@Thenomain One might "Question" that quote. I made a funny...

@ZombieGenesis I'd love to see a Zatanna and a Constantine. But then my main alt would benefit.

My Alts are idle due to family. But I'll be back soon.

I've tried that, but metrolook uses the theme.less file on the server. And I'm too ignorant of CSS code to figure out how to properly put a hack into Common.css. I've seen more than a few wikis (Both gaming and non-gaming) using the metrolook, and it was completely dark.

I've been tinkering with the code in the theme.less, but I am having a few issues. Basically I want to set it to a dark color scheme with white font and change the color of the weblinks. Has anyone fooled around enough with the skin to give me advice on how to tinker with it? I'm a total css n00b.

@Misadventure This is the plan going forward. Thus removing the need for the staffer to interact with me outside of the bare bones requirements.

@Sunny I'm not sure what attitude I have shown in my one single reply. But thank you for the advice.

@Sunny It's not about winning. This particular staffer does not like me at all. it is very clear in their interactions with me. So I'm trying to figure out away to continue to play.

How do you, as a player, deal with a member of staff that you have a very negative interaction with. Especially when you have asked that said staff refer requests to another member of staff to ensure some level of impartiality but are flat out refused?

Sure I can leave the game, but to me that means they win, and while that might be the end result, I would prefer to avoid it.

I don't think that was the purpose. When you play on a MUSH set in the middle ages, you can't just whip out a cellphone. It's a matter of setting. Remember that the Shadow Hunters are Angelic Half-Breeds. And while it leaves some room for interpretation, the Clave was founded back during the dumber ages of Christianity. And while the clave states they are beyond mundane religion, they still cling to some of the standards.

To me, I compare it the oWoD Werewolves. Gay is ok, just don't forget about your duty to race, breed bitch, breed. So while being gay was ok, if you didn't flaunt it. And that's kind of how I take the shadow hunter view.

It's ok to be gay. Just don't flaunt it, and if you are gay, still make with the babies.

YMMV.

That you misread or misunderstood their implication.

@Thenomain As I have come to learn, you probably were the only one to have that interpretation that statement, thus you have the problem... At least that's the impression I'm given by the game.

I did say it was... basic But yeah, speaking to the permissions issue, the room can always set attributes on itself, so as long as the room is !NO_COMMAND the room will run the command. But like Ashen said, probably smart to put some protections in place. I just threw that together on the fly.

@desc here=[ifelse(hasattr(%!,temp-desc),[u(temp-desc)],[u(perm-desc)])]

&cmd`desc here=$+desc *:@pemit %#=You have set the temporary description.;&Temp-desc %L=%0

&cmddescclear here=$+desc/clear:@pemit %#=You have cleared the temp desc.;&temp-desc %L

Now this is a very basic code. But feel free.

Hey Maia! I played Layla @ Monsters and Moshpits!

It really comes down to staff policy and policing. They can be abused, but so can the dark flag. The realities can be set so staff can see every reality at one hit, which is what I normally do. That way I can see everyone in the room. I also make sure that OOC commands are cross-Reality, so when someone in say 'umbra' uses OOC, it announces to EVERY Reality. I have also been known to put a tag in the room "OOC NOTE: Players present in alternate Reality." without giving any details to protect the players. Sure they might be harmlessly Rping in the Umbra, Hedge, etc. But that way all players are aware there is the possibility they are being watched.

@Lotherio That's the plan they have a FORM attribute. The problem lies in...

Form A - Base Form has the attribute: Appearance:3
Form B - Transformed form has the attribute: Appearance:2

The sheet for Form B should now reflect a total attribute of Appearance:5 (No this isn't like the WoD attribute it's a secondary attribute.)
I can make it merge attribute lists if they have no duplicates, but the hiccup is duplicate attributes..

For reference:

• &RP0attr`001 db=Appearance
• &rp0attr001rank db=3
• &rp1attr`002 db=Appearance
• &rp1attr002rank db=2

The number after the RP` indicates which form the stat is associated with. However, all forms other than 0, take into account that form's stats + Form 0's stats.

Ok, this is for a Non-WoD game.
I have characters that will under go a transformation. They have base stats in 'normal' form that carry over to 'transformed' form. The problem I can't seem to wrap my head around is how to deal with duplicate stats that should stack when in the transformed state.

Any ideas would be welcomed. I know the idea of doing a separate sheet for each form is a possibility but that would require adjusting every sheet when XP is spent on the base form. (Yes they can have multiple transformations.)

Are you on Frontier?

I only ask because they block 90% of all incoming connections to your computer through their system. Regardless of how you have the connection setup. Especially if you're on the DSL. I had this problem when I had Frontier. Changed ISPs and with the same equipment the setup worked with no problems.

@toreadorfool Nah. You had a much more diverse sheet until I helped you out a bit.
