You are caught up and unable to get past the words, son, > not me. I know you know how to run a mud properly, and that you know what it takes to be a good administrator. Your philosophy that you stated does not match what I have (and you have agreed) to be the Art of Administration. Your stated philosophy is the same thing I've hard many administrators who were self-destructing say. Those administrators should have known better, but they thought it was their job to frustrate players... they lost sight of the fact that the goal is the player's enjoyment. I was merely trying to point out that your stated philosophy and what you know to be the true Art of Administration don't coincide. > I responded quite aggressively, true. Do I regret calling you an > "idiot" several times (with varying degrees of adjectives)? No, > because that is what you are. I think this speaks for itself. You realize an idiot saying 2 + 2 = 4 is still right? You can't avoid facts by stating that the person giving them is an idiot. Besides that it's not productive. Imagine how this would have played out if you listened to what I said instead of taking the fact that you know how to properly run a mud (which I don't disagree with) and assumed I had nothing to say. You're stated philosophy isn't incorrect in words, the idea it represents is flawed. You should know better. +------------------------------------------------------------+ | Ensure that you have read the CircleMUD Mailing List FAQ: | | http://democracy.queensu.ca/~fletcher/Circle/list-faq.html | +------------------------------------------------------------+
