Fun With a Kangaroo

[Kumog]

Yes, that is Captain Kangaroo standing on top of Lirea's Castle in a normally inaccessible spot. He's that awesome.

Yes, he's elsewhere now, he just wanted to scare a black mage...

[Hikari]

Ahah... Did the Blackmage get scared? o.o

It really does sound rather scary, being able to climb into an inaccessible spot and scaring someone...>_<

[Rand]

I want that climbing gear back.

[U. Dye]

Here. *gives Rand a throwing knife* Just aim for the small of the back. Trust me. This little bastard will not miss.

[Hikari]

*Laughs* Mister Rand is going to force them off of there if he doesn't get his gear.

[Rand]

You'd better believe I will. That stuff is not cheap.

[Hikari]

Aren't you a Brotherhood Member? Can't you teleport yourself up there and grab the gear and get them off? o.o

*Waves to the people in Lirea's Castle*

[Sur Realis]

Actually, Hikari-chan, this was discussed once on wSay. All the Brotherhood members have administrator abilities that are necessary, and nothing more. Except Announce. o.O; Kija had a huge rant about it that in other BYOND games, many people that are Admin, or sometimes GMs, don't deserve it, and get things such as 'Edit' and 'Teleport' which takes away the actual fun of the game for the people that you help. Kija could explain better, if you wanted to know precisely the reason why there are no administrator abilities like Teleport.

[Hikari]

Oh, okay. But if Captain Kangaroo were to stay there and not return the gear, soon, Mister Rand will probably get up there and sneak behind him... *Hides*

[Rand]

Yesss, I will. And I can answer that myself.

Editing, Teleportation, all of these kind of things take away from a game's fun, cause imbalance, and stark favoritism amongst factions of players, and in fact cause factions in the first place. Without them, we are server mods who play the game just like everyone else. Not being any different save a few more commands and a distinctive icon set is what sets us apart from many other games' administrators.

For one, we can't be power-hungry gods in our own little world. For two, it helps remind us that we are players as well, and cannot do as we please. Which many other games do not have. Rules cannot be obeyed and followed if the enforcers break them whenever they please. "A king who follows not his own laws, has none."

[Hikari]

Ohh, okay~ Nya, so how does Mister Rand get his gear back? And how did the Lireans get up there anyhow? Who was the person that Captain Kangaroo scared? Mew, so many questions...=.=

[Rand]

The Lireans have keys to the locked door, granted them by the King. After all, lookouts must have access to their posts. And, Mister Rand gets it back by having Kangaroo remove himself from the post 'lest he be removed.

[Soren]

Haha.

We DO have any and every kind of command in the test server though. Setting your level really high and going berserk is pretty damn fun.

[Hikari]

*Dies* ^^' Nyaa, so it's like a Sugar Rush? When you get High-Leveled, you go crazy, and hyper, but when you return to normal, you get bored and just want to get Sugar-High again, mew? o.o'
