I don't understand the beef
As many of you now know, I have been here quite a long bit of time and I have seen many players come and go. I have also seen lots of drama unfold over world chat and the forums since 2007, many dealing with staff "abuse" or miscondunct. Was any of the drama warranted? I don't know, maybe some was, but I really don't care. Bottom line is, if I was unhappy as some of these players were or are, I would just leave. Obviously, that hasn't happened to me. If you feel the staff are abusing you, why the hell are you still here? Who has a gun pointed at your head saying "play Excelsior!

Re: I don't understand the beef
+1, I'm here for fun and enjoying myself. I think at times people overreact (I have for sure, as some people know 
) but afterwards we must get over it. Everything you've said here cygnus is true

Re: I don't understand the beef
while what you are saying is logical, some people out in this world either are born with brains that aren't capable of using logic, or they were quite literally abused and beaten as children which would make them unable to understand your message. it doesn't seem likely that the beef you refer to will ever end, it's not specific to this shard or this game, it's worldwide.

Well said Cyg!
