Alley wasn't alone in that. you realise someone was charged to take the noms in a new direction and the only way to do that was to appeal to the interest of those playing the new k'hara and those interested in seeing changes. over 6 factions had input and we went with it. Since ive been back people have been asking me will we do this again. No let me rephrase.. begging.

perhaps you remember your previous suicide note where in you dissolved your previous group after years of looming and attempting to create change by shooting down and suffocating ideas. THAT day when we picked up and went into our try it and lets see what sticks phase I made the NEW group abide strictly to a charter that each member brings new lore and new ideas to the whole. NOT JUST straight jacketed players who fill the numbers like the keepers got to be and how the Khara are getting now!
Dont you DARE talk about that storyline! you knew nothing about it! you werent THERE!
you came back and you alienated friends who were in and around you for YEARS! just to lockdown the lore to something "acceptable" in your eyes? are you serious? you do know this place is more then just your enjoyment right? that any legacies your seeing to preserve here will fizzle to DUST the moment cannon stops paying the damn bill? Who does this in a GAME? who takes this stuff Too seriously? (its on topic spazzy i swear to god) No ill correct myself legacies will die the moment we all forget them and the next infatuation comes along. which is shorter or longer depending who and what you are.
Don't think for a minute you OWN everything to do with nomads. its the servers material and the communities by right. Infact im going to leave that statement there Before you bring up anything to do with your involvement with developing the old nomad lore. YOU laid to rest all that past effort in the hope of something different and new would flourish and declared it in that suicide note above. Dont forget for a MOMENT you realised how things were run could Not persist further
and for whatever reason you think that's changed now? Is a delusion. What you did was great long ago but you squeezing and bullying the efforts we started after you left on your say so?
Its sickening.. you need to look in a damn mirror and ask yourself what changed between letting the past go yuri and corpse in a corner of the khara chat yuri today.
You think thats was a mistake? you think people becoming interested in new developments and bringing factions into strange bedfellows in an unprecedented situation that grabbed the interest of old players and new ones alike a MISTAKE?
As for the thread.
Spazzy. Too much is when we take it too seriously and make everyone in the damned room uncomfortable. like i just did here. Sure it can be personal sure it can be messy but this is a game.
we're "playing" here. any nasty tyrannical or bullying tactics personally that squelch others in their exploration of fun here should be SHOT and BURIED.
If someone is expecting Deep character development they only need to find the right crowd here. otherwise they need to realise this game is so old. and out of context for that.
that your going to get people who won't and cannot take it seriously. and thats not bad. thats just where people are right now.
However a venue such as this is more or less player driven its so diverse that anyone should be able to fit into the right group. Or do their best to create their own with great patience and perseverance.
So take a sip of whats flowing out the tap here expecting tasters choice will be shocked and appalled.
if they were paying attention. and applied a little observation and wisdom they would know not to drink from the bottom of the stream.
