//You know, the drama makes me not so eager to come back. Can we not?
//As a character, Marxon had significant problems that made him difficult to interact with and ultimately contributed to his removal from the RP. Even in a rebooted setting I would still hesitate on being okay with that unless he was brought back with significant behavioral changes, even if Marxon wants to volunteer to be the bad guy in a western RP and gets shot full of holes every few pages for stealing stuff. I just don't see it ending well.
//I dunno about ehks leaving, but he's probably frustrated because the admin duty got shoved onto him and is an utterly thankless job. You guys get stirred up over trivial things and rant about it for days instead of shrugging it off and moving on with other things.
//I wouldn't mind a setting reboot. What if one day everyone woke up and the world they were in was suddenly gone, everyone being dropped into another world similar to where they came from but not quite the same. You would then have the option of reusing an existing character- who may or may not remember their previous life, or making a new character entirely.
//But a LOT of the overpoweredness needs to stop. We are not gods. If you punch a tree you have a broken wrist. There isn't going to be random orbital lasers or hyperintelligent nanites or endgame wizards flinging apocalyptic spells about whenever someone sneezes without permission. Umbra and I for the longest time have tried to keep the RP somewhat balanced and civilized, and that too is a tiring and thankless task that never ends.
//Now I will talk to Ehksidian about his role in the community, and if he intends to lay down his hammer I will arrange an election to choose a new administrator.
