V5 Cartography of Eurth Directory Hub
Restricted Language Groups
Ignore the red text below, this has been temporarily disabled until the new system is up and ready!
Currently, 3 language/cultural groups have been restricted on Eurth to avoid over-representation, as we already have a lot of active members with those groups, and we would like to encourage new members to step outside their box. These linguistic and/or cultural groups are:
- Germanic Languages/Cultures (>25% of members)
- Romance Languages/Cultures (>23% of members)
- Celtic Languages/Cultures (4 active members and widespread minorities across other members.)
Four Core Concepts
These are the four concepts/guidelines' members are expected to follow when role-playing on Eurth. Although these concepts are not directly related to map applications, they should be taken into consideration when applying for the Eurth map. The four concepts are:
- Progression
- Realism
- Quality
- Teamwork
