As part of the joint effort with invoking this discussion, Verence and I have both agreed to largely remain out of this thread from here on out. This is being done to avoid having too much influence over the community’s thoughts. As such, it is pertinent that you all voice your opinions as *individuals* rather than allowing a leader or friend speak on behalf of you. This of course does not mean linkshell leaders shouldn’t join the discussions as well (as they should). But for the sake of this thread, everyone should be viewed as speaking for themselves only and we can only hope that this fosters greater community participation in this discussion.
Please make note of the etiquette mentioned in the above post before making any posts. Namedropping, finger-pointing, and passive-aggressive taunts/attacks on *anyone* are not allowed. Doing any of these will simply resurrect old emotions and start battles anew. In fact, it is highly advised to avoid mentioning much about the past at all when possible. This thread is about the future and moving forward. While we may have to look back to the past here and there to do that, one should not dwell on said past. Should there be any namedropping or finger-pointing, I will not hesitate to enforce the etiquette mentioned in the above post by deleting that portion of your post. As stated in the original post, you agree to the terms set forth simply by posting in this thread. And one of the original RPC forum rules is about respect. Please show it here especially. Everyone is welcome to their opinion, regardless of how strong it is, but nobody is welcome to personal attacks.
Should there be a direct question toward myself or Verence individually, we will quickly answer it and move back out of this thread. However, I wouldn’t imagine that there are direct questions about anything unless it’s something regarding clarification.
Again, it is imperative that you let your voice be heard. If you truly wish the community to get back on its feet, please speak up and give your opinions on what can be done to do so. You may not even realize that your single post could have a tremendous impact on the direction of things!
Thank you all and we look forward to the possible discussion that begins here, as well as the years of wonderful RP interactions ahead!
