IDEAS FOR RYZOM


Ideas about fame and how to improve while respecting all players playstyles

What IS your faction and your guild anyway? Think about it mechanics wise and otherwise.

Mechanics wise, I am Neutral/Kara in a Matis/Kara guild (Rift Walkers).

Otherwise, I am a Hominist (so I can't be Marauder) who feels coerced into having to follow a religion by game mechanics and a desire to hang with my closest friends. For more details on that...

I just want to be able to be Agnostic without being punished. Having chat channels that don't disappear every reset and don't require a / command or macro seems like a pretty big perk, especially for those who are not computer savvy. Using dynamic channels to get around the lack of a guild channel is a logistic nuisance, as any Cookie knows from the number of resets we've had lately. It also requires EVERYONE to take some action simply because ONE person wants to be something that mechanics and lore do not really allow. That may not be a problem for tiny guilds, but RW is far from small. Being able to share a GH is also a perk. Having PR/250 TPs is a tremendous perk too.

So what sort of props do us non-believers get for being true to our heathen selves? It seems to me that all we get is a huge middle finger. Devoted Agnostics are treated the same as those who are too casual to declare an allegiance, so dedication to RP is not a factor in deciding whether you get rewarded or not. The only ones who get any perks for being non-theists are Marauders, who are also anti-everything-else and thus not an option that really attracts me. Rangers are starting to get some love, but if I went Ranger I'd have to convice dozens of people to eschew guild chat in favor of a dynamic channel that they may not have the skill to set up, along with having to pay for a second sub so I could do anything GH-related.

Do not assume that you speak for all just because you are the loudest voice; there are many who disagree that simply have no desire to waste words on you.
