What is going on with NoR?

2015/09/19 by Nalates Urriah

Yesterday I got the content of NoR Management’s main message published. There were questions asked and answered at the meeting. Since this is a free form spontaneous DARK role play (RP) game (RPG) taking place in a post apocalyptic world with combat, demons, angles, vampires, lycans, humans and more mixed together… there is drama, in and out of character. And the meeting did devolve into drama as most RP things do. But, we did get some answers to questions.

There are always those that have an issue with a game’s moderators and managers. NoR is no exception. Plus there are those that have left a game for whatever reason with some rage quitting, that have an axe to grind. Often those, people go to other games or even start other games. Even NoR is an example of such a split. A disagreement with the makers of previous Game Meters lead to NoR being formed to use a different style and brand of meter.

NoR Meeting

2015/09/18 by Nalates Urriah

Many of us have played in NoR over the years. If you follow me you know the 9 regions that make up the NoR world shut down. We got a little bit of the story behind the shut down. But, if you have dealt with Linden Lab you something doesn’t sound right about the explanation given. Today we got the rest of the story.

Today at noon SL Time there was a meeting for Norians. I got there early and managed not to crash. So, I got a transcript of the meeting. Voice chat is not a part of NoR role play so it is expected that the meeting would be in chat.

SL being SL the main speaker couldn’t make it into SL.

[2015/09/18 12:10] LONBot: Biz is unable to login at the moment, seems she is “unable to connect to a simulator” but this will do just as well.

I’m not sure who LONBot is or who was running the avatar. Whatever, LONBot has the story. I’ll clean up the chat so it is easier to read. From what is said there is the possibility this was Biz, but other comments make me think not.

Kokua Viewer Releases v2.9.14

2015/09/18 by Nalates Urriah

This is a version that is ready for TESTING… more than being for daily use. The big change is the RLV fix up. They are advising you to use this only on the Preview Grid until you are comfortable with it. That makes me a bit nervous. In testing they want you to be sure … Read more

Second Life: Nation of Remembrance – NoR. URGENT

2015/09/17 by Nalates Urriah

One of the first role play combat games I came across in Second Life™ was NoR. So, while I seldom play there now, I have a spot in my heart for NoR. The regions making up NoR are shutting down. People that have stuff in the regions have less than 24 hours to get it out. Drop dead time about 11AM SLT 9/18.

If you know people that play in NoR, let them know. Email them, call them, whatever and let them know the clock is running.

So, what happened? Well… this is a dark role play game. The people involved like drama and confrontation. So… the story I’ve heard sounds plausible. This announcement was posted 9/17 by Bizarre Obscure:
