[Suggestion] Runestones

Just a small sugestion. (Cosmetics only)
Could you please bring back the different colored runestones.
The change to get all kinds of glyphs from the same stone is great but now you only find the red version.

When I use lol after a sentence it indicates light-hearted mannerism. No, color-blindness or any disability of any sort is not funny but if the colors are not there to help someone find something that's when Keen Eye applies.
Believe me you'd know if I was laughing at something

You - here's an opinion on teh color, we only need Red!
Them - Some people Daltonism
You - lol don't care, get Keen Eye
Them - calling you out on laughing at people who are color blind.

Also, technically, red is not the easiest color to see. Green is. Green light travels further, it's why in the Army we used those red lenses on our lights."Your mistake is you begged for your life, not for mercy. I will show you there are many fates worse than death."

The reason Red is ideal is because 1) it matches the color of Ruby mats, 2) Thieves Troves are Blue, and 3) Yellow can be hard to see in places.
Indeed, and that is unfortunate.
Stop twisting my words. Keen Eye is a solution for those that cannot get by on the glow alone, and that is why I mentioned it.
Which I wasn't.
And you are ASSUMING that is how I used it when, in fact, it wasn't. Anyone that knows me knows I do not put lol at the end of a sentence to indicate I am laughing. It is my way of showing it is either light-hearted in nature or semi-serious.

"lol
It's original definition was "Laughing out loud" (also written occasionally as "Lots of Laughs"), used as a brief acronym to denote great amusement in chat conversations.
Now, it is overused to the point where nobody laughs out loud when they say it. In fact, they probably don't even give a *** about what you just wrote. More accurately, the acronym "lol" should be redefined as "Lack of laughter."
Depending on the chatter, its definition may vary. The list of its meanings includes, but is not limited to:
1) "I have nothing worthwhile to contribute to this conversation."
2) "I'm too lazy to read what you just wrote so I'm typing something useless in hopes that you'll think I'm still paying attention."
3) "Your statement lacks even the vaguest trace of humor but I'll pretend I'm amused."
4) "This is a pointless acronym I'm sticking in my sentence just because it's become so engraved into my mind that when chatting, I MUST use the meaningless sentence-filler 'lol.'"
See: lmao, lmfao, rofl, lawl, heh, haha, lolol, and 120 for similarities.
Statement: Sorry if I'm not too cheery, my best friend just died yesterday.
Worthless Reply: lol
Statement: The golden ratio is truely an intersting aspect of not only mathematics, but art as well.
Worthless Reply: lol
Statement: ... And then he says, "Your mom goes to college!"
Worthless Reply: lol
Statement: Hey, are you doing anything tonight? You could come over to my house and play some Unreal Tournie...
Worthless Reply: lol, ok"
No matter how you cut it, based on older or newer definitions of the slang, to responding to color blindness with a simple "lol" is plain old disrespectful. So either you don't pay attention enough to modern language to learn how to use it properly (language is meant to convey ideas, your use of language conveyed a different idea than the one you intended, in which case, language fail use the right wording)."Your mistake is you begged for your life, not for mercy. I will show you there are many fates worse than death."

Which is WHY I mentioned Keen Eyes. I wasn't poking fun, I wasn't laughing at someone else's misfortune, I was simply stating there are ways for even someone with color blindness to be able to spot Runestones easier. You and the other guy simply misunderstood the context of my use of lol which, as you said yourself, is used very broadly these days and never entirely indicative of laughing and thus not to be taken seriously. The difference between you and him though is you are persisting on trying to accuse me of something I did not in actuality do as per my explanation of the misunderstanding. Now if I had posted LOL like that THEN it would be fair to consider me laughing. So we can either drop this and you can accept it was a misunderstanding or you can persist at the accusation and I will proceed to ignore it. Good day, madam!
P.S. Your sentiments are not unappreciated. It's nice you care so much for the disabled you are willing to defend them so strongly even against a misunderstanding.Edited by UltimaJoe777 on September 17, 2016 10:38PMGuildmaster of Power With Numbers in PS4 NA Server's Aldmeri Dominion.

No matter how you cut it, based on older or newer definitions of the slang, to responding to color blindness with a simple "lol" is plain old disrespectful. So either you don't pay attention enough to modern language to learn how to use it properly (language is meant to convey ideas, your use of language conveyed a different idea than the one you intended, in which case, language fail use the right wording).
And you are either taking things too literally or expect everyone to just drop their cheer when someone mentions disability. I am disabled myself so I know what it's like to have a disability but you don't see me dragging my feet over it or being a Debbie Downer about it.
Good for you! Don't straight up ignore when somebody else's disability makes something less enjoyable for them then. Just because something works for you doesn't mean it works for everyone else. You essentially shrugged off what was a very valid point in an "eh, ain't my problem" manner. I don't know the nature of your disabillity, I'm glad you don't let it make you a "debbie downer" (apparently now meaning people who might want things adjusted a little bit so they can enjoy something as much as others), but I am sure you can with a little bit of creativity and imagination paint a picture of a similar situation and how frustrating that would be for you.
Which is WHY I mentioned Keen Eyes. I wasn't poking fun, I wasn't laughing at someone else's misfortune, I was simply stating there are ways for even someone with color blindness to be able to spot Runestones easier. You and the other guy simply misunderstood the context of my use of lol which, as you said yourself, is used very broadly these days and never entirely indicative of laughing and thus not to be taken seriously. The difference between you and him though is you are persisting on trying to accuse me of something I did not in actuality do as per my explanation of the misunderstanding. Now if I had posted LOL like that THEN it would be fair to consider me laughing. So we can either drop this and you can accept it was a misunderstanding or you can persist at the accusation and I will proceed to ignore it. Good day, sir!
P.S. Your sentiments are not unappreciated. It's nice you care so much for the disabled you are willing to defend them so strongly even against a misunderstanding.
Not a sir, but eh, I'm dropping this. That was a well constructed response and I can't argue with this. Sorry for the misunderstanding. I have to commend you on your re-purposing my quote from urban dictionary to serve your argument.

not if you have daltonism
Then you can invest in Keen Eye lol
you think colour blindness is funny?
When I use lol after a sentence it indicates light-hearted mannerism. No, color-blindness or any disability of any sort is not funny but if the colors are not there to help someone find something that's when Keen Eye applies.
Believe me you'd know if I was laughing at something
Can you back pedal harder?
Okay let's sum it up then.
You - here's an opinion on teh color, we only need Red!
Them - Some people Daltonism
You - lol don't care, get Keen Eye
Them - calling you out on laughing at people who are color blind.
You - NO I WASN'T! I SWEAR! Even though lol = laugh out loud I will say I wasn't laughing! (don't tell me mum!)
The reason Red is ideal is because 1) it matches the color of Ruby mats, 2) Thieves Troves are Blue, and 3) Yellow can be hard to see in places.
Indeed, and that is unfortunate.
Stop twisting my words. Keen Eye is a solution for those that cannot get by on the glow alone, and that is why I mentioned it.
Which I wasn't.
And you are ASSUMING that is how I used it when, in fact, it wasn't. Anyone that knows me knows I do not put lol at the end of a sentence to indicate I am laughing. It is my way of showing it is either light-hearted in nature or semi-serious.
So, are you done being a jerk or shall we continue this debacle?
"lol
It's original definition was "Laughing out loud" (also written occasionally as "Lots of Laughs"), used as a brief acronym to denote great amusement in chat conversations.
Now, it is overused to the point where nobody laughs out loud when they say it. In fact, they probably don't even give a *** about what you just wrote. More accurately, the acronym "lol" should be redefined as "Lack of laughter."
Depending on the chatter, its definition may vary. The list of its meanings includes, but is not limited to:
1) "I have nothing worthwhile to contribute to this conversation."
2) "I'm too lazy to read what you just wrote so I'm typing something useless in hopes that you'll think I'm still paying attention."
3) "Your statement lacks even the vaguest trace of humor but I'll pretend I'm amused."
4) "This is a pointless acronym I'm sticking in my sentence just because it's become so engraved into my mind that when chatting, I MUST use the meaningless sentence-filler 'lol.'"

Perhaps that would be something to consider before posting.
As for colorblind issues. I do not think red blue or yellow matters much as it differs what colors you have problems with. And if that was your main issue a colorblind mode would be a great suggestion to post about.
A valid point was made about the Troves using a blue glow now. I think though because of the related "sound" you still could differentiate between them easy enough.
Anyway It was just a tiny idea. I have been thinking about it when riding around at night time. I did not expect much talk about it. Just had to look when it had gotten 26 posts. Temporary increased optimism for a game "forum" community. That has been rectified.0 -
