This.
And.. well I will miss Joe, coming to private Skypechannels and calling other people Cockho***..
Guess that it's alright to get bored of frustrating crowd-sourced bedlam which is meant to be moderated by the people with their own rats in the attic. Should be hardly bearable at times.
Don't even know what is worse among those two groups. You have some ridiculous amount of tolerance, Joe.
' Wrote:The admin team for the most part act in the best interests of the community. Sometimes they get it wrong, sometimes they screw up... Sometimes the PM you send to an admin will get burried in the stack of 30 PMs and not get read. Forgive it. They're busy. They're also human.
That's no problem,(in my opinion) i think everyone understand your hard-working and everything you do for us.It's really no problem if you miss some PMs while doing while doing all those usefull things for us.
The admins are trying to improve this place, slowly, by bits and pieces. It can't happen overnight. When they try something out, or trial a change in the rules, just wait until you've found out how it works, play the game a bit, and then give your feedback on it. Don't complain straight off the bat because you think x or y unpleasant things might happen.
We all know admin team hard working.
Between players and admins, this place can grow, and become more than it currently is, but the players and admins need to support one another in achieving it, and engage in some meaningful and non hostile dialogue. After all, you're all after the same thing.
To the people who do like to yell the word "conspiracy", I have the following message.
You're an idiot of truly remarkable proportions.
Anyway... It's been a pleasure being an admin for the most part. One hell of a long ride, and one that's had ups downs and all the bits in between. I have other things I need to think about now, and new priorities.
That's 100% true.:)I agree with you about that.
I really estimate all your hard-working and everything that you've done so far.
It's hard to say there aren't so many admins needed,but that's 100% clear that admins will miss your hardworking Joe.
let's start from a statement that I'm a very very casual Disco-player. Nevertheless... everytime I wanted to get back to playing Freelancer again I knew that there is a place called Discovery, a very unique place where some smart, responsible and creative people are constantly hardworking on making Freelancer at it's best.
For this I salute You Joe. It was always a pleasure seeing You as Admin, and it will be always a pleasure seeing You as a player.
