Again, didn't make him do anything. Only manipulated him so much as we didn't ban him and provided creative tools.You literally used the word "manipulated" you utter bullshit artist.

If you can point to some other manipulation that was made, feel free, but that's all we had to do. That was our highest hope for the world, that someone would come out better for their interactions there in, and Lucifier certainly did - as did some others, just not at the ratio we would have liked.The whole point of manipulation is getting someone to do/think something without forcing them, so no f*cking sh*t. And I highly doubt, given your word choice, what I've seen, and the amount of lies you've told, that your manipulation was simply "not banning" and "giving development tools".
Alas, everyone wants to rule the world, no matter how tiny and insignificant that world is, to the point where they'll threaten lives over it.
Yes, you are right, not everyone wants to rule the world - a lot of people do, and in this instance, it really only takes one to want it that badly.And that's where you are wrong, you are generalising every human being.

I'll relent further and say it's generally not so much that people want to rule the world, so much as they want to mold it to what is best for them and theirs, sometimes at the expense (or blindness) to how this affects others. It is a flawed saying, but is what put the nail in this game's coffin.
That said, I recognize I'm the disease at the center of the game as much as I am the caretaker, but the efforts I've made to pass on leadership have all failed, were refused, or resulted with the game back in my lap in short order, and now that there's legal issues on the horizon, that opportunity for that has passed. Though, again, if someone thinks they can do something with the remains elsewhere, they are free to do so, but we can no longer partake or entangle the host in such an effort. If anything is to continue here, it will have to be a fundamentally new game.
No one else capable is picking up the torch. Not familiar with what word I've gone back on, beyond "no character resets", but we don't have a choice there, even if not for this latest fiasco. No version of the game is available that doesn't eat half of old characters.Eh, you've literally gone back on your word to further justify/solidify my point of view, am i manipulating your world or am i being an influence? Take your pick, the social experiment is yours but as you can see, thoughts do cross and come to a mutual understanding... The only thing left to do is you relinquishing MS:C entirelly and move on with your life.
Re-read the top post."Legal issues on the horizon", care to explain this?

I mean, if you'd rather I just archive everything and not try anything new, we can do that too. That would have been the now fully resident alien's initial desire. It took quite a bit of convincing of several ex's we're both friends with and another married couple we love, all offering their support for a renewed effort, for it not to it have been just that.
Could start a poll to that effect, "Let it die completely vs. Archive and start over."
@The Man In Black has demonstrated he's more than capable.No one else capable is picking up the torch.
Community will be open to help as ever, and finally have some input on some bottom level things I've previously been afraid to mess with. I'd say about half of the complaints, that aren't about the loot frequencies, which should also be done away with as described, are about stuff on that level.You are literally abandoning the community as it is and seeking to do something on your own
And once took the job, back when it was still an option, and handed it back. As said, he has the archive to do with as he pleases, and he's yet to pick that up. Been in constant communication with him. He also has a kid to deal with and thus lacks the time. He's one of several I've offered it to over the years.@The Man In Black has demonstrated he's more than capable.
Well, if the community just wants the game to die, it's the other option. If it can find another home without being connected here, so is that. But if it's here, and you want to treat me and those behind me, backing the project, as an obstacle, it has no hope. Otherwise it can continue as a retirement side project. It's not as if I'm not moving on with my life. This isn't a source of income or anything, it's just a garden I tend as a hobby, one of several.We're here to overcome you as an obstacle now
There was no plan but a slow death, until two weeks before then, and I think I kept you all quite up to date as to how the development end was going (specifically nowhere). We haven't had a functioning patch for almost six years.it still would've been nice to have a heads-up about the plan well before April.

But as things stand now, no one here is required to do anything. If you're trying to kill the game out of concern for my wellbeing, I'm flattered, but I've already declared the change in direction for that reason - so to go beyond that... Makes me have to ask what it is you really want.

Well, it can't continue here due to threats to both me and the host's businesses and life. But like I've repeatedly said, you can do whatever you like with it elsewhere, however much I doubt you'll have anymore luck with it. This is a development wall I spent years trying to climb over with your full support.
The only continue here involves a reset button and severe change to the management system, which gets us both fiscal and legal support for the game.
Though MSC servers will continue indefinitely.
i'm rather confused about this. from my own experience testing the alpha build relatively extensively, it *did* seem to be functioning fine for the most (if not all, it was hard to tell how much of it was due to the listen server), though admittedly it's been quite a long time since then. i just remember it getting hung up on waiting until new weapons got implemented, which never did seem to happen?There was no plan but a slow death, until two weeks before then, and I think I kept you all quite up to date as to how the development end was going (specifically nowhere).

MSC will continue as is, for as long as the host is willing to continue it.
