IRC is a downloadable program that requires you to PAY a fee to use, but you get a free trail. It allows you to directly contact the Devs, but you have to download it and it costs money...
The Forum: IS FREE, the game: IS FREE, IRC: IS NOT FREE..
See how this can cause a problem... If someone wants to report the abuse of a gm, or something similar, he cannot unless he pays a fee and waits on the download time. Now then I know PS has a long download time, so if you can wait throught that you should be able to wait through the irc download right? Well, suppose someone is fed-up with waiting... The forum doesn\'t need to be downloaded...
The game being free, means that the help in making the game a better place should also be free, and the government should be a \"to the vote\" thing instead of a tyranny of overlords who AT WILL can destroy someones \"fun time\" just because they were having a \"bad day\".
Also, when one wants to argue a point, or reference such Tyrannical behavior, they can\'t, do to the fact that if there \"trial\" is up and they don\'t the money, or the memory to get IRC then how do you expect them to explain what happened?
If the devs are making a game where people are only suppose to have fun when they are \"Told\" to have fun, then I guess this is totally fine, but totally pointless. There are so many rules that need to be discussed among the players, about the gms, and there power... but we can\'t because of the fact that we have to pay for a what should be free service. That we may only use once in our whole time, or twice in two seperate times being 1-2 months apart....
Off Main Topic:
Naming Policy and \"so-called-spam\" in PS is actually very, very, VERY, ridiculous. Because if someone is a cat race, and wishes her/his first name to be Kat it should be allowed, because Kat is a legitimate name, its just when you take Real life into PS it doesn\'t seem legit, but then again I was muted, for shouting \"Spagetti\" ... They said spagetti doesn\'t exist... Well, if it doesn\'t then your basically ripping away my roleplaying theme, and even if it doesn\'t it should still just seem like \"gibberish\" to you. So if I said, \"I am a Dragon\" people should just look at me and be like, \"whats a dragon?\" instead of \"You can\'t say that because dragons don\'t exist\", well then they would because your actknowledging there existance in non-existance....
