Why oh why must people giggle and grin over the gweth? Maybe I am just crabby. Maybe I should go to sleep.

Your mind hears Netherlich thinking "Actually i was asking to buy....movin up to 50Pk for Limb Disruption and 40 for Blackfire."

Just get out of Ratha. It's not nearly as bad elsewhere. What else can you expect from cat people who give birth in bank lobbies?

Honestly, this seems worse than the giggling, but maybe its just me.

>>Honestly, this seems worse than the giggling, but maybe its just me.

It's not just you. If I hear that kinda gweth I locate the person and just thump them until they get the message.

Using the original purpose of THUMP? How dare you!

Jesting aside, I'd wager the thumper would get a warning for harassment before the OOC idiot would get a warning for anything. Not that it would stop me if they went to Ilithi and tried that nonsense.

>>The laughing and giggling stuff doesn't really bother me. My rule of thumb is if it is something one could do over the phone, it's probably something one could do on the gweths. That certainly includes laughing and the like. It's the ":::tackles you and smooches you all over!::: kind of crap that gets on my nerves.

Agreed

>Should there be a way to thump someone on the gweth if you have significantly more concentration than them? Would the abuses outweigh the benefit?

It's too bad any decent sized Large Blunt won't double as a gwethsmasher. Although it is harder to think with ones face turned inside out from said Large Blunt.

>>Just get out of Ratha. It's not nearly as bad elsewhere.

I wish this were true.

If you don't like to listen to it, why not take the gweth off. SImple solution. We all know that OOC is allowed in the game. Might as well, just turn the gweth off, and keep moving.

LOL, I LOVE IT

I was told to kill Pawgetz and all of Ratha one time. That's not going to solve anything in a game like this where there are favors. So I'm all like: "How do you kill that which has no life?" (Southpark episode 8, Season 10)

Answer: By making them cry over the gweth.

To those who say take off gweths or ignore them...

The greater part of the population shouldn't have to suffer for the idiocy of a small part. Pass out the gwethsmashers forthwith.

A small portion of the population can be ignored why worry about it? Ohh that is right, might makes right? Or is it, because someone disagrees with your assesment they are wrong? Ohh yeah, OOC is not allowed and I will jump up and down and take my ball home because the GM's won't stop them from thinking things like " =) " it does not affect your game play, then ignore it. Stop acting like a whiney two year old, and start squelching the names. We don't need more GM regulation, we need less.

I guess it comes down to is it possible to laugh over the gweth(Via gweth magic theory and IC regulations governing the use of gweths). If it is, then it's both stupid and out of character to to make fun of somone for doing so. Unless your character always makes fun of people for laughing. So if the phone theory for the gweth is accurate, anything you can do on the phone you can do on the gweth, objecting to it would be an odd character quirk at best and blatantly OOC at worst.

If it's not, where the thought has to be carefully constructed and then broadcast, where somthing as spontanious as a laugh just wouldn't be possible, then it's OOC and needs to stop. However, discussing somone laughing on the gweth is then taking an OOC action and trying to roleplay with it by complaining about it. Which is dumb. OOC actions should be ignored or thumped (I hate reporting, but that too is an option) not roleplayed with. The sooner everyone moves on from an OOC action, the sooner it's no longer disruptive.

Is there any IG or GM literature that explains exacly how a gweth functions? There are audotory implications in the messaging of the gweth that lead me to belive that visual images and such wouldn't nessicarly be possible, though thats just my interperation.

The disturbing part is that my moonie is actually on Aesry. Maybe that K gweth was a bad idea ...

dumb suggestion.

the gweth is part of the quasi-medieval environment we play in. Players should treat it as an RP tool. If they don't i should be able to eat their babies.

The greater part of the population shouldn't have to suffer for the idiocy of a small part. Pass out the gwethsmashers forthwith.

I think that people who have managed to get themselves into the PIRP system should receive gweth smashers. It demonstrates responsible and consistent RPing at least.

After someone's gweth is smashed, they report, its lightening fast to read what they were typing on the gweth. No paper work, no searching for time stamped logs. Grease-lightening...

If a GM tips their eyes towards the gweth conversation which resulted in a smashed gweth and doesn't see gronds, the PIRP player loses their gweth smashing abiity for life. Should be a tentatively bestowed priviledge.

And if GMs are designing the game so that they never get reports, the game is gonna just plain suck.

>Not only did they RP a birth in a bank lobby, they rp'd giving birth to twins, one coming out of hiding after it was born and being taught evasion instantly (because ALL newborns need evasion)

This is a direct result of the Ratha 1st bank population of noobs; without proper knowledge, skill, or apparent willing execution of the thump command. That crap would have never made it 2 minutes on the green.

>and the other being a "still-born" prydaen baby DOLL.

How tragic.
