As for BsS people on Vent.
We've asked BsS to stay off of it for the next couple weeks until things have had a chance to calm down.
It Shouldn't be that big of a deal as you have you own Server & Vent now.


Actually Druid, we have two servers and two vents, as well as two websites (one just for downloads). It's a redundancy thing. However, there are some people that some of us like to communicate with and play with. Goosedown is one of those people. Since we don't want to chat about our vent in game, and they don't spend much time worrying about the forums because they like to play more than read this stuff, How would you suggest that we communicate with them?

HarryCarry has never been anything but polite on vent. Lipton is always polite. Rutuu felt like he walked into an ambush when he entered the lobby and first Cannuck (who was polite) and then others came up to tell him that he couldn't be there. Some others are young and headstrong, but they were NOT recruiting or otherwise breaking rules.

As someone who is analytical (it's in my old job title of Operating Systems Analyst), I can't help but wonder what the unstated point of all of this is. I suppose it could be a cooling off period, but for whom. Is tehre some excitement that I'm unaware of. I suppose it could be a protective measure, but why would one want to protect people from talking to their friends. Then, of course, there is the third possibility...

In case you weren't sure how things worked, here is how you communicate with somebody involved with MOB after you leave. They come to you. If they don't, then I'm sorry. If people you guys like didn't leave and stayed here, and now they don't come visit, well, I guess you should have thought about that. This isn't an open playground for anyone to come around to. In case anyone forgot, we have a PRIVATE vent password. Just because you know the password does not mean that you can do what ever you want.
In fact, the idea of changing the password was brought up by regs. Many were left feeling uncomfortable with what happened and weren't sure how to deal with vent, so they suggested we change the pass.
We decided that wasn't needed, but Druid thought it would be better to at least request BSS not to use it for a while

DAMN YOU DRUID!!! HOW DARE YOU MAKE A PERSONAL REQUEST OF PEOPLE!!!! YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO ASK SOMEBODY NICELY TO DO YOU A FAVOR!!!! YOU ARE CLEARLY AN ASS!!!

To: Guess Who

Coward - Why don't you print your name? Give us your vent and we'll go to your playground.

To Miked, all you have to do is post your password here for your vent and those who want to go visit will. I am friends with a lot of you who left, but all Druid did was ask politiely for a cooling down period. Why is it such a big deal. You all know how to PM someone, it's not like its takes more then a few seconds. Apparently, you would rather come in here and spam our forums. Just when everything b/n both seems to be running smoothy...someone has to throw heat on the fire. It always appears to be the same people hmmm.

I guess I just resolved the whole issue!
