I've retooled character creation to be a more logical drilldown. You'll
now begin by selecting your CLASS, and from there go on to pick a race and
gender. I've also attempted to make it easier to use. For those of you
who have gotten characters intp the Halls of Exalted, you'll notice that
vampire is available to play upon verifying your account. If you are
looking for ninjas, pick shadow.

so one of the things which is different about this is, when you get to race selection, it will only show you races that you can pick. So if you are looking to pick a specific RACE, you will need to do your homework a little bit and see what classes can roll it. Or just pick a warrior first and use "back" once you see what classes that race can pick.

Also another thing I want to mention is that we'll still do level 30 vampire converts where it makes sense to do so. Its more of us trying to get our annoying fat judgemental imm asses of the way and let our elite players benefit from the trust and respect that they have obviously already earned - from everybody.

Seems like a better method. Certainly cool that Exalted can get in to vampire right away, maybe be more of them around now. A good way to see if people will put more time in characters, in a more meaningful way, to try and get the special access to Vampires.

The specific criteria that needs to happen to pick vamps in creation is some Immortal has to honor you with elite status at some point in time. I feel I've reasonably assumed that halls of exalted would have that, but if you were granted honor with elite status on any past character that you verified, it should be enough to pick vamps. If you don't have it, you need help from an Imm with database access to create a shell record, manually, and verify it and then repute it (olyn, vevier).

Please submit requests as bugs which includes both the character in HotE, and your forum account. It's easiest if the character who was nominated was already verified (so this is a very good reason why to do it.)

That is a crowdsourced opinion, Ozaru. No ass kissing involved, just simply how your character looked in the colllective mind of a reasonably intelligent audience. The Imms only moderate it.

I've noticed this a while back, but never asked, what does it mean when I click on my profile name and I see this 'You have been recognised by the Immortals for your exceptional play!' besides the obvious misspelling of it, I'm kind of unsure. recognized, not recognised...

That is a "reputable" status which I think gives you a logboard badge.

If you want to be reputable it's as simple as 1, 2, 3:

1. Make an effort to rp, and stay IC even when you have the urge to go off on someone when you die.
2. Don't rage delete
3. Don't make another goddamn ranger

I could be wrong, but I don't think reputable will give you access to vampires. You'll need elite status.

So is there a difference between having a character hit the halls of exalted VS, being considered elite?

Reading from Dava's post it seems:

If you have been granted elite status on a past character, you're good to go to create a vampire.

If you have characters that made it into the HoTE and never had the elite status, if you can prove that it's your character, you'll be granted elite status.

Not that simple.
