We're not getting anywhere arguing about why some of you hate the knights. WE GET IT ALREADY you don't like what you think they are. You've said that over and over, you don't need to repeat it. Can we work on a positive solution? You are not being reasonable. It's clear that many of you just want to kill it. I want it to be left alone. Instead of repeatedly demanding you absolutely get your way, without budging at all, the more honorable thing is to work on a compromise that can solve more problems. That's what I did. I can accept the clan idea as a compromise. So instead of wasting time repeatedly demanding you deserve to get your way, let's work on this idea.
Hate, Repeating, Demanding, Unreasonable, Not budging, Time wasting....oh wow
First of all Matt, i don't
hate the HK. I basicly created the HK to begin with. You think i find it fun to wreck something that i have invested so much time and effort into it and make it in vain? Why else would i tried to save HK before?
So yeah, you are kinda right with timewasting though. I have wasted 7 years to make this damn rank to work properly and im still discussing about it today. I completely gave up on it. No compromises, no purges, no new purposes, no new requirement, no new rules...just Finito!
We had something similair when the forum was phpBB, and after BB I suggested to Mases if he could bring it back as a rank but with a bigger purpose. We even gave the freedom of electing and voting for promotion among themselfs, because we thought they were mature enough to handle it. Well we guessed wrong.
And if you find me unreasonable, fine by me. But compared to the current staff, my suggested method is more reasonable. At least i say my true intention but with arguments to back it up. Instead of letting members vote for the removal of a rank that they should not have a saying to begin with. Also have the excuse that "the members voted" so it seems fair and avoid any direct frustrations from members who disapprove. You don't see me saying like Cassandra "the members already voted for the removal so quit nagging". But the difference between me and the normal members who voted is, that im a Noble and i have that privilege. Normal members don't, but in this case the staff allowed it. That said, i think that i don't deserve this ventilation of yours.
Its a forum, there we always be some sort of social status differences in ranks. You think every forum has this psuedo-democracy system or is treated equal? I mean the members should be gratefull to actualy suggest and vote to begin with. The staff could have just voted among themselfs to remove the HK and ignore all protests from members, which was exactly the case of the first two purges. As unfair as it may sound, at least it would have spared more drama by involving the whole forum.
And if you also find me not honorable and demanding? Fine by me. I already gave a solution/suggestion with my arguments of my own and im sticking to that. So yeah, im not budging.
