IRC log for #sporewiki on 20150408

00:01.00TechnobliteratorOluapPlayer, thanks ^.^ I dunno if you know much about Top Gear but it was a partial spoof on that
00:01.18OluapPlayerI know it's a show about cars
00:01.24TechnobliteratorI imagine Naktor'zak as seriously insane since, well, he's spent a few centuries stuck in a tanm
00:01.27Technobliteratortank*
00:01.40TechnobliteratorI wasn't sure if using the Herame was the correct thing to do
00:01.48OluapPlayerWell that's kinda the only wrong thing in the section
00:01.53OluapPlayerNaktor's like 30 or so
00:02.15OluapPlayerHe's supposed to be the youngest of the Warbosses after Ray'loth
00:02.21TechnobliteratorOh. Eh, it might feel like centuries to him though
00:02.28OluapPlayerMight do
00:02.43OluapPlayerIt helps make him act dramatic anyway
00:02.46OluapPlayerNo biggie
00:02.48TechnobliteratorMhm
00:03.10TechnobliteratorI might do Zalk'don's next or something, I'm not sure
00:03.45OluapPlayerI was interested in doing Zalk'don
00:03.47OluapPlayerBut if you want go ahead
00:04.15TechnobliteratorOh, you can do it instead if you like
00:04.26TechnobliteratorI have no major preference as to whose I do next
00:04.54OluapPlayerYou could get Grak'tona or Gol'thabex done

00:05.39WoodYo
00:05.44Woodwait
00:05.54Wood_PulpThere we go
00:06.06DrodoEmpireHey
00:06.11TechnobliteratorYeah, see, I'd have done those first as I have the most ideas for those, but I wasn't sure if it was best to do Warbosses first and Leedas after
00:06.12Technobliteratorhi
00:06.16Wood_PulpApparently spaces don't work in IRC nicknames
00:06.29OluapPlayerI don't think it matters much
00:06.33OluapPlayerJust as long as Fre'kloar is last
00:07.21TechnobliteratorFair enough
00:07.35TechnobliteratorAre you planning on doing Brag'klogga's?
00:08.06TechnobliteratorI imagined his being related to his normal Loron self somehow
00:08.31Technobliteratorthe one who was killed by Fre'kloar in Da Rebellion
00:10.49OluapPlayerNot really no
00:10.55OluapPlayerYou can have him if you want
00:12.35OluapPlayerMe and Hachi are currently writting Knar'gank's section. Or at least we'll try and get it done today as I'm having to use a laptop with limited battery
00:14.18TechnobliteratorOooh, nice :o
00:14.26TechnobliteratorI'm reading Da Rebellion atm
00:14.29TechnobliteratorI got nostalgic
00:14.37OluapPlayerhur
00:14.45OluapPlayerAll those bareboned descriptions
00:14.48TechnobliteratorDa Saga is one of the few fictions I can say I'm really proud of writing
00:15.05Technobliteratorsee, bareboned descriptions makes sense for Loron fiction
00:15.14TechnobliteratorIt's more about the dialogue and the humour
00:15.14OluapPlayerI like my Loron meaty hur
00:15.32OluapPlayerAnd yeah Da Saga was fun to write
00:16.07TechnobliteratorSecond Borealis War we did a decent job on. That and Da Saga are among the few fictions I'm really proud of. Others are just meh filler.
00:21.45Technobliteratorahahahahaha
00:21.55Technobliteratorkal'kuir's section makes me lol
00:22.17OluapPlayerhur I'm glad it does
00:27.20TechnobliteratorIn hindsight, Jol'kiar probably could've made Da Rogue Boyz waaay before Fre'kloar did. Looking at Da Rebellion now, it seems to have started with Fre'kloar being a spoilt child, more or less.
00:27.47TechnobliteratorBut come to think of it, given that this is the Loron we're talking about, yeah that...kinda fits
00:29.25TechnobliteratorIt's funny how quickly Knar'gank switched sides
00:29.27OluapPlayerhur
00:29.36TechnobliteratorAll things considered, he's surprisingly loyal :o
00:29.40OluapPlayerKnar'gank - cant be dealin with dis
00:31.11OluapPlayerJust a question
00:31.22OluapPlayerDid you watch that Batman movie, the one with Bane?
00:31.34TechnobliteratorYup!
00:31.43TechnobliteratorI watched it about 4 times or so
00:31.48OluapPlayerThat's good, because Knar's section has a reference to it hur
00:33.52Technobliteratoroooooh nice
00:33.57TechnobliteratorI love Bane references
00:35.41TechnobliteratorHuh, I forgot that Rel'larutina knew Zaarkhun on a personal level
00:36.01TechnobliteratorAlso, she was far, far more tolerant of the Loron back then...
00:36.14OluapPlayerOf course she was, she's a Norol
00:36.24Technobliteratorwait, wasn't she an unnamed Norol until we retconned to make that Norol her?
00:36.49Technobliteratoroh, and then there's the whole Norol being less nice when they get older thing too
00:37.06OluapPlayerYeah
00:37.08OluapPlayerTo both
00:45.08Technobliteratorok, I do have to like how stubbornly Loron stick to their traditions
00:45.26TechnobliteratorBut then, I guess none of them are bright enough to really oppose them
00:46.52Technobliteratorahahahaha
00:47.07Technobliteratorjol'kiar and fre'kloar's last words to each other
00:50.17OluapPlayerTechnobliterator: Publishing now
00:50.26Technobliterator:O

02:32.51AeoHe's still around. I'd consider doing another review with him.
02:33.20HachimanWell I have updated and revised Hachiman's page since his review of him
02:33.26HachimanAs in, significantly
02:33.36HachimanA complete overhaul, if you will
03:11.34*** join/#sporewiki Patriot868 (44e35645@gateway/web/freenode/ip.68.227.86.69)
03:31.56AeoI've gotten the idea to create a saterical empire based on the tropes and cliches on this wiki.
03:32.04AeoIt'd never be used. It'd just be a joke.
03:32.35Knight_AlienDa Mlg Imperium of dankhood.
03:33.25AeoI was going to go with "The Edgelords of Demicath"
03:42.05AeoThe Edgelords of Demicath are a medium-sized Empire located in the Milky Way galaxy. They are known throughout the galaxy for their extremely contradictory and confused attitude towards absolutely everything. No one has managed to make a lick of sense of anything they’ve ever done. One second they’re saving the universe and one second they’re committing mass genocide. As far as anyone can tell, they do both for no reason whatso
03:42.44Aeo==Military== The entire point of the Demicathian military is to balance the “scales of grimdark” in the heart of their home planet. To do this, they must commit sufficient numbers of heroic and horrifying acts. The previous statement at the top of this page that they do these things for no reason whatsoever is probably the result of a ret-con that the user hasn’t bothered to edit the wiki in correspondence to. Who the fuck know
03:43.48Aeo“Something… enigmatic… and vague with… lots of… ellipses…” - The Xhodocto
04:10.27Charles_MurrayNobody agrees with you that they're cliché. o.o I'm not sure you understand our fictions if you're making such innacurate generalizations about them.

04:32.16TekDroidHello
04:33.26AbysswalkerHey.
04:36.20Charles_MurrayHey!
05:09.04AbysswalkerSuppose it is time to write up a page. Im gonna look at some others for inspiriation on how to list things. Anyone have links that might help?
05:10.52*** join/#sporewiki drom (~dpessimis@unaffiliated/drom)
05:15.21AeoAbysswalker: http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction:Aeoneonatrix or any other page. You can just copy the format.
05:17.35AbysswalkerThanks.
05:21.37dromHello
05:21.46AbysswalkerHello jim.
05:27.35dromLife's too short for IRC now. See ya.
05:55.18AbysswalkerAll hail (Empire name here)!
06:17.35TekDroidI really love how much of a political mess I made the structure of Farengeto. XD
06:18.35TekDroidFor example, see this chart: http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/spore/images/c/ce/FTC_infographic.png/revision/latest?cb=20150319024513
06:20.27AeoI've seen almost the same chart about the EU
06:20.42TekDroidThat was the inspiration
06:23.20TekDroidAll kinds of wierdness not visible too. For instance, the Quadrant colonies are both territories of the Farengeto, and a separate member state. And the Cyrannian colonies have their capital and half their territory in the Milky Way but are considered "extragalactic"
06:23.36TekDroid*Farengeto Republic
06:25.10AeoWill the Farengeto's atheism be at all dented by the Aeoneonatrix dissapearing for 15+ years and reappearing on the other side of the galaxy?
06:25.33AeoThat's kind of a "Yeah, the Cleanser exists," moment.
06:27.03AbysswalkerDoes the fictionverse use the same 'Galactic Code' as spore? Like.. no super weapons that destroy planets or stars?
06:27.13AbysswalkerJust making sure.
06:27.55AeoThe fictionverse hasn't had anything to do with spore since 2009.
06:28.02AeoSo, no.
06:28.07TekDroidBy that point they'd be well aware of Essence though, having had extensive contact with the intergalactic ongoings. It might stir up up a pro-Cleanser movement, especially in central Delcath.
06:29.00TekDroidThe Sudal Accords probably would have some clause amended in that might cause problems for it.
06:30.18TekDroidThe Sudal Accords being a controversial anti-religious treaty created to fight the Gargator and religious extremists. Plus a bit extra.
06:31.29AeoCleanser - Fuk ur treaty. Missionary party.
06:31.51AeoMissionaries - *Rave*
06:37.20TekDroidThough it doesn't ban missionaries or practicing religion, it does ban foreign missionaries within territory of an Accords nation. Part of that Gargator-induced anti-religious stuff.
06:38.47AeoDoes the Cleanser himself count as a foreign missionary?
06:39.01AeoAlso, does the Mardor Merchant Republic have its own page?
06:39.41TekDroidThat got retconned out. OfficerJackal has many short-lived Katarian fictions. XD
06:41.33AeoWhat one needs to keep in mind is that the Mardor will never really want to not torture people. It'd be like all humans swearing off sex.
06:44.56TekDroidFor now Mardor are basically just a highly autonomous state within the FTC that has no voting rights in the greater Coalition.
06:48.03AbysswalkerLet them vote. I don't know who they are but alien rights!
06:49.14TekDroidThey're genocidal maniacs.
06:54.02AeoFalse.
06:54.13AeoThey are SLAVERS and TORTURERS.
06:54.24AeoThey've only committed genocide once.
06:55.48AeoThey feel orgasmic pleasure from the act of seeing another person in suffering. This led them to the policy of capturing members of lesser races, including the Aeoneonatrix for 12 years, and torturing them for recreational purposes.

14:32.16Wormy_awayThat is the side effect of our biology matrix, which had evolved purely for Savannah matters

14:33.10Wormy_awayI always give the DCP's craft that description when at sublight
14:38.49Wormy_awayWhat I struggle to comprehend is the raw energy within a black hole
14:39.25Wormy_awayRead "Penrose diagram illustrating the cause of mass inflation"  http://jila.colorado.edu/~ajsh/insidebh/realistic.html
14:39.57Wormy_awayIt is surely the most furious thing the human mind has yet to have concieved
14:41.41Wormy_away"The black hole particle accelerator easily reaches and exceeds energies comparable to those in the Big Bang. What does Nature do with such a machine?"
14:42.02AdmiralPanda"The hypothetical perfect Predator game is basically Arkham Asylum without the moral sensibility after Batman kisses an angle-grinder"
14:42.16AdmiralPandaYahtzee Croshaw, everybody
14:42.19Hachimanolol
14:42.33HachimanTo be fair Arkham Asylum-style Predator game would be nice
14:47.43AdmiralPandajust re-watched his Alien vs Predator review and he basically described the entire predator campaign as a shittier version of Arkham Asylum
14:52.05HachimanThe Alien campaign was seizure simulator
14:52.23HachimanOnly good part for me was the Marine campaign and even then that is mediocre

15:03.13dromhello
15:05.06GhelHello.
15:05.15dromLooks the chicken kebab got bored of terrorizing my intestines now.
15:05.29AeoHi
15:06.11Wormy_awayThese things can "blow up" spacetime http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pp-wave_spacetime
15:07.13GhelAre you specifically referring to the "wave of death" there?
15:08.02Wormy_awayYeah, the one OA has http://www.orionsarm.com/eg-article/5062fd4d7f5cb
15:11.39Wormy_awayWaves of death, mass inflation, and maybe cosmic string intersections are the most destructive things I can think of
15:12.09Wormy_awaythen black hole mergers and gamma ray bursts
15:12.40Comrade_Vinny*Wormy_away: Composeed Interests
15:12.46Wormy_awayHypermatter annihilation is probably between the two

15:15.10dromda
15:15.24Wormy_awayHm I think the Xeelee used cosmic inflation as a weapon
15:15.33Wormy_awayOr proto-Xeelee
15:16.41dromI know that this sounds radical, but I imagine a object those mesh is made of spacetime.
15:17.31Wormy_awayVoidships in OA are
15:17.55Wormy_awayAnd I remember the First Ones in B5 using a similar voidcraft
15:18.49dromPardon, OA?
15:19.04Wormy_awayXeelee themselves are made of living spacetime discontinuities
15:19.12Wormy_awayOrion's Arm
15:19.25dromAh
15:19.52dromNgh this fire alarm makes me want to smash it into pieces with a broom.
15:21.52Wormy_awayAnyway the Xeelee are probably the most powerful races of hard SF, along with equal contenders (as for the Downstreamers its hard to say what the Xeelee's upper limit is they could be equal)
15:22.20Wormy_awayMost of said equals are other fictions by Baxter
15:22.57Wormy_awayJust about everything in the Xeelee Sequence is OP
15:24.06Wormy_awayLife and complexity in it inhabit every area of space, time, and everey magnitude of energy/mass scales and power

16:51.02ImperiosHello
16:51.33dromHello
16:51.46AlexisHDesilvaSo I went on this site to look at consequence trait things, and I just discovered you guys had a fiction universe thing? I read the guidelines and I want to start but i'm not sure how?
16:52.08AlexisHDesilvaLike, it's a huge place it seems so I'm pretty nervous
16:52.42ImperiosYou're from New York?
16:52.52AlexisHDesilvaYeah, upstate though. Why?
16:52.59HachimanImperios: One thing that is gonna bother me about revising and updating the Zazane is the fact that I never came up with a language theme or standard naming convention for them
16:53.06ImperiosYa
16:53.31ImperiosAlexisHDesilva: Nevermind, just asking :P
16:53.35dromSome places were used to be restricted, but they are to present day all open so many choices. But we can help you to find the most fitting place.
16:53.36ImperiosIf you want to start, just make your own fiction
16:53.51HachimanAlexisHDesilva: There are rules and stuff around the place, I'll go grab them
16:53.58AlexisHDesilvaOkay thank you
16:54.31AlexisHDesilvaThe most nerve-wracking part is how I would get my little species of space aliens involved in the universe.  Like I mentioned, seems like a huge place and all with all the galaxies in it.
16:54.50dromAsk us and we help you to pick a place.
16:54.56dromwe'll*
16:54.57HachimanIt is quite large but fiction growth comes from collaborating and roleplaying with other users and their aliens
16:55.38AlexisHDesilvaI guess. So, would you guys be able to help me pick a place?
16:56.59OluapWorkerhttp://spore.wikia.com/wiki/SporeWiki:Fiction_guidelines#Finding_Your_Place these are your options
16:57.06dromMost of the now existing galaxies have different grounds and provides different attributes. So the "perfect place" depends on your idea, context and concept of your fiction.
16:57.20Hachimanhttp://spore.wikia.com/wiki/SporeWiki:Fiction_Universe This page is basically the thing you need most when starting
16:57.38Hachimanhttp://spore.wikia.com/wiki/SporeWiki:Fiction_guidelines Oh and this
16:57.46AlexisHDesilvaHachiman, I saw that first page. Read it and got intimidated :P
16:57.55AlexisHDesilvaGive me a sec to read everything, brb
16:58.20dromHachiman: He said that he already read the guidelines.
16:58.47AlexisHDesilvaNot the guidelines, the universe one
16:58.50AlexisHDesilvaReading guidelines now
16:59.07dromRight, take your time.
16:59.13HachimanImperios: So now all that I have for the Zazane are just a bunch of random rough and guttal words rather than any actual linguistics or conventions which annoys me a bit#
16:59.24ImperiosRiiight
16:59.34HachimanIf I wanted to change something now it'd be too late because we already have a bunch of Zazane characters
17:00.00ImperiosWell what exactly do you want
17:00.16AlexisHDesilvaOK: So essentially I have to be kind.  And I do *not* need permission to start in Andromeda, right?
17:00.27HachimanNope no permission#
17:00.37HachimanImperios: That's the thing, I am not sure hur
17:00.38ImperiosI think you need it from me
17:00.44AlexisHDesilvaAlso, is my species up to some sort of prettyness standard to not be made fun of? http://www.spore.com/sporepedia#qry=sast-501010524808
17:00.45HachimanNo he doesn't
17:00.51ImperiosRight
17:00.52HachimanAndromeda is a free galaxy
17:00.58AlexisHDesilvaGot it
17:01.00ImperiosI'd have given permission anyway so don't worry hur
17:01.05AlexisHDesilvaOK
17:01.51ImperiosHachiman: I do not think most SporeWiki species outside a few like the Kicath or the Aeoneonatrix have any defined naming practices
17:01.58ImperiosOh and Koldenweltian humans
17:01.59OluapWorkerDon't worry about aesthetics, we have plenty of goofy creatures running around the fictionverse
17:02.27AlexisHDesilvaOh okay
17:02.31OluapWorkerNot saying yours is goofy but you get my point
17:02.45HachimanI could have Low and High names for the Zazane characters actually
17:02.47AlexisHDesilvaYeah
17:03.00ImperiosLike with Radeons I just came up with something full of digraphs and divided consonants
17:03.14OluapWorkerComing up with languages is for nerdos
17:03.20OluapWorkerrandom name generator da best
17:03.28ImperiosSometimes with Semitic or Greek influences
17:03.42ImperiosBut you see Semitic influences in everything I make anyway
17:04.01HachimanI dunno what sorta influences I would include in the Zazane
17:04.05ImperiosHachiman: So plebs name & glorious Zazane master race name
17:04.12HachimanYeah
17:04.25Technobliteratorhttp://www.buzzfeed.com/ryanhatesthis/a-viral-message-of-tolerance-and-train-safety?bffb&utm_term=4ldqpgp#.ndYk3a4Bx rofl
17:04.41HachimanLike what sorta language do you affiliate with names like Tyraz Breek, Keldar Taran, Savas, Hork Zando, Kol Daren, etc
17:05.04ImperiosAlright you want something unusual for them right
17:05.06TechnobliteratorMonetSemi, new Deus Ex :o
17:05.28ImperiosIn theory you could give them a name order that is not based on Western European tradition
17:05.30MonetSemiI heard
17:06.01TechnobliteratorI'm pumped
17:06.06HachimanHow do you mean?
17:06.11ImperiosPersonal name + Second personal name + Dad's family name is not a universal tradition after all
17:06.15ImperiosLike my name does not follow it
17:06.49ImperiosMine is Personal name + Dad's name with "ovich" suffixed to it + Dad's family name
17:07.13OluapWorkerImperiovinski Impovich
17:07.25ImperiosHur
17:07.31HachimanHm that is a fair point
17:07.54HachimanSo it would be Tyraz [second personal name here] Breek
17:08.04ImperiosAn East Asian standard is Family name + Personal name, the Chinese and the Koreans also have a special list based on Confucian tradition et cetera et cetera from which they pick names I think
17:08.19OluapWorkerBreek Breek
17:08.23OluapWorkerTyraz Cheeki Breeki
17:08.27Hachimanolol
17:08.29ImperiosAlso Koreans have a secret second surname
17:08.36HachimanSsh
17:08.38HachimanIt's a secret
17:08.45ImperiosWhich is considered to be more private
17:09.13ImperiosIt's a clan name and refers to the city from which one's family originates
17:09.28ImperiosI can tell you mine hur
17:09.33Technobliteratoroh man
17:09.37Technobliteratorwhat happened to Robot Wars ;_;
17:09.40TechnobliteratorI loved that show
17:09.51HachimanSo Zazane have three names in the order of [first personal name] [second personal name] [father's family name] with two versions for Low and High Zanatai Common
17:10.02dromMonetSemi: If the NS' native language uses a vertical text layout but not the same flow, would it be easier for the DI to comprehend texts in NS' native language Ogrumkni? They doesn't necessarily need to know the language, I mean if they can easily adapt to an other text layout.
17:10.09HachimanHigh being used for more personal interactions, Low for more informal maybe

17:10.57MonetSemiHachiman: Doesn't have to be the father's family name.
17:10.58HachimanThat is English naming convention

17:11.57ImperiosHachiman: Yes it is hur, but even Western countries have different traditions
17:11.59AlexisHDesilvaGot it, so maybe 2750?
17:12.02OluapWorkerI thought it was 2804
17:12.03ImperiosI mean take Oluap
17:12.09ImperiosOluap probably has a long-ass name
17:12.14MonetSemiIn Scandianavian tradition a person's family name is either [father's firstname]-sson or [mother's firstname]-dotr, depending on the child's gender.
17:12.23OluapWorkerWell
17:12.28OluapWorkerIt's 5 words long

17:13.00Hachimanfug
17:13.00ImperiosMaybe Low Zazane surnames and names could be more similar to nicknames in meaning?
17:13.56MonetSemiI remember being told by Icelandics on my trip there that Icelandic phone books list alphabetically by first name, and multiple people with the same firstname are listed alphabetically by surname.
17:13.57dromMonetSemi: The dotr is traditional in Iceland and Norway as I know.
17:13.58ImperiosMost Ukrainian and Belorussian surnames that are not identical to Russian surnames are basically random words in Ukrainian
17:13.59HachimanSo "Tyraz" would be derived from a word or a shortened/diverged from of his actual name, like William = Bill?
17:14.08dromBut I haven't seen any Danes or Swedes use that.
17:14.09ImperiosThe Ukrainian/Belorussian girls I know all have surnames like this
17:14.50MonetSemidrom: Wasn't Iceland colonised by Danish Vikings?
17:15.08ImperiosVeronica "Twin", Alyona "Great Army", Xenia "Weed"... yes their surnames translate like this
17:15.15ImperiosBoth in Russian and Ukrainian and Belorussian
17:15.20Hachiman>Xenia "Weed"
17:15.31dromMonetSemi: The word "Dane" grinds my gears. Use Norse
17:15.57ImperiosThat K-Pop fangirl from Ukraine I met in 2014
17:15.58OluapWorkerSnoop Xenia
17:15.59MonetSemidrom: I said Dane because I was sure the cuntry had a history with Denmark.
17:16.05MonetSemicountry*
17:16.08ImperiosHer surname literally means "Invasive weed" or something
17:16.20OluapWorkerOh wow
17:16.25OluapWorkerBit ride
17:16.32ImperiosNot my fault hur
17:16.55MonetSemiHachiman: It's an interesting idea.
17:16.57dromNope, it was Norweigans
17:17.03MonetSemiRight
17:17.14dromBut it was ruled by Denmark though.
17:17.14ImperiosNot everyone can have a fancy surname like me hur
17:17.37dromFirst Norway then Denmark.
17:17.39MonetSemiMaybe Tyra'z name could also be derived from "puny" "diminuitive" or "feeble"
17:17.41ImperiosThen there was that very prominent Ukrainian politician whose surname was "Moskal"
17:17.52ImperiosWhich is an ethnic slur in Ukrainian
17:18.11MonetSemiMaybe Zazane earn their names if they have meaning?
17:18.14Imperioshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hennadiy_Moskal
17:18.30Imperioshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moskal
17:18.36HachimanI was gonna say, only reputable Zazane with noble careers have High Zanatai names
17:18.56ImperiosThat's basically if a white American had a surname "N****rson"
17:19.06Hachimanolol
17:19.26dromSo dark that it was sent to jail.
17:19.55MonetSemiTo me Zantai sounds quite gutteral and to-the-point.
17:20.03HachimanYeah it is guttural
17:20.13dromImperios: Dick is also a name in US.
17:20.25ImperiosYeah but Dick is not an ethnic slur
17:20.27MonetSemiDick Cheney hur.
17:21.00MonetSemiBig long-syllable words are impractical on the battlefield or on the hunt
17:22.28dromhttp://www.oddee.com/_media/imgs/articles2/a98527_yearbook-name_7.jpg
17:22.36HachimanSo Tyraz Breek would translate to something like (hypothetically) Thyrazan Basadhrin Khabreek
17:22.56HachimanTyraz Breek being the Low Common, Thyrazan Khabreek being the High Common
17:23.22MonetSemiTyraz - At least my name is eloquent.
17:23.39dromImperios: http://www.oddee.com/_media/imgs/articles2/a98527_yearbook-name_4-f-you.jpg
17:24.13HachimanThe second name in the High Common naming convention could actually reflect profession
17:24.54MonetSemiHmm. If a word like "shyrak" can mean anything between "dump", "twat" and "waste of space", Zantai could be a language that lacks  symonyms.
17:25.01ImperiosYa
17:25.11MonetSemiOr at least, does not have very many
17:25.11ImperiosDoes not happen in languages
17:26.08ImperiosOne way or another synonyms always exist, albeit different languages may define things differently
17:26.11dromMonetSemi: Have a language that a word translates to thousands of symonyms, just because the speakers don't want to use the same word again until next day.
17:26.20MonetSemi"shyrak" I guess could be directly translated as either "disgusting" or "worthless"
17:26.53AlexisHDesilvaOK, so I created my fiction's page.  I hope I didn't totally screw it up: http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction:VanGreene_Empire
17:27.01ImperiosVanGreene Empire
17:27.04Imperiosdino would be happy
17:27.16AlexisHDesilvaDid I steal a name by accident? :s
17:27.23Imperios>van Greene
17:27.25ImperiosHe's Dutch
17:27.27ImperiosAnyway
17:27.28AlexisHDesilvaOHHHH
17:27.34AlexisHDesilvaI live in what was New Amsterdam
17:27.40AlexisHDesilvaHudson Valley :)
17:27.48AlexisHDesilvaSo Rip Van Winkle and Greene County, NY
17:27.55ImperiosAnd I live in a city that was designed after Amsterdam after our Tsar visited it
17:27.59ImperiosSo yeah we're all slightly Dutch hur
17:28.02AlexisHDesilvaCoolll
17:28.05dromAlexisHDesilva: NEW SWEDEN, GIB BACK OUR CLAY
17:28.11AlexisHDesilvaXD
17:28.12MonetSemiAlexi: For a minute their I thought you meant AMsterdam -> Financial District NY
17:28.22ImperiosGIB BACK ALASKA OR WE WILL CRIMEA IT TO DEATH
17:28.29AlexisHDesilva:P Whoops
17:28.30HachimanSo now I need to come up with High Zanatai Common names for Zazane characters now
17:28.32HachimanGoody
17:28.47AlexisHDesilvaI just wanted to be nice for my New York State roots ^_^
17:28.49HachimanAnd also figure out which occasions are appropriate for using Low or High Common
17:28.53MonetSemiSo was New Amsterdam the name of the provice before it was occupied by the British Empire?
17:28.59AlexisHDesilvaYeah
17:29.14MonetSemiI only knewof New Amsterdam the city.
17:29.30AlexisHDesilvaMaybe it was New Holland. I'm on Spring Break so who cares really? /s
17:30.16ImperiosAnyway
17:30.24MonetSemiI'm curious. Is it true that most of New York State is smal ltowns and farmland with only NYC being the biggest metropolis by far?
17:30.25OluapWorkerYou don't need
17:30.26ImperiosThat page is nice, though layout is a bit whacked
17:30.27OluapWorkerYou just can
17:30.34AlexisHDesilvaI figured
17:30.41AlexisHDesilvaAnd thanks
17:30.59AlexisHDesilvaMonet, it's mostly small towns for sure. Albany and Buffalo are big though
17:31.26dromhttp://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/d2/Nieuw_Nederland_and_Nya_Sverige.svg/240px-Nieuw_Nederland_and_Nya_Sverige.svg.png
17:31.28drom*cringes*
17:31.30MonetSemiReminds me of England.
17:31.43AlexisHDesilvaI guess
17:31.48ImperiosGenerally
17:31.53AlexisHDesilvaI prefer being in the small towns
17:31.53ImperiosDo not use = Stuff =
17:32.00AlexisHDesilvaGot it
17:32.01ImperiosRather, write == Stuff ==
17:32.10ImperiosThere always have to be two =s or more
17:32.13AlexisHDesilvaSo just add extra = to everything
17:32.22dromImperios: Why?
17:32.28ImperiosAlso in general history comes first, and then comes everything else
17:32.33AlexisHDesilvaOkay
17:32.40MonetSemidrom: The title created by = = does not come with a nedit utton
17:32.44Imperiosdrom: Because = Categories like this = Do not show "edit" signs
17:32.51dromI see.
17:33.16AlexisHDesilvaMuch better ^^
17:33.45MonetSemiHachiman: Perhaps High Common names are used aroudn close friends, family or partners?
17:33.57HachimanYeah that makes sense
17:34.38MonetSemiTelling someone your High Common nname could be comparable to sharing a personal secret.
17:38.40dromSpeaking of personal names. Sovereignty (the Andromedan) has only one single form of identity. First name and surname. But the names are usually very long, to solve that, they are given a shorter name combined by their longer names. Culture doesn't matter so much aslong the name can be easily related to their full name.
17:41.05dromPrior their adaption to the Andromeda galaxy and the DI being the first empire they get in touch, also supported by the fact Dracid is a very widespread and popular language in Andromeda, they can also bear "Dracid names" which are either the first 4-8 letters of their first or given name.
17:41.13dromgot*
17:42.44dromMonetSemi: That bring me the question, how are the Imperium citizens given names?
17:43.07MonetSemidrom: Varies with province.
17:43.24MonetSemiDraconis have three names: A personal name, a brood name and a house name.
17:44.48MonetSemipersonal and brood names are given at hatching, and personal names have some measure of meaning to them.
17:45.39MonetSemiBrood names come from the mother you were born to while house names change depending on politics.
17:47.09MonetSemiIn a marraige ceremony, the name of the dominant house is adopted by members of the leser house that is marrying.
17:48.26dromHouse names were also used frequently in NS as a symbol of higher social standing and privilegium. But prior the expansive developments, meaning of the house names have reduced to inofficial bragging rights.
17:51.22dromIt's not out of question that Sovereignty citizens take your novelty statues unseriously.
17:52.17MonetSeminovelty statues?
17:52.35dromstatus
17:53.21dromand it's supposed to be nobility but I didn't bother to check up the spelling used an other word.
17:53.42dromAnd I don't bother checking my grammar anymore.
17:53.52MonetSemiNobility is *very* serious in the Imperium - houses gain power by being elected to run planets, subsectors and sectors, but a figurehead is only chosen after the election results have come in.
17:59.55dromMost of the cabinet governors are usually loyalists elected by the former leaders-in-power and current leader. Most of them have roots of nobility before the upper-class stopped playing a weighing role in the society.

18:08.02Hachiman"It's set two years after the events of Human Revolution and sees Adam Jensen join forces with an Interpol-funded task force aiming to hunt down and capture augmented terrorists in a world now fearful of augmented humans." - Description of Deus Ex: Mankind Divided from Gamnesia
18:08.11HachimanSo it's Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance
18:08.49dromBut less Japanese
18:09.40HachimanAugmented guy joins up with a third-party taskforce to kill other augmented guys that are terrorizing the modern world via misusing their augmentations

18:09.51MonetSemiis mor elegal*
18:10.44MonetSemiTrue but for half of Revengeance Maverick was not doing what was expected of it a a business.
18:12.03MonetSemiJensen's task force being Interpol-funded gives him a lot of political freedom due to Interpol's connections in international politics,
18:12.52dromMy conpiracy senses are tingling
18:13.04MonetSemiWell duh
18:13.51Wormy_awayMonet:  You once showed me a scene in MGS which is based in a country of Africa experiencing prosperity, then a cyborg attacks.  I can't find this scene anywhere
18:13.57Tek0516O.o Space Engine does not like me going near this thing.

18:14.28Wormy_awayFrom which game?
18:14.35MonetSemiRevengeance
18:14.49Wormy_awayI liked it because it made swords useful again against modern weaponry
18:14.50MonetSemiThen again after the infiltration of Tai-Yung Medical in Human Revolution, Jensen was effectively acting independantly

18:23.09HachimanAlso one bad thing about Mankind Divided
18:23.18Wormy_awayEither there's a way in the code line to make SE start from somewhere less offensive, but I might have finished the game last time that was in a hard place
18:23.51Wormy_awayOr, I'll have to uninstall and install again
18:24.02HachimanIIRC Jensen had to make a choice at the end of Human Revolution, the fact this game is set in an apocalyptic hellhole either way shows your choice does not matter in the end because same conclusion

18:28.08MonetSemiWe all knew Jensen's attempts to provide a bright future for mankind were kinda hollow considering how depressing and divided human society was in 2052.

18:45.42AlexisHDesilvaGot it
18:46.59AlexisHDesilvaHow will I know if any of my messages get responded to?
18:54.45Technobliteratorjust check Special:RecentChanges
18:55.14AlexisHDesilvaThanks
18:55.39Technobliteratoreditors should regularly check that, but sadly, not enough do
18:58.25Wormy_awayTechnobliterator:  Doesn't help that Wikia hides it
18:58.31TechnobliteratorThey don't
18:59.15MonetSemiWell sort-of, you usually have ot go though recent wiki activity to see recent changes
18:59.15Wormy_awayThey've changed the format and arrangement of the CSS to focus more on advertisement and social networking, thats why there are less dedicated wikieditors than there was.
18:59.45Wormy_awayThere are more users, but more dedicated wiki-people?  No
19:00.02CyrannianI just have it saved in my favourites.
19:00.10MonetSemiThat recent Monster Hunter advert kills my loading speed >:(
19:00.17Wormy_awayYeah, I have the RC in my bookmarks
19:00.18TechnobliteratorIt's right there in the top navigation
19:00.20CyrannianSince wiki activity doesn't show edits to the fiction namespace.
19:00.21Technobliterator:   |
19:00.57Wormy_awayBut most users expect things these days rto be right there to be accessed for them, and its funny how the shitty wikia activity function is easier to find
19:01.24MonetSemiIn fact I'm having some issue with sites like TV Tropes and PC Gamer because all the adverts on there make browsing difficult. SOmetimes my flash player crashes.
19:01.27TechnobliteratorI dunno why Wikia invented WikiaActivity
19:01.31TechnobliteratorIt's fucking useless
19:01.44Wormy_awayI think my explanation suffces
19:02.22Wormy_awayWikia is more attractive to more types of user, but less useful for more dedicated editors]
19:02.41Wormy_awayAnd they do that so more people click on ads
19:02.48OluapWorkerAdblock master race
19:03.32CyrannianIt is probably due to people using the WikiaActivity that many people who come here for the first time think that the wiki is dead.
19:03.45Wormy_awaySince we care so much about making new users more dedicated, it rests upon us to inspire them :)
19:03.48TechnobliteratorIt is almost definitely due to that
19:04.25ImperiosOluapWorker: http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/File:The_Sultan.png

19:05.03OluapWorkerI like that, very fancy
19:05.30Wormy_awayThere is one new thing I like though, Wikia's highlighted code has come just in time when we need to fix links
19:06.06MonetSemiAlexisDesilva: Replied
19:06.20Wormy_awayOnly I do wonder how useful it is for colour-blind users, there should be options to change the colour palett rather than turning it plain on and off in the preferences
19:07.19ImperiosThanks
19:07.40ImperiosOne thing I don't like is that I made the Sultan look a bit too much like a woman
19:07.54OluapWorkerI don't see how
19:08.00OluapWorkerFemale Merovar have different models
19:08.20Hachimanbrb dinner
19:09.15ImperiosHm
19:09.25ImperiosMaybe you could use it to represent Megrovaz's mother or something hur

19:10.41Abysswalker25Hm.
19:10.55Abysswalker25This outcome of Guts vs Nightmare could've been better.
19:10.58Abysswalker25Oh well.
19:11.05ImperiosFunny thing is, in the Ottoman Empire, the sultan's mother was literally one of the most powerful people in the court
19:11.23ImperiosThere were actually times where sultans' mothers basically ruled over Turkey

20:18.03DrodoEmpireHey everyone
20:18.04Wormy_awayHello.
20:19.35Wormy_awayCyrannian, Technobliterator, Drodo, Hachiman:  Should we put an end to this?  http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Thread:197459#300
20:19.59Wormy_awayand advisethem ro roleplay elsewhere
20:20.09drom_semi300 posts?
20:20.16Wormy_awayI'm worried they will start creating more threads
20:20.19DrodoEmpireIts not hurting anybody,
20:20.22DrodoEmpireHowever
20:20.31OluapWorkerWhy would you?
20:20.46DrodoEmpireIt doesn't seem as though they have much interest with the rest of the community. Though we really haven't offered either
20:20.56OluapWorkerLet them have their fun
20:20.58DrodoEmpireI say we advise they try titanpad, IRC, or wiki chat at least
20:21.06DrodoEmpireBut if they don't want to let them go
20:21.11Wormy_awayI'm lenient enough to let the have the one, until they are done with it
20:21.26OluapWorkerI don't see the problem with it
20:21.42DrodoEmpireAgain, they aren't doing anything *wrong*, it'd just make their lives easier anyway to use a different thing I guess
20:22.03Abysswalker25Late hello, Drodo.
20:22.06DrodoEmpireHey
20:22.46DrodoEmpirehttps://scontent-lga.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xpa1/v/t1.0-9/11133815_10200349494655537_8100701022208237983_n.jpg?oh=33716401b3559bcbd91263689d0d9bca&oe=55A5B2CA - bug fixes for ck2
20:22.52Wormy_awayOkay, I suggest encouragement to intergrate with the rest of us.  If not titanpad or IRC, we can suggest SporeWikichat and pastie to archive
20:23.06DrodoEmpireYeah that's fine
20:23.13Abysswalker25I haven't played CK2 in a while. I got pissed at Sweden invading my newly formed kingdom of Finland.
20:23.21DrodoEmpireIf they don't want to though, that's fine also to be honest
20:23.25DrodoEmpireJust let'em go.
20:23.43Wormy_awayI'd rather there not be dozens of roleplay threads used by a isolated group of users...
20:24.12DrodoEmpireBut there's one roleplay thrread
20:24.14DrodoEmpire*thread
20:24.28DrodoEmpireIf it becomes a problem, it becomes a problem, if a very minor one
20:24.36Wormy_awayIts not very good for the rest of us to skim through dozens to get to threads we want
20:24.48DrodoEmpireSo far they have done nothing wrong, we shouldn't treat them as if they did.
20:25.33Wormy_awayI'm not saying persecute them for it, but advise other outlets
20:26.15DrodoEmpireThen do that. I don't have a problem with that. Just seemed as though you were starting to imply other stuff, and the fact you wanted to "put an end" to it earlier.
20:26.16DrodoEmpire:p
20:26.20Wormy_awayAlternatively
20:26.27Wormy_awayWe could create a roleplasy thread
20:26.34Wormy_away*roleplay forum
20:26.37DrodoEmpireSeems as though it wouldn't be used much.
20:26.53DrodoEmpireWhile we shouldn't persecute them, we shouldn't go out of our way for them either
20:26.57Wormy_awayAye, but not everybody wants or can use IRC or titanpad it seems
20:27.38Wormy_awayDrodo, I was asking *if* we should put an end to it
20:27.44DrodoEmpireWell... I'm confident that its not that they *can't*, but that they don't know *how*. Zilla had an issue with IRC for the longest time but he found a workaround somehow
20:27.58DrodoEmpireRight then, sorry
20:28.17DrodoEmpireEither way it might be better to ask the community about its formation
20:29.04TechnobliteratorI think we should use Special:Chat as a kind of "help desk"
20:29.15Technobliteratoras the place to get immediate help from someone
20:29.20Technobliteratorbut IRC as the primary means of communication
20:29.21DrodoEmpireThat's a good idea
20:29.44Wormy_awayIt depends, if they are accessing the wiki from a school, and by some magic the wiki isn't blocked but IRC is, you get my point.  Or they could be using very old browsers.  Externalization was hesitant about downloading firefox, and we shouldn't leave those users out.
20:30.22TechnobliteratorWhat should we put an end to?
20:30.57TechnobliteratorOh, thread
20:30.59TechnobliteratorEh
20:31.02Wormy_awayTheir roleplay thread, which is arguably isolated and irrelevant.  I don't mind ne but not hundreds
20:31.04DrodoEmpireThe thread some of the new people are using for their RP. Me and Oluap have zero issue with it but Wormy wants to advise them to use other stuff
20:31.09Wormy_away*one
20:31.20DrodoEmpireBut that's a slippery slope you're implying
20:31.23TechnobliteratorI would advise them to use something else but they're not doing any harm
20:31.26Wormy_awayBut then I thought of having a roleplay section of the forum
20:31.47TechnobliteratorI don't agree with that
20:31.50DrodoEmpireI'm just concerned as to how much it'd be used, or if it might misdirect new users from the IRC and greater community
20:31.51Wormy_awayAnd that would be good for users who don't want to use titanpad or IRC
20:32.13TechnobliteratorI encourage use of IRC for communications, and Special:Chat as a helpdesk
20:32.17Wormy_awayThe only problem is:  isolated parts of the community
20:32.19GhelI don't think there's any harm with pointing them to other outlets. Implying that they're being a nuisance should of course be avoided.
20:32.38DrodoEmpire^
20:33.30Wormy_awayRight then, should we intervene if they start making dozens more.  I'm sorry but I don't like isolated parts of the community
20:33.36GhelI would imagine that one advantage to the current system, from their point of view, is that everything is automatically saved and they don't have to be there all at the same time, so IRC with Pastie might not be too popular with them, although Titanpad should be fine.

20:33.44Wormy_awayBecause it makes wiki-wide decisions difficult
20:33.52Wormy_awayand conflict more likely
20:34.16Wormy_awayThey've refusedto acknowledge titanpad though
20:34.39Technobliteratorwho discovered titanpad btw
20:35.01Wormy_awayAnd I don't want to scan through hundreds of threads that have nothing to do with sporewiki

20:35.13Wormy_awayThe Randomness, then Cyrannian
20:35.29GhelAre you sure they're aware of titanpad?
20:35.39GhelNot that it makes much difference; that was really a side point.
20:35.45CyrannianAye, Randomness revealed it to me
20:35.46Technobliteratormy only concern with the community is how few people here use real IRC clients
20:35.50GhelMy first comment on the topic is the main thing.
20:35.55Technobliteratorhow do you guys manage without a client
20:35.58Technobliterator: |

20:36.16Technobliteratorit must be so annoying to have to type your password in and type the channel name every time
20:36.18Technobliteratorhow do you guys manage it

20:36.27GhelBy not being as easily annoyed as you.
20:36.35CyrannianIt only takes like, 5 seconds.

20:47.48drom_semiJo: My IRC client saves my password and usernames, lets me to configure it to autojoin channels of my choice on successful connect.
20:48.58drom_semiBut it however doesn't have the feature to scan for a keyword that would cause your client to ping you.
20:49.12drom_semiFYI, it's HexChat.
21:09.41Wormy_awayGhel:  Titanpad was pointed out twice to them
21:11.53HachimanJust damn well use the Special:Chat
21:12.00HachimanHow is it this hard for them
21:12.01HachimanIdiots
21:12.37HachimanProbably underage as well
21:12.42HachimanI say we ban them kek
21:12.48Abysswalker25Goodbye rabbit man and everyone else
21:12.54Wormy_awayraises pitchforks
21:12.59HachimanCya Abyss
21:14.24Wormy_awayI don't really see whats wrong with a roleplay forum, IRC isn't mandatory, and its better than sifting through possibly irrelevant threads.  Other than that, we can try once again to encourage them to use titanpad
21:14.30drom_semiclimbs up on Wormy_away's shoulders and rips the pitchforks from his hands and raises them higher*
21:14.51Wormy_awayBut last time they didn't listen
21:15.12Wormy_awayAnd I saw one of them even join the titanpad link I sent them
21:15.42HachimanClogs up RAM or whatever memory and wastes time
21:15.53drom_semiBack in my old times, when we used to RP, we made new posts for every action in a forum.
21:16.15drom_semiRAM? Barely.
21:16.20drom_semiLoading times? Definitly
21:16.49Wormy_awayDoesn't really effect the rest of the wiki though
21:17.16Wormy_awayI don't suppose its a huge issue, we hardly use the forums
21:17.28HachimanI am bringing up the same argument I did when it comes to disambiguation pages
21:17.32drom_semiJust loading times and content adminstration are affected.
21:17.37HachimanWe are not going to cater to them
21:17.42HachimanWhen we have plenty of alternatives
21:19.14DrodoEmpireHachi, how does it effect *you* though?
21:19.27DrodoEmpiref it isn't hurting nobody, then I don't *really* see an issue.
21:19.30DrodoEmpire*If
21:19.35*** join/#sporewiki TekDroid (~TekDroid@ru3.housing.carleton.ca)
21:19.56DrodoEmpireOf course, its better that they use something else. But in the end its not *bad* that they aren't.
21:20.38Wormy_awayHach has a point, and it is one you brought up Drodo, why should we cater people?  However, I'm not bothered about catering them, but users who don't use IRC or titanpad in general.
21:20.53Wormy_away*Hachi
21:20.55DrodoEmpireWell no we shouldn't cater to a very small group of people
21:21.01HachimanIf I make a bunch of threads about NSFW content, that is not hurting people
21:21.04DrodoEmpireBut we shouldn't harass, persecute, shun, or ban them
21:21.07HachimanAs in sexually explicit NSFW content
21:21.15DrodoEmpire...Except that's not what they're doing?
21:21.17HachimanI am not hurting anybody so I am not in the wrong and I can continue
21:21.21DrodoEmpireThat's irrelevant Hachi.
21:21.25HachimanThat's how stupid that argument sounds
21:21.35DrodoEmpireBut you're using a strawman
21:21.55HachimanDoes not matter whether they are hurting anybody or not, they are still in the wrong
21:21.56DrodoEmpireThey're doing a harmless little roleplay on a single thread, not spamming threads full of porn
21:21.57Wormy_awayIRC is not a mandatory component of being part of this community, itsc an excess as far as I'm concerned, useful but not soimething to revolve around.
21:22.17DrodoEmpire^
21:22.52DrodoEmpireBut its *harmless*. What rule is there against using threads in such a fashion? What disruption is it causing that isn't us making it an issue artificially?
21:23.32DrodoEmpireHow, exactly, are they in the wrong?
21:23.33Wormy_awayI feel as though my proposal for a roleplay section solves all these issues
21:23.47HachimanWhy have a roleplay section when we have IRC and Titanpad
21:23.56HachimanForget RP threads, they're a fucking stupid idea
21:24.09DrodoEmpireThere's a few potential issues with that Wormy, but we don't have anything to lose by trying an experimental RP section
21:24.15DrodoEmpireHachi, stay civil.
21:24.26HachimanWe even have Special:Chat for RPs to be done on
21:24.26DrodoEmpireSo I say we might as well.
21:24.32HachimanI disagree
21:24.53Wormy_awayIts not that harmless.  Whast if they remain isolated if we continue no action as we are?  And they, and other users start creating loads of irrelevant threads we have to sift through?  And what if we wanted to make changes in the future, and find ourselves in a new silly conflict?
21:25.28Wormy_awayIt might not be current but I can see this as a potential problem that does not have to exist
21:25.34HachimanTons of irrelevant edits
21:25.49Wormy_awaySo I suggetst we take action now, rather than later when it is less damaging
21:26.01DrodoEmpireWormy: Alright, it *can* pose an issue in the future. Lets nip it in the bud now and ask them to move it elsewhere
21:26.12HachimanRPing outside of Sporewiki's threads, like with Titanpad, IRC, and Special:Chat, we save the edit count as well
21:26.27Wormy_awayWe could do that; or create a seprate roleplay forum which I don't mind
21:26.33HachimanThis is why we got rid of blogs
21:26.56DrodoEmpireBut no, we are absolutely *not* harassing them for committing a victimless crime. :p
21:27.03DrodoEmpireOr really a nonexistant one
21:27.07Hachiman*You* won't
21:27.09Wormy_awayAnd that would befor users who don't use IRC in general
21:27.22DrodoEmpireAnd if *you* do, it'll get you in trouble. We have to be professional.
21:27.34DrodoEmpireWormy: Fair enough.
21:27.51HachimanI am being professional by not allowing this community and its staff to cater to juveniles newcomers that do not know how things work
21:27.59CyrannianI'll send them a wee message
21:28.03Wormy_awayCould I have some more opinions?
21:28.24HachimanTeach them the ropes and if they cannot learn, well you know how Darwin's principle works
21:28.44HachimanThey fall behind and eventually they will either leave naturally or get themselves booted
21:28.44DrodoEmpireI'll just let you have your opinion, Hachi. I see this boiling over.
21:29.10MonetSemiI don't see them causing any harm.
21:29.23HachimanSo now we're gonna cater to infants
21:29.27HachimanWhat has this place come to
21:30.23Wormy_awayAlright, I think we should jusat remind them than titanpad and SporeWiki chat exists for now
21:30.46MonetSemiThey're not hurting anyone, and apart from a minor concern about what -could- happen,  they're nto bothering anyone.
21:30.58HachimanThey bother me
21:31.04HachimanThey are not only wasting their time, they are wasting ours
21:32.20MonetSemiSo we let them be.
21:33.29Wormy_awayWhat we *could* do, is recommend other outlets if they create new threads.  They can keep the current as there was no policy aainst rolewplay threads
21:33.47Wormy_awayBut I'd rather there is
21:34.06MonetSemiAnd if they'd rather not use titanpad then that is their choice.
21:34.13Wormy_awayIt would be annoying to have users with no interest in the current, camping on our forums
21:34.44DrodoEmpireYeah it would be
21:35.05HachimanWhich is why we either have them adapt or get rid of them
21:35.06DrodoEmpireAnd if they explicitly profess a disinterest with the greater community then we *may* have grounds to evict them
21:35.10Wormy_awayAs long as we can circumvent that, I'm fine with the situation
21:35.16DrodoEmpireOtherwsie
21:35.17DrodoEmpire*wise
21:35.31DrodoEmpireWe have no reason to do so and it'd reflect badly on us; COexist, really
21:35.49DrodoEmpireIntegrate them by being *friendly*, and getting them involved
21:35.56MonetSemiThe wiki's gone hmm, 6 years is it? (Eight?) without people being explicitly told where and ow to RP (okay maybe once or twice like not on the public IRC channel)
21:36.04MonetSemihow to*
21:36.39Wormy_awayThese forums are relatively new though.
21:36.57DrodoEmpireYeah but to be honest I think many of us learnt the hard way. :p My first RPs were on blogs until I discovered IRC, so I made their mistake too
21:37.00Wormy_awayAnd because of their format they harbour new problems
21:37.37Cyrannianhttp://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Thread:197459#300 - Sent them a message.
21:39.05DrodoEmpireWell-worded and written.
21:39.13DrodoEmpireHopefully, it gets their attention or at least starts a diologue.
21:39.23Wormy_awayYeah that is the best start

22:07.34HachimanWormy_: How would you explain the existence of ghosts in the Fictionverse that are tied to Elemental energy?
22:07.55HachimanBasic summary rather
22:07.56Wormy_Hm, two ways
22:09.43Wormy_Number one:  Ghosts are fragments of sentient being's souls, which are created via intent or the subconscious abd live in the collective unconscious as stored archetypes (elemental ernergy is highly related to consciousness)
22:10.08Wormy_And are released as apparaitional phenomena upon sufficient stimulation
22:10.53Wormy_Alternatively they could be higher beings living in the same essence body
22:11.09Technobliteratorwell other than doing one Loron fiction thing I basically wasted all of today
22:11.11Technobliteratorgo me.
22:11.22Wormy_Number two:  elemental energy acts as a medium for the after-life
22:12.32HachimanMind summarising Number 1 a bit more?
22:12.46Wormy_and cause apparitional phenomena locally in minds
22:14.01Wormy_It is basically saying ghosts are fragments of awareness or simply thoughtforms that live, perhaps like a parasite, in minds
22:14.42Wormy_The ghost would make itself apparent by causing mind altering effects to the host
22:15.39Wormy_Hachiman:  I based it on the idea of Machine Elves http://non-aliencreatures.wikia.com/wiki/Machine_Elf

22:16.43Wormy_Also http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tulpa http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collective_unconscious
22:18.15MonetSemiCould Purgatory be the closest we have to a neutral afterlife?
22:18.28MonetSemiSince it seems ot overlap with realspace
22:21.24HachimanSo basically ghosts tied to Elemental Energy would be the conscious psychological remnants of sapient beings that either require the active conscious of living sapients to sustain themselves and can utilize the energy to make themselves appear in realspace when they are not or are tied to places with strong spiritual presences?
22:21.40Wormy_Exactly
22:21.56HachimanRight I get you now
22:23.11AeoSo I just got back from seeing Home, the movie. It is amazing. I literally cried.
22:23.35AeoThe first half makes it seem like it's going to be below average, but it really picks up.
22:23.37AeoThe feels.
22:25.26Wormy_http://mysteriousuniverse.org/2013/11/rebooting-to-the-realm-of-monsters/
22:26.43AeoBy the way, I have a new empire that I'd like to have make a Cameo in the Schism.
22:27.23AeoBasically I need someone to stomp on it and leave it licking its wounds for the big story I plan to use it for.
22:30.37Wormy_That would probably be me
22:31.04MonetSemiHehe
22:31.25AeoIDK if maybe the DCP would be more inclined to work with these guys.
22:31.32Tek0516>.< I really want to check out this awesome quasar in Space Engine but last time tried my PC crashed. :/
22:31.43AeoThan the Imperium, France and TIAF.
22:31.44MonetAeo: WHat makes you say that?
22:32.58AeoThey're the kind of guys you shoot on principle.
22:32.59Wormy_They could be working with the DCP, but the DI or allies annex it for resources or territory
22:33.39AeoI want it to end with the empire broken but... actually, DI annexing a big chunk of it would be perfect.
22:34.32AeoBecause my plan is to have the Aeoneonatrix teleport in right next to them. Monet being right there will make it convenient to do some fiction with him that I'd been planning anyway.
22:34.45AeoAnd maybe involve him in THE story I'm going to do this summer.
22:37.07MonetI can do that, yeah
22:39.31AeoIt will be interesting to see how the Inquisition reacts to the Cleanser picking up 1000 stars and setting them down on the other side of the galaxy fifteen years later precisely as they were, down to the ages of the people on the planets.
22:40.35HachimanBit OP
22:41.14AeoYes, but plot needs it and it'll drain him pretty badly.
22:41.49MonetI think a lot of people will be hit with "da fuq...?"
22:42.05AeoI would imagine.
22:42.42AeoAnd it'd make the inquisition pretty worried that the conquering cult leader can do that.
22:43.08AeoIt's one of my many goals to somehow get the League of Patrons or the cleanser on that top 5 list of threats.
22:43.15Tek0516It'll probably be especially wierd for the Aeons once they encounter Farengeto ships, now two tiers more advanced since their disappearance.
22:44.16AeoRight, and of course the Axis of good is unprecedentedly torn against one another, former allies and friends fighting to the dea... wait, that happens every Tuesday. I forgot.
22:44.20Tek0516Especially if its no other context than Farengeto ships and vastly more advanced. XD
22:44.21HachimanI cannot stand people that are into beastiality, those people are fucking animals
22:44.45Tek0516...
22:45.00DrodoEmpirek
22:45.01Tek0516I'm assuming pun intended?
22:45.20Wormy_I don't like people who commit animal abuse of all kinds
22:45.34AeoI've actually thought about writing a parody empire, and its history section would be all about how it goes from war to war with no peace time in between, usually based on a misunderstanding that allows the entire bloodbath to be forgotten about inside 10 years.
22:45.52HachimanYes pun intended hur

23:43.51HachimanYou're a fucking dumbass that's what
23:45.02Abysswalker252spooky
23:46.22HachimanDrodoEmpire: So apparently, during the mid-12th Century, the Emperor of Byzantine was given a letter signed by a mysterious figure called "Prester John" who was supposedly the king of a Christian king that supposedly owned emerald ships and magic fruits and promised to fight the heathen enemies of the Catholic Church
23:47.02DrodoEmpireSeems legit
23:47.13HachimanThis letter was sent not by a man called Prester John, who did not actually exist, and the sender is unknown to this day. 40 years after the letter was received, during the Fifth Crusade, reports came to the Church that there was indeed a kingdom tearing through the heathen enemies of Christianity
23:47.24DrodoEmpireOh
23:47.25HachimanBut it was not Prester John and his kingdom; it was Genghis fucking Khan
23:47.28DrodoEmpireSeems legit indeed
23:47.33DrodoEmpireOh
23:47.34DrodoEmpireOh shit
23:47.35DrodoEmpireXD
23:47.57DrodoEmpireHuh
23:48.08HachimanThey did not in fact realize it was Genghis Khan until he began his invasion of Europe by smashing through Catholic countries and crashing their gates and terrorizing their people
23:48.09DrodoEmpireWell...
23:48.16DrodoEmpireYeah
23:48.25DrodoEmpireSeems cool, but its probably a coincidence honestly. :p
23:48.47HachimanYeah, a message sent by some joker who thought it'd be funny to shitpost the Byzantine Emperor
23:48.53HachimanAnd then Khan happened
23:49.09DrodoEmpireBy the time that letter was recieved Genghis was either a Kid or just forming his kingdom, probably the first. Dunno his exact age
23:49.21DrodoEmpire"Shitpost the Byzantine Emperor"
23:49.24Abysswalker25I actually wanted to use mongolian tactics for the Umbris in warfare. But such things include mass genocide and biological warfare lol
23:49.35DrodoEmpireWell
23:49.53DrodoEmpireYou *can* use military tactics the Mongols used, technicall
23:49.55DrodoEmpire*technically
23:50.07Abysswalker25We're just going to use space horses and compact bows
23:50.12DrodoEmpireFalse-retreats, usage of auxiliaries from conquered peoples
23:50.15Abysswalker25And conquer the known universe.
23:50.26AeoPerfidy.
23:50.39DrodoEmpireDrodo - http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction%3ADrodo_Empire#Drodo_Cavalry
23:50.42AeoLots of fucking perfidy.
23:50.43DrodoEmpireDrodo - Beat you to it
23:50.50Abysswalker25Nooooooooo
23:50.54AeoALL OF THE FUCKING PERFIDY.
23:51.05HachimanWhat the fuck is perfidy
23:51.13DrodoEmpireThe Mongols had bright ideas, but genocide and whatnot probably isn't recommended. XD
23:51.39DrodoEmpireGranted when they actually *conquered* people they treated them fairly after the initial terror
23:52.46Abysswalker25Yeah they were pretty nice to people that were taken over. Just if you fought them all bets were off.
23:52.57AeoWe do already have a "I want to conquer the universe to make it better" empire, but it's been inactive for a while... unless you count the Aeoneonatrix, which, come to think of it, you absolutely should.
23:53.18HachimanAnd which inactive empire is this?
23:53.48Abysswalker25I was intially going to do that but I thought it'd be an overdone concept.
23:54.23DrodoEmpireYeah it can be
23:54.33DrodoEmpireAnd most attempts don't get very far. XD
23:54.35AeoTherenian Dominion, or something similar.
23:54.47HachimanDon't remember it
23:55.07Wormy_DrodoEmpire:  I find the Mongol's weird anti-arrow clith ingenious, they could pull out the arrow with less damage
23:55.15Wormy_*cloth
23:55.17DrodoEmpireYeah
23:55.19Abysswalker25Well, given that there has been years of time to build up, I honestly don't think anyone can do it unless they are already a hyperpower.
23:55.29HachimanWell
23:55.34Wormy_Oh and they used smoke screens to thrash the knights
23:55.38HachimanThe Gigaquadrant is actually considerably small
23:55.45DrodoEmpireYeah world domination's difficult, unless you're Ryukyu.
23:55.48DrodoEmpirehttp://cloud-4.steamusercontent.com/ugc/617280783329384482/7ED5F1CC40E1C1C222234282B72A37EF4CDAA3BD/
23:56.08DrodoEmpireWormy: yeah medieval knights didn't stand a chance
23:56.14AeoOne thing to keep in mind: So long as you don't give up, you have as long as you want.
23:56.17HachimanThe *entire* universe is impossible to conquer definitely but the Gigaquadrant is the only active part of that gargantuan universe post-Annihilation
23:56.39DrodoEmpireMongols were *born* on the saddle, and in the middle ages the horse archer was the most potent soldier on the battlefield
23:56.49AeoWhich is why the Aeoneonatrix, in my mind, really might rule the roost someday. The Cleanser ensures that their culture will NEVER change enough to make them stop.
23:56.54Abysswalker25Thats why they are so OP in CK2.
23:56.57DrodoEmpire^
23:57.06Abysswalker25I hate fighting horse archers.
23:57.10Abysswalker25They destroy you.
23:57.16HachimanIt is not the Aeoneonatrix ruling though
23:57.18HachimanIt is the Cleanser
23:57.29AeoSo yeah, they're not going to beat the DCP in a million years, but who cares? They have a billion.
23:57.32DrodoEmpireThe only problem is they took a lifetime of training to make, and such lifetime of training needed a pretty slim number of climates in order to arise.
23:57.50Abysswalker25Isn't the DCP dealing with a lot of issues right now?
23:57.55AeoThey don't care about power for themselves. They care about their ideology.
23:57.59HachimanDCP is actually kicking ass right now
23:58.01DrodoEmpireEh, the Xonexi War.
23:58.07DrodoEmpireWhich they won in the Milky Way
23:58.17DrodoEmpireBut still face *major* resistance elsewhere
23:58.31HachimanDCP slapped France's shit silly and now they are on the verge of victory against the Imperium
23:58.31DrodoEmpireIn all the secured the mainland though
23:58.40DrodoEmpireNot really Hachi
23:58.54DrodoEmpireFrance gave a good fight and only the mainland was defeated
23:59.08DrodoEmpireThe other 60% of France; Its COlonial Empire, is still indepant
23:59.12DrodoEmpire*independant
23:59.24DrodoEmpireAnd I wouldn't say the Imperium is on the verge of losing either
23:59.49Abysswalker25So its uh
