GM's aren't allowed to have player accounts. That applies to everyone, including me. My old player account was turned into a testing account back in 2010 and it has been used by several GM's ever since. Besides being used for bugs, testing and developing, it's the best possible cover.

Nein, Orgl was a comic created back in 2005 or so. I think the complete name was "The Adventures of Orgl". Here's one of the strips with Fudge and Monad.

What else?

I'm not a complete dick, but I've been role-playing one for years. The character Boris is based on GM Daelor and Co-Admin Terence, so my goal was to create a complete dick, who's rude, stubborn and straight-forward. Signing every post "- Boris" is nothing but character and the same thing applies to "Borisism". What is Borisism? Everything from "KISS" to "give some, take some" to "all or none". Instead of role-playing a normal character, I simply decided to role-play a GM. As years went by, my character started to break and I guess the joker in me came out.

Like it or not, but I'm the alpha and the omega -> everything's connected. If I wouldn't of taken control after Alty, we wouldn't be here.

No Boris, no Pang.
No Boris, no Monad. No Monad, no Argon.
No Boris, no Wille. No Wille, no scripting. No scripting, no future.
No Boris, no dedicated server. No dedicated server, no 3D ban. No 3D ban, no clean looting.
No clean looting, no economy. No economy, no market. No market, no community.

Ps. Bill Boggey is nothing but a random nobody from the past.

Your replacement will have alot to live up to man - the only time the shard has been somewhat balanced in its entirety has been this past few years back since you took over the reigns. Even when I started back there was some no looting/robbing rules.

I don't like the sound of
After that it was clear a new breed of staff will start ruling the shard with a wider and softer view/vision.
A softer view and vision of what?! It can't get any easier going than it currently is without bringing any queer looting rules back or restricting pvp - which just isn't what pang is all about.

I look forward to seeing you as a player anyway - I doubt having a bit of inside knowledge will really help that much. You still have to train and start from the beginning as far as im aware and you know that old saying 'its pang bro' - the whole process isn't fun.
Look at monad for example hes a very knowledgeable newbie still until he prooves himself otherwise :P

PvP and clean looting will stay no matter what. They're not idiots.

I'm not saying the future will be worse. It may be better than ever, but it's just not my cup of tea. The shard is already moving to a less "It's Pang brah" direction and that trend will continue.

Or do I?

And it's only the tip of the iceberg. Mark my words, softer view.
