As long as you're trying, guys, it definitely counts!

Questions, sugestions and few 2 cents...

1. Why Ymph is to be a flashback of Underdark ? Same militia-religion-racial plots ?

2. Why focus at Undeads/Rizers/Zombies ? No Pirates, No Old Port rivals, No Wild Elfs ?

3. Why not another colony far from Zigg, maybe Bliss ?

4. There is life and fun for an above 8 level char?

All those are connected to a simple rule:  must have a magical number of players to born a concept or a plot.

Something void the "Blue Meanies" concept and something grow the "Archeological Society" concept.

Play the rules and be a DooM is an art, is more than make monsters and places, is think about what/how/where we will do next year.

That makes no sense.

[Thomas_Not_very_wise]

He was asking why we had no elves, etc...

3. Why not another colony far from Zigg, maybe Bliss ?

It's not for lack of trying. I actually apped for Sated Shark Staff with the aim of attracting people over to Bliss and getting questing going from there, a ferry set up, but the app got turned down, then the Shark got burned down.

There *are* spawnpoints and groups operating outside the Ziggurat are, but these are only really "wilds" factions.

Currently your best bet is to work on getting a Gobsquat community going, since all the Half-orcs got banished outside or to there, and the Hanged Goblin has staff again.

No. I don't ask why EFU* don't have more specific races or classes, I talk about groups that share same concept and can sustain a RP with more than brute force and stuff. The server goes to a strict structure of order and any group need more than a DooM to alive. Need charisma to a concept or a character to sustain a number of player.

From Toril (NWN) to Nemedia (Conan) rip the half-elf, half-orc, elf, gnomes and make halfling be childrens and dwarfs be dwarfs.

At least I can try to say it in a funny way:
 

[DangerousDan]

For the record, I would say our current factional relationships do not really mirror Sanctuaries at all.

[Sternhund]

As of now, our current faction relationships are dramatically different from Sanctuary's.

You must completely disect tooh's posts to understand the thousands of acres of pure wisdom stowed beneath.

Only then will you know the true meaning.

I'm hoping this will change while I RP my new jester/bard, but it'd be a lot cooler to have more culture in EfU.

I don't want to compare anything being better than anything else, but I am saying that on a certain other server It's quite easy for a wizard to be encouraged to do wizardly things, a cleric preachy things, a bard entertainment things, and a rogue, sneaky things. Geeze, PCs need to start hiring PCs for their class traits.

Another thing Iv'e noticed that just doesn't make a lot of sense to me, and that's especially emberassing when a New player tells me the following:

So, basically Iv'e appeared at random onto a strange island, along with several others, surrounded by nightrisers. But- I am also very much within reach to access the means to return to my home, by means of ship, or the stygian armada, fleet of the first bolt, etc. Why would anyone stay here?

I was unable to answer.

Another thing, why are we more worried about evil druids, orcs, and nightrisers? We should be worried about something else, Pirates mayhaps? I don't know if it's foig to elaborate further, but getting rid of the nightrisers is equivilent to getting rid of the chosen, except the chances are not even a billion to one. I'm just saying it'd be nice to be faced with a challenge that can be solved, not coped with.

Uh.. It's not simply a matter of just taking some random boat.

[petey512]

I'm sure there is a reason, it's just that the reason isn't really that evident, you know? Or maybe I'm just retarded.

[DangerousDan]

If returning home was easy, everyone would be doing it. They are not. Of course, it's possible (easier than escaping the Underdark, for certain), but not within the reach of most PCs.

[chatellerault]

I'm not clear what the problem is with leaving the island chain myself. I can't recall an instance where I spoke with an npc or read a forum post where any explanation for this was brought forward. I think this must have been an oversight.

As far as server enjoyment goes, there simply isn't enough DM to go around. If you'd like to be a part of server events or enjoy having a DM around, its perfectly acceptable to go where DMs are, rather then expecting them to come to you. Be flexible with your character.
