I won't be playing this, as I share Mark Twain's feelings for Jane Austen.

"I haven't any right to criticise books, and I don't do it except when I hate them. I often want to criticise Jane Austen, but her books madden me so that I can't conceal my frenzy from the reader; and therefore I have to stop every time I begin. Everytime I read 'Pride and Prejudice' I want to dig her up and beat her over the skull with her own shin-bone." (- Letter to Joseph Twichell, 13 September 1898)

I won't be playing this, as I share Mark Twain's feelings for Jane Austen.

"Oh, I fear that my right to criticize books is lacking, and so I refrain from doing except when their existence upsets my sensibilities. I must confess the urge to criticize the works of Jane Austin rises in my breast, But I fear that her works arouse within me a such a storm of fearful passion that I fear that I could not but offend the worthy and virtuous reader; and therefore I must refrain ere I commence. Every time I peruse her masterwork 'Pride and Prejudice' the passion of digging at the cold clay of the earth to exhume her, and then the diabolical image of ravishing her thing white delicate temples with her Tibia overwhelms my delicate bosom."

Corrected.

Players who refuse to be civil to one another will be exiled to a special server called Botany Bay, named after a Regency Period penal colony.

Trolls, meanwhile, will be dealt with. “Conveniently, the UK was just starting to deport people to penal colonies starting in the Regency Period. We will have a server called Botany Bay, as that was the first actual penal colony. This server is for people who don’t want to play by our rules. Anyone can join it, but some people are limited to only playing there. It will be a much more free-for-all environment where our other servers will have much stricter adherence to the Regency rules of conduct.”

If I knew more Jane Austen, I could shit out a wicked "Sup, thou" joke.

Alas.

It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be a no life cat-ass powergamer.
