Evil at its Finest | OOC | Closed For Now

[Bearon]

I don't believe they should be allowed to do that as that would be OP. I mean think about it the Overlord's endgame is to rule over the Earth which means no more worshippers for the gods. What are we going to do when it gets to that point?

You're the one trying to kill gods through taking advantage of an OOC rule to prevent being OP... and you're complaining about others being OP?

Seriously?

How is trying to find out what I can do with my character and what I can't do taking advantage of anything? And when did I accuse anybody else of being OP?

[Bearon]

Posting slowly....

Hard keeping up with a fast-paced RP and being in others at the same time

Take your time. I'm sure it'll be a good post.

Everybody here is an amazing RP'er and I honestly can't wait to read your post.

[Yoite]

The Overlord isn't going to kill everyone, and people won't stop following Mauro. Even if he rules over all.

That makes absolutely no sense you'll still let them worship gods under your rule?

You know what Bearon.

I'm done, I've had enough of you. Sorry everyone else, but I'm out as long as he is in.

Edit: I've blocked Bearon, to keep my blood pressure down, and will no longer be responding to him from this point on.

[The Batorys]

Yes.

Well I'm sorry to tell you this but your accusation has no grounds and is false.

Edit: Metagaming is using OOC knowledge to your advantage. The Lich doesn't gain anything from this I'm just trying to further my story line and figure out what I can and can't do.

So, you're metagaming.

There is no IC rule that gods can't interfere. That's an OOC rule made because the thread's OP and Co-OPs, wisely, didn't want anybody RPing as gods.

As far as the IC characters know, gods can and do mess with them at any time, for any reason.

[Great Empire of Gamilus]

Everyone, what did I say before, cute stuff and try to calm down...

Tali would not want us fighting..

I'm sorry you have to leave goodbye Yoite. Also Yoite you had to use that cliché strategy threaten to leave so that the OP who's already on your side will kick me out. So predictable but it is a flawless technique.

You do realise....you can't force people not to worship Gods....
It doesn't work...
The Soviet Union tried, they killed millions of people, killed clergymen, repossessed churches and that didn't stop the Orthodox Christians from still being Orthodox Christians.

That's not what my character knows he doesn't know how the gods works though even if he did he would still try to seek vengeance against him regardless of consequences.

[Terintania]

Bearon should be the one to leave, if anyone has to leave.

Yes but there's a difference from keeping any worship from happening then allowing it to happen right under your nose. As Overlord Yoite would be obliged to stomp it out and that would certainly anger those gods.

[Bearon]

Yes, yes we all know how this works. I think everybody can see I'm going to be kicked by the end of this because they are smart enough to see it or are so blinded by their dislike for me that's all they can focus on.

If Balor was to take over the world, or even this continent, do you know how much he'd have to divert to be a "Religion Police" he'd need to dedicate so much time, resources, energy and soldiers (That could be spent elsewhere) into crushing their faith in the Gods - which in the end, will be a very long and almost hopeless process.

Yes it would but he'd still be obliged to stop it whenever he saw it happening and the gods would still be angered by this and the enslavement of their people. Not to mention all the followers that will be killed in the coming war.

[Great Empire of Gamilus]

(Facepalming into brick wall.)

Okay lets clear this up.

You can't kill the gods via direct means, however you can weaken them by getting rid of a significant number of followers but this is impossible in this situation as Mauro has followers all over the world, Bearon you can IC'ly think you can kill Mauro but in reality you can't (however it would take years of police purges and crap to be rid of followers). However Gods can't be total douches to reality and decide "hey, now that you mention it that guy looks like he hates my followers more than that gods two blocks down." and proceeds to zap every mother fuck who touches his goons.


NOW EVERYONE STFU CAUSE YOU WOKE UP TALI!

I understand this and all I wanted was clarification from someone in charge.

I don't dislike you, I dislike your apparent constant need to argue. You could just do what you want to do in the IC and see how it goes from there. Or you could ask something and just simply accept the answer. It's the way you go about asking the questions that cause the problems. Just ask calmly and nicely for clarification, and ask clearly. If you don't understand the answer, point out calmly that you didn't understand.

[Great Empire of Gamilus]

WELL I HAVE PROVIDED THE CLARIFICATION! NOW EVERYONE POST IC'LY AND PLAY NICE!

Now I am going to go marvel at cute Quarians for a bit and finish up my 40k factions RP, when I get back everyone had better be playing nice...

This is a medieval/ancient polytheist society.

People in such societies would tend to assume that gods can and will smite them.

Not only that, this is a society in which some of the gods clearly do exist, unambiguously so.

You are basically insisting, once again, that your character is a complete idiot.

Your points are all addressed by sentences in order below.

I have no need to argue I have the need to clarify.

That has always ended badly for me.

I do ask something and when an OP or Co OP tells me I accept it.

I always try to ask pleasantly.

That's what I strive to do, maybe you can't always tells as my posts cannot convey calmness in themselves.

I have always done so.

Hidden belief is still belief.

Also, the Overlord likely isn't enough of a fool to stomp out people's religious beliefs for no benefit to himself.

Well, no one else has had the problems you have, so clearly it's something you're doing.

Why would he be "obliged" to?

He's evil, not stupid.

Every post you have made for the last 20 minutes have been antagonistic in the most extreme I ask that you please stop.

Now that that's done my character lived in a town of peasants who were treated harshly by people who were supposed followers of Mauro. Grey does not know the capabilities of these gods as a priest would. That being said he should have some knowledge of their capabilities and how real they are but we never specified the people's feeling towards the gods and what they're overall stance might be.
