I was looking up WoW graphics and the game looks really nice. Looking forward to being able to play that at some point. But I'm still going to be doing mud, just because I like writing/coding.

splashed with harsh-looking demonic language, written in blood. Some of
them are readable tributes to the emperor, oaths of service til bitter
death, and hatred for everything that lives on the realm's surface.

They're not the only ones "lurking" somewhere... |

Well... I most certainly check the forums and logs and everything, but my playing has cut down. For the last month, all I have done is play AR to be honest, haha.... But that was because I moved(once again) and now have the internet again. But, now that I finally got a job again, and still been trying to move all my stuff, so my playing time has definately decreased as it may show. Most people know who my new character is, if it isnt obvious enough. I am still around IRC to chat with everyone though for the most part. So... In conclusion, my time has decreased, hopefully when I am done moving, I will be around more and more again, but I most certainly am around the forums and stuff. |

I agree with Soldier, you fucktards need to post shit more often
I play very little because I have very little time to myself anymore, and the majority of my online time consists of being at work.
Of the three or four times in the last month I've played, twice have been at work |

Finally some agrees with my drunken ramblings. Because of Ray I tried FL its not bad but AR is better by a longshot but I know what it is. Were all getting older and we have less time on our hands and all these fucking changes are railing us up the ass thats what. No complaints though Dav is working hard I thank him but some of this shit has got to stop. And post more even if its a quick fucking browse its like driving by a buddies place you wanna just say hey thats all is it that hard.
Asses. |

Yeah, I mostly stopped playing because I decided my true calling is a roleplayer, and RPI's are better in that respect. No offense intended; after all, I would definately place AR as the best PK MUD out there. The main reason I still am around is because I have a, um, rare character that I don't want to see deleted from inactivity.
I still enjoy reading the forums. Reading the chaotic, drunk, rants of players disillutioned with recent changes never fails to bring a smile to my face (for some sick reason). It's a lot more interesting than most forums for internet games. |

Actually I like alot of the changes... I especially like all the recent additions, like the quests. I think they are a great thing for new people. It introduces them to alot of the things that will come in handy for them. Great job to all the Imms if you ask me. But I might agree that people are getting older and getting less time to play, and now, school is starting for lots as well. |

i guess i fall into category of play a little lurk alot. Also I enjoy logboard.
I'd play more if I had the time. This game can really be quality experience.

It has been a rough 50/50 split for the last two days.
This is why I think a few 'activites' for those of us who have been put out to pasture is a good idea. We already have surges for active players who have limited time. Why not a few brawl days for the forum lurkers and new players? Instead of having it at level 50, make it 35. That way if people enjoy themselves, they will want to come back to sample the action at level 50. We can advertise it on the web page as a chance of newbies to sample the action. |

I haven't played in about a year and a half (graduated college, have to go to work now instead of playing all day, and don't have internet at home), but I still read the forums and logboards regularly. Thanks to everyone who posts logs--they're a lot of fun to read, even though they make me wish I had a chance to check out all the new stuff thats going on. |
