You're just out of the loop, Kat. You should of figured that out 30 posts ago.

What comes to the poll, I don't think it's about Boris being an admin. Those days are clearly gone and as far as I know, he still doesn't share the same view with the current staff. Being responsible for rule violations and punishments is another thing. It's a dirty job that he enjoys.

All the more reason to say Nope to Boris...
He did fine while he was here, but he left the door open for the dogs to come in and out as they please... time for the new Administration to determine whether or not the dogs are welcome and as players we either stick with the decision or gtfo.

I don't think Boris favoured any one group. Hell, we who know the guy IRL, didn't even know he was Boris until he quit. It seemed during the years he lost interest and turned from someone who genuinely tried to help people to a douchebag - equally to everyone.

I'd love to believe that, I really would... but as much of a "douchebag" he was, I can think of more times when it appeared to be directed at the RP side of the server in favor of the PvP side, and maybe I am mistaken, but I am a man who requires evidence... and all of my personal experience with it indicate that it was in fact bias... like I said, I used to think highly of Do'Brim but when I heard he was Boris it was a HUGE shock, even now I still hate to think that someone so into the RP could (imho) turn their back on the RPer's.
and like I said, maybe you're right... but the fact that this PvP thing boiled over the way it has, to me, shows that my evidence is more spot on than off mark as some people would like to claim.

He don't need my help anymore. He is digging his own hole pretty well. ;)

As far as I know, Boris treated the people he knew from RL even worse than others. Being an even bigger dick to them made the cover thicker. Otherwise I agree with Darian, being completely incognito made sure that typical accusations on being biased, etc. were eliminated. After banning several players and fellow GM's, there really isn't any space to start favoring anyone.

Or, well, I guess he did favor Johnny like Kat's continuesly implying... in form of marks and jail time.

Yeah, I remember when he punished me to get information about Telborea taking over Malas. A real hardass towards trolls and PvP'ers that guy.

Boris did totally not give Telborea a malas rune.
