would be nice if there was some sort of order like in congress with each person who has something to say signs up and has so many minutes to make a point and so many minutes for rest to discuss

stefan.

I am going to post something serious for once because i want this game to live.

i am going to be candid with this post.  i realize that running this game is not your career and you're not making any decent money off of it. The community should be grateful to you, as i am, for keeping it alive this long.  The community that is still left with a few exceptions are people that have been playing since the early days and the main reason we stay is because of our friends/allies/nemeses that we have met along the way in the past 10 plus years.  As such, we feel like this game is ours as well even though we did not create it.  We would not have such active idea/bug threads with the same people if that was not the case.

I agree we should not turn this thread into a trolling one or regress about past decisions entirely but in order to approve anything in one's life, including my own, we all have to be able to accept constructive criticism.

Orbit, josh, arby were being honest with you.  They said the reasons why this game has declined.  I think holding an open live chat with the community rather than speaking to a remote few who dont necessarily represent all would be a better way to progress.

Your absence in the chatrooms naturally turns us into thinking that you are better than all of us who come back and pay for VIPS but constantly feel that we are unheard.  This obviously turns this game into one where players rebel/argue/harass the moderators who volunteer their time to run this.  Granted, there will be animosity in most games between players and overseers but this game is different.  I think of this game more like a very large fantasy football league since most of us know each other and are friends outside of the game unlike the monster games like WoW etc etc. 

I think even if you held a once a week open time with the community in a chat room that would quash a lot of criticism because we would actually believe the people who kept this game alive were heard.  Emails, posts are the worst way of communication because things can be read and understood the wrong way.  A live communication method is better to convey feelings.

I hope this message does not get edited or removed.  I mean this with respect and with my intention to help this game and more importantly the community live on.

i am skeptical as to the truth of this as well.  it seems odd he wouldnt be eligible for bail.  if he was going to be treated like a terrorist then he wouldnt get due process at all so talking about being formally charged and put on trial is odd.  i'm assuming it's his first offense and it's not a murder in the first charge so shouldnt really be ineligible for bail.  i doubt he has a substantial criminal record. i also doubt he is extremely well off to be considered a flight risk because if he was then this bs charge would have been thrown out immediately by a halfway decent attorney.

then again i dont practice criminal law and this is texas which is happy about executing its first female criminal so who knows.
