Marriage

If you wanted kids, eh?

Well, if two guys got married, then they couldn't have kids, thus, making that option useless.

IIRC, the intent was as you aged your stats degraded and the child would be a blend of the 2 parents. After the birth you were to lose your (x2) parents characters but the child would inherit the traits of both parents.

If I remember correctly, both players would get a new character, randomishly based on the parents but with the skills slightly lowered. The parents would then start to look older (there are some npc which actually use the graphics intended for that feature -> http://www.multiwave.be/ryzom/matis/screens/omnpcds.jpg), and unable to respawn after death, so when they die they'd have to be healed in time or they're gone.

Please keep your personal feelings out of this thread as you are breaking the code of conduct, section 11.

"You may not organize nor be part of any guilds or groups that are based on, or espouse, any racist, sexist, anti-religious, anti-ethnic, anti-gay or other hate-mongering philosophy."

This rule also applies to individual behavior as well. Please bear in mind that the code of conduct applies to the Game and Forums in order to allow players to enjoy the game without harassment, intimidation or otherwise disruptive behaviors.

Any further behaviors of the nature in this thread will result in administrative actions against the offending players.


Edit :For clarification purposes let me further state I quoted the behaviors listed in section 11 to underscore that the behaviors of this thread are specifically addressed in the CoC. Kaetemi is correct that section 1 covers the situation. Section 11 expands the behaviors and defines a rule against organized actions.

No it doesn't, the rule you mention is only meant against the creation of groups and guilds based on these things (or joining these groups).

Please stop inventing or misreading rules, thank you.

And if you really want to point to the CoC for this, it would be a minor violation of rule 1. "You may not harass, threaten, embarrass nor discomfort any other players."...

Regardless of what section of the CoC you feel this behavior falls under it is clearly unacceptable. If you wish to privately discuss my interpretation of the CoC please feel free to PM me. Let's return this thread to its intended purpose.

Nah, it's really boring to privately discuss that.

To get back on topic, of marraige and kids, I would LOVE it if there were kids in the game!
IF I could even start out as a kid and it would take 18 real life years to "grow" I wouldn't care! I love options like that, for roleplay reasons!
I just have given up on caring about levels, I never really did. To be a kid and to be so tiny and running around causing trouble..now THAT"D be fun!

You didn't see my entire point.

If two males/female married, they COULDN'T HAVE OFFSPRING, thus making marriage for same sex couples USELESS.

And, I mean no harm to anyone by what I said! So, if it came across as harmful, please forgive me!

On the other hand, I'm very passionate about how humans were created, and how they were suposssed to live - including marriage.

*edit* sorry, forgot some words
