  1. I know it's kind of like a Voldemort situation at this point, but the server-that-shall-not-be-named had certain players promoted as RPCs (Roleplay Coordinators), who for a time led a succession of publicly-hosted roleplay events in both the main phase, as well as their own phases.  They would promote their events ahead of time in the announce chat and allow time and space for newcomers to ask questions ahead of time before the events began.

     

    I wonder if maybe an appointed few people could be granted some kind of a title here and be allowed to act as ambassadors for entry-level RP in a similar manner, to help folks who are new to Epsilon and guide them into joining our community smoothly.  They wouldn't even have to have any extra command powers, really, just some kind of notation or different-colored name would do fine.  A similar system would be the mentor system Blizzard implemented in retail not too long ago (Guide Mentor System - Help New Players Starting Out in Shadowlands - Wowhead News).  They have a separate conversation channel that new players are defaulted to using until they reach a certain level of experience in the game.

     

    Just an idea in the moment.  As far as updates for Shadowlands, that's beyond my knowledge to offer any insight or alternative ways to relay that information.  On that end, all we can do is be patient and hope that development of SL is close to its finality, as Azarchius said above that it is.  While a bit disheartening that it has taken considerable time, I can only say after having been on Epsilon for some years now that I trust that the progress has been slow for the betterment of the stability of the server in the long-term.

     

    Great post, by the way!  Topics like these are why I used to love coming onto the forums.  Very good medium to put deep thought into a subject and let it simmer more compared to the quick, live-action style of Discord.  


  2. Yup, noticed this some time ago - figure it's just how the system works.  Usually end up having to respawn it to fix it, and it's tough to recapture the angle if you haven't kept track of NWSE position.


  3. Not sure how feasible or how dumb of an idea this may be, but here goes!  I am at an odd situation where I'm spawning plenty of bamboo platforms, and the spawn locations are a bit finicky to find in this mess.  I was wondering if it is possible to put the scale info on the objects you find near you with the .gob near command.

     

    Unless I happen to be missing something or not knowing a command that could help better, which is very possible.

  4. Welcome, old friend! 


    I roleplay very casually nowadays, but if you're able to put even a modest amount of time into roleplaying here, you'll easily find some friendly folk that'll converse with you.  I'm afraid I don't know full well what most people here do, but I spend my time with a small group of friends I've known for a few years and we have weekly events in our own phase.

     

    If you need any help, let me know!  Feel free to go through the quick tutorial that Epsilon established some few months ago as well, it's pretty neat.

    But what's so wrong in wanting to rp a hozen serving banana cocktails?!

    There ain't a damn thing wrong with that, mate.  If you need a good group to join up with, you can come along with my friends and I anytime - we'd be glad to have ya.  My Discord is Vraul#6848 if you want to get in touch.  I'm just getting the other lads to download the server, and we should be set up quite soon.

    Welcome to Epsilon, by the way!  Hope your stay here is bountiful.

    Comments

    Not sure if this has been posted in these forums yet, but if not I figured I would post it here in case.  In my opinion, this revert makes building and socializing at the same time a lot less annoying. 

    Also I don't know how to code nor do I know how to use github, so I attached the file directly in case I messed the link up.
