> or
[07:31:01] <Gaara> is it ss
[07:31:05] <Gaara> or 1/2 ss
[07:31:06] <12~admin> its market
[07:31:07] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> thats an expensive ppt
[07:31:09] <Gaara> oh
[07:31:10] <Gaara> lame
[07:31:12] <12~admin> yes -expensive ppt
[07:31:25] <12~admin> it'll likely not stay. was a trial
[07:31:38] * Teh (mailto:SGW_Guest1@GA-73CE35FF.range86-1 ... alplus.com) Quit (Connection reset by peer)
[07:31:38] <Gaara> could do it for full ss
[07:31:45] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> got some good feedback of it from teal'auc though
[07:32:24] <Motte> admin what about like 1 or 2 Market Trades more per week
[07:32:25] <12~admin> giving naq is the easier solution. timing harder though. maybe it stays, maybe not - not 100% decided.
[07:32:41] <Kasket> I have what I think is a trade broker bug. do you want it here or on the forum?
[07:32:43] <12~admin> if i can ever find a way to stop 'market trade trading' maybe.
[07:32:47] <geisha> I like the idea as long as you are still limited to 2 PPts a week
[07:32:49] <12~admin> kasket -forum
[07:32:54] <Kasket> k
[07:33:06] <12~admin> make sure you can repeat the bug -
[07:33:13] <Kasket> oh you can
[07:33:30] <12~admin> if its not repeatable, i cant say is a bug. ok .. good :)
[07:33:43] <12~admin> repeatable means i can find it
[07:33:55] <Bazsy> oh market i have one old suggestion which was mine:): "Give 15multiples / week, instead of 3 market turns with 5 multiples each" That would help the small guys...
[07:34:09] <12~admin> hmm
[07:34:23] <12~admin> psi - can you record that :)
[07:34:33] <Motte> hmmm but then how two use 2 ppts
[07:34:39] <supersquish> admin: what sort of things should we expect in the next wave of chaos in about 77 hours... as in are there many changes to the game for next wave or is it similar to now with the bugs fixed?
[07:34:39] <Bazsy> about the bugs, i know what u want... i will do what i can...:)
[07:34:46] <geisha> you would need 5 for 1 ppt
[07:34:46] <Motte> if it is all in one big trade
[07:34:53] <12~admin> i am not going to be able to look at the 'action items' here for at least 77 hours :)
[07:35:00] <Motte> wait nvm
[07:35:02] <Motte> read wrong
[07:35:18] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> yays notepad
[07:35:20] <12~admin> chaos - its all i am working on now
[07:35:37] <12~admin> there will be changes.
[07:35:43] <Motte> btw admin
[07:35:48] <12~admin> not major, but aimed at a more intuitive play.
[07:35:55] <Motte> .de is a clone/cop of chaos
[07:36:01] <12~admin> yes. for now
[07:36:02] <Motte> why not main?
[07:36:02] <Bazsy> could we get some hint about it?:D
[07:36:10] <Motte> as SGW
[07:36:28] <12~admin> at the time, chaos was coded better for translation
[07:36:36] <Motte> hmmm
[07:36:43] <Motte> i am on all 3
[07:36:49] <Motte> SGW , chaos as .de
[07:37:11] <Motte> no problem with translation them
[07:37:13] <12~admin> .de i will chat on later. when i have time to look at it.
[07:37:36] <12~admin> i am also hesitant at giving out all the code, since hte 'language' and hte code are all tied. but we can look to that later.
[07:37:50] <Motte> kk
[07:37:51] <12~admin> chaos - is there a current GOOD list of bugs?
[07:38:13] <12~admin> the forum is chaotic :)
[07:38:17] <Kasket> lol
[07:38:18] <supersquish> lol
[07:38:24] <Motte> lol
[07:38:25] <12~admin> and i dont know what is real, perceived, etc
[07:38:31] <Motte> so are the numbers and ammounts
[07:38:34] <Bazsy> i will try to get chaos mod here:)
[07:38:38] <geisha> that brings me to another topic...
[07:38:39] <Bazsy> maybe he can tell you
[07:38:42] <12~admin> k
[07:38:43] <supersquish> im here bazsy
[07:38:46] <Bazsy> oh
[07:38:47] <geisha> forum and game administration
[07:38:52] <Bazsy> didnt know u chaos too:)
[07:38:57] <geisha> how does the communication work?
[07:39:03] <12~admin> in what way?
[07:39:13] <Motte> just notcided the crapy ingame market in chaos
[07:39:15] <Motte> when i played
[07:39:26] <12~admin> ppl say 'fix market' but fix what?
[07:39:27] <geisha> well, it is sometimes somewhat confusing that the forum has its very own rules
[07:39:34] <supersquish> admin: there isnt a bug list like in the bugs section so would you like me to make a list of all the known bugs tonight for chaos too?
[07:39:43] <12~admin> please!
[07:39:53] <12~admin> sooner is better since i have to have them all fixed in 3days :)
[07:40:04] <12~admin> i know about very few real bugs.
[07:40:10] <Kasket> reset in 3?
[07:40:14] <12~admin> forum and game - run separately.
[07:40:18] <12~admin> 3 days. yes
[07:40:43] <geisha> I know they run seperately but the forums are still the official platform for the game community
[07:40:49] <Motte> meh i dont like chaos that much
[07:40:59] <Bazsy> i think we speaking about one particular rule
[07:41:09] <12~admin> motte - if you explain why, maybe i will listen ;)
[07:41:11] <supersquish> admin: i do not believe too many have been flagged but i shall make a list in a minute :)
[07:41:13] <geisha> no, several actually ;)
[07:41:17] <Kasket> I personally hate the forums. if I wanted to read spam I would check my junk mail.
[07:41:18] <12~admin> bazsy - not sure as i dont actively manage forums
[07:41:32] <Motte> i am not that huge fan of the reset
[07:41:41] <Motte> maybe i will start this wave
[07:41:46] <Motte> to play real
[07:41:47] <Bazsy> well the biggest issue at the moment is the ingame goods for real money issue
[07:41:50] <12~admin> if thats only reason, that is fine. but will not be 'fixed' in the next 2years :)
[07:41:56] <12~admin> ie reset
[07:41:58] <zesh> wow
[07:42:00] <zesh> 75 bill for
[07:42:04] <zesh> a ss
[07:42:16] <zesh> id use that
[07:42:17] <12~admin> ingame for $ - what is the problem there.
[07:42:18] <zesh> does it work
[07:42:19] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> i think zesh is behind us
[07:42:27] <zesh> i have a few friends
[07:42:30] <zesh> who otherwise
[07:42:32] <Bazsy> its not banned in the game as far as i know
[07:42:33] <zesh> wud lose intrest
[07:42:44] <zesh> and i can generate that kind of nair
[07:42:46] <12~admin> zesh - what are you referring to?
[07:42:46] <zesh> naq*
[07:42:47] <Motte> and chaos has just som to big numbers
[07:42:50] <zesh> the give ss
[07:42:50] <zesh> thing
[07:42:52] <Bazsy> but it is banned on the forums since a 2 days ago as i know... and that caused some trouble
[07:42:59] <zesh> does it work?
[07:43:00] <Motte> confusing sometimes
[07:43:01] <12~admin> what is banned?
[07:43:10] <geisha> well, I would just love to see all the forum rules and restrictions being checked with the game administration so it all makes more sense
[07:43:12] <12~admin> i am confused.
[07:43:19] <Bazsy> advertising ingame goods for money trades, and linking forums which allowing it
[07:43:44] <Motte> brb
[07:43:48] <12~admin> hold on. are we talking 'upgrade' on the site? black market? what?
[07:43:53] <12~admin> chaos main or forum?
[07:43:55] <Bazsy> black market
[07:43:56] <12~admin> confused.
[07:43:57] <Bazsy> main
[07:44:05] <Bazsy> well i will get it together:)
[07:44:06] <zesh> admin is the ss thing permanant?
[07:44:12] <geisha> people were selling resources for money
[07:44:19] <zesh> the test thingy
[07:44:24] <geisha> and that has now been banned from the forums
[07:44:25] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> i believe zesh is talking about the "buy market SS for someone else" and the others are talking about how the forum administration banned $ trades on the forums.
[07:44:26] <zesh> i might bo buy 2 or 3
[07:44:33] <zesh> yeh
[07:44:36] <zesh> Psi_Kiya_Trist is quick
[07:44:39] <zesh> ill go buy 2 or 3
[07:44:42] <zesh> now if it works
[07:44:44] <12~admin> its basicly PPT
[07:44:52] <zesh> so it doesnt work
[07:44:53] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> market SS only allows you to use the ingame market
[07:44:53] <zesh> :(
[07:45:01] <zesh> so its just market
[07:45:02] <zesh> not full
[07:45:08] <zesh> ah
[07:45:10] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> we covered that already :)
[07:45:13] <zesh> yeh
[07:45:13] <Bazsy> yes
[07:45:18] <zesh> i havent been reading
[07:45:19] <zesh> :(
[07:45:20] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> also, it says "market" in it, not "full"
[07:45:24] <Bazsy> admin: Geisha sumed it all
[07:45:26] <zesh> im sorry :P
[07:45:47] <Kasket> Talking about buying someone else SS or asking for it shouldn't be banned. the selling resources for personal gain I can understand. it hurts $$ that could be put into the game and support it.
[07:45:53] <zesh> is there any ideas of a new GUI admin
[07:46:10] <zesh> cos alot of games are now alot 'prettier'
[07:46:14] <zesh> taw atw etc
[07:46:27] <Kasket> buying ss for someone else still puts the $$ into the game
[07:46:45] <geisha> can we stick to one topic at a time? me = blonde
[07:46:49] <zesh> lol
[07:46:50] <geisha> easy to confuse
[07:47:14] <12~admin> Give PPT to Another (ID) for 75,600,000,000 Naquadah
[07:47:22] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> i think we lost Admin for a bit
[07:47:36] <12~admin> i updated the market test of ppt to another. to state explicitly ppt.
[07:47:47] <supersquish> :)
[07:48:10] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> ok, and then, we still have the whole forum rules debaticle
[07:48:12] <Bazsy> Closing that thing: We want to ask u to read the forum rules and take note if needed.
[07:48:33] <geisha> so, admin what is your opinion on selling ingame goods for $ ?
[07:48:38] <12~admin> on asking for $ - i do not object if someone wants SS and want to trade for it.
[07:48:55] <12~admin> ingame goods for $ - i hate it. i get too many complaints.
[07:48:59] <zesh> hmm
[07:49:00] <zesh> lol
[07:49:02] <zesh> id use that
[07:49:02] <Bazsy> :)
[07:49:04] <12~admin> but - i cannot stop it
[07:49:05] <zesh> now
[07:49:09] <geisha> well the problem I see is that the forum makes its own rules
[07:49:11] <zesh> admin does the market ss
[07:49:16] <zesh> use the other persons mts
[07:49:22] <geisha> that are absolutely unrelated to the game rules
[07:49:27] <zesh> if they already have it
[07:49:29] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> the Forums are trying to meet up with our friend admin here more often
[07:49:32] <zesh> and can they reject it etc
[07:49:36] <supersquish> admin: i have put up the list of bugs for chaos wave :) i'll keep it updated :)
[07:49:38] <geisha> and that's causing a lot of trouble
[07:50:08] <zesh> cos this could be useful against guerillas
[07:50:12] <12~admin> ppt to another - uses one of their PPT counts; does not use a MT
[07:50:24] <zesh> excellent
[07:50:26] <zesh> MUAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAH
[07:50:34] <supersquish> so in theory you could get a whole week of ppt?
[07:50:37] <geisha> nice
[07:50:43] <12~admin> no - in theory no.
[07:50:46] <12~admin> uses YOUR ppt count;
[07:51:00] <12~admin> YOUR = one who got ppt
[07:51:04] <supersquish> ah
[07:51:06] <geisha> good :)
[07:51:11] <zesh> ah
[07:51:12] <12~admin> i am still confused on the forum rule in question. what exactly si rule?
[07:51:23] <zesh> so
[07:51:26] <zesh> ok if i send a ppt
[07:51:28] <zesh> to x player
[07:51:29] <Bazsy> I will move to my next point :): We have a "Discussion on Enhancements (coming up)" thread on the forum... u used it more times in the past... Are u still planning to use it to announce planned enchancements, and see some discussion on them?
[07:51:31] <geisha> the rule is that you are no longer allowed to post $ trades
[07:51:33] * Psi_Kiya_Trist sets mode: +vvv geisha supersquish Bazsy
[07:51:35] <zesh> wud i lose my ppt
[07:51:40] <zesh> bonus or would they
[07:51:44] <zesh> i assume them
[07:51:48] <zesh> from what im learning
[07:51:58] <12~admin> bazsy - yes. if big change.
[07:52:10] <12~admin> zesh - no.
[07:52:20] <12~admin> zesh - they lose 1 ppt count.
[07:52:24] <zesh> good
[07:52:30] <zesh> and do they have the option of rejecting
[07:52:45] <+Bazsy> the rule is as follows: "19) (temp) No posting links or advertising resource markets on other forums. "
[07:52:48] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> accept donations applies
[07:52:51] <12~admin> geisha - you mean 'i will give xx naq for $$ ' ?
[07:53:02] <+geisha> yep
[07:53:06] <+geisha> or UU
[07:53:13] <12~admin> hm.
[07:53:18] <+Bazsy> which is in harmony with the market rule: "13. You are no longer permitted to sell any in game resources for real money on these forums. This means that no one will be allowed to post threads stating their intention to sell or buy in game goods for $$$."
[07:53:31] <12~admin> i am not decided on that. it does help me in further making clear i am not responsible for those trades.
[07:53:59] <+Bazsy> since its black market, you are not responcible anyways:D
[07:54:05] <12~admin> if its allowed on forums, it does imply its under the sgw responsiblity
[07:54:06] <+geisha> well if you make it a game rule that selling resources for $ is not allowed thats fine
[07:54:15] <12~admin> no - i cant
[07:54:19] <12~admin> cause i could not enforce it
[07:54:23] <+geisha> yes you can never really stop it
[07:54:28] <+geisha> I agree
[07:54:34] <+Bazsy> yes, geisha: i was thinking on it
[07:54:41] <12~admin> but having a rule that it cannot be advertized on the site - i am ok with that.
[07:54:45] <+Bazsy> adn it would make ppls flood the cheaters section LOL
[07:55:01] <Gaara> admin
[07:55:12] <12~admin> thats me.
[07:55:13] <Gaara> how do i try to get a nother name change
[07:55:21] <Gaara> i messed up on one
[07:55:26] <Gaara> and now im out
[07:55:32] <+supersquish> brb guys/... my internet is being annoying >.< and admin that post will be up in 2 seconds :p
[07:55:35] <Kasket> people still want to complain to someone when they get cheated. even if it was the black market = headache for ADMIN
[07:55:37] <Gaara> i screwed up
[07:55:40] <12~admin> 1) be careful when you use them. you are your name :) 2) email support@ and explain. they may give you another if its a good reason.
[07:55:58] <Gaara> ty
[07:56:00] <Motte> i am happy with my name
[07:56:07] <12~admin> lol.
[07:56:10] <Kasket> maybe add the definition of blackmarket to the forum. I bet 25% of the people have no idea what it means
[07:56:11] <Gaara> i spelled it wrong
[07:56:17] <12~admin> the black market - if i could - i'd ban it all. but i cannot.
[07:56:21] <Gaara> i was vary drunk
[07:56:37] <+geisha> lol no excuse :P
[07:56:41] <12~admin> lol. maybe i need a 'i am drunk' status - that acts like windows safe mode :)
[07:56:48] <12~admin> limits you do basic functions
[07:56:50] <Kasket> lol
[07:56:52] <+Bazsy> LOL
[07:56:53] <+geisha> oh that would be handy
[07:56:54] <Gaara> indeed
[07:56:55] <Motte> i am here drunk often enough and can controll me
[07:56:57] <+geisha> for a lot of us
[07:56:59] <+geisha> ;)
[07:57:03] <Motte> so i agree with geisha
[07:57:06] <Gaara> me not so much
[07:57:21] <12~admin> the $ for goods forum rule - psi - can you add that to a mod discussion point for next meeting.
[07:57:38] <Motte> [19:56:44] <admin> lol. maybe i need a 'i am drunk' status - that acts like windows safe mode :) <- lol would be funny
[07:57:42] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> two notes, yay
[07:57:42] <Gaara> yeah i mean its a game not a job
[07:57:50] <12~admin> i am willing to think more on the $/goods - but will not commit to any particular result.
[07:57:51] <+geisha> anyway, I would like to close the forum thing
[07:58:02] <+geisha> even though the game and the forum are seperate
[07:58:07] <+Bazsy> admin: 2 little bugs i have in mind:) 1: if u train uu, u always loose 1 uu no matter how much u trained:) 2: if someone has 1 planet with blank name, it cannot be spied...
[07:58:11] <+geisha> it is still the platform for the community
[07:58:24] <+geisha> and the game lives and dies with the community
[07:58:27] <12~admin> planets one i can fix pretty easy.
[07:58:37] <12~admin> i think its fixed going forward - but not if the planet was named before
[07:58:48] <+geisha> so I would love to see more communication between both...
[07:58:54] <12~admin> 'close the forum thing' ?
[07:58:57] <+Bazsy> yesyes
[07:59:23] <12~admin> psi and I have agreed to regular forum/admin meetings. we are just figuring out hte timing
[07:59:38] <+Bazsy> K close it...
[07:59:44] * +supersquish (mailto:squishie@living.in.azeroth.com) Quit (Ping timeout)
[07:59:44] <Kasket> any thoughts on adding an alliance search function to the main attack page?
[07:59:45] <+geisha> I think someone should tell you about all the forum rules so you can see how the forums for your game being ruled
[07:59:49] <12~admin> i dont understand 'close it'
[07:59:50] <Motte> forum/admin?
[08:00:00] <Motte> doesnt that means all forum mods?
[08:00:01] <+Bazsy> i mean close the forum issue, move on:)
[08:00:06] <12~admin> ah - yes.

[14:14:31] <Alpharius> Quick shower lildragon
[14:14:33] <admin> 2) i am hoping this session (hopefully 1st of many) will give a much more casual way to interact with the game admins (mostly me) -- where you can get high level questions/commments/suggestions into my brain :)
[14:14:47] <05+Rienna> Alpharius: it's cause he still stinks
[14:15:03] <+Nuto_vixen> they just wante dto know your hobbies and fave colour and such as I gathered....
[14:15:10] <+Tealauc> lol
[14:15:19] <05+Rienna> :o that's kinda stalkerish and creepy
[14:15:21] <quickshot84> no Nuto, you want to know :p
[14:15:23] <admin> i will admin my email response is lacking lately with updates in the pipe....
[14:15:29] <admin> admin=admint :)
[14:15:31] <07lildragon> admin?

[14:15:59] <admin> hobbies - i have many :) -mostly thought hobbies.
[14:16:03] <07lildragon> its alright (i hope), i dont want to even think how many emails you get a day :s
[14:16:18] <admin> support@ is admin sue. she is 1000% better than I
[14:16:33] <07lildragon> lol
[14:16:35] <admin> its just the code level ones, and more complex ones, I get.
[14:16:41] <12@Reality> Except that she didn't know that the forum was conencted to the game
[14:16:44] <admin> but even with those, i still get way too many.
[14:16:46] <05+Rienna> rofl
[14:16:53] <+Nuto_vixen> lol
[14:16:57] <+Nuto_vixen> ouch
[14:17:02] <05+Rienna> yea, ouch
[14:17:10] <admin> forum/game are different...different 'management' :)
[14:17:19] <+Nuto_vixen> clearly
[14:17:20] <12@Reality> hehe, indeed
[14:17:25] <admin> but a bridge, certianly.
[14:17:33] <quickshot84> isnt forum/game/irc all different management :p
[14:17:37] <admin> yes
[14:18:00] <admin> but since they all are under the sgw banner, they have to have standards ;)
[14:18:00] <05+Rienna> could all do with a bit more interaction between the 3 managements, though
[14:18:05] <07lildragon> irc is whitey, game is admin, and forums is Psi_Kiya_Trist

[14:18:06] <07lildragon> i think
[14:18:19] <admin> we have a plan for regular meetings starting Feb
[14:18:24] <admin> between forum/game admin
[14:18:27] <07lildragon> ohhh, nice :)
[14:18:31] <admin> its new :)
[14:18:35] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> we should get whitey in on that, if we could
[14:18:38] <admin> before it was casual - this will be scheduled
[14:18:39] <quickshot84> umm
[14:18:44] <quickshot84> should i call whitey to wake him up :S?
[14:18:53] <JOS> go for it
[14:18:55] <Alpharius> He normally wakes up around 4ish :S
[14:18:56] <05+Rienna> :o he's sleeping? it's mid-day there!
[14:18:56] <07lildragon> lol
[14:18:59] <12@Reality> He sleeps during the day, if at all, anyways
[14:19:01] <admin> lets get the 1st one with forum/game done 1st - then we can see about chat integration
[14:19:09] <SGW_Guest431> *waves*
[14:19:20] <+Nuto_vixen> halt! who goes there?
[14:19:24] * lildragon waves to SGW_Guest431
[14:19:25] <05+Rienna> lol
[14:19:27] <admin> point is -there will be better forum/game admin interaction
[14:19:29] <05+Rienna> I was just thinking that, Nuto
[14:19:33] * Jack_White (mailto:martin.ekr@GA-FAE1495A.cruzio.com) has joined #theplace
[14:19:36] <05+Rienna> that's needed, admin
[14:19:40] <+Nuto_vixen> agreed
[14:19:45] <admin> yup. and why its in the works.
[14:19:51] <admin> timing is all thats left.
[14:19:55] <Jack_White> what is needed?
[14:19:57] <05+Rienna> it's hard being a mod on the forum, cause they assume you can talk to game admin and we can't.
[14:20:03] <07lildragon> timing is allways the problem :s
[14:20:03] <12@Reality> You not to be late, Jack ;)

[14:20:36] <quickshot84> ishy.. dont spam the room

[14:21:39] <07lildragon> means i have to actualy work
[14:21:42] <12@Reality> But I have no real specifics

[14:22:23] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> regarding that, i might have evidence that they did just stumble accross that.
[14:22:29] <12~admin> wacky - did youemail support@ ? i dont knwo who you are
[14:22:32] <Arashi-AFK> cool.. it really is admin *faints*
[14:22:33] <+Tealauc> i always was against innocent people suffering.. so if that canbe fixed, i'd be grateful...
[14:22:40] <wacky> i am disturbed_one
[14:22:42] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> i've been meaning to tell you later.

[14:22:54] <wacky> i sent u urget message
[14:23:02] <wacky> urgent
[14:23:03] <12~admin> ok - it will get looked at wacky.

[14:23:08] <+Nuto_vixen> "urgent"
[14:23:09] <+Nuto_vixen> lol
[14:23:14] <wacky> ;)
[14:23:20] <12~admin> with chaos/ascension etc its tough now
[14:23:21] <Arashi-AFK> I have a question about ascension.. "IS the command stars going to change to 1k x power" cause that seems a bit overkill
[14:23:28] <+Nuto_vixen> you need a "totally a NOW emegerncy" emai address too :p
[14:23:29] <Jack_White> putting it in CAPS doesn't mean urgent wacky :P
[14:23:31] <12~admin> as of now - yes. 1000x
[14:23:32] <05+Rienna> guys take a deep breath. too many people shouting issues at once and they'll all end up over looked.
[14:23:38] <quickshot84> lol Nuto
[14:23:40] <wacky> i raided my 2 mil uu back but still lost all my weps and naq
[14:23:50] <Arashi-AFK> OUCH.. gonna have to really work on it now
[14:24:03] <12~admin> still limited to army contribution though
[14:24:15] <Arashi-AFK> admin: ah.. cool...
[14:24:16] <Jack_White> are we talking superweapon here?
[14:24:24] <12~admin> command star
[14:24:27] <Jack_White> ah
[14:24:51] <wacky> can i be added to the ascended forums too?
[14:25:12] <12~admin> on email - when i give another address, it gets sent to along with each other address... if anyone does that (sends to all) it likely gets ignored by everyone, as they assume someone else will do it
[14:25:13] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> wacky, i'll take care of that later, PM me on forums
[14:25:19] <wacky> i did
[14:25:23] <wacky> months ago
[14:25:32] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> ok, but now, i'm expecting it.
[14:25:35] <wacky> lol

[14:26:00] <Alpharius> lol
[14:26:05] <10Ferra> lol
[14:26:09] <+Nuto_vixen> I have a suggestion, can we get rid of the whole entire planets concept?
[14:26:10] <05+Rienna> what about ppt, quicky?
[14:26:10] <+Tealauc> quickshow, beware me hungry for your spies ;p
[14:26:20] <quickshot84> XD
[14:26:20] <05+Rienna> :o no no! I like planets!
[14:26:24] <Jack_White> What do you mean Nuto?[
[14:26:26] * +Rienna clings to her planetsand cries
[14:26:26] <Jack_White> Main?
[14:26:29] * Kiz (mailto:SGW_Guest8@GA-29CA7348.vic.bigpond.net.au) Quit (Quit: Kiz)
[14:26:30] <+Nuto_vixen> they are reduntant and disposable
[14:26:49] <Jack_White> They are usually big lumps of mass with gravitational fields
[14:26:51] <+Nuto_vixen> you get one, you lose one, you get one you lose one you get one you lose one you get one you lose one
[14:26:52] <+Tealauc> planets... what are planets.. mine tend to disappear so quick xD
[14:27:03] <+Nuto_vixen> etc etc...
[14:27:03] <wacky> lol
[14:27:04] <12~admin> planets may get 2 more updates - 1)12hours of cannot drop after conquer. 2) a possible dimensional shift (cloak) for a time period.
[14:27:09] <05+Rienna> I tend to keep mine, except when Tealauc is ascending ;)
[14:27:16] <+Tealauc> psshhht
[14:27:18] <+Tealauc> ;)
[14:27:20] <Jack_White> heh
[14:27:31] <12~admin> but planets stay :)
[14:27:39] <05+Rienna> :D:D
[14:27:42] <10Ferra> hmmm cloaking a planet sounds fun
[14:27:43] * +Rienna goes to sink more naq into her planets
[14:27:46] <Arashi-AFK> admin: on planets, it'd be nice if that 12 "cannot drop after conquer" if they didn't disappear when people "ascended"... people are using ascension to cover their tracks
[14:27:50] <Jack_White> any timeline on when we will see the ascension go from beta to live with descension?
[14:27:52] <+Nuto_vixen> how aboiut some code stopping people from naming their planets stupid things like "selling naq for $$$"
[14:28:08] <07lildragon> just remove $ from the strings
[14:28:11] <07lildragon> would work
[14:28:13] <07lildragon> :k
[14:28:22] <quickshot84> then they'ed just write crash
[14:28:23] <quickshot84> erm
[14:28:24] <quickshot84> cash*
[14:28:27] <Alpharius> I second Arashi-AFK's comment about ascending covering tracks
[14:28:27] <07lildragon> well
[14:28:28] <07lildragon> cash to
[14:28:29] <07lildragon> ;p;
[14:28:31] <07lildragon> lol
[14:28:39] <12~admin> you mean ascend simply keeps battle logs?
[14:28:40] <Alpharius> I know i was massed to nothing and the person ascended right after so there was no record of it
[14:28:46] <12~admin> opposed to erase as now?
[14:28:49] <05+Rienna> yes, admin
[14:28:50] <Alpharius> yeah
[14:28:50] <05+Rienna> please?
[14:28:51] <+Nuto_vixen> or the word cash
[14:28:57] <quickshot84> lol Nuto
[14:28:58] <05+Rienna> gets rid of cowards able to mass then ascend too
[14:29:01] <quickshot84> <censorship>
[14:29:05] <12~admin> psi - can you add that to notes --ascend not lose logs
[14:29:10] <Arashi-AFK> actually I don't mind if they get erased.. just leave "planet related logs"
[14:29:14] <Arashi-AFK> as that's the big issue
[14:29:19] <12~admin> k.
[14:29:23] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> note 3
[14:29:25] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> got it :)
[14:29:26] <+Tealauc> lol, i once massed one guy before ascension, was so in hurry... *blushes* =p
[14:29:30] <12~admin> maybe i have to add a planet beacon too - i thought of doing it before.
[14:29:39] <+Nuto_vixen> beacon?
[14:29:40] <Jack_White> to do what?
[14:29:45] <12~admin> find it
[14:29:49] <wacky> to track it
[14:29:49] <07lildragon> to keep track of planets i would think
[14:29:50] <Alpharius> yeah
[14:29:50] <Jack_White> ah
[14:29:53] <wacky> after its stolen
[14:29:55] <Alpharius> Awesome idea
[14:30:00] <05+Rienna> oh, so if it moves hands too fast you can trace it? good idea
[14:30:01] <Silence> yup agreed
[14:30:07] <quickshot84> actually i second Nuto's suggestion - about planet names, they do need to be censored because of some of the language people name them as
[14:30:08] <+Tealauc> heh, bye bye planet thieves =p
[14:30:10] <Jack_White> that could put ablaze som interesting wars :D
[14:30:12] <07lildragon> i suggested similar before, eg on the battle logs: planet stolen (currently held by :XYZ)
[14:30:13] <12~admin> not cheap though - and 'one use only per beacon'
[14:30:14] <05+Rienna> gets rid of them god damned planet theives
[14:30:17] <07lildragon> hmm
[14:30:34] <05+Rienna> I like that idea, admin
[14:30:42] <wacky> me too
[14:30:43] <12~admin> ok - planet summary - more work will go into planets, giving more flexibility. but they stay.
[14:30:55] <Jack_White> w00t
[14:30:56] <Arashi-AFK> I know this is a long shot and it would be a WAY future idea, but maybe have it so that "spies" can have another type of mission (information gathering = view your targets logs) <-- would be something like your beacon for planets
[14:30:59] * Psi_Kiya_Trist sets mode: +v Zeon
[14:31:00] <07lildragon> planets could be good, atm their an anoyance, but they need work
[14:31:01] <+Nuto_vixen> planets have never been cheap though
[14:31:02] <12~admin> any other hot topics ppl wanted to make sure i had top of mind?
[14:31:02] <Jack_White> now if i only had some planets
[14:31:08] <+Nuto_vixen> thats why alot of people don't bother with them anymore
[14:31:19] <+Tealauc> i want more things to destroy... not just defence and spies... ;) so i can kill more :P
[14:31:27] <07lildragon> lmao Tealauc, trust you :P
[14:31:28] <Jack_White> descension please
[14:31:29] <10Ferra> lol
[14:31:30] <12~admin> jackwhite - likely a week-2week for ascension to live.
[14:31:35] <Jack_White> ok
[14:31:39] <12~admin> descension? what about it.
[14:31:40] <wacky> need to kill assasins
[14:31:45] <07lildragon> hmmm
[14:31:46] <Jack_White> think there will be anymore changes about it?
[14:31:52] <05+Rienna> admin: can you give a final ruling on the selling of game resources for cash? you said excess before, but what is excess?
[14:31:54] <07lildragon> actualy, yes, killing assasins would be good
[14:32:19] <quickshot84> we really need to slow down in here guys... keep it to one question at a time
[14:32:28] <12~admin> rienna - not allowed to advertize it on game forums, but i cannot stop it, so i will not make it a bannable offense.
[14:32:32] <Jack_White> no it would not, assasins are the hunters, it takes away the point to make them the pray
[14:32:36] <05+Rienna> alright, thanks
[14:32:46] <Jack_White> prey*
[14:32:49] <Arashi-AFK> I know they were different for a reason.. but yes.. killing assassins would be nice.. I personally like the method ascension uses... assassin missions, spy missions
[14:32:53] <+Nuto_vixen> OUR game forums, or game forums in general?
[14:32:57] <+Nuto_vixen> becaus ethere are many...
[14:33:08] <+Nuto_vixen> and we are copping alot of flack for this issue right now
[14:33:09] <Jack_White> the official i would assume
[14:33:11] <12~admin> ours. i cannot make rules on other peoples forums :)
[14:33:12] <+Nuto_vixen> and by we, I mean me
[14:33:12] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> ours i think
[14:33:31] <Alpharius> Oh yeah i had this issue with this really mean market mod...

[14:34:26] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> hehe, silleh questions
[14:34:29] <12~admin> i like it as is. only addition is if you sell it, you get 12hours ppt
[14:34:42] <+Tealauc> >_<
[14:34:49] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> and jenny hates ppt
[14:34:50] <Jack_White> so, 5% wacked, all weapons gone and 10% gets put into guided correct?

[14:35:14] <Jack_White> sounds good
[14:35:16] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> slapping me for being honest?
[14:35:25] <Jack_White> love the work your putting into this :)
[14:35:29] <quickshot84> Psi_Kiya_Trist - that means she loves PPT
[14:35:35] <+Tealauc> grrr... :P
[14:35:36] <12~admin> thank you. it should make it veyr interesting :)
[14:35:47] <12~admin> tealauc -we're talking ascension on the ppt thingy
[14:35:52] <Alpharius> If you have the chance of writing the truth or the legend psi, always choose the legend :p
[14:35:54] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> ok, enough about jenny and her love(or lack thereof) of ppt
[14:36:06] <+Tealauc> no ppt on ascension, no no no :P
[14:36:10] <Arashi-AFK> admin: can CoP pitch into a pot to buy a 1 month PPT (unbreakable) for Tealauc... she really wants it
[14:36:12] <Jack_White> hope so, haven't been able to so much on the beta after i sassed my alliance mates a bit, they have kept me constantly descended :P
[14:36:23] <quickshot84> LMAO Arashi-AFK!

[14:36:43] * +Tealauc adds another name on her massing list...
[14:36:43] <12~admin> ok - we've covered forum / gameadmin meetings; planets; ascended updates; support@ or urgent@ for email ; any other topics ppl want brought up?
[14:36:48] <07lildragon> Tealauc.... think of the naq.. and the strike at the end you could buy to use with massing :P
[14:37:07] <+Nuto_vixen> game unbalance..
[14:37:09] <Alpharius> With decension, will it do nothing but put the larger players further ahead of smaller players or will it be limited to rank ranges
[14:37:14] <05+Rienna> yea, I'm with nuto, game imbalance
[14:37:15] <12~admin> explain nuto
[14:37:17] <+Nuto_vixen> how about we make power limits for alliances
[14:37:27] <Jack_White> what do you mean limits?
[14:37:29] <10Ferra> bod idea
[14:37:31] <10Ferra> bad*
[14:37:34] <05+Rienna> I was thinking for bigger players, make it a bit easier for newbies to catch up
[14:37:36] <+Tealauc> lol, limits, more limits will only drive people away
[14:37:36] <+Nuto_vixen> its counter productive for the game to have evry single massive player in the same alliance
[14:37:44] <12~admin> alpha - limited + rank mod. check out hte dev server to see how it works. (ascended)
[14:37:46] <07lildragon> i have to agree wtih Nuto_vixen
[14:37:54] <Bastion> Admin - I'm assuming that you covered this already, but what is wrong with Commander Rankings, and what can be done about it?
[14:37:56] <07lildragon> but if we make them split up
[14:37:59] <+Nuto_vixen> teal'auc, I'm sure you would agree if you werne't in a massive power hogging alliance
[14:38:00] <07lildragon> we will have omega - 1
[14:38:03] <07lildragon> and omega - 2
[14:38:05] <07lildragon> and omega ect
[14:38:10] <quickshot84> lol lildragon
[14:38:13] <Jack_White> ^^
[14:38:13] <+Nuto_vixen> thats all the game really is now
[14:38:19] <Arashi-AFK> admin: alliances, I haven't been a alliance leader in a while, so I don't know it's setup currently, but is it possible to have it so alliance leaders can have "Alliance Peace/War/Netural" that affects members settings
[14:38:21] <+Nuto_vixen> you're eithe romega, omegas friend, or you're history
[14:38:25] <+Tealauc> Nuto, i don't really care for power ;)
[14:38:31] <Arashi-AFK> or that overrides their settings
[14:38:37] <+Nuto_vixen> lmao, yeah right5
[14:38:38] <07lildragon> Tealauc, think of it this way, the biggest massing targets are the ones you cant hit atm, cos your all alied
[14:38:41] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> wow, 3 questions
[14:38:46] <+Nuto_vixen> hoin a noob alliance then soee how far you get ;)
[14:38:55] <+Nuto_vixen> join*

[14:39:07] <12~admin> ok - i dont know whats wrong with commander ranks.
[14:39:08] [Cyanide-x]12«11Naddiseo9 in 11#ww29 at 112:39:pm12» 4 -  "My code sucks eh goodie ?"
[14:39:18] <12~admin> imbalance was not really explained
[14:39:32] <07lildragon> hmm
[14:39:43] <07lildragon> we somehow moved onto a anti/for CoP discussion
[14:39:44] <07lildragon> :s
[14:39:48] <12~admin> someone wants alliances to act like commanders for peace/war? whats wrong with alliance peace/war?
[14:39:50] <07lildragon> which is probably a bad idea
[14:39:52] <+Tealauc> as expected.. sigh
[14:40:02] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> yes? what did you expect of me jenny?
[14:40:27] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> oh right. maybe i shouldn't beep on "sigh" >_>
[14:40:32] <Alpharius> lol
[14:40:34] <05+Rienna> admin, is there a way we can get it so that we can set entire alliances to peace? say if one alliance has a NAP with another, instead of clicking peace with every member of the other alliance, a button that sets the entire allaince to peace?
[14:40:34] <+Tealauc> LOL
[14:40:40] <Arashi-AFK> admin: right now there is alliance wars.. but what I'm saying is have a setting to allow for something like commanders "total peace, total war, total neutral" or something like that
[14:40:45] <12~admin> i do want to do more w/ alliances - a central alliance page that is useful. but that will not be tomorrow :)
[14:41:06] <Jack_White> let's leave individual alliances and players out of the discussions
[14:41:08] <12~admin> arashi - too many members ... way it is coded now, that will not work.
[14:41:09] <05+Rienna> yea, arashi, that's what I was getting at too ;)
[14:41:22] * Arashi-AFK is now known as Arashi
[14:41:38] <12~admin> like i say -if i make a better alliance members page - that should help.
[14:41:39] <JOS> admin: can something be done about the market? the "smart market" update was ok, but it's stuffed the smaller players
[14:41:40] * Arashi is back from -(Sinus cold almost gone... time for a little more hibernating...)- gone for 15hrs 7mins 23secs left at 02:34am -7H-7o-7m-7e-7r-15S-15c-15r-15i-15p-15t-
[14:41:45] <Arashi> admin: cool
[14:41:46] <+Nuto_vixen> its not about being anti-anyone, but the truth is the game stopped being fun when we all stepped back and realized that some people CANT be beaten, period.
[14:42:07] <+Nuto_vixen> its force of habit that we still play, not because we have convincved ourselves we can beat them
[14:42:21] <12~admin> market - someone suggested 15 multiple limit (not 3x max(5) ) -- i like this for helping little players
[14:42:22] <05+Rienna> that's not really a game prob, though, nuto, that's a player problem
[14:42:29] <quickshot84> guys - slow down the talk so admin can answer pervious questions and then yours
[14:42:30] <07lildragon> the best war i wanna see atm, is DD Vs DDE Vs Omega
[14:42:41] <+Nuto_vixen> its a game problem when you cant beat someone
[14:42:44] <07lildragon> which i think every one will agree would be nice and big and fun :P
[14:42:45] <+Nuto_vixen> because the game wont let you
[14:42:56] <JOS> admin: sounds good, but the prices are a killer for the small players atm
[14:42:56] <Jack_White> lildragon - wouldn't happen though
[14:43:01] <12~admin> nuto - you are aware of hte unit limit/plague -yes?
[14:43:04] <+Nuto_vixen> its about the power balanace
[14:43:18] <+Nuto_vixen> yes, but its not really doing much in the way of supressing power
[14:43:21] <+Nuto_vixen> just killing troops
[14:43:31] <12~admin> jos - prices are 2way - you can sell or buy. trick is to do the right one based on prices
[14:43:31] <05+Rienna> admin, that doesn't really limit players. they just hold uu with other players. like a uu bank.
[14:43:32] <12@Reality> A market would work better with a formula that I made myself and suggested - it is also just like real life...
[14:43:33] <+Nuto_vixen> if you have spy 35 and everyone else has 30....
[14:43:43] <07lildragon> hmmm
[14:43:50] <07lildragon> plauge, i have some ideas on it
[14:43:51] <Jack_White> well, when you get to 100 mill army size, how would you feel about someone coming along saying that what you have worked so hard to get is to much and stripping it away?
[14:43:57] <07lildragon> i might put them down on paper at one point
[14:44:25] <12@Reality> -brb-
[14:44:26] <+Nuto_vixen> I think there needs to be a way to destroy anyone and everyone, or the rich just get richer
[14:44:29] <12~admin> i like ideas for 'fixing' opposed to just statements of 'its broken' --but most of the time, there are facets that are not considered. even in the good dieas
[14:44:49] <Arashi> admin: for the market idea, I thought of a way that might help the smaller players, but I have no idea how difficult it'd be: have it so that the "cost" per multiple is based on the account buying, but make it so they can't trade anything they get from the market for "N" days to someone else
[14:44:54] <12~admin> jack - 100mil is not hte hard limit. it just gets harder to rise over that. ie -giving others a chance to move quicker.
[14:45:20] <07lildragon> atm the problem is that there are a lot of people at 10mil and under
[14:45:26] <07lildragon> mostly under 5mil even
[14:45:27] <05+Rienna> Arashi: kill the idea of selling mt's and I'll mass you ;)
[14:45:30] <+Nuto_vixen> once an alliance reaches a certain power, there aren't allowed to have any other sjoin
[14:45:33] <07lildragon> and catching up to 100mil is a pain
[14:45:41] <Jack_White> i know, but i was using it as an example because it is incredibly hard to get there
[14:45:48] <07lildragon> hmmm
[14:45:49] <Arashi> Rienna: it's not killing it.. it's delaying it
[14:45:54] <05+Rienna> pfft
[14:45:57] <05+Rienna> I'll still mass you ;)


Again, see next post, i broke the forums, again. >.<

meet 2 (part 2) wrote:14:46:03] <Arashi> that way if you still want to sell you have to "sit" on the resources for a time
[14:46:07] <07lildragon> if admin was to do what Nuto_vixen suggested, make it a limit of say the top 20 alliances
[14:46:10] <07lildragon> or top 10
[14:46:10] <wacky> cat fight
[14:46:11] <12~admin> arashi - market price has to be same for all.
[14:46:14] <07lildragon> not say 1tril power
[14:46:28] <Arashi> admin: ok.. heh..
[14:46:30] <+Nuto_vixen> well, there are only about 10 or less alliances that would be effected
[14:46:32] <Alpharius> Its true, the greatest honest flaw in a game with no resets is that there's a bell curve of players and all the ones on the right hand side are all on the same side
[14:46:35] <12~admin> arashi -because i cannot realisticly stop 'trading market turns'
[14:46:57] <07lildragon> Nuto_vixen, even if you stop 10 or so alliances, you have to keep in mind that the game will/is growing
[14:47:01] <Arashi> admin: well I was thinking you didn't have to stop trading MT's, but make it so that people could litterally trade MT's
[14:47:06] <Arashi> like we do AT, UU, Naq
[14:47:06] <12~admin> on alliances - its almost a fictiscious label.
[14:47:11] <+Nuto_vixen> exactly, but atleast everyone can catch up
[14:47:16] <07lildragon> what happens when there are 30 alliances at 1tril power?
[14:47:16] <12~admin> 10 'smaller' alliances can act as one
[14:47:26] <Arashi> just make it so that each account if they buy their OWN mt, they can't sell those resources until next market reset
[14:47:27] <+Nuto_vixen> can
[14:47:28] <+Nuto_vixen> dont
[14:47:37] <07lildragon> and omega has 40 members at total of 4tril?
[14:47:41] <12~admin> arashi - not that easy.
[14:47:43] <07lildragon> you havnt "stoped" them growing
[14:47:58] <Arashi> admin: I know.. that's why I was only suggesting the idea, I'm not a coder, so I have no idea how hard that would be
[14:48:05] <Jack_White> a suggestion on how to make it "easier" would have been to make it somewhat more similar to rpg's by making it exponentially harder to grow as you get bigger
[14:48:10] * samsalot (mailto:samsalot@GA-E2AE8FE1.dsl.snfc21.sbcglobal.net) Quit (Quit: samsalot)
[14:48:23] <07lildragon> hmm, UP is like that Jack_White... but its not enough
[14:48:35] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> income offsets cost
[14:48:40] <07lildragon> the only way i could see of doing that, is making UP price exponential
[14:48:49] <+Nuto_vixen> we could make it so the more troops you have, the LESS income you are getting
[14:48:49] <12~admin> ok -whats the alliance issue? exactly? or is it accounts too powerful? and has anyone hit hte 100mil unit limit? see what happens?
[14:48:50] <07lildragon> which would cause a lot of upsets if admin did that out of the blue now
[14:48:50] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> once you cross the 10 mil thresshold, most people i know grow easily
[14:48:53] <+Nuto_vixen> in stead of the other way around
[14:48:53] <+Nuto_vixen> lol
[14:48:56] <Arashi> admin: would it be possible to make it so that MT's can be traded, like other resources?
[14:49:01] <Alpharius> Tax based off army size or some sort of upkeep :D
[14:49:09] <Alpharius> something to slow growth down
[14:49:11] <07lildragon> admin, at least 3 i can think of are dodging around the 100mil limit
[14:49:17] <Alpharius> or to decide on having a larger army size is worth it
[14:49:20] <12~admin> arashi -no. if i could stop MT trading, i would.
[14:49:20] <07lildragon> and at least 1 complains about the messages every turn :P
[14:49:33] <+Nuto_vixen> Arashi, that would create mayhem in the ingame markets
[14:49:44] <05+Rienna> admin a couple people have hit the 100 unit limit
[14:49:47] <+Nuto_vixen> admin, I can try and stop iot on the forums
[14:49:48] <07lildragon> iirc legolass, corkscrew and STI
[14:49:52] <07lildragon> all in one alliance
[14:49:57] <Jack_White> reborn
[14:49:58] <07lildragon> which is what Nuto_vixen is complaining about
[14:50:03] <05+Rienna> one I know of has made his up so that the still gets more uu a day then gets killed
[14:50:03] <+Tealauc> Nuto, no more censorship on BM, please... <_<
[14:50:05] <07lildragon> reborn aswell? never heard of him :s
[14:50:12] <05+Rienna> he's still growing above 100 mill unit size
[14:50:20] <07lildragon> so is legolass Rienna
[14:50:21] <12~admin> rienna -which is ok.
[14:50:22] <+Nuto_vixen> its a game
[14:50:24] <+Nuto_vixen> there are rules
[14:50:25] <+Nuto_vixen> deal with it
[14:50:26] <10Ferra> its not hard to stay above the 100mill limit all you need is a nice UP
[14:50:30] <Jack_White> reborn was the first one to make it to 100 mill
[14:50:30] <07lildragon> hes the one complaining about the message every turn
[14:50:45] <12~admin> 'delete all from this user'
[14:50:50] <+Nuto_vixen> lol
[14:51:03] <07lildragon> lol
[14:51:06] <quickshot84> 48msgs a day would get annoying tho
[14:51:15] <quickshot84> "oo new msg...oh wait... -.-"
[14:51:16] <07lildragon> i didnt say i was complaining :P
[14:51:16] <+Tealauc> lol, i never delete my messages
[14:51:17] <12~admin> easy to separate/delete
[14:51:28] <Arashi> admin: I am a long ways from that.. but maybe a "digest" version of that message for those "large" players
[14:51:54] <12~admin> i'll wait till at least 5 players are affected ;)
[14:52:03] <12~admin> till then they live with it :)

[14:52:13] <05+Rienna> what, we're at 4 now?
[14:52:27] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> reborn, sinister, mojo rising, S T I, legoless, and corkscrew
[14:52:28] <+Nuto_vixen> and who are those players again?
[14:52:32] <+Nuto_vixen> and which alliance are they in again?
[14:52:33] <+Nuto_vixen> lol
[14:52:34] * @Reality (mailto:iasoncorpu@GA-3955E3CD.dsl.bell.ca) Quit (Ping timeout)
[14:52:36] <05+Rienna> okay. 6 then
[14:52:40] <12~admin> ok - honestly - 'catching big players' -- the ceiling is high (100mil) but that DOES slow them down compared to the <100mil accounts. is this not a viable (i did not say easy) solution?
[14:52:43] <Munchy98> metal has been skimming it also
[14:52:55] <Jack_White> sinister and mojo are both DD
[14:53:05] <+Nuto_vixen> time dialtion fields
[14:53:08] <+Nuto_vixen> stopping growth
[14:53:11] <+Nuto_vixen> slowing it*
[14:53:22] <05+Rienna> nice, nuto
[14:53:25] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> nuto just wants to see them stop. i see how it is :-p
[14:53:42] <05+Rienna> no, I like that idea too. perhaps the reverse for really small accounts
[14:53:42] <+Tealauc> so for hard work you basically want people to suffer instead of being rewarded... kind of demotivating, Nuto
[14:53:44] <+Nuto_vixen> when you get to a certain amount of troops, your income slows, your UP slows and your realm slows down
[14:53:45] <12~admin> you are not hte one that gets the complaints when i limit anything, though
[14:53:50] <05+Rienna> like a cone, where some realms move faster than others
[14:54:04] <+Nuto_vixen> no Teal'auc, its trying to give the smaller alliances and players a chance
[14:54:17] <12~admin> a lot -vocal minority or not i am not sure - feel the limits are bad.
[14:54:24] <+Tealauc> no, it is demotivating, no matter how you see it.
[14:54:25] <12~admin> its a fine line
[14:54:30] <07lildragon> limits are bad generaly
[14:54:35] <07lildragon> it should be about slowing the top
[14:54:38] <12~admin> because -yes -if you work hard, you should not be overly punished. other games call it 'nerfing' an account
[14:54:38] <07lildragon> and speeding the bottom
[14:54:43] <10Ferra> some limits are bad....
[14:54:43] <07lildragon> if that makes sense
[14:54:51] <Alpharius> Thats the problem with no resets
[14:54:54] <+Nuto_vixen> not everyone has the luxury of having 40 massive players backing them up Teal'auc, take a step back
[14:54:57] <12~admin> i would rather speed bottom, than slow top :)
[14:54:58] <Arashi> limiting people like that would just get them to be more amiable to selling "excess" resources to stay just outside of that limit
[14:55:08] <+Nuto_vixen> isn't that tha same things admin?
[14:55:09] <Munchy98> I agree with admin on that
[14:55:12] <+Tealauc> Nuto, i never hide behind my alliance, so keep your mouth shut, thanks
[14:55:19] <+Nuto_vixen> yeah right
[14:55:21] <07lildragon> same thing admin
[14:55:22] <07lildragon> :P
[14:55:27] <Alpharius> Here's the idea to fix it
[14:55:30] <Munchy98> not exactly
[14:55:32] <12~admin> its not. adding to player A is not same as removing from B
[14:55:39] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> can we limit fighting here, i'll start kicking
[14:55:44] <Alpharius> Alliances of certain power only being able to hit other allieances of certain power
[14:55:45] <Munchy98> taking away raiding for players above 75 mil was a good step
[14:55:48] <Jack_White> Nuto, they don't just hand out naq to those in their alliance that aren't past 20 or 30 mill for that matter, i know that all in omega works hard to get to where they are
[14:55:50] <07lildragon> possibly make miners/uu make less naq proportionaly the less you have compared to the top player
[14:55:51] <Alpharius> Its fair
[14:55:52] <+Nuto_vixen> its not about removing, its about slowing
[14:55:52] <07lildragon> or something
[14:55:56] <Munchy98> and fixing the broker bugs also did something

[14:56:27] <Alpharius> Just a thought but with some work could fix the congestion
[14:56:40] <Alpharius> and pose a viable alternative to not being in an alliance
[14:56:53] <+Nuto_vixen> I'm sure there isn't a quick fix for it, but its become an issue
[14:57:02] <07lildragon> i have to agree, a bonus to not being in an alliance
[14:57:07] <12~admin> alpha - congestion? what alternative? i missed the proposal
[14:57:10] <07lildragon> give lone dogs a chance
[14:57:10] <05+Rienna> a lone wolf bonus?
[14:57:11] <+Nuto_vixen> people are just sick of making threads about it because there is nothing being done
[14:57:26] <07lildragon> although that could lead to "unofficial" alliances :s
[14:57:32] <Alpharius> @ Admin: <Alpharius> Alliances of certain power only being able to hit other allieances of certain power
[14:57:33] <05+Rienna> true
[14:57:38] <+Nuto_vixen> I could see that being abused
[14:57:40] <Alpharius> It stops congestions at that range
[14:57:48] <Alpharius> You can only hit people from your area of the bell curve
[14:57:55] <12~admin> hit limit was tried bofore - failed hard.
[14:58:03] <+Nuto_vixen> I remmeber that

[14:58:08] <+Nuto_vixen> it sucked
[14:58:10] <12~admin> help officers; help alliance; run&hide tactics by rank drop; etc
[14:58:11] <07lildragon> hmmm, i they are talking about alliances this time
[14:58:11] <07lildragon> =/
[14:58:12] <10Ferra> umm let me think
[14:58:15] <07lildragon> could be differenct
[14:58:21] <07lildragon> as in, in alliance wars
[14:58:21] <+Tealauc> please no hit limits... i hated them when i was "small" and i'd hate them now as well.
[14:58:23] <12~admin> alliance = a group of players
[14:58:27] <Arashi> I know I'll probably catch flack for this, but if you want to do something with alliances, why not make it so that "alliance size/power" creates a operating cost
[14:58:32] <05+Rienna> yea. I hate hit limits
[14:58:37] <05+Rienna> almost quit during that update
[14:58:41] <07lildragon> your alliance can only hit say 50% of total alliance power (+/-)
[14:58:42] <Arashi> a smaller alliance would have little or no cost, but the larger it gets the more it takes to run
[14:58:43] <+Nuto_vixen> they can afford it :p
[14:58:55] <JOS> not everyone
[14:58:55] <07lildragon> but only in alliance wars
[14:59:02] <12~admin> would that not then just lead to unoffical alliances?
[14:59:04] <05+Rienna> Arashi: what kind of costs?
[14:59:04] <07lildragon> player to player would be as normal
[14:59:06] <+Nuto_vixen> well, the bill gates-esque alliance can
[14:59:07] <JOS> it'd kill me having a cost for operating BTU
[14:59:11] <07lildragon> hmm, good point
[14:59:11] <12~admin> since htere is in effect no benefit to being in one --game code wise.
[14:59:12] <07lildragon> >.<
[14:59:26] <+Nuto_vixen> protection
[14:59:29] <05+Rienna> as an alliance leader, I don't like the idea of alliance costs
[14:59:36] <JOS> i second that Rie
[14:59:37] <05+Rienna> don't think my account could pay for the alliance mates
[14:59:39] <+Nuto_vixen> alot of people join to be protected
[14:59:43] <+Nuto_vixen> for back up
[14:59:44] <Arashi> admin: depends on how you do it... you could add other benefits for larger alliances, like maybe defence or attack bonuses or something
[14:59:52] <12~admin> i can see off/commander costing. or bonus for neither. but alliance is just an informal grouping.
[15:00:01] <Arashi> just make it cost more than the bonus is worth (but not much more)
[15:00:04] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> alliance banks
[15:00:13] <05+Rienna> alliance banks would be wonderful
[15:00:14] <12~admin> we have alliance banks??!!
[15:00:19] <05+Rienna> just to put that out there.
[15:00:20] <+Nuto_vixen> lol
[15:00:21] <07lildragon> lol
[15:00:24] <+Nuto_vixen> I dont know about that idea
[15:00:24] <Jack_White> heh
[15:00:25] <05+Rienna> admin - right now, only unofficially
[15:00:30] <05+Rienna> they get stored in one players account
[15:00:33] <12~admin> ah
[15:00:34] <+Tealauc> indeed
[15:00:44] <12~admin> if anything, i would allow alliances to build monuments
[15:00:47] <10Ferra> its a good idea
[15:00:47] <05+Rienna> it'd be nice if we could have an official one, accessable by leader and second
[15:00:49] <Reality> haha
[15:00:50] <Silence> alliance banks would be good i think
[15:00:50] <12~admin> combined contribution
[15:00:52] <+Nuto_vixen> monuments?
[15:00:53] <Reality> I love it
[15:00:55] <Jack_White> admin - something like chaos alliance bank would have been really great
[15:01:04] <12~admin> see how big chaos banks get?
[15:01:11] <12~admin> its crazy :)
[15:01:12] <Jack_White> not played in a while
[15:01:18] <05+Rienna> exactly, admin
[15:01:20] <10Ferra> well thats because its chaor
[15:01:20] <Arashi> admin: make them have a cap based off of combined members bank cap
[15:01:22] <Jack_White> but i just meant something like it
[15:01:23] <05+Rienna> I've been leader of an allaince there too
[15:01:25] <10Ferra> chaos*
[15:01:26] <05+Rienna> it's really a good thing
[15:01:28] <+Nuto_vixen> I think it will just improve on the power issue...
[15:01:30] <12~admin> i checked a test acct the other day - had 55trillion
[15:01:45] <+Nuto_vixen> yeah, thats realistic :p0
[15:01:45] <05+Rienna> makes it easer for alliance leaders to help out the people in their allaince
[15:01:48] <Munchy98> Banks would be interesting...but instead of % auto going in it should be manual, that way they don't work as autobanking for people
[15:01:54] <05+Rienna> yea
[15:02:02] <+Tealauc> i'd love to have way how to support my officers more... like somebody suggested, sending part of my own defenders/attackers and weapons.. some percent..
[15:02:03] <Jack_White> Make the alliance bank cap half of what the total bank capacity of the alliance members
[15:02:03] <05+Rienna> a "donate to allaince bank" section
[15:02:06] <Arashi> yeah.. no auto-alliance bank
[15:02:13] <12~admin> ok - i am going to sidle this concept with 'alliance member page update'
[15:02:20] <12~admin> psi - can you note.
[15:02:23] <05+Rienna> alright admin, thanks
[15:02:28] <Munchy98> and have a section where the leader can see who has donated
[15:02:29] <Alpharius> lol
[15:02:29] <Jack_White> thanks :)
[15:02:38] <05+Rienna> yea, really good idea, Munchy
[15:02:39] <+Nuto_vixen> you can donte troops and AT as well?
[15:02:42] <05+Rienna> then alliance leader can keep track
[15:02:43] <+Nuto_vixen> or just naq
[15:02:44] <Arashi> munchy: not just leader.. all members

[15:02:51] <Alpharius> Just the notion of Sigh standing next to Admin head down with a notepad and a pen
[15:02:52] <05+Rienna> that'd make it more of an alliance pool, Nuto
[15:02:54] <Reality> or infinitely
[15:02:57] <quickshot84> eep, Psi_Kiya_Trist is goin to pung out..
[15:03:01] <+Nuto_vixen> yeah, but thats what it is anyway
[15:03:07] <quickshot84> ping*
[15:03:13] <Munchy98> I can hold 3 trillion on my main bank...just me, so it would get pretty large, yes

[15:03:20] <+Nuto_vixen> if you're going to do it, why not all or nothing
[15:03:21] <Arashi> if troops and AT were allowed, you'd want to severely cap them

[15:03:33] <Sigh> my internet dropped like like, after i said alliance banks
[15:03:40] <Reality> The alliance bank shouldn't be larger than the total of all the members' bank sizes
[15:03:44] <Alpharius> It didn't agree with you?
[15:03:45] <+Nuto_vixen> can anyone else see how this is going to make the growth issue worse?
[15:03:47] * ChanServ sets mode: +qo Sigh Sigh
[15:03:48] <Arashi> I still say make the alliance bank "caps" relative to the total combined member caps
[15:03:50] <05+Rienna> Sigh - I'm logging, I'll send it to you after okay?
[15:03:58] <Jack_White> just put in place the same effects as trading them ie make it a % cost to transfer them
[15:03:59] <12~Sigh> ok, thanks :)

[15:04:21] <+Nuto_vixen> really? NO WAY!!!??? :io:o:o:o:o
[15:04:22] <Silence> smaller players need things like alliance banks
[15:04:24] <12~Sigh> can we please not beep me?
[15:04:25] <+Nuto_vixen> I know

[15:04:59] <05+Rienna> what do you mean, admin?
[15:05:02] <12~admin> help little accounts by giving 'free' naq
[15:05:06] <Jack_White> as in how it's done now?
[15:05:08] <05+Rienna> ooooh
[15:05:11] <Arashi> Nuto_vixen: no matter what the changes are, everyone is going to benefit from them, so based on what your saying we shouldn't do any changes
[15:05:12] <+Nuto_vixen> lol
[15:05:13] <12~admin> no - use a turn; get free naq
[15:05:18] <Alpharius> You need a devils advicate to each idea
[15:05:22] * +Rienna envisions the death of mt sellers and cries
[15:05:24] <10Ferra> you could make it so you could trade MTs over the broker
[15:05:27] <Jack_White> that sounds nice
[15:05:35] <+Nuto_vixen> no, based on what I'm saying, we need to slow the top and speed the bottom, like admin suggested, its a good idea
[15:05:45] <Arashi> admin: that sounds nice.... basically the MT is your payment for the naq
[15:05:51] <Jack_White> Ferra - No, that wouldn't help the smaller players
[15:05:59] <12~admin> if little ppl had a reason to use them - and not 'sell' them to big players
[15:06:06] <12~admin> it would stop the quicker growth of big

[15:06:20] <+Nuto_vixen> true
[15:06:25] <05+Rienna> it'd just increase the cost of mt's
[15:06:31] <Jack_White> admin - just have to make sure that the naq offered to them is more than they will get for them on the BM
[15:06:38] <Alpharius> and stop mid range peeps from getting them
[15:06:39] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> which slows down the purchasing power of the ones who buy them
[15:06:46] <12~admin> jack -or close enough that hte hassle is not worth it
[15:06:54] <+Tealauc> i think it's good idea.
[15:06:59] <Jack_White> what i meant :)
[15:07:00] <Arashi> admin: you'd have to have a limiter of some type.. cause I see 2 problems with that. 1) the bigger players would just offer MORE naq than you'd set up, or 2) if you offered a LOT, a multi would just sell then let themselves be farmed
[15:07:01] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> Jack_White, we already discussed, that mt selling is not the way we want to go :-p
[15:07:01] * +Rienna cries
[15:07:14] <12~admin> hmmm
[15:07:30] <05+Rienna> hey now. as a raider, I LIKE mt sellers!
[15:07:37] <05+Rienna> it helps their account
[15:07:40] <05+Rienna> it helps MY account
[15:07:40] <12~admin> but now a multi could theoretically use the turns; then give the goods or attack for them
[15:08:08] <12~admin> what do you think would happen if there was not a limit on MT
[15:08:20] <+Nuto_vixen> omg, no
[15:08:24] <+Tealauc> omg..
[15:08:30] <Munchy98> I would buy the markets's at's, lol
[15:08:31] <Jack_White> could put them on a 12 hour unbreakable PPT, non stackable?
[15:08:34] <+Nuto_vixen> yeah, its a bad idea
[15:08:34] <+Nuto_vixen> lol
[15:08:36] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> the raiders would go power raiding indefinately, the market would run out of AT
[15:08:40] <05+Rienna> like... more than 3 mt's?
[15:08:42] <05+Rienna> omg
[15:08:45] <+Nuto_vixen> yeah,
[15:08:48] <+Nuto_vixen> thats .... wow
[15:08:48] * +Rienna is in raider heaven thinking about it
[15:08:54] <12~admin> well -the 'running out' makes that good really expensive
[15:09:06] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> and to most, it would be worth it.
[15:09:09] <Reality> I had plans to make it more expensive
[15:09:15] <Reality> my idea is:
[15:09:42] <Reality> The value of the total of each good is equal to the value of the total of the next good etc.

[15:10:20] <12~admin> reality -its close tot aht now
[15:10:25] <Alpharius> The problem is that higher players can afford that
[15:10:28] <Alpharius> and smaller players cannot
[15:10:33] <Reality> well
[15:10:38] <12~admin> but then the naq per turn sold is worth it to small accts
[15:10:40] <Reality> they'd make A LOT from selling AT
[15:10:41] <05+Rienna> that's a huge problem
[15:10:54] <Reality> and it'd balance things out
[15:11:07] <Arashi> admin: see PM, it's something I didn't want to paste to whole channel
[15:11:18] <12~admin> did it actually let you send me a PM?
[15:11:22] <12~admin> i thought i was full
[15:11:23] * ~Psi_Kiya_Trist rolls eyes *
[15:11:30] <Jack_White> lol
[15:11:35] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> i think he ment on irc
[15:11:37] <05+Rienna> arashi: how can we have a discussion if you're hiding ideas from the channel
[15:11:38] <Arashi> I mean here, not in game or anything
[15:11:46] <05+Rienna> c'mon now, I'm not really gonna mass you
[15:11:48] <12~admin> ah
[15:11:49] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> which i wanted to prevent
[15:11:56] <quickshot84> Psi - Arashi = she*
[15:11:56] <Alpharius> Its her proposal of undying love for him
[15:11:58] <Arashi> rienna: it wasn't an idea, it was a bug/exploit I wanted to make sure he knew about
[15:12:02] <Alpharius> :)
[15:12:04] <Acolyte> admin: Why wont you increase ascensions part 10...
[15:12:09] <Acolyte> past*
[15:12:16] <05+Rienna> :o no!
[15:12:24] <05+Rienna> 10 ascensions is enough
[15:12:24] * +Tealauc still hopes to have choice of being a Tok'ra instead of System Lord
[15:12:27] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> he'd have to make new titles
[15:12:31] <05+Rienna> have you seen some people's ascended accounts?
[15:12:33] <05+Rienna> sheeeeeesh
[15:12:36] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> yes
[15:12:42] <Acolyte> Ancient God +2 sounds fine
[15:12:45] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> i know of someone who's ascension is bigger than my main
[15:12:47] <Alpharius> Which is a problem once decension sets in
[15:13:01] <05+Rienna> :D:D
[15:13:04] <Acolyte> i like ascension
[15:13:06] * +Rienna looks forward to descension
[15:13:11] <07lildragon> lol
[15:13:11] <Reality> Some people have better ascension accounts than many have chaos accounts 8-)
[15:13:13] <07lildragon> its hard to do
[15:13:16] <Acolyte> i look forward to it to
[15:13:27] <Bastion> Admin: there is a problem - when you're 2IC in an alliance, you send messaegs in your 1IC's name, not your own... is this purposeful?
[15:13:29] <Jack_White> Acolyte - Rank 1 on ascension has double the army size of rank 3
[15:13:40] * SGW_Guest358 (mailto:SGW_Guest3@1C98BB18.AF7A1F00.1B454B17.IP) has joined #theplace
[15:13:40] <Acolyte> ur point....
[15:13:49] <JOS> Bastion: thats a really annoying problem
[15:13:51] <05+Rienna> I second that question. freaked me out when my 2ic sent the alliance a message in my name
[15:13:56] <05+Rienna> I thought my account had been hacked.
[15:14:01] <JOS> my 2IC sent messages and i copped crap for it =/
[15:14:09] <Jack_White> at the moment there would be no way anyone could catch up to that
[15:14:12] <12~admin> bastion - hm. not intended.
[15:14:15] <Bastion> ahha, so my 2IC wasn't the only one
[15:14:18] <12~admin> can you add to bugs in forum
[15:14:26] <05+Rienna> it used to be that 2ic messages got sent in their name
[15:14:29] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> i think it was mentioned in bugs
[15:14:30] <05+Rienna> so when it switched
[15:14:32] <05+Rienna> i was freaked
[15:14:35] <SGW_Guest358> yeah happens to me all the time 2
[15:14:50] <12~admin> the bug mod is compiling an 'open bugs' summary post. this will help if it gets a lot at once.
[15:14:57] <12~admin> not sure how far back they'll go
[15:15:11] <12~admin> so if its outstanding, and buried, feel free to comment that its still an active bug
[15:15:11] <Arashi> admin: as a safety feature, could the "send mothership to explore" be moved INTO the planetary summary, or something similar
[15:15:14] <07lildragon> hopfully all the way bacl
[15:15:19] <Arashi> I know many people still accidentally send their MS away
[15:15:20] <07lildragon> back
[15:15:24] <Bastion> Why lil?
[15:15:48] <Bastion> ah
[15:15:48] <07lildragon> why all teh way back? i was refering to admin's comment about the bug mod compiling a list
[15:16:03] <07lildragon> and we want all bugs gotten put on that list
[15:16:05] <07lildragon> and fixed
[15:16:07] <05+Rienna> <Arashi> admin: as a safety feature, could the "send mothership to explore" be moved INTO the planetary summary, or something similar >>>>>>> seconded
[15:16:20] <12~admin> arashi - idid move the buttun further away. will look, but where it is is for a reason.
[15:16:22] <10Ferra> yeah that would be usefull
[15:16:41] <Arashi> admin: maybe put a "check" confirm box on it then
[15:16:41] <12~admin> maybe i make a confirm box too like some other 'accidentially pressed' buttons
[15:16:42] <10Ferra> i hit it all the time
[15:16:51] <05+Rienna> yea, admin, please
[15:16:52] <12~admin> psi -can you note
[15:16:53] <Jack_White> hehe

[15:17:18] <12~Psi_Kiya_Trist> 5 notes
[15:17:21] <Jack_White> woo!
[15:17:24] <12~admin> ok. i was late, but we're also over on time :)
[15:17:34] <Arashi> oh.. speaking of "confirm" boxes.. can you make it so that "nox and realm alert can both be adjusted at the same time: IE: nox on and crit realm alert, instead of doing them 1 at a time
[15:17:36] <07lildragon> over time is fine
[15:17:39] <12~admin> any last questino/comment/etc that ppl want me to think on?
