Mod Post
Before I state our new rule, I have something I feel I need to say. My last entry was an attempt at democracy -- asking for opinions instead of blindly dictating. I don't see why it turned into a massive argument of people attacking myself, Ilene, and Dannielle. We don't need that, especially Dannielle, who is just a player here, much like yourselves. This was a needless bout of RPG drama that nobody needed to instigate. And for the record, I was not trying to instigate. I was trying to make the RPG better.
There was absolutely no reason to question my self-esteem, or to refer to Dannielle and Ilene as elitist and attack their writing. I am not what one would call a pacifist, but as my position as mod, I have kept myself from reacting to comments that I might normally have leapt upon. But that doesn't make these comments okay. They shouldn't have been here in the first place.
When I make a mod post, don't assume I'm there to attack you. If I have something to say to you, I'll send it to you in an e-mail.
Complaints about the log rule were raised, and I am going to inform you now that they won't be changing. This is a high-literacy RPG, and if you read the rules, you were well aware of that. It has been from day one.
How's My Driving will not be coming back for now. It seems to me that people are already far too happy to snipe at each other, and I don't need any more drama or hurt feelings.
The activity rule will be amended to: We require at least two entries a month, though you are welcome to make as many as you like. This RPG is geared toward interaction, especially the interaction made through comment threads. If you do not comment to others, you cannot expect people will comment on your entries in return.
That is all for now. I have absolutely nothing else to say. And if anyone starts to get snippy on this thread, their comments can and will be deleted. I have no energy or time for angry fights. If you have a problem, well, this is not your choice. I will listen to your opinions if you are not trying to attack pointlessly, but I cannot promise you that a change will be made.
