    I'm not in UK. I'm kinda jealous for their weather right now. Take a look at Lithuania's weather forecast. Some records were made this year lol. :D

    As much as I'll hate myself for saying this, choose the Nao server; it is in ascendancy, whilst Alexina is in decline. Choose a human, as it will allow you to have an additional free elf and giant character. If you are brand new to the game but are familiar with this genre, choose close combat until you gain more familiarity with the game. You can change your talents as often as you like so don't feel like you're bound to it forever. The downside of close combat is it significantly increases your combat power rating; this makes further training of many skills significantly more difficult, however you can offset this by visiting Duncan, whom can lower all your skill rankings back to F whilst also returning your AP back to you. This means nothing to you at the moment but you'll understand soon enough. Do NOT master skills until after you have raised them all to rank 1, as this will mitigate any downside to often visiting Duncan.

    A few of my pets are named using Lithuanian words (according to Google translate), but I forget which. Lithuania's the southern most one right or is the one in the middle?

    Thanks for the suggestions! I think the servers should have been merged by now, right? Will my stuff be kept the same wherever server I choose?

    I'm not sure what you mean. Two weeks ago there were 4 servers. The lowest three in population were merged together, after being separate entities since, I think 2009? My main character resides in the land of ghosts and winds, otherwise known as Alexina, so I can't answer that, since I was not directly effected by the merge.

    Spanish, the forum doesn't give me an option to list the first language. I did get the inspirational vibe but I got totally lost on the "mot" haha.

    FYI, there is this forum right at the very bottom of the main page. As for what I said:
    - for the first part;
    Would that it was so, brother;
    I direct you to the Wikipedia article on the Subjunctive Mood, and
    - for the last part;
    so mote it be.
    I direct you to the Wikipedia article on the Freemason equivalent to 'Amen', now being used in modern Pagan ritual practices.

    Mostly English, to be sure, but I pointed that out as a place for other languages to be used at those folks discretion.

    I know, as you said earlier, but the subjunctive is quite rarely used, by native English speakers these days, so I included the link, to its description, for the benefit of other forum users.

    I was trying to make the reply sound like an old fashioned form of English, which is why I included the phrase as well.

    Mabination was one of the best forums we had and now it is lost. There is no freedom of speech here.

    Freedom of speech does not exist in this world. Otherwise, anarchy will reign.
