Not right now. Shar indicated he was developing conversation text and flow to handle that. Either when he gets that done and submits it, or whenever I get to it in the next 1-183 months, you'll have your wish.

As an add on, going ahead through a transition whether outside on horseback or in a dungeon. Yes I am aware misclicks occur having had my share. :)

Rather than start a new thread(though if admins feel I should and wish to move it then so be it.) a general observation over all.

One word: RESPECT. We all come from different backgrounds, countries culture etc. This naturally reflects on our interactions with others. Also we come from different rping backgrounds and not all have played NWN.

There will always be rp players and powergamers and then some in-between. I feel my self an in between leaning more towards rp. Yes I do want my characters to reach their full potential but more through personal growth.

Classes and alignments, yes there are guidelines, but they are just that guidelines. You pick a class(es) or a god and play it as you feel it should be. Just as in real life, people will hold a basic belief and yet have different opinions.

You see someone rping a class maybe you rped it before and it does not seem quite right. Before mentioning anything stop and think. Are they really not playing correctly? If there is a legitimate error,maybe send them a tell and have them either read the in-game guide or direct them to a forum if not then let it be. Or better yet try and correct in game and in character like, "Hmm I always thought... etc.

Personally I try and play outside of the box as I did with my retired characters Azura and Avrora. The same with my current characters Caramiriel, Rimeth and Marister. Now how far outside the box Rim and Mar will be has yet to be seen. ;)

The recent nerfing of preaching did have me quite irked as it hampered what I felt was a legitimate rp tool for Caramiriel a priestess. However this is a game and I can work around it as I realize other things have been nerfed like the time one can get xp and such for turning in slaves.


Time-stop- I so wish this was a local spell as it is elsewhere rather than a mod stopping spell as often it interferes with rp in my opinion worse than preaching ever did. I know we can not control bandits and such who use this but if you are a player who has the ability to cast it whether naturally or on an item, please use it sparingly.

I must give props to the stance here on judicious use of housebreaking and pickpocketing. Which allows thieves to play their class yet not at the expense of enjoyment of others game play and achievements.

Also if in a mixed class of adventures mundane and magical,divine etc, please give time and allow people to prepare just do not prepare yourself and go.
The player behind the character Khreed has rped jokingly that it takes him a year to buff.

Also please do preplanning of strategy before entering with a party. Just do not go in willy nilly and then have someone complain on how another acted. In this light just because maybe one or more in a party is in a legion does not necessarily mean their tactics always correct. Discussion of tactics prior to buffing and going some where can just be just as enjoyable. Remember characters may have been in the area before and are speaking from their own experience. Naturally if there are more than one in the party of the same legion then that legionnaire would have to obey the dictates of their commanding officer.

I believe that OOC should be used as little as possible when in a group or in any case to be honest! Especially when adventuring because it defers from the true feel of the game if everyone is OOC'ing about how they are and what they are doing! I get annoyed slightly by the fact that when you are adventuring and someone wants a long conversation with you OOC, I find that Tells are the way forward if they don't respond automatically presume they are busy and will get back to you! I try and stick to IC all the time as remember you are playing a character not talking on a Social Network site so to speak! I think all of Purulent Carcasses points should be taken seriously by any player no matter what because i actually agree with him totally! Unless on the Preaching i tend to have preaching battles every now and then with players or you are playing with a friend and both of you are preaching but if there is a group in that area it's not difficult or an inconvenience for you to move to a silent area and preach so as not to disturb the RP that is going on! Remember everyone is here to play so as in every respect you should fully respect how the person next to you plays! As for the horses i believe that you do not need to ride a horse through town if you are passing through that is fine but walk your horse don't run it also creates a little lag if a group of players are in the town and a horse is running around because of the FPS is breached by the speed of a running horse! Myself i rarely get my horse out in towns i usually only saddle my horse if i am going to travel the roads! I do not wish to offend any players playing style but be mindful of others when entering an area!
