Because you post things that I feel I should post my feelings on, as well. Not so much as arguing, as it is just a discussion of opinions, so to speak.

1)Ignored all players
2)Logged off
It is very well possible he didn't want to be bothered? What a concept! Yet people still fail to grasp that idea one way or another.

The (Staff) tag is used to test npcs.

Whether or not he is in the staff list is irrelevant...the simple fact is that he was busy and he didn't need to be inturrupted which probably many failed to understand.

for those of you who don't know what a "contego" is here's the general concept

I've known contego since he had Zero power. He was a recruiter for TCN but thats nothing to brag about anymore... He started a server (Shaded Legend) it launched with a great start, lots of potential and interest from players. He left and Shaded Legend slipped into the abyss that is "lazy staff syndrome". He was then offer GM by Stefan. He worked for a while as that and then recently quit. I don't yet know exactly why but i suspect, as with most good staff, that it was due to frustration from ignorant players.

Thats my input.

btw... he was awesome and you don't like him you can go jump in a lake.

He was a good GM for a little while. In the beginning, yes, he was good.

Then, he began to make mistakes. He came onto Providence RC and started ordering us around as if he owned the server. Major mistake. Ours wasn't the only server he did that on.

Then, the contego evil calmed down for a little while. No major things happened until recently. When he made a *****ic move.

Power corrupted contego horribly; he didn't want any of the friends that he had made staff being removed by others, so he pulled the ultimate...trump card, of sorts, since he was global GM.

He made it so that no one could fire ANY staff, not even a Police member on Graal 2001 could be fired, without checking in with contego, or so I understood. Which is a horrible idea and a stupid system and ultimately sealed contego's fate.

Because of things like this and public outcry, he quit.

Not event event team members could be fired. Though I am glad someone is not so blind to the truth of it all.

I didn't know him before he was a GM. What he did then really doesn't matter; when he was staff...that's what matters.
