We have such areas.

They're called inn rooms and homes. Leave the doors open.

On a semi-related topic: I remember inn rooms being rentable for 24 hours. Any chance that could come back again? There's a ton of rooms that...just don't get much use.

I don't understand the 'thrill' claim to public sex

What's so thrilling about it when getting caught involves...nothing?

seriously trevor, i agree. if you don't let people have sex in the streets, then george bush has his platform for outlawing free speach and sending them all to terrorism island. there's absolutely no difference between an online game that doesn't influence reality at all and, you know, actual society.

And yet you completely ignore where I said people should be conciderate and not force others to view them in the midst of sex. In effect, agreeing with you. I see how it's hard for you to garner support now. Good luck in your endeavors.

I played DR from beta, and I played GS3 from well before DR opened. It was always that repressed. Before DR even opened, I was warned for whispering "fuck!" to my RL brother's character in GS3 when a troll injured me badly.


That is probably my greatest fear. I hated it in DR, especially when I had someone going out of their way to aggravated me, and that was protected by policy.

As for suggestions, I don't think a fine is out of the question. Not sure what it can be based on, but I'd say it should be harsh for CC. I would agree there. But it should be for public sex. That has a definition. Sex performed in a selected public area. And I think the fines shouldn't necessarily be equal, but they should be comparable to murder. It should be enough that someone looking to kill someone who had public sex will consider them paying a fine acceptable, lest they pay a fine as well. However if they still wish to, they at least were shown what they did was just as illegal. I know that won't bother some, but if they want to use a home rent payment to satisfy their urges (on both counts) who am I to argue?

As for creating areas, if that idea passes, I would suggest making the Rainbow similar to the casino. A place people can walk in and feel free to indulge. It isn't a bad idea, I just think it got dropped in the same bucket as 'censorship' and thus mostly lost in the chaos. I would be happy to help if I can.

In one of my many curious and outright blatant "gotta see for myself" trips. I found a couple in the throes of cyber passion in an out of the way spot and whispered "I can see ghosts. I can see you. Where do I look now?" That person exited on the spot, the partner left moments later. I've never seen them back. Is it really that hard to say something. I think they'd be mortified for the most part.

If that didn't work, why not get on the comm and announce that there's a show to see at such&such a place. That might get them moving.

Of all the people who have "stumbled" on actual cybersex, how many have actually told or showed the people where to go? How many of you have even Prayed to Gemrem? I'm sure that would be fun, be in the middle of a key moment and suddenly slam your head to the ground. I know the GM's keep causing Gemrem's curse to fall on each other to remind us, the players, to actually USE the curse for the purpose it was made. Not pray just because you're bored and feel like being cursed yourself.

I think it's silly to complain that one is tired of stumbling on "sex" and yet have done nothing to help solve the problem but complain and whine.

For the record, as much as I like the Gemrem idea, it's really hard if you're the only one that witnessed the cybersex to use Gemrem as an option. If you do you have to rally a bunch (I forget the exact number) of other people that 1) never saw it happen and 2) weren't affected by it to curse someone that they probably have never met before if you want it to actually work, which is something I've never really enjoyed about the curse.

Heck, even when there have been times when a large amount of people have disliked one person at the exact same time it was STILL really hard to get Gemrem to work. *fondly remembers a little human with a foul mouth who didn't like her maps*

Okay so as usual I'm confused. How then does just one person praying for themselves get the curse... if it takes more then one?

It takes something around six votes I think to trigger a curse. Every time someone votes, however, there is some chance that crazy Gemrem fellow will put a curse on them instead.

I know the way I get it for myself is either 1) pray for an active GM or 2) pray for anyone and everyone.

I think it is a good idea, cuz I sure don't like having to foraging in a room where people have done things I don't wanna know about. I don't like walking in on it either. So Yes make areas for that, so I know where it is safe to walk and forage. Laughing

I don't see new areas solving the problem at all. They'll just get bored with the new areas and go back to public.

Couldn't you, like... have a filter or something that prevented people from using certain words in a act command in public places? Like so...

Code:
act fucks you in teh butt!!1eleveneleven!1
You shouldn't do that here.


It's censorship, but not that bad.

There would still be ways to word things to get around that.

Code:
act places his huge ding-dong in your soap box.

Wewt...I am the tie breaker...But not just for the sake of being one.

I myself am one of the so-called Sexual Deviants mwa-ha-ha...Though I do it for roleplay...Not for the sole-sake of shagging...I don't seek out in-game relationships solely for the booty....Yar-har! I have a girlfriend for that, tyvm.

But even I myself, who has dabbled in voyuerism and exhibitionism, know that not everyone wants ta see whompin willies and wide-open thighs.

But my BIGGEST concern with this...Isn't that people are offended by it...Or that we need a moral/ethical code...

It's just that...ugh...so many people do it so distastefully and badly....

Jim joe bob licks you up and down nice and hot baby!

And that's more credit to their spelling than most of 'em deserve.

I'm not saying I'm supreme cyber master...But I sure as hell don't want an audience judging me if I am or not...And I sure as hell don't want to be judging others. In all my time in Haelrahv, ultra-secluded public places, and not common public places, as well as private areas like the inn and such, have never been a hassle.

If you feel the need to be rebellious...Chances are you're still in an adolascent phase too young to even think about what that area of your body wants...

If you're doing it just cause you can...Well...In theory...I could find out where you live and come slit your throat just CAUSE I CAN...But doing what you can isn't exactly always a good idea.

But really...If you're playing Haelrahv just to cyber in Cloud Court....GG, go back to yahoo chat please. You're in a game that's community based...You do for your community, and your community does for you...It goes both ways, good and bad.
/endrant

Oh btw...If this is incredibly old...I apologize for reviving it...I have just seen all the hubbub in other threads about it and wanted to post my 2 cents.

being late to tis thread yet again....

yes it probly would be good to see certain areas for adult behaviour of a sexual profanatic nature but.......

if these areas where opened up what would be put in place for voyeurs of that nature not to head there to see whats happening?
talk goes round the unsavioury natured characters get to hear of these areas and basically come here for the peep show :shudders:

also dregs been here a long long while and can honestly say although she has heard talk of this wild sexually fuelled partys and solo acts goin on she hasnt ever witnessed one Twisted Evil

and if she has acccidently stumbled on something she thinks may be leadin to that she either left the area or made some embarressing comment hopin the offending people would leave Twisted Evil

finally two of my sons play and yes being my sons they are aware of a lot of adult stuff i am hoping that being smart kids they will stear away from the kind of conduct they see dreg doing and saying but if not ...id like to see it made a damn lot harder for them to find a place they can do this in without me catching them and givin them the advice needed at the time Twisted Evil
