What are they NEWBIE’ing on Ansalon MUD?
Luxmer Newbietalks 'how do I read the "new story articles, changes, new notes, undread ideas, and unread warnotes" that the system tells me about when I login?'
Chemosh Newbietalks 'Mostly, you'll just type the category: STORY, NOTE, CHANGE, IDEA, etc. '
Luxmer Newbietalks 'thanks! I was stupidly writting "read" in front of them lol'
Chemosh Newbietalks 'It can be tricky. There is in-game notepaper that you can WRITE and READ as well.'
Luxmer Newbietalks 'thanks Chemosh'
Mischief Newbietalks 'list'
Mischief Newbietalks 'oops'
Luxmer Newbietalks 'how do I use the numbers on the map?'
Luxmer Newbietalks 'story articles'
Luxmer Newbietalks 'sorry that was sa mistake!'
Luxmer Newbietalks 'how do I take from the donation pit?'
Murkwhisper Newbietalks 'same as you get stuff from any container which is essentially "get item container" IE get coupon pit'
Luxmer Newbietalks 'thanks!'
Luxmer Newbietalks 'hi! so confused! I got the hammer and returned to the advisor but now it is saying that I need to give it to another advisor maybe?'
Someone Newbietalks 'Try it again.'
Luxmer Newbietalks 'how do I climb out of the dump?'
Kiyohime Newbietalks 'thi is newbie'
Beatha Newbietalks 'The rules on PK are... really oddly worded. What does getting slay/eat mean? What are charmies?'
Gaddock Newbietalks 'so a slay/eat means you get killed and lose everything in your corpse, typically saved for all but the most egregious violations'
Gaddock Newbietalks 'i dont think a slay/eat has happened in atleast 5 years if not more to describe how rare it is'
Gaddock Newbietalks 'charmies are monsters or players charmed via the charm person spell'
Beatha Newbietalks 'Thanks! Why aren't these defined nicely in the same help file or other helpfiles? XD'
Gaddock Newbietalks 'Oh that's because those are compiled over almost 3 decades of rules changes/updates/remakes/etc '
Gaddock Newbietalks 'if you come across any other questions feel free to drop em, ill be happy to answer while im around and if not im sure someone from the community will, we've got a pretty good group here '
Beatha Newbietalks 'Hmmm. I'm interested in RP but if things like GMOTES exist (where people from across the continent can emote with your character??), I'm not sure that's the vibe I'm going for'
Gaddock Newbietalks 'so there are a few ways to RP, just do in room stuff (like using the 'say' channel), you can use 'ic' or in character for global RP, there aren't anything like global emotes for morts but immortals have gecho which is global echo etc'
Gaddock Newbietalks 'then you can do things like write stories for backgrounds or journal style RP'
Beatha Newbietalks 'Right but gemotes are like... My character here in the MudSchool can emote with your character that's not in the mudschool?'
Gaddock Newbietalks 'That's normally going to be an IC interaction '
Beatha Newbietalks 'My question is how it can be possible IC, globally'
Gaddock Newbietalks 'much like you use "newbie message" use this channel use "ic message" for your in character RP that is seen globally'
Beatha Newbietalks 'So no one ever interacts with your character face-to-face in the room with your character?'
Gaddock Newbietalks 'that's the "say" channel in the same room, its in character but also local'
Beatha Newbietalks 'I got it. Thank you very much for all your help'
Gaddock Newbietalks 'no problem, the environment is fairly "live" so NPCs and vendors will say stuff but arent exactly interactive so they dont respond to what you say'
Chemosh Newbietalks 'Mostly, you'll just type the category: STORY, NOTE, CHANGE, IDEA, etc. '
