Some of my new ideas for Dustari.

Since the new castle levels are going to be uploaded this weekend, possibly earlier than I expected, I might as well ask for public opinion on some of the changes I intend to make to Dustari.

For example, I may or may not use a new tag system I just thought up earlier this morning.

Instead of having <position> <name> of (Dustari), I might have it something like this...for example, in my case:

Kamuii Shirou, King of (Dustari)

or, perhaps, for Xythar:

Xythar Ceavok, Magistrate of (Dustari)

Is it good, or should I stick with the traditional <position> <name> tagging system? I always like to be unique, and alot of the newer Kingdoms and one of the old copied my "of (Dustari)" bit. So I need something new.

Also, as far as ranking and promotion goes; I used to promote people depending on how much I saw them do, etc. From now on, all entry-level people into the military will be Squires, and I'll either attatch them to someone or let them go on their own. After a week, if they are on tag and show that they're a good, decent RPer, then they will be promoted to Footman, or a Horseman, or an Archer, etcetera.

Do you like this idea?

I don't have time to post them all, I will continue to update this around 10:00 when I am in my Teacher Assistant class when I have time to continue.

Kalaron used to be Derrick *King*. I don't really like the Kamuii, King of idea, but it could be used.

Even tho i am not part of dustari, i feel it right to comment on this topic:

I say keep it the way it is, it allows for organization.
I personally keep my playerlist in abc order, and if you have it <position> <name> <tag>, then people with the same position would appear next to each other, and i find that very useful when having to find someone quick with alot of people on.....but then again, if you dont know the person's position, it could be a great hassle to find his/her name since it'll in abc order of the position
take your pick

The Death Star was destroyed, and the Empire routed. For now. But the fight would go on. I knew I had much to make up for. Marskan still hated me, and for a good reason. Raider still wouldn't talk to me, and a lot of young pilots had died because I had made them feel invincible. I doubted that I would ever be able to atone for my mistakes.
At least Lynia didn't hate me. Now that the immediate threat was over, she'd promised to spend more time with me. So I had hope. And I had a mission. Like Luke, I would one day learn to master the Jedi way and once and for all banish the taint of the Dark Side within me.

doesn't really matter...you're the king, make the tag how you want it. And when did an old kingdom copy the Of? Pirates and Samurai don't use it...I know, I'm a samurai and I've never seen a pirate use of in his nick.

Then why have the "(Pirate Crew)" at all? It's still part of your name then by your reasoning, and the "of" being there or not would not/should not matter.

(Pirate Crew) is not a incharacter name object

Neither is "of (Dustari)".

Think of it this way.

At court, they did not say "Lord Variel De'torrance, Marseilles". They would say "Lord Variel De'torrance of Marseilles". That's how I figure the "of (Dustari)".

Notice the ( ) around the tag >=)
That example shows sort of how it would be incharacter or so it looks like...

Added note...The new tag it ruins the whole reason of being king =X

Why change what is still good?

If you want my input which i doubt any of you do but i'll give it to you anyways.

Name (Dustari) would be better. Have them introduce themselves in a RP sort of way if someone doesn't know what position they are in the kingdom. Also have them dress as their position as well.
