EM Asiantam: not only classic houses?
EM Asiantam: so you are not restricting it to classic house right?
Mesanna: are you saying you can place these tiles in customized houses also?
EM Asiantam: not tiles
EM Asiantam: doors
EM Asiantam: metal doors and stone doors
Mesanna: same thing
Mesanna: if you can put them in a customized house
Mesanna: with just the doors
Mesanna: then thats a bug
Mesanna: due to an exploit
Mesanna: or issues it causes
EM Asiantam: so she can place a door
EM Asiantam: because those doors don't consume lockdown
EM Asiantam: lockdown numbers
EM Asiantam: so
Mesanna: thats not the reason
EM Asiantam: she is afraid
Mesanna: people can take them
Mesanna: its a bug
Mesanna: do not put them in those locations
EM Asiantam: yes she knows
Mesanna: if you can we need to fix it
EM Asiantam: she is afraid if you delete them suddenly
EM Asiantam: because
EM Asiantam: now
EM Asiantam: many players have already placed them in their houses
Mesanna: we are not going to delete them
Mesanna: but she needs to move it
EM Asiantam: does it effect house secure numbers?
Mesanna: if its locked down it should
Mesanna: once its fixed no one will be able to place those in those locations
EM Asiantam: but you wont delete them so players wont lost them, right?
Mesanna: we will not delete them no
Mesanna: players can if they are open
Mesanna: because when opened its no longer in the house
Mesanna: thank you
EM Asiantam: if possible in the future can you show each of them are they for classic house or not
EM Asiantam: thank you
Mesanna: Greetings
EM Asiantam: now we can place item in the castle yard
EM Asiantam: how about for fort?
Mesanna: fort?
Mesanna: you mean the keep?
EM Asiantam: yes
Mesanna: you do not have access to the keep areas
Mesanna: we would have to alter the keep to do that
Mesanna: and that is not high on our list to do
Mesanna: thank you
Mesanna: Greetings
EM Asiantam: I have a castle
EM Asiantam: but we can add only one trash barrel
EM Asiantam: can you change this?
Mesanna: well you can use the plants
Mesanna: are you just wanting to move it?
Mesanna: or are you asling for one an each level?
Mesanna: asking
EM Asiantam: he is saying that plant is too big
EM Asiantam: and poke the floor
EM Asiantam: and use 4 tiles
EM Asiantam: I want it smaller
EM Asiantam: consume 1 tile only
EM Asiantam: would be the best
Mesanna: so he can move the barrel
Mesanna: at any time by axing it

EM Asiantam: yes
Mesanna: and replacing it
EM Asiantam: right
Mesanna: I guess I am not seeing the issue

EM Asiantam: if the trash barrels is on the north corner
Mesanna: axe it
EM Asiantam: and if he wish to have it in south corner
Mesanna: and put it beside you
Mesanna: then axe it again
Mesanna: simple
EM Asiantam: he need to move to north once
Mesanna: there is no limitations to the number of times you can place it
Mesanna: we do not plan on adding new trash barrels at this time
EM Asiantam: ok

Player: If a talisman reads protection from orc 50 % will
Player: it protect only against the basic orc or all creatures vulnerable to an orc slayer property?
Player: cant find an explanation for it
Kyronix: I am not 100% sure, but I think it's against all types of orcs
Kyronix: We would have to investigate further to know for sure

Player: ty vm

Mesanna: thats the only change made
EM Asiantam: sometime we cant identify the color difference
Mesanna: nothing except for the way it hues

Mesanna: true
Mesanna: we will talk about it
Player: asking for loot to be like jewelry
Mesanna: ahh
Player: arings and bracelet are 500
Mesanna: originally we did it to save the crafters
