Succeeding in that, those rules were presented to Nilbog and rejected.

Since I didn't bitchslap this officer down and demand that he approach every member of the server individually to get their opinion on the situation, I'm apparently a sneaky, manipulative bastard abusing my dev position for nefarious means, or something like that. I had some trouble following the convoluted forum troll logic, to be honest.
Oh shut up... Read your own posts. The idea was introduced as a WI thing including IB/DA. You mentioned it was somebody else's only after people, including myself, assumed it was your idea, and then edited your posts. Furthermore, you knew beforehand, okayed it and gave input to that officer with complete disregard for other guilds on the server. What do you call someone with information they are privy to but knowingly refuse to give it to others who should be in on the matter at hand? Your officer approached only two guilds in a secretive fashion and expect to get some sort of sympathy from the rest of us for trying. Save it. What he did was a massive step backward, and you know it.

Whatever is decided has to be a comprehensive plan that can be read by all BEFORE it's given to the GMs. Not to mention having GM input from his/your already proposed plan would save quite a bit of effort for the people deciding the future set of rules. It shows what the GMs don't agree with and where they can be flexible. The fact that it was shot down with a half-hearted 2 sentence explanation of what it was does nobody any good and further feeds skepticism which has already grown towards what has occurred.

EDIT: my comments about your name being blue was repeated there by Klaatu. I, and others, were under the impression that these were your rules and your idea, you only clarified yourself after the fact. It's leverage with the other 2 guilds that I was referring to, not the GMs.
