The Lumen - Feedback+FAQ

The forum graphics are quite bad on already dark background, unless you want to be extra edgy and dark on purpose.

edit: The point is that I feel like this is a parody of edginess.

Well, from reading that Faction Info, you can deduce they are some strange, unknown, edgy, scary, never heard or seen before, deadly as a the nomads cargo hunters. Or, hunting for some specific cargo. At least that's what I got from reading all that.

@Lythrilux If you are much interested what is this - Then find out yourself. As you might already notice, we actually don't have the biography. The Investigation chapters do not disclose what are we and won't.

Look at it this way: if you're trying to recruit me, you're giving me no information about who you are or what you do. How can you capture my interested in the first place, if there's not really a faction attached to the lore?

Have you perhaps considered that they don't want to recruit you?

It was fairly obvious I was making a hypothetical for the sake of helping them with their faction concept.

The forum graphics are too bad for even a parody of edginess. 2/10

For the faction logo (the 90 degrees turned tag, I get it) should had used the same bright red as the signature, that would had worked better I think.

The amount of [indent] tags you are using is causing some weird stuff to my laptop screen. Consider using [pi amount=12]

@Lythrilux we do not attract people for making them into the faction by just reading the page, we attract with the atmosphere and keeps the veil of secrecy for the interest. As we said, if you want to know what's that, you'll have to find it out yourself.

@Sol it's bad parody because it's not parody at all? The person who's in charge for the graphics have no idea what's "edginess". Google doesn't really help much.

@Laz the person who was in charge for coding actually more addapted to the old forums. Thank you.

@mayu20 some graphics are barely readable, but it actually what we've looked for.

edit: @Lucas, @Shelco and @"Cyber Byte" thank you for your feedback.

Edginess is when you are being dark, mysterious and serious too much. Check Mayu's post.

Definition:
Intentional attempt at appearing dark, violent and mysterious, but more often than not, being quite the contrary.

Examples of being edgy:
?: "You do not know that I am here."
?: "..."
?: "I am hunted in three galaxies."
?: "Feel free to kill me... many tried, everyone fallen."
?: "I have like 10 reasons why I shouldn't listen to you writen in my notepad, but you're not worthy of either of them."
?: "Spare me the sob story, I'll shoot you in 2 minutes."
?: "Sugertits, no man is gonna listen to your depressing story. That's why you're all alone and soon to be a cat lady."
?: "I've only known pain my entire life, and my whole existence is a hellscape. I wish nothing but suffering on all of mankind, for their sins against me."
?: **stands mysteriously as his fedora is blown off by a gust of wind, a prop katana affixed to his back**
?: "Just try me. It might be the last thing you do."

@Sol Now that's much clear. So it's a faction which is much approched with the contect to us? Or just kind of RP Chyrisalis, Backo and Golanski had to play?

Anyway, something approched but still not the same, really bad parody - is not parody anymore. And yeah, thank you for the feedback.

I just tried to define what being 'edgy' means.

Credits are there because those gentlemen contributed with their edgy lines.
