Yes...

The massive respect toward our town,cause, and its laws continues.

Please, someone set up a target, many of us tire of watching this.
I'll even help if it will prevent this madness from occuring.

I believe there are a few different places that already have targets that even score for you.

Go find one of those if you wanna shoot things.

Or shoot me and see what happens...

Holy War - two groups fighting over whos imaginary friend is better.

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I-
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

it may shoot back, however.

IC

The general lawlessness of our once safe village is very alarming. Dead angry farmers, greeters and druids are commonplace, and on entering the blue boar recently, most of the people there were dead too. Who is killing our townsfolk and where are our Guards when we need them?

The death of townsfolk has nothing to do with friends getting together to have some fun.

Those who dared to lay a hand on commoners would know the blade of my axe soon enough. Tossing darts at a sign is hardly harmful.

I can't see why you are complaining.

I do not believe i was complaining. I was merely making observations about the lack of discipline in our village. Perhaps when I do see something which is agaist the law I should just turn a blind eye, as I am sure I would not be the only one.[/i]

I am sorry to say that the Redboots can not be on every waking hour of the day and night. If there are crimes being committed and people turn a blind eye how can the criminals be brought to justice. I would hope that every citizen of Daris would not let these acts go without at least a notification to a member of the Redboots when one is available. With the amout of citizens that play compaired to the amount of Redboots we are hugely out numbered and any assistance in bringing these criminals to justice is appreciated. Your report will be kept in the strictest of confidence to guard against any reprocussions of the criminal. The only people who would know of the reports would be the members of the Redboots.


No one is above the law, and it is every citizens duty to protect the village of Daris. So please do not complain that the Guard is not doing their job or turing a blind eye. Help us gather the needed information so we can bring the criminals to justice.

Would a target range make much difference?

Post by jverz »

Obviously people would be throwing darts, knives, etc.. at the signs in town because the signs happen to be where the people throwing things are resting and/or waiting. I seriosly doubt puttnig up a target range would have much as it requires going to the range to throw.

I think it would be interesting and funny to imbue the signs with the ability to deflect from, throw back at, or fire at people that try to damage them.

I agree with Captain Gandreck completely, whoever breaks the law must be brought to justice. No one is above the law.

But what we are talking about here is not the murder of townsfolk, we are talking about people poking harmless fun by shooting at signs. May it be the Village Map or the Town Laws.. it's a sign.

I'm sorry, but I just don't see eye to eye with some people here. Yes, perhaps it can get a little chaotic, and I support no one that hits another in these 'games' (And they are games).

In a time of war, people need to lighten up and let some steam loose. Shooting signs and objects is harmless. I'm sure everyone has cast the odd spell, thrown the odd arrow or bashed with the odd sword at the signs of Daris!

We're blowing this out of proportion, I don't even know why this topic was even created.

I agree completely. It's jsut in character for most people to do things like that. You should see what me and my unit does to let off steam when we're at war (OoC) Especially after about the 13th hour on shift. We start to lose are minds just a little.

In game this IS a hostile zone. You can get attacked any moment. Not to mention people need to keep their skills sharp.

The only thing that I can say about shooting the signs is that it is an annoyance. They do not get damaged in any way and if the people want to spend their hard earned gold on arrows or whatever to shoot at a sign instead of our enemy then I can not say that shooting an inanimate object is harmful in any way. There are better things to shoot at but it is their choice.

There's an OOC reason for that, Gandreck..

It was day 19. I don't think anyone want's to really go to the Ruins, the lag spikes were betting very bad, and the only thing people wanted to do was either mope around.. and that isn't very entertaining. So we reverted to target practice.
