    Too Much Stuff

    Whoo hoo rumors. I think that shoudl put this to bed then doesn't sound like the original complaint had anything to do with actual "he's too low level to have stuff" The moral is if you steal don't get caught :)

    Too Much Stuff

    I'm gonna go against the grain here and say that this is a problem. I don't know the details and there may have been plenty of other reasons to accuse the fellow and punish him thats all fine. I how ever always find it to be a problem when level is used in game especially in a situation like...

    Its a philosophy that has legs but also signifigant flaws. Mostly that its already too late. We through action and inaction have made ourselves a target abandonment of international involvment will not put an end to us being a target. Aditionally we do not live in a vacume, there are social...

    I'm glad you caught the then leave line it was meant to be a referance to that rhetoric exactly. But you do have that choice its just not a reasonable one :) What part of the bill of rights exactly covers health insurance? I'm saying if the companies will not cover you you do not have a...

    Try facts over rhetoric and think for a moment about something other than your wallet and I think it all will make a great deal more sense to you. You do in fact choose to pay for medicare, social security, property tax, etc. You choose to do so when you choose to live in this country. Don't...

    Well what I was addressing was the 50% of what one makes, as that pretty directly addresses income I wnet wih income tax. Some may be over 50% after all the taxes but I'm fairly certain its not the average citezen as the biggest chunk is income tax. and they are going to be at less than 34.3% I...

    And they don't. The highest tax bracket is 35% so even Those in the highest tax brackets aren't paying 50%, For the median houshold income (50,740 according to 2007 census, its likely gone down in the present economic climate) the taxe rate is 15% for couples filing jointly and 25% for a single...

    Loot

    You may want to better publicize your crusade, The crowd you usually run with are a bit on the mercenary side by reputation and I think you get lumped in. I haven't seen much in the way of weapons go out a few but not a huge number personally, I base alot of my expectations on the lack of...

    Loot

    Its fairly rare that we get random "stuff" loot usually its strait production Items or magic Items or coin. But we do get a fair chunk of Production Items. there are almost always potions/scroll/alchemy in the loot pile. I will also say that despite the commoness of shatter/destroy effects I...

    Forget latex weapons; What about foam latex SHIELDS?

    This. I am actually alergic to latex, thankfully not severly, and it is a progressive allergy so more exposure does generally mean worsening symptoms. The info provided is good to know but as Traeger said, for larp purposes most latex Items are sealed, this is mostly to protect the latex fromt...

    Forget latex weapons; What about foam latex SHIELDS?

    So long as the shield meets size requirments (which many may not as our shields are tiny) and has 5/8" of closed cell foam around the edge it would probably be legal buyt really it comes down to individual chapters or marshalls. The tricky part with the foam shields is that its hard to prove...

    First Char. Creation(Wyldekin)

    Welcome to alliance. Artisan is cool if you want multiple production schools but htats really it. This is usually a pretty combat intensive game so the limited/expensive combat skills for artisans can make it less fun at time. That said some people just don't want to fight much and are happy...

    Graphite Golf Clubs

    Best way to balance a weapon is to add weight to the hilt area. This can be tough in some cases. you can add a weight to the hoolow cor if you can secure it so it doesn't shift but some weapons marshalls may look sideways at bolts or bateries stuck in your hilt. I usually use some scrap...

    Pickax

    Cloth cover is your friend. If its all open cell and well anchored a cloth covered pick axe will give enough not to trap weapons and is very unlikely to tear off. this assumes you are carefull not to trap weapons with it intentionally, I mean even a standard sword can trap if you do it right...

    Pole weapon construction?

    PVC swung at the same speed as one of the various UL cores can leave marks, inertia is a bitch, thouge you are right that means swing slower. Bamboo makes excelent long weapons it has very little flex over its length and especially in spring is pretty easy to find. I usually bring a small...
