I hope this turns out well- everything looks good so far.

The name-system sounds good. You always need some sort of regulation if you want RPing to succeed. Look at GK... they left things kind of open on that, and it went out of control. Even people who consider themselves RPers on GK have some ridiculous names taken from other stories,movies,games, etc.

Chris Zakuto is not crazy

(though, admittedly, Zakuto is a rather weird last name, though nothing compared to my real last name, which I won't state)

How are you enforcing the names?

Things like Chris, Paul, John, Sal, etc? Or do you need last names as well?

What if you have a crazy name, like Sir Johnauntinnapleneatspieforthewinontuesday in real life?

The idea was for players to name their characters with a "nickname", and I've been thinking about making it possible for people to gain/purchase titles, and "join" families (purely for RP though) etc. that would modify their visual name.

"join" families? I think it's better to let players deal with families themselves. Though, I suppose it would be nice if it could be controlled who has one name (several people add Zakuto after their name on GK and scam, etc. Gives us a bad name)

Was merely suggesting something along the lines of players being able to create families (which would have no other use then looks) and have other players joining them. Of course, you wouldn't be able to change more then say once a month or something.

I dunno, I like the hierarchy idea... one ruler being able to add/remove people simply sounds like a dumbed down guild system.
Being able to 'quit' a family and join another... well that doesn't sound like a family at all.

making tilesets yourself would be better :0

I was merely tossing the idea out there when I mentioned it in this thread, haven't really given it much of a thought.

I agree, it's definitely not something we'll work on anytime soon, but alas it might be added later on.

I don't have time to deal with that kinda bull****, I'm trying my best to get a working and as lag free as possible playerworld running, without slacking with quality. So please, stay away from us unless you can be dedicated for more then a few minutes.
