October 26th 2007
As was mentioned yesterday, (ref) discussions with Tiscali to resolve the current issues plaguing us all were ongoing and planned to complete by Friday, this week. Those discussions have been satisfactory completed and agreed to by the 'Reps' as well as the Tiscali Community Producer, Games Producer and Studio Director.
Craig, Karl, and aack are the current, official, Netropolis Games Representatives and will continue as the liaison between players and the Tiscali Netropolis Games team. Alex Martin, Studio Director, will remain as primary games contact, with Steve Best as the interim (because thankfully he will) Community contact.
The existing Tiscali hosted Netropolis Forums will be closed on 09 November 2007. This will allow time for everyone to sign in to the sanctioned "Official Netropolis Representatives" site with access to the "Netropolis Reps Blog" and the "UnOfficial Netropolis Forum". Links will be placed within the Tiscali Forum Community as well as the game, to facilitate signing of members. While this will allow considerably more latitude in general posting, it is not without some rules and guidelines. These will be prominently placed within the site. The site will be administered by the Reps with general moderation duties handled by Brian Storey, Bri. Now, before you all say it, it was us, the Reps, who asked Brian, who then graciously accepted.
General News and Updates will continue to be posted within the Tiscali Community on the "Netropolis News Page", along with the agreed upon 'links' sections. As always, remember to view the "What's New" page in your rush to crush the competition.
It is sincerely hoped that we can all get back to the business at hand and the trashing of our enemies, rather than internal posturing. The further hope is that this will allow all of us a bit of freedom by self moderation, specifically geared towards the game of Netropolis, it's users, and their unique needs. It is anticipated that, in addition to standard formats, group(s) will be provided for specifically complimenting, taunting, or making good natured threats, to your enemies and friends.
Folks, we have a good opportunity here to prove we are capable of being a thriving community with little external influence, lets make the best of it.
There really are some excellent updates and plans in the pipeline. There is no current plan to shut down Netropolis, quite the contrary in fact. Once marketing/commercial gets onboard and interested, only good can come of it, long term.
Your devoted reps,
Craig, Karl, aack
