Why do people feel the need to be washed in bullshit politeness just because they come here. As classic as you want this experience to be, the Customer Service is not going to be. For one really simple fucking reason, too. These guys don't get paid. And you aren't spending money to pay their rent.

That's a dumb concept, it shows that moral, just and proper behavior is thrown out the window for something so shallow as not being paid to do this. P99 is a volunteer project by nature no one is forcing these people to develop, no one is forcing these people to police the server, in fact if they jumped ship there would be a list of people ready to replace them because that is the nature of volunteering, I could GM this server with less scrutiny simply because of my "no ban" policy, I refuse to ban people and I refuse to police to population.

So when you sit here and say:

These guys don't get paid. And you aren't spending money to pay their rent

like it's some excuse for lackluster/abrasive behavior it almost makes me wonder... When I volunteer to feed the homeless every Thanksgiving it's a rule that the homeless population don't take more than one piece of pie, but sometimes they take two because they're hungry, I could enforce the rule and ban them from the pie table and send them right back out into the freezing cold weather hungry, but I don't.

By that same logic because I don't get paid, and these people aren't paying me rent when one of them breaks a rule of the Flanner house, I should ban them then proceed to go on WISHTV-8 verbally assaulting them and posting their info all over for the community to see...

Then again, I'm not power-tripping over a 100% volunteer project that I could walk away from at any time with no questions asked, I'm not flying off the handle because I'm dealing with some of the most mentally unstable people the city has to offer for 8 hours at a time, so I don't see why that argument has any weight whatsoever...

IMHO people who act like dicks and use the "volunteer" card to justify their piss-poor behavior are simply shallow pricks that hold every moral and ethical thought and decision against the weight of the dollar, and that my friend is why certain people in this world are such terrible human beings
