NEVERSILENT'S PROFILE

"Greetings, everybody. How is business going? We brought some more materials. With all the stuff we have now, we could probably outfit a whole regiment. Say, have you already ordered some of the things I asked for?" Then I turn towards Wes and say: "Oh, and you might want to keep an eye on your kid..."

----------

To be honest, I've lost track of all our crafting materials and what we can do with them. I still want to get a hatchet and better armour. What possibilities do we have for that? And who wants some of those runes and essences?
Oh, and we should sell all the materials we don't need. We're running a bit low on money as it is.

^ Did not commit an act of excess verbiage despite being explicitly told to. Shame!

< Is sad about not being the greatest reviewer of all time.

v Is too slow.

I usually avoid posting in topics like these because I find it hard to constructively discuss such issues in forums. But I just can't get around it this time.

Lato, it is very obvious you have strong opinions, and there is nothing fundamentally wrong with that. I can't and won't try to convince you to change your position and suddenly start hating Putin and the Russian government or such things. I only want you to ask yourself: What is truly important?

You make is sound as if the desire of Eastern Ukrainians to keep their Country intact and not join Russia is worth less than the desire of the others that want to be Russian. Why is that? Is really worth it to have so many people killed and become killers just for the sake of changing a few borders? Are notions of an "Empire" more important than the humans in the countries you're talking about? Wouldn't a real father rather try to keep his children alive and well by supporting them instead of caring more about the ground they are living on than about their actual lives?

I'm not foolish enough to think America or Europe or any other part of the world is perfect and never makes mistakes. I strongly disagree with many of Russia's polictical decisions, but that doesn't mean I dislike Russians as people. Similarly, there are a lot of things wrong in other parts of the world, including the part I live in, and I am glad many people stand up against those social evils. But calling others "scum" because they represent an idea of the world you do not support is going very far.
You say you have faith. Are the Ukrainians not allowed to have faith in their respective country? Or the Americans, for that matter? They are humans just like you, after all. Why would you respect the wishes of some, but not those of others?

Now, those images of the leader of a state being like a "father" and bringing people from neighbour countries "back home" are expressions that have been used to justify aggressions in the past a lot. Even Germany used those exact words for propaganda campaigns during the Second World War. So it is no wonder Linkis was being sceptical about your utterances.
Don't get me wrong. I am not trying to compare anyone here to Nazi Germany. All I am trying to say is: Do not idealize. Being angry about one side's bad actions but ignoring those of another can easily set you on a very wrong path. Don't allow that happen to yourself.

Sure! The project's name is The Book of True Will. It's a story-heavy puzzle RPG made with RMXP.

Thanks a lot, unity. You're unbelievably awesome! ^_^

Sheesh, there's no way we can take all of that stuff with us. We'll definitely take the runes, essences and Power Stones. The shell chunk might also be useful (maybe as a shield for Zuko?). I don't know if we still need more Murkal scales, and I have no clue as to why we should want the Murkal lungs. Gross...
