Respectfully, it sounds like Kittens & Co. do not have an issue with competing, you both actually are in agreement on that issue! The need that I am identifying is that the Kittens want to feel acknowledged and to have some input on rules that can effect them.
Freedom appears to think that Kittens do not have legitimate standing to be making demands for reform. The objective criteria to be hashed out here is what constitutes legitimate standing - is it regular presence or simply having been in a position to be effected by the existing rules? I feel like there is a zone of agreement that would work for both parties. An alternative ruleset probably wouldn't work on grounds of 'fairness'. Perhaps simple inclusion in the discussion is enough after determining a proper objective criteria? Thoughts??
