.. LETS CHANGE RULES LAWL

I am tired of people trying to change the rules. Especially when they are pointless changes.

You know, it's kind of ironic how much people complain about RP. Everyone on here is so.. hypocritical. There are certain circumstances where changing the rules is alright.

However, people on here seem to think all circumstances are good means. For example, if you want ANYTHING tailored just to you, you post a rule change about it. Why.. ?

Because people - i.e. us - want everything to tailor to their specific needs.

... It doesn't work. Sorry.

So, please, for the sake of RP. Give a nice reason for rule changes.

Another thing - people try and instate rules on the admins - i.e. change the rules if x% voted yes, y% voted no. Well, I hate to be rude, but.. they are ROLEPLAY rules. Seeing as they are inclined to the roleplay, admins' "rules" shouldn't be posted in the RULE change section.

... The rule change section is for roleplay. Not admins.

You can ask nicely and I'll see how the people feel about it.

As for the topic that had some people say "try it out", THAT STILL IS A YES. "Try it out" really is just another form of Yes. That's all it is... except with no bonds.

Even though yes has no bonds anyways.

You'll have no bonds if you're not careful.

Reid is the founder of the forum. So it's only logical. So it all comes down to the admins. I mean, if the people vote in acceptance towards something, the admin still has to decide if it's good for the rp. Same the other way. People might vote against it and yet and admin might see it worthwhile or necessary and it goes into rule. So this is what I understand from this post.

So therefore, regardless of what Reid has said before.. the admins do have more power than others?

No, the admins aren't in control.

I hate dictatorships, but they are sometimes necessary. My part about the admins was mainly aimed towards whomever created the topic about..

Rules shouldn't be passed if they have like 11-9 yes-no stats. When they are/aren't passed is left up to admins, and admins not being "inside" rp in this sense doesn't mean they can have restrictions placed on them.

In other words, you can ask the admins - mainly me - if you want things done differently. If the majority of people like your proposal, then I'll do it. No need to make a vote about it.

Essentially any rule change that is.. well, dumb.. I remove.

I hate to overstep my power, really do. But some things must be done, unfortunately. Besides, I think I'm trustworthy enough.

And if all else fails, there are other admins to keep me in line. Anyone in the root admin group has the ability to usurp my account. >>
