15:43.18 | Vall | Imperios: Wow! It looks way better now! |
15:43.42 | Vall | So what did you decide about them? |
15:44.40 | Imperios | We could probably use them as a military order which is part of the Uniate League, maybe they could at some point go on a crusade to Cyrannus? |
15:45.46 | Vall | Ok sounds good |
15:46.02 | Vall | Do you want some help with the page? |
15:46.29 | Imperios | Yeah |
15:46.44 | Imperios | BTW I based the look of that emblem on military orders and medals |
15:47.59 | Imperios | So in-universe, I imagine that active members of the Missionistus could wear that symbol on their helmets, or as a patch on their uniforms, or as a pin |
15:48.30 | Imperios | Wait, not a pin, a brooch |

16:46.42 | Imperios | No I mean the city |

16:47.22 | DrodoEmpire | I dunno if its brought up there, is all, so I'm curious what made you think of it? |
16:47.30 | DrodoEmpire | Oh yeah I did bring it up |
16:47.32 | DrodoEmpire | Well |
16:47.36 | DrodoEmpire | It existed, I'm sure |

16:49.07 | DrodoEmpire | ^ |
16:49.40 | DrodoEmpire | Fixed |
16:50.48 | Imperios | I think Persia as a civilisation is underappreciated |
16:51.23 | DrodoEmpire | Indeed |
16:52.04 | Imperios | It's probably one of the most long-lived and resilient cultures in history, save for China |

18:02.01 | Imperios | I scrambled it from various crowns on Wikipedia Commons |
18:06.58 | Imperios | Vall: Just curious, did you have anything particular in mind when making the black-orange stripy symbol for the Missionistus? |
18:06.59 | DrodoEmpire | Hm |
18:07.53 | DrodoEmpire | I mean, I dunno if it looks "too human", really the question you should be asking yourself is if it fits the artstyle and theme for Spodism in general, or the society this faction hails from |
18:08.11 | DrodoEmpire | If it does, then go for it-- I think it looks pretty cool |
18:08.56 | Imperios | Because a black-orange stripy circle is actually the main symbol of the Russian Army https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/1f/Cocarde_Russie_2006.jpg/200px-Cocarde_Russie_2006.jpg |

18:09.26 | Imperios | Ah |
18:10.48 | Vall | Since it was a crusade intended to protect spodist belief from the growing psionic practices. |
18:11.41 | Imperios | Ah |
18:12.31 | Imperios | I actually wonder where this anti-psionic prejudice comes from |
18:12.45 | Imperios | Since Radeons are psychic I imagine that Essence usage in Spodist nations is generally accepted |
18:13.07 | Imperios | But perhaps psionic energy was seen as something abnormal, as it was different to the elemental essences that Spodists typically used |

18:19.06 | Monet | hi |
18:20.41 | Imperios | Vall: Come to think about it. Compared to Radeon psychic abilities (and I imagine their practices form the basis for Spodist psychic schools), which focus more on telepathy, Krassio psionics were much more combat-oriented |
18:21.01 | Imperios | So perhaps the Missionistus saw psionics as something inherently violent and dangerous? |
18:21.06 | Imperios | Incorrectly, of course |
18:21.56 | Vall | Yeah, maybe |
18:22.35 | Vall | The reason remains a mystery lol |
18:23.10 | Vall | They failed to see that that psionic philosphy would be key in the War of Ages |

18:55.53 | OluapPlayer | I'd make a gnome too but going through all the effort of leveling up to 110 and working on artifact power and reputations |
18:55.56 | OluapPlayer | Not willing to do that |
18:57.26 | Imperios | You should boost a Horde char |
18:57.29 | Imperios | Then we can level together |
18:57.55 | OluapPlayer | I intend to make a Horde char for the sake of collecting Horde mounts |
18:57.55 | Imperios | I have two 100-level Hordes, a pandaren priest and an orc shamaness |
18:58.00 | OluapPlayer | Probably a troll |
18:58.02 | Imperios | Yes shamaness |
18:58.04 | Imperios | I am weird |
18:58.29 | OluapPlayer | Gnome monk is much weirder than orc shaman |
18:58.43 | Hachiman | I really wanna try WoW just for the sake of this but I am already paying for Oluap's subscription and my own PSN account hur |
18:58.47 | Hachiman | Plus, grind hell |
18:59.44 | OluapPlayer | At first I considered a tauren so I could name it something dumb like IGotABeefWithYou |
18:59.46 | OluapPlayer | But I like trolls too |

19:00.42 | OluapPlayer | Accurate |
19:01.03 | Imperios | OluapPlayer: As in, a female orc |
19:01.35 | OluapPlayer | I don't find people playing females weird hur |
19:01.55 | Imperios | Yes but nobody plays female orcs |
19:02.04 | OluapPlayer | Again if it weren't for the grind I'd make a gnome and probably also a draenei |
19:02.26 | OluapPlayer | Worgen also look cool but it'd be a boy wolf not a dumb-looking dog woman |
19:03.21 | Imperios | Female worgen are fucking stupid |
19:03.54 | Hachiman | Draenei grills are qt |
19:04.08 | Hachiman | What's character creation like in WoW? |
19:04.30 | Monet | WIde fariety of faces, hair, skin colour. |
19:04.31 | OluapPlayer | It's rather simple |
19:04.41 | *** join/#sporewiki Vall (~androirc@189.182.47.50) |
19:05.23 | Monet | You can't change your height or build though. You can also visit a barber and for a fwe gold they can change everything except your skin colour. |
19:09.08 | Monet | We're still talking 2004-era character creation so no fine-tuning the definition of the cheeks and ears and stuff. |
19:09.39 | Hachiman | But can I give my draenei waifu turbo tits |
19:09.47 | DrodoEmpire | ayy lmao |
19:09.47 | Monet | No |
19:10.11 | Monet | All tits are created equal..for their species. |
19:11.51 | Imperios | Draenei tits are big in general |
19:11.58 | Imperios | I think they are the most buxom race in the game |
19:12.03 | Imperios | Maybe the NE can compare |
19:12.10 | Imperios | Or perhaps the tauren but... well... |
19:13.14 | Monet | <PROTECTED> |
19:14.29 | Hachiman | Yeah they look kinda busty |
19:15.10 | Monet | The one on the left is the more up-to-date design. |
19:15.37 | Hachiman | Yeah one on the left looks far better |

19:20.05 | Imperios | I actually let my sister design her and play as her a little bit |
19:20.09 | Imperios | A draenei hunter |
19:21.44 | Imperios | Actually wait, in terms of bustiness |
19:21.56 | Imperios | The most buxom model is of course the female pandaren |
19:22.33 | Imperios | I think |
19:22.36 | Hachiman | So, what if I wanted to play like |
19:22.39 | Hachiman | A draenei shaman |
19:22.45 | Hachiman | Or druid |
19:23.06 | OluapPlayer | Draenei can't be druids |

19:25.15 | Hachiman | And when I say that I mean, what gets you shouted at less |
19:25.57 | OluapPlayer | Damage dealers since they're the ones who shout at others |
19:26.19 | Monet | Tssssss! |
19:27.01 | OluapPlayer | I wouldn't know what class is the easiest, I've only played Warrior |
19:27.41 | OluapPlayer | Warriors aka the manliest class |
19:28.34 | Imperios | Hachiman: Hunters |
19:28.49 | Imperios | Demon hunters are pretty simple too |
19:28.55 | Monet | Hunters: Your pet does everything |
19:29.54 | OluapPlayer | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RKvJ3hayzYo |

19:46.01 | Monet | <PROTECTED> |
19:46.37 | OluapPlayer | That's a snort, not a pfft |
19:47.05 | Monet | Sounds sort of similar. |
19:47.19 | Monet | ...kind of |
19:47.36 | Hachiman | Pfft is more like a blow |
19:59.17 | Monet | maybe |
19:59.49 | Hachiman | Monet: "I don't know what's worse, Scottish people's instinctive self hatred or the fact that it's completely justified" |
19:59.50 | Monet | I'm with Imp sometimes pfft sounds like laughter sometiems it sounds like dismissal. |

20:18.14 | Wormydroid | Glad they're extinct here |
20:18.18 | DrodoEmpire | Well yeah that's because as a Briton, you barely *have* woods and you have literally no big wildlife <.< |
20:18.56 | DrodoEmpire | You guys have domesticated the entire isle a looong time ago |
20:18.57 | Wormydroid | We have some feral horses and wild boar in select areas |

20:21.09 | DrodoEmpire | (Sorry dino its true >:D) |
20:21.21 | OluapPlayer | I get reminded of that one spear created specifically for boars because they just charge through normal spears without giving a fuck |
20:21.30 | DrodoEmpire | I never heard of it |
20:21.39 | DrodoEmpire | Do you know what it was called? |
20:21.43 | OluapPlayer | It's a thing] |
20:21.46 | Imperios | I only know of special spears for bears |
20:21.57 | OluapPlayer | I don't, but essentially it's a spear made to stop the boar on its tracks |
20:22.01 | Imperios | It is basically a pike |
20:22.03 | DrodoEmpire | Ahh |
20:22.25 | Hachiman | Need spears used specifically to defeat orcs |
20:22.26 | OluapPlayer | Otherwise they'll charge through the spear and attack you even you stab them |
20:22.29 | Hachiman | Because orcs are pig people right |
20:22.33 | Imperios | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boar_spear there found it |

20:53.07 | DanzaDelMondo | Russia is awful, but it's home |
20:53.08 | Xho | And yes Southampton is notorious for violent crimes |

20:54.28 | dino82_ | @Danza: I think most of old European colonial empires/kingdoms did a lot of bad things, human kind was less civilized then |
20:54.31 | DanzaDelMondo | Meanwhile Jepardi comes from the country of weird forest people with odd folklore that were believed to be magical in the Middle Ages |
20:54.42 | dino82_ | (though one can wonder how "civilized" we are now as well) |
20:54.56 | DanzaDelMondo | Russia's colonisation was... well it actually wasn't that bloody |
20:55.16 | DanzaDelMondo | But mostly because Russia mostly colonised places where no sane human would settle, i.e. Siberia |
20:55.25 | dino82_ | @Drodo: Oh new chapter of Timonax! Fun1 |
20:55.28 | DrodoEmpire | Europe is very civilised dino, don't worry <.< |
20:55.28 | Xho | meanwhile in russia |
20:55.39 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah it wasn't bloody because nobody lived thre |
20:55.52 | Monet | Also depends on the civilisation. |
20:55.55 | DrodoEmpire | And only the Russians were crazy enough to say "yes, this make gud home" |
20:56.03 | DanzaDelMondo | I think the bloodiest part of Russia's history was the Caucasian War |
20:56.04 | DrodoEmpire | >.> |
20:56.13 | DanzaDelMondo | I mean before the Revolution |
20:56.20 | Monet | The Enlightenment coincided with the colonial empires. |
20:56.24 | DanzaDelMondo | And not counting Napoleon and the like |
20:56.29 | DanzaDelMondo | Talking only about colonial history basically |
20:56.34 | DrodoEmpire | It did |
20:57.07 | DanzaDelMondo | The people of North Caucasus were really tenacious and resisted Russian imperialism fervently |
20:57.15 | Cyrannian | DanzaDelMondo: Ireland was in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland until 1922, and two of my relatives fought in the British Army in WW1, so dere |
20:57.39 | DrodoEmpire | Really colonialism and the rise of global trade is a very complicated subject that can't be said to be "good" or "bad" |
20:58.10 | DanzaDelMondo | Since Caucasus is mountainous, they used the landscape to their advantage, ambushing invading Russian forces from the forested highlands |
20:58.20 | DanzaDelMondo | Kind of like Scots |
20:59.43 | DrodoEmpire | It just is-- the actors that participated could be good or bad, but that's not terribly useful to say because history isn't just a series of "great men" that can be credited for phenomena as large as, say, the transatlantic slave trade or the reign of terror over Fujian in the 15-1600s. |
21:00.16 | DanzaDelMondo | It was inherent to the era, and one could say they did not have a choice |
21:00.40 | DanzaDelMondo | Monet DrodoEmpire: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/07/%D0%98%D0%BC%D0%B0%D0%BC_%D0%A8%D0%B0%D0%BC%D0%B8%D0%BB%D1%8C.jpg/300px-%D0%98%D0%BC%D0%B0%D0%BC_%D0%A8%D0%B0%D0%BC%D0%B8%D0%BB%D1%8C.jpg Speaking of which, look, Imam Shamil, the bane of the Russian Army |
21:00.43 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah I'm firmly of the belief that if the guy who *did* do something bad didn't do it, it'd be somebody else a couple years later |
21:01.02 | DrodoEmpire | Because historical forces are what drive it all, with few exceptions |
21:01.17 | DrodoEmpire | That hat is incredible |
21:01.18 | DanzaDelMondo | "Small nations need big blades." |
21:01.36 | DrodoEmpire | (One exception to this rule might be Alexander the Great-- that was pretty surprising) |
21:01.57 | DanzaDelMondo | There's a pretty funny story regarding this guy |
21:02.02 | DrodoEmpire | But that's about it |
21:02.03 | DrodoEmpire | Oh? |
21:02.28 | DanzaDelMondo | A Russian general entered a Caucasian village where Shamil resided, demanding that they submit to the Russian Empire |
21:02.46 | Technobliterator | I have no idea what to name this section :| |
21:02.57 | Technobliterator | Everyone Hates UNO doesn't sound good |
21:03.22 | DanzaDelMondo | When Shamil asked him why Russia conquers other nations, the general responded that Russia's goal is to bring its high culture to barbarians |
21:04.00 | DanzaDelMondo | Shamil commanded a local villager to come and show them his feet, and then asked a Russian soldier to do the same |
21:04.22 | DanzaDelMondo | The villagers, being Muslims, partook in ritual cleansing, and their feet were completely clean, whereas those of Russians, well... |
21:04.42 | DanzaDelMondo | Shamil laughed, and asked if *that* was the culture that Russia meant to bring to his homeland |
21:05.03 | DrodoEmpire | Huh |
21:05.14 | ZF101 | I betcha that Russian general wanted to put his foot in his mouth after that one. |
21:05.31 | DrodoEmpire | *ba dum tiss* |
21:06.29 | ZF101 | God, I love puns. To bad they almost got me disowned by my parents. |

21:20.33 | Cyrannian | Very nice work |
21:21.24 | dino82_ | interessting Xho1 |
21:23.09 | Xho | I had an idea for a possible solo fiction I was gonna do |
21:23.23 | Monet | okay |
21:23.30 | Xho | I was gonna do Orichalcum Elf epics in the old-school style structure |
21:25.00 | Xho | There's a fair few moments in Orichalcum Elf history worth making epics of |
21:25.08 | Xho | 25,000 years you'd sure hope so |
21:27.03 | Xho | Aurtalvaseius would probably be the one to do an epic about |
21:27.03 | Monet | Definitely |
21:27.29 | Xho | If anyone forgot Aurtalvaseius was the founder of the Imperium as well as the dragonrider of the Sun Colossus |
21:28.00 | Xho | More than likely of divine blood since ancient era elves |
21:28.32 | Monet | So god-king to boot |
21:28.35 | Xho | That and the apparent progenitor of the royal family, so Septimus would be a descendant of this guy |
21:28.36 | Monet | Makes sense |
21:28.38 | Xho | More or less |
21:28.41 | Xho | GOD-EMPEROR OF ELVENKIND |
21:29.27 | Xho | Keleivel would be another one, also another god-emperor of elvenkind |
21:29.39 | Xho | Although has physical evidence of his existence other than a spear |
21:31.28 | Xho | Arguably polarised in historical discussion as to whether he was a benevolent emperor or a ruthless dictator on the account of him ruling the entire south |
21:32.37 | Xho | Although legends of his conquests would have survived |
21:32.47 | Xho | And the probable war with the Sohet |
21:32.52 | Hachiman | Hathgar - he was an elf he was bad either way |
21:33.04 | Xho | Septimus - bad call but probably right |
21:33.39 | Xho | Really past Aurtalvaseius and Keleivel there were no other god emperors |
21:33.48 | Xho | Which probably implies the two were related |
21:34.40 | Xho | I'd do a page on Aurtalvaseius but I don't really know what to do for a model |
21:34.44 | Xho | I need to do Keleivel's page as well |

22:43.12 | DrodoEmpire | That's the problem with fiction reading for me-- I want to but I read so much other stuff too |
22:43.22 | DrodoEmpire | I have two or three books on the go at any given time |
22:43.51 | DrodoEmpire | (I'm reading "1493" and "Dune" atm) |
22:45.23 | DrodoEmpire | Technobliterator: I've always wondered-- is "Vague" said with normally or with like a long a? |
22:45.34 | DrodoEmpire | i.e "Vahgue" as opposed to "Vague" |
22:45.46 | DrodoEmpire | *said as it is normally |
22:45.48 | Technobliterator | The latter |
22:46.06 | DrodoEmpire | Long a then? |
22:46.43 | OluapPlayer | It's said like the normal word |
22:46.52 | OluapPlayer | They're called Vague because their purpose is left vague |
22:46.58 | Monet | Their full name is "Vague Fate" |

22:47.54 | Cyrannian | Hate my bloody job, just found out that a really crappy survey which ended yesterday will be back tomorrow, which will involve calling people who lack basic manners for another three weeks ughhh |
22:48.13 | OluapPlayer | ur kind of people then hurhurhur |
22:49.57 | Cyrannian | And I hate the whole happy, friendly, "how are you" routine I have to put on. Just once I'd like to say "well I'm not particularly interested in talking to you either you failure of a human being" |
22:50.28 | Monet | I have a few friends who work in service. |
22:50.41 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah I never understood why people are so rude to people who work in services |
22:51.03 | Monet | General message I get is you gotta be sociable even if the customer is an idiot. Which is about 80% of them |
22:51.48 | DrodoEmpire | I've always been really courteous to people like that, because I get that they're just doing their job and its wrong to lash out at them :p |
22:52.24 | Cyrannian | I mean, if I'm being honest, I wouldn't necessarily do an opinion poll either if I was occupied, but I wouldn't rudely hang up as soon as the person on the other line began speaking |
22:52.28 | DrodoEmpire | Why people twice or three times my age also don't understand that I don't know |
22:52.31 | Monet | As much of a psychological hammer as it is, an unhappy customer might tell people, which would impact sales. |
22:52.41 | DrodoEmpire | Cyrannian: Exactly |
22:53.13 | DrodoEmpire | It doesn't take much to just apologise and say you're busy, or to not pick up-- at least that way you aren't being as much of a dick :p |
22:53.26 | DrodoEmpire | Or rather, the recipient of the call |
22:54.10 | Cyrannian | I mean I don't get why they do that either, it isn't a sales company, we just do opinion polls and customer satisfaction surveys on behalf of various phone or internet providers |
22:55.22 | Cyrannian | Plus since this particularly survey is conducted in Northern Ireland, there are people who don't want to speak to someone from the Republic |
22:55.40 | Monet | Ouch |
22:56.26 | DrodoEmpire | Oh dear |
22:56.55 | Cyrannian | So I'll be working from 13:30 to 20:00 tomorrow and 10:00 to 17:00 on Saturday, so I'm not optimistic about the next few days |

23:01.49 | OluapPlayer | Velociraptor - i wish i was back at the island opening doors and eating children |
23:02.38 | Cyrannian | The whole thing has me like, "no it's okay Britain, please keep Northern Ireland, and since you won't be in the EU anymore either, better build a massive border wall" |
23:03.47 | Monet | No more walls plz. |
23:03.57 | Monet | Walls only keep people apart. |

23:04.25 | Cyrannian | If you spoke to them on the phone you'd want them as far away as possible too hur |
23:04.47 | Cyrannian | I'm exaggerating of course, occasionally you get a really lovely person who makes your day |
23:05.08 | Cyrannian | Like an elderly person who just wants some company, which hits me in the feels |

23:07.48 | Monet | I have a few friends who work in PC World. |
23:08.45 | Monet | And I once tried to apply for a job at an Apple store. Reflecting on what people say about service, it might be a good thing they silently turned me down. |
23:09.01 | DrodoEmpire | hur |
23:09.47 | DrodoEmpire | I work parttime for a traffic safety company. While not working services, per se, I do work in Planning, which is basically calling the TCPs (the guys who hold the signs on the roads) and telling them their work for tomorrow, or the next few days |
23:09.51 | Cyrannian | I think I'd prefer face-to-face rather than over the phone, it's just that this job has flexible hours which is handy for juggling it with my course |
23:10.04 | DrodoEmpire | Most of them are nice, but we got some real assholes working for us, too >.< |
23:10.20 | Monet | Not simply the sort of people who buy Apple, looking back, there's something cult-y about Apple's staff culture. |
23:10.26 | DrodoEmpire | Ew |
23:10.32 | DrodoEmpire | I hear the same shit about WalMart |
23:10.44 | DrodoEmpire | Where they have this weird cult atmosphere in some outlets |
23:11.02 | Monet | Like everyone's part of the Apple Family. |
23:11.13 | DrodoEmpire | That sorta attitude makes my skin crawl |
23:11.26 | Cyrannian | I'm going to go scream into a pillow or something, maybe that'll get me to sleep. Toodles. |
