filter by language
Can anyone please tell me how I can filter off any non English topics from the unread total on the banner and prevent them on mass without having to individually open so they will go? they may be good content but unfortunately I am not bilingual so they just constant spam in my inbox. thx

RE: What's your motivation for your pledge pack?
I am a bit like Dragomok and lightspoon in that I do not have a pledge pack yet. I love the unique concept of the three planets and associated race gameplay elements proposed and I do want it to succeed, but there are so many practical matters that need to be worked through at this stage and there might be some unknown compromises required before the true structure of a final end game is seen. Three years to full release may be realistic, but it is a very long time in the real world.
It is a noble ideal to support things from the ground up, but if I am honest, I am probably more comfortable getting a Beta pack at a time when there is more product to see. So for the moment, I will continue to keep engaged in the community, keep abreast of ongoing development and watch this space. -
RE: Skeletons
@kungkaneru ah well, yes, they may not suffer from the other fleshy symptoms like kidney stones, granted, but as Mazikar so eloquently put: sticks and most other types would definitely hurt them!

RE: Skeletons
@kungkaneru Ah, but don't forget that serious hypercalcemia can also cause bone pain, confusion, lethargy, fatigue, anxiety and depression, so you could up with a bunch of bone idle heaps that belong in an ossuary.

RE: Will there be safe zones in cities?
@33hp it might be worth noting there is a subtle distinction between standard aggressive play and skilled assassination. Politics can be a dirty game and even 007 was licensed to kill? I live in a tourist area, but always tell our guests to be worldly wise.

RE: Mentor system
@jahlon Just had a look at your site, nice content.

RE: Mentor system
@logain indeed, that is why I would like to see any mentor system cover the supporting mechanisms: like how to run a successful guild or use external platforms like discord for instance, rather than game play itself. These do not undermine the concept of knowledge, but could potentially enrich the game experience as a whole.

RE: Mentor system
Although I would welcome some form of mentoring system, I would like it to extend beyond the basics of game play into wider dynamics of group/faction operation: including how to effectively use supporting mechanisms as discord: a platform I have only recently joined on finding fractured, but have yet to master. (Although I have played mmo's for a couple of years, for the most part it has only been as a solo player, or member of a pug.)
I find the best way I learn is through visual media: so perhaps as the game develops there could be a library heading, with video tutorials explaining such processes and would definitely appreciate an idiots guide about actually running a guild in earnest.
I will try doing a search through the previous posts to see if there is any mention of setting up a tutorial test area as part of future development, I.e. an area where newbies can try out and learn the basics of game play at there own pace without consequences in the real game.

RE: Ranking against total population
@logain Thanks , I will take a closer look at the criteria and the postings of those listed to see if I can develop the "right " habits.

RE: Ranking against total population
@logain …. thanks, that cheers me up no end, I had forgotten their was a random lottery element, hmmm.....odds are just 19,963 to 1... even less if you discount the hordes of members who already have one …….. Oh well, as the saying goes ..."You have to be in to win." Cheers.

RE: Ranking against total population
@logan thanks for the link.: at least that clears up one unknown on total pop as I can now say with conviction that at the time of writing this I am ranked 3918 out of 19,963 [(831 x 24) + 19] if you count Prometheus etc.
So I'm not going to hold my breath for a pre-alpha key.
And as to all those who also replied. thanks for engaging and I do agree that game development is far more pressing than work on the foundation, but I did like the idea. -
RE: Ranking against total population
@eurav...... hmmm, you make some very valid points, I have noticed many of the thread are either old, or tend to be rather trivial in nature: I suppose it is a symptom of accumulating points from posts, even to say hello and probably what most watchers are thinking about my own submissions, lol. You are right of course, the dev's won't have time and there is no real incentive to justify the allocation of such a valuable resource to such matters........ I keep forgetting that unlike the forum itself, the foundation is primarily a vehicle for pre- play interaction and may become somewhat redundant on release etc.
Thanks for taking the time to reply. Cheers. -
Ranking against total population
I would be interest to know what other people think about asking if your rank could to be expressed against the running total population? My thoughts are that if it was possible, it would give increased meaning to us lesser mortal lower down the evolutionary ladder: seeing that I am ranked 4080 out of a theoretical 40,000, or whatever the population currently was, would help put things into greater perspective for us lowly minions ?
It would also be an clearly visible track of the population growth for everyone to quickly see and in a very logical place.
Comments welcome. -
RE: Leaderboard rank missing.
@specter , Great news that its fixed, thanks for flagging up.
What are your thoughts about making a denominator available for this figure ? i.e. if your rank was expressed against the running total population it may give increased meaning to us lesser mortal : seeing I am ranked 4080 out of 40,000 would help put things into perspective for us lowly minions?
It would also be an easy track on population growth for everyone to see in a very logical place. -

RE: Access denied
@kralith Thanks for responding, yes it was a global question with the specific link cited as an example. Good to know it is open to all...…..and that even a whisper can be heard. Cheers

Access denied
While I was browsing Q & A pages to see if anyone had previously raised the topic of allowing guild masters to upload a personalised/custom banner icon, I came across an article titled "Banners" which contained links
(Take a look here: Suggestion | Site | Custom Guild symbol type) that when I clicked then overlaid the following message:Access Denied
You seem to have stumbled upon a page that you do not have access toIs there higher tier access required to certain questions i.e. messenger/consol that can't be accessed by a whisperer?

RE: Main menu banner missing from forum pages
@jetah Isn't knowledge wonderful: something that appeared to be a decorative inert object until you know how to use it !
I suppose it is in-keeping with the concept of the game (a quest for knowledge) but in this case a little knowledge was dangerous as I applied the same knowledge I found on other pages. Might be nice to keep it standard and just do what it says on the tin like the others, but that's just personal preference. Thanks for passing on the knowledge.
