@KarmaBum WHAT WAS THE RIGHT ANSWER?

It’s weird but probably not malicious. I’d baffle, as I do at many policies, in a ‘where did the need for this arise’ kind of way.

@dvoraen I sell it on Temu, run by my cat, Temu.

@TNP My condolences. It’s so hard to lose your furry buddies, especially to something like cancer.

@Gashlycrumb I mean when people make it a policy not to post. That’s it. It’s not complicated.

People can and do rant in private, or in other semi-public forums, discords, reddits. Whatever! That’s all fine. People can say what they want, when they want, where they want. That includes the right to silence, too. No one has to post here, there, or anywhere. If someone doesn’t want to, then please, don’t.

It’s when you make it a policy to police what staff or players on your game can do that it becomes sticky.

@Pavel Firan! I got you, old man. They didn’t take kindly to posting in those parts. There’s definitely been a history of admin who frowned upon people posting. I’m not entirely surprised it continues in the future, but I’d sure like to know who.

I find it very telling when people make a policy of not posting. Maybe they realized that when they post they are telling on themselves. It’s always my favorite when someone goes to post and just makes themselves look worse.

Nothing obvious out of order. I’ll update us to catch us up just in case. I’ll do it later this week, mid-morning EST. Probably not tomorrow.

Server crashed last night. Sorry about that. I’m looking into why.

Hi, guys:

Any posts elsewhere will be moved to this thread.

This is not a thread for arguments or nasty debates. We will be closely monitoring and moderating this thread in a way that we usually do not.

This is a thread for grieving, sharing resources and help for people who are impacted by all of this (which is all of us, but some more than others).

I will say I have returned to A Place after doing A Thing, and I take back the ‘not as dark’ comment. It can definitely bring the dark.

NEVERMIND. Spoiler does not actually spoiler. Bah.
