There are a lot of things on my mind. Yesterday while talking to a friend I realized how much MD has become a part of my life. Friends I made here have been closer to me than those I have had to work with and stay with. They know more about me than most people in my life. I have felt them share my happiness and they've been with me to share my sorrows as well. I have received love and friendship unconditionally, unselfishly It does not end there. MD has taught me few of the basic rules of life as well. That life is not always fair. That life rewards those who never give up. Or those who work hard. If not instantly, definitely at some point of time. It helped me realize majorly that not all people are how they appear. If there are liars, cheaters, manipulators and bullies, there are also those who are willing to help, lend you time or an ear, people who have your back. That there is no dearth of kindness and benevolence. It has taught me optimism. That bad always happens. But there's some good somewhere around it. It has taught me about loyalty, about persistence, about wit. It has taught me that being different is always a pro because it helps you to learn. I learned about the different shades a person projects. I learned how to appreciate a person's point of view. That language is never a barrier to free thinking. Everyday I learn that I am not the only person with n number of problems in life. And how to stay cheerful despite all that. Everyday I learn about history, geography, current affairs and stuff happening around the world. I learn how to appreciate art, the different varieties of humor, the different styles of expression. I learn how to attain victory. I learn how to accept defeat. And from defeat I learn never to give up. I have learned how to Welcome people. I have learned how to say goodbyes. Today when someone mentioned 'What if MD gets closed down?' it kinda hit me. Of course one would learn to live without it. But hell it'd be tough. So, I thought it better to convey how I truly felt about this community and this game. I highly doubt MD will ever be a phase for me. Thank you MD community for all the good and the bad that has happened till date. You have taught me a lot. I am grateful for everything. P.S. NO I AM NOT LEAVING YET ><

Why pretend being satisfied by doing honorary service? [/quote] i bet that askin for pay is sure way on how to lose council seat, game on financial breakdown cant afford to pay those councilors (assuming they havent been offered payment from day1 which i highly doubt) [quote name='Nimrodel' timestamp='1357100504' post='129472'] P.S. - I am doing LHO work in the game. I was prepared to answer as many questions as possible when I took up my post. [/quote] sorry coucil receives emails 24/7, you receive pms while you are online and you arent only lho in game, council is only one and it consists from more than one person, if you only want notification about your email being read, then lookup wut chew said [quote name='Chewett'] Sounds like a good idea but have you tried attaching a read receipt to your mails? thats what i do when i want to know if they have read it? Again something we can do lol [/quote] [/quote] I hate to drag this ön but you clearly seem to be missing my point. So you mean to say they are scared to ask for payment because they can be kicked out of their position and because of that they wont reply to emails unless they want to? Lol. Not really helping the cause are you? Also, Payment can be made in terms of in game coins or credits or smthng like that? Unless they want to be paid outside the game. Also, since you said that there are more than one council members, why nt divide work in time zones? Chewy did suggest a way, but not everyone is as technosavvy as him. I'm not saying I do more work than the council or that i'm doing a better job than them. All i did was SUGGEST something. Every second or third day there is a note in the in game or forum MP requesting council to read their email which stays there for atleast 4-5 days. That Doesn't really help the council's image.

[quote name='No one' timestamp='1357095823' post='129470'] Council being know ? Good or bad ? Do we need a new council ? 2. Do you want answers in 48 hours? *** to council : I am sorry that I bothered you with my ONE stupid question in 3/4 years. *** How many emails do you answer each day EVERYDAY ? If every idiot that consider that they want to ask one "smart" question, considering the pondering of answers ... how many answers / emails / posts do you think that they should exchange ? You moron, you are not alone, there are tens of emails and issues to be considered and most of them more important. Are they payed for being a council member? Do they gain anything in game or RL for it ? I think not, I have not seen any increase in game that is not explainable. So, you want the answers fast very good. [b]PAY FOR THE ANSWERS[/b]. [/quote] I didn't suggest people to sort out the problem in 48 hours. I suggested a reply stating that the mail has been read. and things will be looked into. Just that piece gives lot of reassurance to a player. Thats all. Its a BIG RESPONSIBILITY No one. If one cant live upto it, they might as well give up their position as a council member. If they want to be paid for that job, let them ASK for payment. Why pretend being satisfied by doing honorary service? I Never said I'm not satisfied with the council. In fact I am probably one of the few people who agreed with the with the presence and working of the current council in the poll. I know the members have problems too. And in my opinion they are working fine considering this is not the only job they have in their lives. Everybody is bound to have flaws. If one takes constructive criticism so badly, losing their temper over a small piece of advice... Hell I just hope you aren't a council member. But thats that. I am not posting anymore. I don't want this thread to turn into a flame war because of me. P.S. - I am doing LHO work in the game. I was prepared to answer as many questions as possible when I took up my post.

yeah. Better student, better partner, and if possible, a better daughter..

[quote name='Chewett' timestamp='1356946244' post='129343'] Personally some decisions that council have to ponder should not be taken "as fast as possible" unless you want big issues. I see MP7 as an example of this occuring. Someone has begged mur so much that he has decided to grant them something which breaks multiple established game concepts... [/quote] What I meant was atleast reply the person with a "your mail has been read. We will work on it shortly" or something like that saying yes the mail was read not not just deleted or left.

Here's what I think: 1. Council at any costs should be anonymous. If they become known, all it'll be is a 'like-dislike-hate' situation. For example- if xyz is incriminated for something and gets punished by the council, they are bound to be disliked by a certain sect of people friendly and loyal to the guilty. Also, the number of personal attacks will rise just because they will be a certain 'n' number of players who'll always have had issues with them in the past. 2. The council, i suggest, should be re elected after a certain timescale. Like maybe every 2-3 months. Of course its a great responsibility to elect the council. I would suggest Mur or the members of the previous council to elect the members. There should be a strict policy of no re election in any of the consecutive terms. 3. Council should contain an equal proportions of a fossil, a vet, and a new player with basic understanding of coding and mechanics. 4. I suggest council post their ideas for open poll before they are decided upon. 5. I'm totally against the idea of a single 'king'. I've seen enough in game and out of game bum-kissing get rewarded. I'd prefer the ruling body stay anonymous. 6. I suggest the voices of the council to be the ones to gather public feedback and complaints after every announcement and relay them to the council. 7. I suggest the council reply to all the pms they get. Within 48 hours. That would sort out a lot of issues. If they fl they are understaffed, they might as wel get more people.

Because: Change has to change. Whims and fancies usually change in a period of time. Change's favorite principle became principle of time. So even though Change's perception of tastes changes, It all is the same in the end. Change developed a respect for odd numbers because Change started noticing subconsciously that odd numbers are the essence of even numbers. Change got bored of liking even numbers.
