It's great that you show so much passion for writing CS's. However it is also a bit of a mistake if you are going to write so much, to do it in one sitting without checking you arn't going astray, especially if you are going to invent a whole list of spells in Latin when the CS doesn't ask you to. So whilst I sympathize with having to change a lot of your CS to continue, CS's are meant to be changed. If you felt that the magic system was unspecified you should have brought it up, not written your own magic system. To be clear; I'm not trying to heap criticism on you here, just trying to explain the way I see it.=> Derpestein you are literally bitching about people bitching about people bitching. Meta much.
allow me to explain why I, and thousands other role players in a fantasy rp, would make such a mistake to making their own magic spells and systems.
In general, if a pre-explained magic system was not provided, that would mean that normally it was meant for the players to make up their own systems, a freedom in character skills and such if you would call it.
It is thus not surprising that many people would think of their own systems.
I as well thought that if there is no pre-given magic system, that its an all things go.
give people the chance to make their own sub-mage classes, I had an more elemental user, others might go with pure healer, some might be a allrounder.
seeing I felt this reminded me off the manga Negima magister, I used their spell setting, so I had to work on latin (only to find that either the spells used in the manga are a really weird type of latin/ self made, as the translation given and the latin did not add up, that or all online translators are faulty on each and every word)
so there my reason why it took so long to make the spells.
anyway, while i know a CS might need to be edited, this was just to much due to new rules, my chars past cant be used with the new settings, and his personality was worked out with the past, so that wont work anymore, then even excluding the latin, looking at all the magic rules, I only keep one spell that might (trough barely) fit into the rules and that one is a lightning body improvement spell, so aside the natural damage to the user (thanks to that rule) the body spell would without a doubt make that effect even worse (when logically thinking about it) so its a "I will increase my speed and agility and afterwards I will be paralyzed and unable to join, plus the spell in a fight would not be enough to win so my enemy would kill me as soon as my body caves in"
there is a difference between having to edit a char and start over from scratch
but that all aside, that was only one part of why I left.
Main reason is the high level activity here, I love the fact that its so active, but if the IC is just as active as the OOC, then I wont be able to keep up
(having to work once my hand gets better) running a household and most important of all, raise my little baby boy
pretty big bummer, otherwise I would have made a new char if I still had the easy go live I had when I went to school.
if I had not had to remake my chars, I might have risked it and otherwise left if it truly was to much, but all things together...
well at least if my negima IntCheck gets some people I have a char basis XD
but I fear that is not going to happen anytime soon...
its been up for a while and nothing...
