> Actually, speaking of my mailbox, I've got mixed emotions about the irony involved in having Challen quit the game because of disillusionment around the imm staff not holding some higher moral ground. Certainly we're all guilty of hypocrisy from time to time, I guess. (And since the Net is cruel, I should point out that I say that only as a casual observation, not as a flame.) Two things... First, it's not so much disillusionment at the fact that the immortals aren't saints, but more the fact that it simply didn't feel like a game anymore. Part of that is my fault, perhaps, but that's the case regardless. Secondly, I'm not sure to what you're referring with regard to hypocrisy. I've been guilty of using OOC information to benefit my character on one definite occasion (going to get an item after someone announced their deletion on IRC), and I got slayed for it and subsequently deleted. I've been guilty of a lack of discretion when it comes to keeping quiet about my current characters. Perhaps I failed to show due respect to Hell when I went through as Dhaevor. I've never denied any of the above, nor claimed that I was a saint myself. Honestly, I can't think of anything that's "cheating" or "immoral" that I've done with relation to CF in the past 3 years beyond those instances cited. If you care to enlighten me, I'd be curious as to what you're referring... either on here or via e-mail (I can't check my usual acct. from work, so please use the above if you choose to e-mail).
