I just got back, and Sarah is banned again? I missed most of the post, after the chess match challenge. was it just gaming talk, about beating one opponent or another? my little boys do that, and they say they don't mean any of the things, it is just pretend. cops and robbers, soldiers and guerillas... (sorry), sopranos and mezzos (my arena)... Can anyone access the offensive material and just censor that, and let the game finish? it is a shame to come to within hours of completion and be banned again. where is the hope for redemption? Sarah is a warrior, and perhaps in the heat of the battle, she was less than diplomatic. but diplomats make up a very small percentage of a percentage of the world. most people are not so circ**spect in their declarations. and turil, nomadHAR, Linda, and sarah shaw-t. and several others can probably enlighten us as to the pecentage of people who are able to filter their comments when fully involved in a flow-confrontation, even if online. Was any harm inflicted to any of the readers or participants? I do not presume to second-guess Alchemy or the runners, monitors, the ever-hovering Ning (my own personal black swan, the shadow of the nIng!!) or the person/participant, if there is one, who felt directly threatened by the comment stream. but I would be very interested to know, since we are all becoming something of a family here on evoke, what went on, and who might have felt threatened, by whom (I guess that might be Sarah, then), and whether or not any threat was implied... because all families have their problems. I don't throw my preschooler out into the street when she shrieks to my first-grader "you put peanut buddr on my twuck. I will kill you now!!!" although I will give her and my son a time out.

As a policy, we do not share details or publish threats received as to do so would further harm the individuals threatened. This is standard community moderating practice.
Numerous players and game runners have reported harrassment, and reports have been confirmed with chat transcripts, emails, and the like.
Anyone who does not agree with the EVOKE Code of Ethics, or who feels they would rather participate in a more free-for-all environment, isl welcome to voluntarily leave.
There will be no further official discussion of this incident and you are welcome to continue evoking and working on your evokations. Please note: In our policy of creating a friendly environment and not condoning harassment or threats of any kind, explicit support of individuals who have been banned for harrassment and insinuating violence may be deleted, or accounts blocked and all content deleted. Please consider whether you wish to continue participating in EVOKE when defending the actions of someone who has been banned for repeated hostile, personal, on-site and off-site harrassment of numerous game players and game runners.

fine then, destroy any shred of ethics that UE might have held.
i have been a witness to destructive and tyrannical censorship. if you want to undermine your own message by acting like a petty tyrant, i guess i can't stop you.

-
is it just because the Ning platform was getting very slow, and the comment pages and onlookers were slowing the final post moments still further?
-

when i say i have been a witness, i have distant relatives stuck in North Korea.
if you want to align UE with Kim Jong Il, then so be it.

The food actually tasted fresher than in the past and was easy to keep fueled.Dad was very proud of the solar hybrid…See More

In addition the Stinging Nettle consists…See More

Future
FutureToday is 2020/1/1. It is just like yesterday. The war is still continuing. It has started since 2010. In 2010, that year was a horrible year. Almost every energy ran out.

Food was bought up xawayx at once. There were no more food supplies in any shops. The economy was all crushed down. All the…See More
