Hmmm...

You can buy as many as you want. So far, they go up 1000 meat each purchase.

You have to "use" them from your inventory - just buying them isn't the same as taking them.

Think I'll just hang onto mine for a few weeks and see if the prices in the mall go up to take advantage of the people that Jick gets hooked.

And then I'll sell them as a public service.

I took the goofballs once, then suffered my withdrawal and didn't get any more.

That was an insidious move by Jick.

I've been a victim of several random acts of kindness.

It's really added something to my game for me to act kindly to strangers in return.

What a thrill I get out of donating some important items to some clueless Noobs!

I'm still to chicken to smash my hippy crap!

OK, we now have 500 archers and recliners for them to sit in. Enough oatmeal to last 200 days.

And, because we have over 170 million meat, you'll all get a little surprise the next time you log in. [Smile]

I'll give you guys my stats if that helps:

mysticality: 239
moxie: 239
clan karma: 6413874
PvP rank: 416
PvP win/loss: 21/20 (only one loss from an attacker, so if you're not into pvp, you should be realitivly well defended.)

I haven't been playing for weeks at a time ... then I went in tonight and played for a few minutes - just in time for the nightly maintenance. Oh, well, I've always got The Sims2.

Is anyone still playing? I forgot about it for a few months, but now I'm playing again. Sadly, they deleted my account because of inactivity. I've had to start anew and applied to join the clan again. If I could be accepted it would be nice. [Smile]

RRR,

I guess I deal with clan stuff now. I hadn't been on KoL for a couple weeks. There is one clan application pending. What's your character name? (Bought some more oatmeal for the troops while I was on just now)

Hey, Porter...

Could you do me a favor and reset my rank in the clan to "grand poobah?" I changed it kinda by accident and now I can't do much for the people left in it right now...

Porter or sndrake, could you change it so members can use the clan stash?

They announced this change on April 20th:

"I've made some changes to the way the Clan Karma system works. Clan leaders can now set an exchange rate for Meat and Karma, and each clan ranking can be given a daily Karma expenditure limit. Existing ranks (which used to be unlimited) were set to 10,000. Members without ranks will not be able to use the stash until they are assigned a rank with a value."

Which means that although I have 397,123 Clan Karma (as WhoosyWhatsit), I can't take anything out of the stash - nor can any of the other members, with the exception of you two.

CaySedai: I got your email and it looks like Porter is on the problem of the clan karma limits.

UofUlawguy: Your characters have been admitted to the clan.

(I'm lucky if I get on KoL once a week these days.)

The clan karma limits are still not taken care of. I now know how to do it. My daughter took over the account I started for her, dropped out of Jatraqueros and started her own clan. She showed me what to do.

Membership roster
Edit ranks
(For the normal members)
Daily karma expenditure limit (put a nice number here)

If those who have the power don't have the time, would you consider allowing someone to step in and assist? I could check in at least 3-4 times a week to see if anything needs to be done.

CaySedai,

it looks like only the highest ranking clan member has the power to set karma limits. We don't have one of those now. (the problem was outlined earlier)

I logged onto KoL a short time ago and sent a message to Jick outlining the problem and asking for help. The rank I have does NOT allow me to adjust the daily karma limit. Unfortunately.

I sent this message in-game to all in the Jatraqueros clan, but just in case anyone missed the message:

quote:
Hey, just to let you know, there is a new clan of Jatraqueros - it's called chapeaustand. There are people who can administer this clan, so if you add something to the stash, you can also use your clan karma to take things out.
This is the clan that Dana (dkw) started. So far, Porter, sndrake and I have joined. All Jatraqueros are welcome to join.

*bump*

I'll be moving all of my characters - including the one who is the only "ranking" member of the Jatrquero clan - over to Chapeaustand over the next week or so. I'm moving stuff from the Jatraquero stash to the Chapeaustand. Once "Drakester" leaves the Jatraqueros clan, there will be no management of that clan at all.

so...

For those of you who stil have active characters, you might want to move them sometime soon.
