Quoting and page-stretching, while annoying, is not what caused the problem. -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Happy Happy Joy Joy desperance.net - We're Everywhere ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

I disagree. Always wait for a moderator to lock/cleanse/delete the topic. RC, you did promise to never to do that again, and you have no idea how much trouble topics like that cause administrators - they block pruning, stat file rebuilding, and more. There will be punishments doled out, and you will be among the ones punished. -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Happy Happy Joy Joy desperance.net - We're Everywhere ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

Ace, the next time you decide to go on a BoE-playing jaunt, you'd do well to use this as a guide. I can see where both of you are coming from, and to each his own. Creator, your position on animal rights is not from being conservative, it is from being a farmer. -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Happy Happy Joy Joy Encyclopedia Ermariana - Trapped in the Closet ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

Each character has a behavior script. In one of the memory cells (usually the third), enter the number of the node that that person's dialogue begins at. -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Happy Happy Joy Joy Encyclopedia Ermariana - Trapped in the Closet ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

Each NPC script has a memory cell to link it to a part of the dialogue script - you need to enter the number of the starting dialogue nood in the third memory cell. Also, make sure that you've named the script correctly. -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Happy Happy Joy Joy Encyclopedia Ermariana - Trapped in the Closet ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

While this is no surprise to anyone who designs for BoE or the Arena, BoA would be made easier with a Scry Monster spell instead of having to sneak a peek at the scenario files, which is cheating in my book. -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Happy Happy Joy Joy Encyclopedia Ermariana - Trapped in the Closet ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

I'm pretty sure that Rentar is talking about future generations. It would take her pretty long to rebuild her power base and garner more support for another attack on the Empire. She's pretty much disgraced after A3. -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Happy Happy Joy Joy Encyclopedia Ermariana - Trapped in the Closet ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

I'd always assumed that they were the Thieves' Guild - you see them by Bremerton too guarding Skribbane, I think. I get scenario ideas by thinking about characters. I sketch out what I want the party to be and who I want them to meet, and by fleshing out the characters I can develop something much stronger and it basically writes itself. -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Happy Happy Joy Joy Encyclopedia Ermariana - Trapped in the Closet ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

Ereine ... that name sounds familiar. Alec was known as Thissa back then, Thuryl was known as LRTDeM, and someone was always pretending to be Jeff Vogel. -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Happy Happy Joy Joy Encyclopedia Ermariana - Trapped in the Closet ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

Not if it's a forced stairway. What *i says does work.

All of the ikonboard moderators joined early, along with some sneaky members that found the boards. That covers up to member 23. The boards were officially moved on October 5th, 2001. -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Happy Happy Joy Joy desperance.net - We're Everywhere ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

That wasn't my first post - I joined sometime in 1998, around the middle of the second season of the Arena. I sat out the third and entered in the fourth. My first post was on the scenario board in ... March/April 1998 about ... Rubacus? I remember when Leon Lin was a board regular and would answer people's questions. My favorite oldbie who's no longer around would have to be Caligula. -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Happy Happy Joy Joy Encyclopedia Ermariana - Trapped in the Closet ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

I joined in 2001, around when Djur did? There are some things wrong with that: I'm borderline between antiquity and Inside the Web. Djur joined somewhere in 2000. Aceron left either in late 1999 or early 2000, and Brett took over his BoE board. ITW went down in September 2000, spidweb came up in March 2001 and switched to UBB October 2001. I'd put the oldbie dividing line at 2001 too - just so it includes Saunders, Khoth, and Arctic. -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Happy Happy Joy Joy Encyclopedia Ermariana - Trapped in the Closet ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

If you don't have errors in your scripts, that problem never comes up! Seriously, though, the line numbers that BoA gives are useless anyway, and error-checking the whole script will turn up things you would have missed otherwise. -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Happy Happy Joy Joy Encyclopedia Ermariana - Trapped in the Closet ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!
