The Common Room

Postby Leila on March 17th, 2013, 4:05 am

Had an interesting discussion in chat about Zeltiva that resulted in a few more questions.

Since the university uses a lot of ink and paper for its purposes, does Zeltiva produce its own ink and paper? If so, where are they produced? Is there businesses for them, and how are they produced?

And if not, do they import them? If so, from who? And how do they produce them? And is the price large enough that a market for local production is available?

I know it's a lot, but I thought it quite interesting.
I'm accepting threads only for Summer 513 AV or Flashbacks with Leila. If you'd like to thread, PM me with a date and a basic idea of what you'd like to do! Thanks!

Good question. I'd have to do some research on ink production. If you wanted to add to Zeltiva you could throw together a fun location based around that, I'm sure. :) We might have print makers as well :)

Fun job for carvers/metal workers, making books. Again don't know much about printing books before printing presses were made.

I posted this to fellow staff, but I think it's relevant to all you guys too:

I'm doing my best but Uni is really killing me atm. I'm in my final semester, so as you can imagine there are lots of deadlines and expectations, and I really don't want to mess up, in between that I've been searching for internships, attending conferences and such like, as well as doing extra shifts at my job to cover colleague's holiday, so I'm really not getting enough time to post and grade at the moment. Those who I chat to will note I haven't been on AIM either. At the moment I just can't afford time for the distraction. I have a few weeks off as of next week so I am hoping to catch up on things at the start of next week. If you need something urgently, never hesitate to PM me as I always check and reply to them. Thanks for your understanding guys!

Let us know if we can help, Paragon. I'm always amazed, as a barely-bachelors-graduate-online, at you anyway :). Keep pushing, be the great you are. Miz can be patient.

Hello fellow RPers!

I have finally got around to writing the Gordios Article. If anyone can find time to read and review it, I would be grateful. :)

Thanks,

Ray
