Title: Announcement Regarding Lm
Post by: Redford on May 01, 2004, 11:04:02 AM
As you may (or may not) know, recently, nem announced a change to the playtesting/veteran plan here (http://www.natural-selection.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=69490).  For those who can not read, in a nutshell, it says this:

1. Vets are toast.  I think half of nem's comments are through nessisary politeness then anything.

2. Certain vets, and community members are getting PT.

By certain community members, he means all IRC ops.  That means me.  Yes, I have been blessed with PT and for all intents and purposes, I've known about it for a while but couldn't tell anyone except the inner circle.  This means a couple things, directly to you.


1.  When I am not playtesting, I will use my experiences on LM to directly dictate my feelings of general pub server balance to flayra.

2. When I am playtesting (as you might expect) I will not be able to be on LM.

This means, what?  I may not be on quite as often as I was, but it won't be that much of an impact.  More important is this:  I will use your experiences to help shape the future of NS.  By the same token however: do not forum PM me with "ideas" or "suggestions".  Do not treat me diffrent because I am a PT.  Do not bug me because I am a PT.  I will base my observations on what I see playing in the community.  

I announced this because I thought you guys would like to know.  Maybe, you are being represented a little better now.  Just don't treat me diffrent because I got PT, kapeesh?

You get suggestions and ideas from others?  I wish I got PM spam.  :(  Yeah I'm also going to be MIA at LM for a while.  Though you should still see me at the CS server from time to time.

PT means you get a new fancy icon, which gives me one more reason to ban you ;)


Nah well LB has PT status too so between the two of you (Hunznub might too?) I'm sure we can hold some sway here :D

Mwahahah... this much closer to the power I deserve... heehheheeeheeeeee.

By the way, Welcome to PTing Redford!  Maybe you can help me with the burning question "Flayra vs HD, who is the better comm?"  :p

Hehe I didn't want that icon.  It just made me different and to some extent made people respect me less.  Besides after MUGA broke up I didn't feel like I deserved it anymore.  I say good riddance.  I'll be happy just playing with my clan tag from now on.

this is the only thing i have issue with!!! you can't play TWO GAMES AT THE SAME TIME! why you heartless PT!! no more lurving?!?


congrats prefect (that's yer name, and i'm sticking with it!). and yes, i'd always thought you had PT as well. and considering we got Plaguebearer, Jhunz, LB, and Hida who are all PTs, we shouldn't be treating you _too_ much differently ;)

Have Flayra make all LMians playtesters! :p

Seriously though, is it set up so that you can have both games installed at once?  If not, Flay making it so would probably help you with your lack of LM enjoyment.
