Pulled Thread

There had been a thread going, dont know if anyone else saw it/read it, about "Mega-Noobs." It had been going since mid-Sept., and admins deicided to pull it from the forum. When asked why the thread had been removed, admin told me this:


"That thread has been removed from the forum. We don't allow
reads/posts that condone griefing ingame. Some of the posts
contained in the thread were giving the message that it was
okay to grief others."


Thank you Admins for the action that was taken (sort of). I understand why it got pulled but the thing was it was up for over a month b4 any action was taken. Not until about 4-5 Krewe mates posted and voiced their 2 cents, the thread got pulled. For those who dont know of the thread, it was a thread where peeps made fun/picked on noobs just bc they could. The point the Krewe was getting across pretty much was that at one point and time, WE ALL were noobs and didnt know what we were doing.

I feel the Krewe made such an impact (even made a certain pirate feel bad about earlier post) and posted enough to get the admins invovled enough to pull the thread. I just wished they would have left it up a little longer so everyone could see how certain PEOPLE here treat others in the game. Thank you Bossman for bringing it to the Krewe attention last night. Every point you made (as well as fellow Krewe mates that posted) hit the nail on the head.

People dont know of the sitution on the other end of the puter. They never know if the person be young, old, male, female, handicapped, or not. There is no reason what so ever to pick on a 'noob'. They are new to the game and need the help. We get lucky sometimes and actually get a ty for the help ( well, I do anyway). I am a Lvl 40 and I still have to ask for help. I am not ashamed to ask for help if I need it bc I know a have a great group (outstanding more like it) of pirates ready and able to help if asked.

A special ty to Samule for the assist last night. As Bart said b4, it's time we took this game back from the griefers (and noob-haters as I call them). It's time to get back to having fun and hanging out with friends/guild mates.
