I really like surprises of this nature, probably more then most people, but I don't think keeping anything secret is going to help the population at all. If anything doing that would create an effect similar to the pyro update did where everyone is going to be discouraged by what seems like a never moving project and simply telling people to expect something new has too strong a chance to come off as hollow promises. If you want people to start coming on again I think it would be much better to give them something tangible to be excited for as opposed to just telling them to stay tuned for something that has sadly been a very slow development progress in the past.

Agreed, I've always thought that there is a difference between expressing your genuine opinion of something that you seriously believe in. Then there's being toxic because you think the way certain people react to it is funny. The latter is just purely fun at other people's expense, and that is not ok. In most cases, if fun is to be had, then all the parties involved should think it's fun.

I may go on a bit of a rant here so feel free to disregard this as the ramblings of a madman. When it comes to how people are on the servers, some people seem to forget how their own attitudes affect everyone else. Our members and regulars form the backbone of this clan and it's servers. As such, they are the people new comers look up to as the posters boys (and girls) of sorts of the place. Because of this it is the behavior of our more prominent members on the servers that is seen as the norm to everyone else, which leads to them interpreting that however they act is the way to be around here. So when people are "shittalking" and often acting unfriendly or even flat out rude, it only encourages everyone else to do the same. It is rather irritating to see people behave in such a careless mannerism themselves but quickly jump on anyone seen as less prominent when they act in the same way. As a community, we set the example of how to interact on the servers. As a community, we are responsible for improving our own act if we want the greater population to improve as well. tldr if people want the servers to start having more positive attitudes about them then they need to take initiative to have more positive attitudes on the servers themselves.

Oh you were responding to me. Ok then, let me explain myself because I think you missed the point of my post. I can't ignore the only notable point of reference I have. BIAS??? Really? Did you not pick up that I was saying I don't know him at all? How can I ignore how he has been recently if we have never talked in the first place? The entire point I was going for was that I have literally no other point of reference as to his character based on my experience. Tell me how I can be biased against somebody I don't even know? For all I know that could be an advantage, a blank slate minus one dated event. As for how he did as staff, well to be frank I didn't play on either of the trade servers quite often at that time so I didn't see all that much from him, and I am sure you are well aware of how that term as staff ended (the cause for my concern). Of course you think he should have a chance at mod, he is your friend. Also the question was not of his capability in the first place... In as simple of terms possible; I was telling Sesh that if he wants me to change my vote he better well try to at least help me get to know him.

AHHHH WHY DID IT CENSOR MY NAME
