A Lesson in AmuNet Usage

Not too long ago, there were gripes, complaints, and pleas to the gods to change the amulets. There were too many thoughts going through people's heads, and all that could be heard on them were bids for auctions .. cries for help went unnoticed. So, the gods gave us what we asked for .... They improved the amulets so they had three channels. Grey for chatting, Black for sales, and the white for requests for help. But guess what? No one used it.

Enough time has passed that I think that many people don't even know about the channels, and even fewer know how to use them. This is my contribution to making the amunet a better place to be. These are instructions as researched by Feywine for amunet usage.

To turn on the thoughts ....
- Rub the amulet = Grey net for chatting
- Pull = Black, i.e. the shopping channel (comes across as subdued)
- Turn = White, Healer-Rezzer net (comes across as muted) - Touch = Grey net, back to chatting
