Producer Changes

I was a staffmember for about a year back around 2002/2003. I retired cause I was too tired of policing players, etc, and because of typical MUD drama.

I later had issues with Nessalin and Sanvean, the former because he's ridiculous and the latter because of something that was my fault. I logged in one day to find my account banned and was like, well, that was that. Never got an explanation but I suspect it had to do with posting silly threads in their offtopic forum. Not offensive, just silly. I think the thread that got me banned was a thread encouraging people to eat more fiber.

To lose my character and account for that made me think I didn't want to put my hard work in the hands of people who would do that.

I still toy with the idea of coming back just because I loved the environment and playing it as a solo survival mud was pretty fun. But I can't help but to wonder if I'd end up getting banned again after putting more work and care into a character because of something that was BS because one of the main Imms decides he or she doesn't like you.

I remember one player was drawing characatures of the Imms. It was quaint, whatever. Nessalin told the player in question not to draw anything for his Imm account. So the player just used a Sun image and called it Nessalin for his Imm portrait collage. Nessalin banned him. Such a enjoyable human being.

Yeah I went to the Imm gathering, not the APM.

I was Narlac there, never did much of note other than play the Borsail senator during the trial of that one chick who was a Merchant who then became a Tuluki noble house. You probably have never heard of me.

I also helped kill Pearl with that necro window spell on a character of mine but I thought that whole thing went down really lovely and I felt bad for Pearl. Basically here is an extremely long-lived character and 10 loving people wearing masks jump out of a hole in nothing 'kill pearl' and she drops to the ground before she knows what happens. I wasn't an Imm at that point but I was shocked and did one of those immortal messages about how bad I felt about how it went down.

I dunno, such a great game but I really never got some of the staff members. I remember my first day as staff I was like 'hi' to Nessalin, and told him I work in network engineering, thinking I could be of assistance in running the tech side of poo poo too and he goes 'I don't fucking care about your life.'

Then I met him at an Imm gathering and he's a fat, pasty long-haired and quiet-spoken nerd. I'll never understand superiority complexes from Mud immortals.
