Leisure Outfit

[Kyant]

I agree with Wildy, lets get back to always having to see your weapon. I wish for christmas I could have put on my santa costume and not have had to see my sword. I wish that if there was an event we could dress like an easter bunny... I wouldn't have to wear my bloody axe. I wish if I put on my swimsuit, I don't have to be careful not to poke myself with my arrows and die from their poison. I don't think this is too much to ask, at least before the next big event. At the moment, it can wait, but I think it should be implemented by the time there is another event with costumes... like haloween... assuming we will have a haloween event.

2 ways of doing this:

1) have a command similar to the command that lets us equip/unequip our headgear... and if we have our weapon unequipped and want to fight, just have it automatically switch to be equipped... so it is like we had our weapon hidden but had to bring it out for combat. After combat we have to hide it again (type the command again) or it will be shown. That last part I think is vital. It won't hurt people who want to be in "civilian" class as mentioned in the beginning of the thread, but at the same time it will prevent the unreality of having weapons randomly appearing everywhere. If have recently been fighting it makes sense to be able to see the weapon.

2) This idea seems to me to be easier to implement but I think it is not as good as the first idea. For certain pieces of BODY equipment (such as the swimsuit top, the santa coat, etc) they could make it so that when that body piece is equipped it will make your weapon invisible (unless you are in combat). Chances are you won't be fighting in something like that anyway, so there won't be TOO much of a problem with weapons just randomly appearing. Also, I say only the body piece should affect it because I see no point of the weapon disappearing if you put on some dream boots. If you are dressing up with the costume, the body is the most important piece, and would naturally be put on, so I think it is a good indicator of if the weapon should be shown or not. The bad part about this is that you can only hide your weapon with select equipment. I, for one, would like to be able to hide it regardless of what outfit I am wearing.

In general, I think this feature would be really nice and help the game a lot. I know the RP community will love it at least. So will a lot of the players who enjoy the aesthetics of the game.

I just hope the swimwear is underwear. I'd gladly replace my booty shorts and tank top for a bikini under all my sweaty leather.

Agreed. A one piece would be cute, and a little more tasteful on a lalafell than a bikini.

Or if it is a two piece suit, it should at least be something styled like this style suit. Lalafell just don't have the chest for a bikini.

Also I hope the guy suit is just shorts for the other races. The male top is a little strange on that roegadyn.

And regarding weapons, a /command to hide them would be cool, since it could apply to any situation. I could hide my weapon because I think that it looks weird that it clips through my velveteen hat.

I'll say it again. The less you worry about what people think of you, the happier you'll be. Responsibility? We live in a free society to be able to express ourselves, and exercising that right is in no way irresponsible. It's people like you who are why our censorship system is so screwed up. Show death, violence, gore, and drugs. But definitely censor anything that even remotely resembles sex. Really?

I have tattoos. Does that mean I'm any less intelligent than the person next to me? Hell no. Will some people think I'm less intelligent? Yes, they will. Do I care? Hell no. I've stretched my ears out and I can fit a pencil through the holes. Does that make me some kind of hooligan? Nope. I'm in nuclear medicine, and I care for my patients just like anyone else. I just like how they look. Does everyone like how they look? No, some people think it's disgusting, but that doesn't matter to me. The way I see it, if a person's gonna judge me based on the style I prefer, then they're obviously not worth my time. I'm not about to lose sleep over it.

Humans will be humans. We all succumb to some form of desire, whether it be in the form of a skimpy bikini or animal suits (lolfurries). Should it stop you from living your life how you want to live it? That's your choice. I, for one, have bigger things to worry about than what people think of me.

For the record, yes I am attracted to women wearing bikinis. I'm attracted to women wearing skirts, black-rimmed glasses, hippie headbands, hoodies, Chucks, etc. But I sure as hell treat them all with equal respect no matter what they wear. I'm sure I'm not the only one either.

And what exactly do you think causes death, violence, gore, and drugs, particularly the documented rise over them the past few decades. A breakdown in values has contributed both to the breakdown of restraint, and marriages. A breakdown of restraint, people doing what they want, will lead as much to violence and drugs as anything else, because they don't care, just like anyone else who doesn't care. The breakdown in marriages leads to broken families, which leads to broken children, which leads to people who are emotionally unstable, whether it's that child, or the child they end up having that they cannot raise as stable as they should because the parent is broken already.

And yes, this is related to what you would wear in this particular sense. It's not really a cause as much as a symptom.

And I don't care about your tatoos. I've seen some pretty cute ones. That has nothing to do with a breakdown of values.

But to be clear... I'm not asking SE to do anything about this bathing suit. I wish they didn't put it up in the first place yes, but simply "censoring" it would do no good either, on that I could agree with you. It serves no purpose to simply tell people what they can or can't do. People's hearts have to change, and they have to decide whats really important.

As for judging... judging implies that I look down on people for their choices. That isn't the same as pointing out the truth. On a day I'm feeling particularly snarky (yes I am human, with the same feelings as you) I might shake my head at the stupidity, but that still has more to do with frustration with people than with judgement.

What I do believe, is that this world can be fully free of pain, hurt, and loneliness for everyone, not just the select few tough enough to not let things get to them. I believe it can be full of light and love. But for that to happen, every person on earth would have to contribute. Doing what you want when you want won't get us there. Stiffling every bit of individuality won't either. The road runs down the middle.

One thing that throws me off chronological-wise is that in-game, it'll be summer/bikini time two to five years (will bikinis have durability or count as undergarments?) Where in real world, only a few weeks have passed.

A hide weapon toggle might be nice when not in active mode.

It is in incredibly poor taste to use this thread as a forum for preaching your moral ideology. You also seem to be misinformed, as violent crime rates have been in rapid decline since the early 1990s. In addition, while gender inequalities remain, women today are treated with much more respect than before this supposed "breakdown in morals" occurred.

[Atoli]

To make another attempt on getting back to topic:
I'm also in favour of a hide weapon option
Not just during the event(s), but all the time..it would be especially great for roleplayers^-^

[Soukyuu]

I'm all for hiding the weapon, no matter they implement it.
Making a civilian class would probably be the easiest for SE, knowing their horrible engine and it's limitations.

[Rinsui]

Or, even easier, they could give every class a weapon model that's too small to be seen.
