  2. Thanks for your application! You were a very strong candidate, and it was a very tough call between you and Caelphon. I was especially impressed with Marlon's endorsement here, and I think you would've been great for the role too based on your application, your handling of responses, and my personal experiences with you on the team. I appreciate you.

      Sorry folks. The position is as an "independent contractor" with an "at will" end of contract clause. On the bright side, you're your own "boss!"

  10. With Kyres' resignation last week, the position of Deputy Loremaster is now open for applications! In addition to the standard lore writer application, please include a brief writing identifying the course and creative direction you would like to see the lore take. This can be a criticism of the current lore and state thereof, but if so, must still include a "gameplan" of what you would like to see as deputy loremaster. Please also include a brief description of why you believe you would be the best candidate for the position. KOALA-FICATIONS ?? Anyone can apply, with the only restriction being that if someone who is currently a lore team deputy applies, they must resign their deputy position if accepted as deputy loremaster, in accordance with the lore team rules and regulations.
  11. Prepare yourselves... Soon^TM

  13. Hey everyone! The purpose of this thread is for the submission of new pictures for one to be selected as the clubs new image. Submissions aren't allowed to be lewd or cropped from a lewd. Happy hunting!
  14. I really like the banner, but I'm not married to it. The club picture was a more or less completely arbitrary selection
  15. Which would you guys prefer? 3A or A3? I'm partial to A3 because it could be a joke on A1 productions.
  16. Attention everyone!!! I have started an anime club on the forums. Currently there's nothing really there and essentially no members, but fellow weebs unite! 

     

  17. I don't believe Nienna has done anything wrong in this case. Had they stripped your whitelist or given a severe warning, I think it would've been overzealous based on the lack of clear information they were going off of. But a polite and transparent nudge in your DMs isn't enough to warrant any action from me. It seems like they gathered your information and your side of the story in the course of your brief conversation, which would be pretty standard for investigating whitelist complaints. I don't have anything to add on the front of potential metagrudges. I dunno if people have one against you, but the lightness of Nienna's whitelist enforcement was an appropriate approach in line with regulations, and anything stricter based on the lack of information they had would've been grounds for corrective action.
  18. My girl Jahy-sama is finally getting an anime adaptation. What a blessed world I live in. ?

  19. I'm satisfied with your answers, and as a result, have accepted your application and given you your whitelist. Buzz on, brother ?
  20. Hello! Vaurca are probably my weakest section of lore these days, as last time I was acutely familiar with them was multiple rewrites ago. But I'll do my best. At the moment I only really have two issues that I take up with this application, maybe three. The first (and very iffy, on my part) one is that, I'm not immediately aware of a C'thur Zheng-Hu mix, and couldn't find it through a quick wiki search. Maybe it's a news article? It can be hard to keep track of sometimes. But C'thur are closely interlinked with Eridani and Skrell, and Eridani and Skrell are closely linked with Zheng-Hu, so, it makes sense. The second is the whole, synthesizer that avoids the vaurcese accent thing. Generally, I'm somewhat apprehensive of characters that don't have their xeno-accents, but maybe that's a more minor item. If I accepted this app, and the vac dev decided later that you had to use the accent, just be open to the idea is all, as it's somewhat iffy to me, but I'm ambivalent about it. Vaurca have all sorts of mechanical implants, a voice synthesizer that has less of an accent seems pretty believable. The last, and probably only non-nitpick real criticism I have, is what exactly makes Pax a C'thur? And more specifically, a Xetl Brood? The C'thur are a hive that's all about cash money and financial development. The Xetl Brood is all about integrating within Skrell/Human society, but the wiki page seems to make it out to be a rigorous and intensive study and process, under the guidance of the Sensate. Pax definitely seems well-adjusted into human society, but I think the backstory would be a lot better if we had more on Pax's journey and process. I guess what I'm getting at here is, to reiterate, what makes Pax a C'thur (with note that C'thur are heavily tied in with skrell)? How has being part of the Xetl Brood impacted and directed the events in his life?
  21. Locking and archiving.
  22. I've given this a good read and a good think, and I don't think Nienna has committed any misconduct here, at least based on my reading of these screenshots. While it is true that you had intended to file a complaint privately before Nienna filed their own publicly (evidenced by messaging me intending to before all these complaints were filed), it's worth noting Nienna had no private avenue to file a complaint about you, as community member conduct is outside of my jurisdiction. I'm not the best in the world at picking up subtleties, but I don't see much of anything that constitutes antagonism or a violation of the DBAD rule here. I'll give this 24 hours before I lock and archive it if anyone would like to say anything.
  23. Just posting in to make clear that this complaint is still being investigated, however, I would like if @niennabcould respond in their own defense, as this complaint is being investigated separately from the other.
  24. What do you think about the direction of Aurora lore? Do you like it? If not, what direction would you take it in?

      More news, less arcs, more small events. Don't get me wrong everyone loves big important arcs, but I feel like something more casual on a bi weekly basis would be healthier.

      Also I am once more asking for IC news on the Phoenixport situation.

      Not sure how good of an idea this is. The event arcs have received a lot of positive impact, specially over the news and other things. While there are practical concerns, like the arcs being too high energy to run sustainably at a specific interval, I think we should continue to work with that formula instead.

      Wew, this got a lot more feedback then I was expecting. I'm definitely of the variety that wants... well... a ton of variety. Though that process is being slowed down in the near future in favor of depth for what is already present, before possibly pursuing more variety.

      I'm glad to hear that the shift away from complete NT-centrism is well received! I was actually really concerned about how well that would go over with everyone.
