****So I log on in galadon. I take about five steps and this is what happens. I've edited out my walking to a couple places so I could talk without having to worry about being pk'd, and I've edited out the eating, drinking, etc. The important stuff, what was said and done, is exactly as it happened. Eyllivea just went ahead and did it for no ic reason. It's obviously an ooc decision. There is no such "no more thief" rule. And unlike the prohibition against arial assassins a few years ago, there is no global about it, and of course those arial assassins back then who were already in the cabal were not kicked out, they lived out their lives as barons. No, it's just some imms wanting to fuck with me. Ah, the smell of a lack of integrity! Oh, and to those that might say "it's entropy, random things should be expected" I say this: the goals of the cabal may be entropy, but the administration of it has always been perfectly ordered. Bank account? Uninduct. Complain about a flag? Uninduct. Randomize a room in a town? Uninduct. THere have never, in the years I've been playing, been random uninductions. This is the first. It was obviously an ooc decision. And before I forget, just so you know, I'd been a baron for about two weeks, and without doubt the most "visible" baron -- logged on more than any other baron, around more, doing things, etc. For good or for bad.*****
