@kk Yes, despite the thread here which gave me some trepidation. I am having a great time at Liberation. Particularly in the Mage sphere.

@alamias I'm looking at liberation, can you elaborate on your experience over there for me a bit? I would greatly appreciate it.

@greenflashlight If I were to run a Mu* I'd place the help file text on a wiki with a directory. I have the time, just not the skill to create/alter a Mu* platform. I ran a godwars based game back in the early 90's but I mean, most the work was already there...But yeah, I always have a struggle with the help/news files.

@pyrephox I haven't dipped into Ares yet. But the lack of anything else might drive me to the platform.

I check in occasionally to see what's active, I think the last time I did was about a year ago.

So what are our options for active WoD games these days? Looking through advertisements it doesn't seem like much is out there anymore.

Huh, the Beast sounds new and interesting. I think I'll check it out!

@peasoupling But I expect unpaid volunteer staff to be on top of the ball! Even at the cost of their own personal lives!

I'm not sure about the other spheres, but Approval for Mortal or even someone looking at your character is exceedingly slow. I'm generally alright with a day or two but we're at four days now without even a peep.

Seems all those Mu* aggregators are behind on the times, at least the ones I know of.
Anyone wanna throw down a list of the current active White Wolf Mu*s for me...

Maybe with a rating of Drama and Admin ego?

I know of Fallcoast and City of Hope right now. I think the Kingsmouth is dead yeah?

@Lithium ...are you authorized....

He said snickering.

I like the way they went with Paladins. Paladins are no longer the "I have to leave the room while my companions interrogate this evil do-er because of my ridiculously strict morality". You can be if you want. Evil paladins still don't really exist unless you're an Oathbreaker, almost all the Paladins still exist on the spectrum of good, but just like the gods you might follow, not everyone is strictly LAWFUL GOOD, you can have a neutral good character who does what he believes is right. As long as you obey your gods rules, and don't go around as a murder hobo, you'll still be in the right. It gives Paladins more flexibility, less rigidity. Mystra isn't Lawful Good, Neither is Lathander, both the classic examples of good gods. So why should Paladins have to be?

I'm wiggling my fingers and occasionally my toes in anti.....cipation.

Staring intensifies

I want this.

@Arkandel I know what my next concept will be.

@Thenomain I dunno Lovecraft has pretty much been super popular in counter-culture groups since I was a kid.

@Lisse24 It's not anymore, and definately not 'thething everywhere'.

@tragedyjones It was the comment of it being 'the thing' everywhere that suggested otherwise to me.

@tragedyjones It's an unknowable, alien entity controlling the world through occult machinations. I'm pretty sure that's what Lisse was referring too.
