Irrelevant, since that's not what is actually happening.


Fine. Who are the boys(all 12 of them) in MLHB hurting? They've been sitting for about 2 months.

You're not hurting anyone .... but you could actually be helping 31 people if you took your credits to a world that was one spot from filling instead of sitting in World Dead playing with yourself

But I don't want to play in another world. Why should you force me to do so?

FWIW, I think those 12 in MLHB should take the credits and move on. I think any world with 10 openings should be offered a deal from WifS, the owners should accept and move on.

But I don't think they should be forced to do it.

Or maybe I should amend that to two consecutive seasons with 10 openings. Half a season credit so jerkoffs don't create 5 aliases, fill their world and then depart for credits.

That's all I'm saying. How long does one have to wait before they realize it's not happening for them.

I don't think they should be forced to either. That's why my suggestion was for them to be offered an incentive to close the world.

What's keeping the other 11 from just washing their hands of it and letting the last fool sit there alone?

Right now, I'd say 30+ days and counting. Just reading their chat, I'd say some of them are determined to hold out indefinitely.

Fine by me. They're not bothering me.

because if they quit early they don't get a free credit. if they all quit together they do.

I could care less either. I just know how anxious I get to start the season. I don't even like waiting the full day to set budgets. They should just give everyone 5 minutes to do it and move on. Those guys in that world are probably going nuts.......
