If you mean \'thread\', I don\'t see a problem.
...but if you mean he turned up on the actual Mirth Forums (which you probably don\'t)....

Getting good? It stopped being a long, long time ago. :rolleyes:

Now, you go along and stop making failed attempts to live in the past.

Ah, other guild\'s thread... when did this event you speak of occur?

And why, exactly, would you be taking me down? I offer my apologies if I killed any family members, tripped you, etc.

Well there WAS a post in here by TheRedMonk I believe and he mentioned something about one of your members joining his new guild..but looks like it was deleted! Only one reason I want you taken down is because you seem to be the source of corruption the one who infilitrated SH? That is you everyone is talking about correct? I may not know you that well but I will sure the hell help stop any people like you!

infiltrated, source of corruption... what nasty words.

I get the distinct impression that you don\'t like me.

See another thread for illumination.

*Sigh* I am NOT liking the communities current state. Things used to be great, I\'m glad to have Mirth back, so I go to the Mirth guild thread after a while of avoiding guild threads hoping to see a bit of Planeshifts old and dwindling fire and all I see is a huge argument about the wording of something in Mirth\'s beliefs. I personally see nothing wrong with what was said... At any rate, Welcome back. And, so you know, you have the full support of myself and The Forsaken Ones...or what\'s left of us. With you guys back we\'re a step closer to restoring Planeshift to it\'s once great self. Good luck.

It\'s called \"The Ordo Illuminati\". ;)

Well that\'s an actual guild... some, like myself and some people in Mirth are \'oldbies\' but still wish to run their own guild. Some kind of organization would be nice, not neccesarily and oldbie alliance but maybe some kind of movement to turn the community around involving the guilds as they typically have more power than individuals.

In the past we have suggested a regular meeting of representatives from the major guilds in PS, and even taken it a step too far and suggested that this group should in some part make up the Octarchs of PS or the  Vigesimi even.

And Annah\'s crusade against the newb guilds had something about a council...

Personally, I\'m thouroughly against it.

DepthBlade, if you aren\'t going to explain your posts, don\'t post here at all.  We have NEVER recruited anyone who was a member of another guild (unless one of our members is using an alt), so I would appreciate it if you would get your facts straight before you go corrupting our thread.  Thank you.   8)

The current state of the community is indeed a matter of concern for me, as well as for anyone else who sees Planeshift as something other than a spamming area.  I have not been on the forums recently, but many of the posts I have read have been spammed and argued into the ground.  This is UNACCEPTABLE, and I will have it known that nobody will be accepted in Mirth who has been involved in this corruption of the community as a whole.  

I hope that the community I remember will return once CB is out.  Perhaps it will help if people can vent their emotions somewhere other than these forums.   :D

Mirth is still active, recruiting, and Mirthful.  

Oh, and by the way, goaltender interference should be CALLED!  (I just wanted to add that on the off-chance that the refs for the Vancouver-Calgary series play PS.)  :D  GO CANUCKS GO!!!!   :)

Cheers   8)

The Exodus of Davis
« Reply #73 on: April 10, 2004, 06:52:11 am »
Well, please forgive my ignorance.  As I said in RedMonk\'s thread, I had absolutely no idea that Davis was shadowmancer.  I have just spoken to him, and he has voluntarily removed himself from Mirth Guild.  

Please do not see Davis\'s actions as a reflection on Mirth as a whole.  We do have NEVER considered it Mirthful to use an alt to gain information, and our new policy is that all spying is un-Mirthful.  Although the rest of Mirth had nothing to do with this, I am ashamed that one of our own has done this.  I offer my sincere apologies to Errion, as well as the rest of Shadowhand, and pledge that I will do my absolute best to rid Planeshift of the stagnation that has befallen it.

I remember what Planeshift used to be like.  Friendships were made, and kept.  Friendly and productive rivalries formed, and the group of people who are now known as \'oldbies\' joked and conversed with a positive air.  This, I think, is the true meaning of Mirth:  Not to eliminate the \'evil\' guilds, but to make a return to the atmospere that was enjoyed when I was a newbie.  To create a place where you can do what you like, but in a friendly way.  To make people play their roles for the sake of EVERYBODY\'s enjoyment...
 
To me, that is Mirth.   :)
