OOC Info [OOC Thread] Moving with the Herd

[Colt]

The striders... the bond between horse and Drykas... I knew it! Their Friendship is Magic!

But yeah. This is good to hear. It's nice to have this in concrete written form on the site, since a lot of this information isn't easily found otherwise. I didn't know Lhex had such feelings towards the Web, though. Drykas voodoo is best voodoo.

[Tribal]

Nor did I, I know the lore pages linked to the city quite well, and of course being in chats you pick up the odd thing, but not everyone goes to chats I understand. I've learnt a lot today as well so I thought it fitting this go here for all Endrykas players, cos I know some of us can get so busy we have our blinders on, hopefully this makes sure anyone playing in Endrykas knows a little bit more info now and of course if you see anything new folks struggling with an idea, let them down kindly!

[Kyo]

I wish I had known all this before I had Kyo go and bond to a Strider. v_v I feel so dumb now. Probably I didn't think things through enough.

At least his Strider didn't automatically like him. No magic friendship here. Just a horse that doesn't trust him yet and doesn't like the way he smells. Like Goss said, he'll have to put a lot of work into the relationship.

[Tribal]

We live and learn, don't beat yourself up, bud. I should have known and pointed you all straight, my fault guys! Seriously though, not the end of the world aye, there is still so much fun to be had and plots to create! I'm going to post soon to L's Plunder for you :]

[Gossamer]

If a horse doesn't trust you then you don't have a bond.

[Kyo]

I was just trying to make their relationship realistic and put work into progressing it, like you said, since I made the mistake of bonding when I shouldn't have. I'm trying to play things as right as I can in the situation.

[Kaitanu]

Rping is learning. Heaven knows we've all made mistakes! I might have gone for bonding with a Strider if I wasn't playing a horse kelvic (and also I've never been sure about kelvics bonding with Striders, if it's possible, etc.) I can't imagine that particular bit of "Friendship Is Magic" would work for him. That or the webbing. But that's the fun of rping- you never know what will come out of it!

[Ixzo]

Well, that was eventful.

Anyhoo. Anyone who I promised to start a thread for, I have to apologize. I'm still going to do it, but I'm sure some of you have waited absurdly long. I have no reason, I'm just very slow, and likely will continue to be slow until I get these out.

I have one for Cedar, Naiya, Graham, and Mere to start. If I missed you, please let me know. And if you are terribly impatient and just would like to start it rather than wait for me to, you can do that as well.

And replies will be shortly afterwards.

Also, with this new development on bonding, or not bonding, with striders, I have to throw away Ixzo's current over-arching plot. So now, I am looking for another way to not get kicked out of Endrykas for being so weird, and I think that will just have to be making some serious friendships. So if anyone I've threaded with before would like to start up another thread, I would be more than happy to. I know this is contradicting considering I am so behind, but I think I will catch up soon.

But yeah, so sorry I'm so slow guys xD

[Azmere]

I'll pm you some ideas, Ixzo. XD. We all go through spells of slothfulness, don't worry about it.

[Pearl]

Heading for home tomorrow and it will take me 2 days drive to get there. Unfortunately, it looks like I'm going to run into snow on the way home.

Tribal, I know you are trying to stay on schedule with the thread, and I promise I will work on a post as quickly as I am able, but it might be late Sunday evening, or even possibly Monday before I am able to sit down and write since I am going to have to deal with the weather and driving home through the snow storms. I'm sorry for any delay and I'll do the best I am able to get a post up quickly.
