Musings of a Staff Member

[Lance]

My sincere apologies for my exhibited lack of patience earlier in this thread.

If anyone has a question about some items, or about an administrative action, they can contact me. I would much prefer being asked than to have rumors spread about me, especially untrue ones such as the allegation that I was responsible for the brutals that were passed out. As long as your question isn't worded in an accusatory manner, and sometimes even if it is, I've got no problems with answering a friendly question.

TripleE took the wrong path - He decided me to be corrupt, spread this rumor to everyone he knew, listened to every rumor that was floating around about me, assumed they were true, spread those rumors too, and then started harrassing myself and others about it.

The alternative to TripleE's behavior is the one I described - the path to find the truth, rather than to spread lies, beliefs, and twisted versions of the truth. I'll be the first to admit that sometimes things can seem suspicious, such as the stuff with the stacked brutals. However, I talked to Jagen, asked if he knew what was up with those, and he explained what happened to me, as I already explained in this thread. I didn't go "HEY JAGEN YOU MADE A BUNCH OF BRUTALS WTF IS UP U R CORRUPT", as that would not only be unprofessional, unkind, untrusting, but also very unproductive as well.

In closing, I just ask that people think about what they do and what they say, as the wrong approach can lead to adverse consequences. If people would just put some thought into their actions, the world (and graal) would be a much nicer place.
