**Rant portion**
Some of you may have either heard about, or been involved with, a few incidents which have occured on the new-player line that have resulted in several newbies being driven from the line and the general nature of the line itself disrupted. This is NOT acceptable!
It seems that most of the incidents have arisen from roleplaying differences/enforcement. The New-Player channel is NOT roleplay enforced. It is ment to help new players with game mechanics, interface issues ect. Not for roleplaying.
Some people choose not to get out of character in game. That is fine. But do not get upset and angry when people choose not to roleplay back when you are in this channel. I ask that you respect the new players and their questions and do not get hostile, rude or just down right mean about it.
**Discusion portion!!!**
I wish some feedback from the community reguarding ways to help combat these problems. As I myself cannot always be here to "babysit" the room and make sure everyone behaves. And as it is a public TG botted line there is absolutely no way to remove the offending person unless they areasked, andvoluntarily leave. And by that time it is often to late and the damage has been done.
Creating a player-made room has been discussed, andabandoned. Seeing as how we would have the same issues, or the possiblity of the offender being the only mod in the room. Which would be bad.
So I ask of the community this, suggestions, ideas something!! Other than trying to politely ask the person causing the problems to stop i don't really see any other way around this.
**Part II**
I would also ask that nominations be taken for a new co-team leader, as Frisco has been missing for over a month now. I will start a new thread for the nominations/discussion thereof. The vote will be held at the next possible meeting, with the new leader to take"office" after.
