Hey guys I'm staging a meeting on Furcadia (Slave Cell Area) to discuss the appeal we need to submit to Armageddon staff concerning this change in the rules. Should go down next weekend, PM me for details.

Are you really one Furcadia?

Oh man. Barsook, never change, darlin'.

I love that the majority of the players who are unironically pissed about this announcement are players who I know to be female. If anything gets between these lusty ladies and their mud lovin',  the whole player base will suffer.

I'm still pissed off.  >:(

I still think the best closure you get in Armageddon is just moving on to the next character.

Whether or not this is a joke, I would be very displeased to see these changes in Armageddon.

Lol, the sex thing is only a tiny part. I think trying impose limitations on RP on Arm is like trying to take 'Freedom' away from America. It's just the point of it.

Exactly. I came into this thinking there was some chance it was a joke and some chance it was serious, the thread's here for people to speak up about these things, it -is- a discussion thread. Joke or not.

Exactly. My words and thoughts exactly. It's the point. Remove the point, remove the spirit of it.

No one on staff is just waiting for the opportunity to get revenge on someone who killed one of their characters years ago.

Except me. I remember every death. And I am coming for you bastards.

A'ight, for those taking this seriously;

They would never, ever change the game in any kind of radical sense under the noses of everyone like that. Armageddon would fall apart like everyone is threatening. If they did want to make any big changes like this, they would discuss it with the player base first.

I'm taking an indeterminate break from Armageddon for the foreseeable future and thereby am not available for mudsex.

I'm going to wait a few days before I stop voting for armageddon. If I stop voting now, that will be like voting against waiting until april fool's day is over to reveal the joke.

Regardless of whether or not it's a joke, I'm not going to respond to the proposed changes, because I have fault with the way they were laid out to begin with.

Simply put, saying 'Everything about Arm completely changes. Now.' just doesn't seem to be the way the staff do things. Likely, more than one discussion would have been had about the  changes, and they would have been implemented slowly.

I choose to delay my action, while the troll advances.


@Maxid - I had to google ad hominems, I have no fault with your argument, I have fault with your arument style. Mostly, I was tired and trying to think of something funny to say to make funny of you. (Which, by whatever means, I would not mind you doing to me.)

Right ... right. It's totally about the "spirit" of the game. The mudsex has nothing to do with it.

I totally believe each and every one of you.

Totally.

For real.

I think a good compromise would be: if you vote, you get teleported into a secret mudsex room where staff have sexy NPCs waiting to be animated. But before you're allowed to go to this room, you have to promise you're 18 or older. But I don't know if that counts as compensating players for their vote, which TMS and TMC don't allow.

Either way, c'mon, save the drama bomb rage fest vote boycott stuff till after April Fools Day is over.
You know ... just on the slim chance that you're hilariously over reacting to a joke and everyone is gonna laugh at you for it when it's all said and done even though you're gonna try and say "Oh I was just joking too April Fools!" in defense to save face.

:D

... ... seriously keep voting.

As a relatively new player, I do not have the experience of years that many of the rest of you do. Much of the game world is still a mystery to me. But even with my limited experience of Armageddon, I have seen a flavor of gameplay not found in any other MUD. The sheer brutality is what has led me to fall in love with this game, for better or for worse, and I will be very sad if the changes proposed are implemented. I'm going to miss the public mutilation of breeds, even if it was graphic. I'm going to miss hearing old time Bynners swear in Allanak. I'm going to miss the spice trade. I feel that much of what makes Armageddon as incredible as it is will be lost if we do indeed switch to a more PG setting.

That said, these changes will create a MUD that I did not intend to play. That is not the Armageddon that I fell in love with. I would rather see it turn into a game for ages 18+ than censor it for the sake of a larger player base. In all honesty, I think the player base we have now, even if it is small, works well enough for the game environment. Why sacrifice the heart of Armageddon for more players?

At this point, I am going to join those of you who are not voting for Armageddon on TMS or TMC until this is confirmed as a joke. This new Armageddon is not what I have been voting for. I will not support these changes.

So many feels. Welcome to armageddon :)

If they're going to implement the city ooc channel, they might have to nerf the wilderness ooc channel a bit to compensate.

Nerf everything I don't use.

Why does everyone have to declare their knowledge of an April Fools prank every time one happens? You're supposed to be kayfabe so those who don't realize get tricked.
