A few people still do use the amulets for in-character communication. Mostly concentrated around the Landing. There will be more using it during storyline events. There is 15-35% of GS players at any given time who do not use Lich and are not on any LNet channel.

I think Newsby is the only one who posts on Twitter during storyline events. But you're welcome to follow her!

I'd start using Twitter if KST was announced there. It would be a huge difference. It's hard to justify staying online every night past midnight just in case, but a Twitter message 10 to 15 before the event, during my shutting down/settling for the evening window, I could log back in.

Most of the heavy story participants, myself included, actually do use the amunet when it's right around KST. One quick way to figure out if KST is on the horizon (or currently happening) is just by typing LOOK UP while outside and seeing if the sky is stormy, then asking on the amunet if anything's going on.

Not a fan of Lnet. Don't use Lich. I always have an amulet on at all times on all chars.

With it now being global it is the perfect in-game in-character communication system to use over long distances.

That would be my preferred method. Second would be global or local game messaging.

I'm of the opinion that lnet is an outstanding resource for getting OOC information out there -- such as, 'hey, it looks like an event is going on,' or 'this just happened in this area of the game if your character is interested in this topic'. But I also vastly prefer that IC information be kept in the game itself, since there are so many different methods of communicating, even over the global ESP network and entire game distances.

So, yeah, all for using lnet to get players on board, but leave the IC communication to IG mechanics.
