Zormite is one of the greatest kingdoms. If only it had more devoted members to help develop it...
A lot of Zormites probably think I dislike them. Well, I don't ^_^
I act the way I do to them through roleplay, but it's realistic enough they feel I have this real hatred for them... which isn't true, I love their Kingdom! I want it to be better, it's such a great idea. If Asuka didn't make me King I might have even joined it.
About the only Samurai I ever speak to is Dante these days, most of the others have left for other Kingdoms or something. Well, IceHawk is still there, which is good, but he usually is too busy with his RC to do much, which is okay I understand.
Pirates... again, good Kingdom idea, I feel that they are not strict enough with who they let join though. They seem to have the fewest RPers with a large 'non rping' ratio, but I know Ghost Pirate loves his Kingdom and is trying to make it better. And like Ghost said, they will hopefully be getting a Shark NPC and some other neat things soon ^_^
Then there is Celt, ran by both Lamer and Lugie. People like to call it "Dustari in snow" but they are trying to set it apart. Maybe some unique Norse-inspired hats would help, and some viking boats or something heh... dunno.
Kalaron is kinda dying before it even got it's own castle so... who knows if it will even be around much longer. It could have been good though.
And then there's Dustari, of which I'm in charge of. We have a town coming and an updated castle. The guard which everyone complains about (even though it is locked in my room 90% of the time these days) is getting some changes. First it will be a mage instead of a fighter. It won't shoot nukeshot, it will shoot fireball (accept it will do .5 damage not 1) It will have 4 hearts and be more deadly in battle, HOWEVER, once it is destroyed it can't be used again for a time period (yet to be determined). Some of our Knights have anarchy shields (not sure why...) which will be changed. Most just lots of little changes, apart from the new town.
So... Kingdoms aren't dead and we are trying to improve them. But adding more will just make it more difficult and more spread out. As it stands now... all of the talent is so spread out... it's hard to get things improved because people with talent are too busy creating NEW Kingdoms instead of helping with old ones.
The RPC, now ran by me and Vergil, will hopefully play a larger part in the "second age" of Kingdoms ^_^
