		<description>O.o 

Regardless of what is said using foul language just makes you look bad. I&#039;ll admit I&#039;m no angel but my cussing is never aimed at anyone, just aimed at life itself. 

What little I read reminds me of the narrow mindedness I saw in the old Mysterium Committee before they revamped themselves. It&#039;s not hard to organize something and not hard to make a group structured without making things &quot;murky&quot;. Simply put...it&#039;s a job, like your job keep your feelings out of it. 

If you choose to help or volunteer to do something keep your ego/feeling out. Even when you think your under attack take it as it should be taken; use it as constructive criticism. I&#039;ve heard worse from myself and colleagues in regards to my work. I never took it to heart thinking it was aimed at me but at my work. Even the criticism that might be aimed at you that isn&#039;t constructive should be viewed this way. Helps to keep the blood pressure down.  ;) 

I&#039;m not taking sides, but if this is what the &quot;governing&quot; body of the guild is like then I want no part of the guild, which is sad since I had hoped to contribute in my spare time (which admittedly is very little and far between my real life demands). I don&#039;t like dealing with politics and I HATE it when someone feels it&#039;s appropriate to say &quot; Tell him to shut the fuck up, bastard&quot;. Really that was unnecessary and should there have been new potential &quot;recruits&quot; they would have gotten a very bad first impression. 

Oh, well. I won&#039;t be joining, the primary reason being if someone feels it&#039;s okay to cuss at someone then I want no part of that...my second reason is that I unfortunately have way too many usernames and passwords to deal with and having to set up another just so I can have access and or get help on learning to age create is more than my poor beleaguered mind can handle.

I&#039;ll be getting help from those friends in CC that are willing to deal with my form of insanity and slow learning....at least they are accustomed to my kind of crazy.

		<description>TNT is The New Tree. It was an Age Creation forum set up almost immediately after the plugin release in October on 2005.

It merged into Age Builders in early-mid 2006 IIRC.</description>

		<description>Thanks for posting (still sorting out what that means, but it confirms me in not messing with politics :D ).
Now, can someone please sort out all these abbreviations? AB I know to be AgeBuilders, GoW and GoMa are also clear, as are COBBS and Alcugs... but what is CC and TNT?</description>

		<description>This is what you call being railroaded.  Dox, decided he wasn&#039;t happy with how things were and he found a way to selfishly destroy what others had been doing.

So he exploited Hoikas, Kato and I.  Then for fun, posted it all up here in public so he can look at it and have a good laugh.

Either way he won.  It doesn&#039;t matter if the GOW was actually going in a good direction or not, the GOW is Dox&#039;s playground and if your not invited you better stay away.</description>

		<description>The Myst/URU community seems to have this curse with organizing itself. Sometimes I wonder if it&#039;s something deeper and more sinister, like an actual curse associated with trying to organize around a game about a civilization that pretty much self destructed...

Then I remind myself I don&#039;t believe in such silly things.

Perhaps you guys should try an unstructured wiki and just help people out that way? Just because it&#039;s called &quot;Guild of Writers&quot; doesn&#039;t mean it literally has to be a guild.

eh, just my two cents worth. I just woke up and it&#039;s 4AM. I held my piss to read this :S</description>
