    b:sweat This is far from the truth Hope -.-

    Spoons we all know was a GREAT GM, but to start this, not fair.

    Rose, I look up to you.
    But at times, I have to disagree.

    What is fair then?
    Is it fair to take away the things we have grown used to without warning?
    Is it fair to ban people for voicing out their opinions?

    Is it honestly fair?

    I don't know anymore.

    Things like this happen in all tings and you cannot always expect an answer. Spoon's just set the bar VERY high for any other GM.

    You will not get an answer on the Spoon's thing...better to let things be.

    Trust me on this...

    Mhmm we'll never know.



    Then what is true Frankie??

    We never got a warning Spoons was leaving.
    He didn't even say good bye.
    Nobody has told us a thing of what happened to Spoons.

    I'm honestly sick of people who cover up lies after lies.

    Frankie, you're great and all.
    Seriously, I wouldn't take your job ever.

    But honestly, don't we deserve the truth at times like these too?
    how the heck do you even know what could've gone on? what if he quit in a mad rage over something that didnt go his way? what if he was whisked away by another company and he took off in a disgraceful manner (you know some of our GMs came staight from other games, orinj is a good example of one -_-; xarfox too, cept his game died first lol)

    quite frankly, what happened is none of the players business regardless of how honorably or dishonorably discharged.

    rather than be rude to frankie for no stupid reason, quit jumpin down his throat. i hated our previous CM, hate him like a cleric hates bosses that cancel BB (to prevent from saying extremely bad words here.) im glad he's gone, its been 9 months get the hell over it. leave frankie alone, s/he is a plenty good CM.

    back on topic...

    welcome to the gauntlet ladies and gents, or whatever gender you may be. may your welcome be err welcoming lol. and welcome to the family.

    This is also true.

    So far, the first few official actions (and I assume they were made by our moderators and not by Frankie) have been less then impressive, and I still have major concerns.

    But there's not been anything outrageous yet. Maybe we will get lucky.

    maybe its not right, but its a lesson

    This is why the community is so volatile these days because all we know is lies, if we were told the truth on many of the things we wouldn't have a reason to bring things up later or make stuff up

    On topic:

    To cover up one lie means you have to lie again, and to cover up that lie you'll need an even bigger lie until you have finally convinced yourself that the lies you tell everyone else are the truth. At that point you will become PWE.

    I'm not saying we should bring Spoons back as a GM and kick Frankie at all.
    I'm not saying that at all.

    I'm just saying that we should have a right to know things.

    The reason to know things is why its in the United States Constitution.
    Its so we're not idiots and don't know whats going on.
    Thats why there is such thing as free speech and all.

    I just don't get why we're not being told anything anymore.
    Is it that hard to tell us a week before something happens?

    I remember when spoons first took over, he locked some stuff in the harshlands forums that people didn't feel needed to be locked. We all gave him **** for it, but he eventually won us over.


    FrankieRaye's had more than enough time to prove himself anything other than a detriment to this community, and he's failed.

    Anywho - bookmark to the forums deleted, as it's clear the company doesn't care about them any more.

    I'll likely keep playing PWI till PWE kills the game, but there's no reason to make these forums a regular stop anymore. Fire the only good mod you had, and hire 2 people who don't play and one of the biggest laughingstocks of the forum . . . I'm glad I was ready to refuse the offer even before Frankie realized I wasn't a PWE kiss-up.

    I'm going to miss your presence on here Ted.

    That's two down.

    I'm really hoping it's not going to be a hat trick.

    -edit-

    Frankie, you never did answer my question several pages back.

    Reds has been saying much the same thing I have. In fact, several people have. Why is it, out of all these people, you saw fit to only tell me to be quiet, and why is it out of all these people it was only I was told that "if I didn't have anything nice to say I shouldn't say anything at all"?

    I'd appreciate an answer at this point, and I'm sure the curious people would, too.

    No offense here frankie, you do an excellent job, but I have to agree.
    You haven't managed to win people over like some of the previous GM's, and that is a fact.

    I think the community as a whole would appreciate it if you would take into consideration the player's ideas and points of views before you make major edits to the game.

    But my opinion of kanto was also somewhat ruined when I read the TW thread

    Joining the fray a little late, but oh well:

    Airyll, I just want to give a big +111111111 to your post earlier in which you stated that you wouldn't become a mod due to past flames/heated debates/outspokenness. Not that I'm totally against you or anything-I just thought it admirable for you to recognise that that is not the qualities one looks for in a mod.

    And that's what I think is confusing people here...lots of posts saying Hamsta for mod etc. etc, when his only redeeming quality (in terms of mod-ness) is that we know he's active due to post count. This is why I disapprove of some of our most well known forumgoers becoming mods; I think it's usually done for all the wrong reasons. Having a reputation already is nice and all, but as others have said, Ary, Andracil, Hawk, all our other older mods had no reputations prior to their appointments. I disapproved of Konari becoming mod because I felt it was done merely because of his supposed "activity"...yet he was essentially a spammer. And look what happened- he didn't do much once he actually got the position, and then vanished off the face of the earth.

    We need all the outspoken voices already here to keep doing what they do best: give their detailed feedback and opinions and humour to threads, things that mods can't really do as much.

    That being said, it's not a terrible thing to have unknowns as long as they quickly prove themselves. I've been in the shadows for a terribly long time (look at my post count and join date, pretty low compared to some), but I've still been around for most of the major events on the forum and know what's going on. So I will suspend judgment on the new ones because this could be the case for them too. But they should act ASAP; I feel like the community is very quick to get outraged these days...

    Good luck.

    Well, thats an answer.
    Don't see why it was that hard to say it but yeah.

    Frankie, I obviously don't know how you feel.
    You being the CM should know what works or not.
    I appreciate you doing all this for us.

    Right now, the new mods will be actively at work trying to find things to do. This is going to lead to immediate inconsistency and ****-mod-isms. After all, they want to look like they're doing something, it's going to take them a while to be able to make snap judgements on what should and shouldn't stay. So let them sink in for a week or so before we can really start seeing how they'll act. Right now, they have the new job feeling of 'having to impress' and it's surely not going to win anyone.

    They really need to just step back and watch... and only get involved if things are blatantly out of hand... Right now they're still enamoured with the enhanced 'thread tools' tab.

    You do not have the right to know if it does breach the privacy of another and in this case it would most definitely do so.

    Oh Michael, this has been made quite obvious.

    I think that was just used as an example. If anybody was honestly foolish enough to think they had the real right of free speech here, I would point them in the direction of several banned, or possibly going-to-be-banned members.
