just let people have fun? we’re not hurting anyone? we just want to rp our dragons in peace?
They’re literally standing out in the faction’s capital cities. You (unfortunately) have to talk to Kalecgos like five times in a major quest last expac. Anyone who says this really hasn’t been paying attention in the World of Warcraft at all.
tfw people in 2018 still think WoW dragons are super mysterious and secretive and not actually huge scaley cats drinking your pepsi and calling you a bitch
Not this discussion again. Time to trot out this thing I made:
Hi. RPing dragons is fine. RPing half dragons is fine. RPing quarter dragon quarter siren half elf is fine. Roleplay is about the exercise of applying the lore in ways that interest you and make you happy. If that means stretching, bending, or even breaking it? All good. If that’s not your preference, feel free to ignore it and play with people who share your sensibilities. There is nothing to be gained from shitting on other people’s good time.
This psa brought to you by a very tired designer who just wants people to be excellent to each other.
The 8.0 prepatch is almost here, and there are some major changes to roleplay profile addons that everyone needs to be aware of. So please read this, and pass along the information to those you know that don’t read the forums. First and foremost: All roleplay profile addons need to be updated for 8.0. New addons will not interact with old addons, and old addons will not work properly in 8.0. MyRolePlay, TotalRP3, and XRP will all have releases ready for 8.0 going live. I’ll update this post with direct links to the official 8.0 releases as they become available. Releases for 8.0 will only work on 8.0. Do not use them with 7.3.
Beyond this update, be aware that all roleplay profile contents will be logged and can be reported to Blizzard for abuse. An issue arose within the past year or so where some individuals were extensively using roleplay profiles to harass others on an ongoing basis, or to publish someone else’s personal details. As such, implementing the reporting capability became a high priority for profile addons, and it has been done in time for 8.0 prepatch launch.
This means you should clean up your profiles now. The guidelines on acceptability are roughly what you’d see in public chat channels. If you wouldn’t say it in /say, don’t put it in your profile. These reports are all reviewed exclusively by Blizzard – addon authors have no power or influence whatsoever, so please don’t hurl abuse at any of them if your profile is ever reported.
That said, I ask that everyone exercise common courtesy when it comes to reporting. Don’t abuse the report system – abuse of the report system to harass someone can result in actions against your account, instead of the person being reported. Furthermore, please use your judgement when it comes to reporting – try to reserve reports for profiles that incite hatred or violence, that harass and target individuals, or that publish personal or harmful details on others. These sorts of profiles, while few and far between in a community like this, are serious enough problems that this needed to be done.
Finally, there may very well be bugs. Please keep an eye out for updates to your roleplay profile addon of choice over the coming days and weeks. If you encounter behaviour you suspect is a bug, please report it to your addon’s author, preferably on the project’s bug/issue tracker.
If you’re comfortable with it, please consider running the following command in your WoW game to enable Lua errors:
/console scriptErrors 1
Run the same command with 0 replacing 1 to disable Lua errors. Enabling Lua errors may help find any bugs that need to be fixed, which would be greatly appreciated. While these addons have been extensively tested on beta and PTR, nothing compares to the chaos that is live servers.
Thank you.
7/17/2018 1:45am PST:
The new versions are out.
IMPORTANT! Do not download/install these until the servers go down (unless you’re logging out for the night/going to bed). These will not work on the current live servers.
We are holding auditions for an upcoming RP campaign which will be primarily developed through both Discord and World of Warcraft. The details of the campaign are confidential for the time-being, but the description for our needed roles are as follows:
A male elven veteran with a gruff, yet articulate voice.
A female elf, something akin to a Windrunner sister.
A male elf with a polished, albeit haughty voice.
A older male elf with a gentle, almost creepy voice.
These voices will be used for a series of videos that will be uploaded to YouTube. Monetary compensation can be negotiated. If you are interested in auditioning, please contact Tendael on Moon Guard in this thread, in-game, or Discord at Tendael#3083.
