Vulcan has been relatively active and has helped me on a few things which I appreciate. I enjoy having a free hand on things I'm putting together during this conversion process but there are core things I've asked for feedback and haven't heard back for a week now specifically religions. I haven't heard from Argon or Blckfire for quite sometime, easily a month but probably more..
Are you guys still interested in this? I want a proper fucking ETA now when you guys plan to be back around, if I can't get a straight answer I'll be completely honest here, I don't know if I'll have time for this. I've tried time and time again to light the fire on interest for you guys but you've got a choice to make now.
When I jumped on board information was not given to me about certain staff and their IRL circumstances, I found out only about a month later and I understood though was still pissed cause this was never intended to be a one man show. I've let this spill into the general forums cause as I stated I've tried to contact everyone of you in our group Skype chat and only Vulcan has made an appearance, now if Vulcan is your surrogate and I'm the slave labor, I've seriously got better things to do and I bet Vulcan does to.
If you don't have time for Pangaea in general as I've told you guys in the past, I'm willing to host and handle the day to day maintenance, find new staff to cover short to long term, until you are free again at which point you can take control again. This isn't about me taking absolute control but there are times specifically last week where if I had access to the live shard I could potentially hunt down why parrying was not working last Saturday or Sunday.
Now for some personal information, deadlines I've self imposed have come and gone, I'm a dawdler and jump from thing to thing even if it is not completely done, I understand that it's a piss poor work ethic. My buddy, Hayabusa is pretty much done with UO for now as some IRL issues have taken him out of the game but I'm willing to put money on other reasons specifically dealing with Pangaea in general for him, chiefly the activity I'm making a big stink about now.
So, here it is, my last attempt, the ultimate attempt to get some fires lit to get your pots boiling but if nothing comes from this or I get short term appeasement and action which drops off, it's time to evaluate if I should jump on a life boat or continue trying to bail water.
My sincerest apologies to players for this subject spilling over into public forums but you should know that I've tried time and time again to try to spark the fire of action and creativity and I'm growing a bit sick of it.
Staff, as I said Vulcan's been a bit of a help but I want you guys to think seriously if it isn't time to give up the ghost and if even temporarily pass the torch. If not to me fine I get I can be a bit argumentative when I disagree with things I don't like and maybe even have a trust issue with me because I have a history with pol which includes working with the Pangaea 094 scripts under two different shards, the more popular of which being Avalon, but find someone else to host and step back so we can hash out what needs to be done for religions and future dev.
The new religion system was never fully hashed out and written out somewhere but at this point because of the inability to answer even my basic questions I've again stopped work on the new religion system but the old system is running under 099. If you truly don't care I'll script my ideal religion system and put it in place but I assure you it's very different than the religion system you want. I never intended to get so involved with pushing ideas for the religion stuff but when I discovered the disarray non existent game plan for what religions would be I figured I'd push my thoughts forward and pushed hard for them. I've since back peddled on piety and foci for Pangaea but don't want to turn religions into a gold sink. My religion system will strip piety, foci and any notion of gold sinks in the form you want for religions so the ball is in your court, let's get this shard running on all cylinders.
I just want an honest answer when you guys will be back in the game on a regular basis and if you don't plan to be anytime soon let's agree to find new blood and pass the baton to someone else.
(I don't need player feedback on this, don't need to pile on, this is literally the last attempt I'll make at trying to light any fire under the other staff. Vulcan's been pretty decent about helping and feedback though so this is more geared toward Argon and Blckfire, maybe a dickish move but I kind of don't care at this point
