[WIP] Krag's Pub.

[duckofthemoon]

Yeah! Let's discourage Krag! That'll get his mods out!

Krag, do whatever, you have some special privileges, at least from my POV.

[Bobhendly]

I Loved Krags PErsona.. It Didn't sway off subject, and it made him Special... And In fact It Somehow made his concepts more interesting. I would love to see a deployable bar! And a Happy Krag.. The Federation of Foreign Exchange KErbals Requests that you continue you career as a Chairman In... Uh.. Whichever Name you Picked for your company

(Stay Gold, Cave Johnson, stay Gold.)

(-.(-._-.)_-.) \()/ - GARGLEBLASTER!

I will now proceed to beat you unconscious.

[Kragrathea]

What kinds of "special features" did you have in mind?

Interestingly you are the first to ask. And since it is getting close to closing time. I will whisper in your ear...

The plan was to have the pub go out of biz about the time the factory came back on line. But the building (its already modeled, that was a rendered 'sketch') was to act as the basis for the new plugin I was working on. A spacecraft dealership. A plugin for an immersive in-game way of sharing spacecraft files. You park a ship somewhere near the "dealership" and "Sell" (i.e. publish to a common server) and then other users visiting the ingame location of the dealership can see and "buy" it (download seamlessly in game).

That idea is now free and a bargain at half the price.

Hah! I like it.

Holla if you need assistance. I have servers as well, should you need hosting, fellow creator.

[th3shameless]

we need more people like mr.kragathea on this forum, personality and skill together are a rare mix

[LaydeeDem]

Krag you're breaking the un-written rules! Now work on your mod more!

/s

That aside, have you made any breakthroughs with your planets?

[Kragrathea]

No further breakthroughs are expected. I am winding down. The 1-2 combination of 0.21 and official opposition to the story stuff has pretty much scuttled my interest in the project. I have emailed AstronutKhillips to ask what he wants me to do with it. I'll post any news here.

Thanks to everyone who supported the project. Sorry I couldn't deliver. : (

[sumghai]

The inability to role play on the forums shouldn't be any reason to quit modding.

When one joins a community, one needs to play by the rules (even if they seem ridiculous at first). If the KSP forums required all those applying for membership to submit a video of ourselves tap dancing to some obscure musical track, then so be it - if one cannot meet the requirement then one simply cannot join in the first place - it's rather churlish to join first, repeatedly bend rules (whether official or unspoken) and then expect leniency when staff intervene.

If you are ditching the project Krag, I am more than capable of finishing it for you.

I ditched mine originally because I seen AstronutKhillips take it up.

Edit:

In all reality though, I would prefer if you completed your project.

Your personality is top-notch and you shouldn't be discouraged by discouraging posts.

The mods are just trolling you (they have their reasons), people do that lol.

Either way, I support your decision and hope you'll continue giving your awesomeness to the community whether it be through mods or simply good conversational role play.

If anyone could pull it off other than Krag it would be you Razchek.

[Kragrathea]

I am not necessarily quitting moding. I might still pursue the dealership idea (although "Ingame Craft File Sharing Plugin" sounds a lot less interesting than "Krags Used SpaceCraft Emporium!!!!").

I am giving up on the planets thing because it has turned to drudgery. It was fun doing the rp and making planets. But after 0.21 it has gone back to square one. Last weekend (which was beautiful btw) I spent 12hrs working on it. I loaded the game 87 times (i keep the logs) and I spent 42 minutes "InFlight". You know how much of that was "fun". None. The only bit that was enjoyable was working on the Krag status updates and the continuing story line that I had in mind (it was going to be a doozy!).

Now I am just going to enjoy the rest of the summer and we will see what happens after...

Honestly I don't see why you would prefer this bitch over lovable Krag, but whatever.

Shipmate, one can't know about unspoken rules; it's rather churlish to expect an ever-growing community to be cognizant of events that happened in the pre-history (i.e. pre-April) of the forum. Most people's decision to join the KSP forums, I suspect, rests most on a love for Kerbal Space Program. Seems silly to make any other criterion paramount. I certainly did not delve into forum rules arcana nor did I cast the bones to divine moderator discontent prior to joining.

It was a good run, Krag. I wish you the best and I'm raising a toast to your efforts this evening. Cheers!

The dealership sounds great! Whenever Kimberly shows up, I feel like the wizard has stepped out from behind the curtain:)

Yes, I am in fact churlish. I think the record will prove that. But in this case I got 70 some posts in before someone pointed out the "unwritten rule" that it was "highly discouraged". So Pfffffft!!

Lmao whether it be b*tch Krag or RP Krag. You're welcome in these forums by the majority community.

I'd like to see the dealership plugin with the "Krag's Secondhand SpaceCraft Emporium!!!!" title for sure!

It's very feasible and not as daunting to implement as the celestial bodies mod is.

*shrug* I encourage you to keep up with the story line you had in mind.

As long as the majority of the community isn't upset - you won't have a problem.

... So Pfffffft!!

There we go, awesome haha.

[sumghai]

And so you resort to such petty personal attacks such as calling me (who happens to be male) a bitch?

[Mr Shifty]

And so you resort to such petty personal attacks such as calling me (who happens to be male) a bitch?

Ah, hilariously you have misunderstood. She was referring to her non-RP persona, and not to you.

[stupid_chris]

The mods are just trolling you (they have their reasons), people do that lol.

No Razchek, we are not trolling. We had serious issues in the past with roleplaying, that's why we don't like it much.

I am not necessarily quitting moding. I might still pursue the dealership idea (although "Ingame Craft File Sharing Plugin" sounds a lot less interesting than "Krags Used SpaceCraft Emporium!!!!").

Krag, nothing stops you from putting it out under that name! Just have fun! Seriously, nothing prevents you from hosting your download offsite and having your whole story there if you want to, no one will stop you

[sumghai]

Ah, hilariously you have misunderstood. She was referring to her non-RP persona, and not to you.

Due to the ambiguity, selective quoting of my responses and the subsquent "Pfft" comment, it's evident that the insult was directed at me.

[sirkut]

And this my dear friends is why we can't have nice things.

[OdinYggd]

The mods are just trolling you (they have their reasons), people do that lol.

No, we are in fact quite serious about this.

In fact here's what is left of the KSP Roleplay site: http://play.kerbalroleplay.com/

The roleplaying context in this thread is off topic relative to the thread's intention of developing a game mod. Although there's no reason why a game mod can't have a story behind it, writing such a story as a roleplay should be done on a site better suited to that kind of creative work as it has proven to cause problems here.

Although more recent postings are giving the impression that the project has been cancelled, in which case it is best if this thread be simply let rest.

[shadowsutekh]

I agree with chris, there's nothing wrong with Kragrathea's idea to produce an addon under the name of "Krags Used SpaceCraft Emporium!!!!" or something. I happen to think that is both catchy and intriguing.

[Mr Shifty]

No, we are in fact quite serious about this.

Dagnabbit Odin. If it's so, then make it policy. I'd bet the community here has doubled or tripled at least since April. Am I wrong? There ain't no tribal knowledge. Tribe's a city now, and we can't steer away from stuff what we don't know to steer clear of. It's disconcerting to have a mod drop from the sky after a couple weeks and 100 posts to let us know that our activity is frowned on round these parts.

[Kragrathea]

Well Intentioned Mr Shifty, But sumghai either misunderstood or is a troll. And the rp thing is pretty much a done deal. They can't very well have a Kragrethea exception.

Either way we don't want that to be the final word in a thread that is sure to be locked at any second.

So let me add that I am thinking of doing a Kragrethea Retrospective thread. Coming soon. Details to follow. After I get a bloody tan that is.

MODs maybe leave this open as long as it stays civil?

Everyone else. Stay civil eh?
