Bettering Achaea

Greetings to all fellow Achaeans,

A while back, I posted some tips and tricks to make Achaea a better
place for everyone. The premise of the article was on the subject of
roleplay and I'm very glad to say that it was well received. I've
since gotten messages from many of you that wholly agree with me.
Since many of you have probably not read this far back, and have been
gone, I leave referance to it now. The post was #3482. I was rather
shocked and humbled at a couple of the responses which you may also
want to check out(as it verifies these views aren't just my own).
These posts are numbers 3483(from Deucalion) and 3500(from Sarapis).

This is rather important to me because when playing a game such as
Achaea, the word "play" takes on a different meaning from what you
may be used to. To "play" Achaea involves a lot more than just
exploring and killing anything in your path. It involves much more
than "questing". Achaeans, that is only 25% of the fun of the game.
By all of us making a sincere effort to *really* roleplay, that is
where the real fun starts to come in, and where a lot of the
challenge lies.

A lot of folks here have mastered the art of battle. Many have
championed others in free for alls. Now it's time for the real
challenge and fun of Achaea, to master the art of roleplaying. I
have made it my goal to be very strict on myself in this and hope
others will follow suit. And please take the time to read my other
post as that has many good points in it.

Humbly yours,
Grandmaster Alloy
