it was NOT the community.. it was a very small handful
I didn't really wanna post in this thread again, but...
I'd still like to know who it was who accused her of wintrading and such...having opinions is fine but privately bothering her about repeatedly it is something different altogether. Was it at least a member we know is a member and not some new signups that're probably trolls/her opponents/past arena partners that did it just to grief her/start drama?
She has a blog to defend herself with/on as well...and could have just PM'd these people back. Was a public post necessary? Maybe, who knows. THE POINT IS IT IS DONE. If one of you wants to do something about it, track her down and ask her to come back and ignore the fools who pissed her off. DO something about it, you all can /sign all you want, petitions never get a damn thing done, action does :P Go get her! You're supposed to chase after a woman when she runs out on you anyways, lol, not sit there and argue with your friends about it
If she wants an apology...I'll apologize for my profanity, but not for my views, because they are mine damnit :P She doesn't like my views that's fine, that's her views and she can have 'em too. Doesn't mean she has to abandon the rest of you :p
Maybe because Vyn has done more to champion our cause with Blizzard and clarify and confirm that what we do is legal, and draw clean cut lines that we need to stay within to remain legal, than anyone else that I know of.Quote:

What Xzin is to hardware boxing Vyndree is to the politics lobby of boxing.
This is what is boils down to guys...
If it is legal and has been confirmed legal by the game producers, makers, game reps or whatever, your views on it to be right or wrong are not welcome.
It's the same whole debate that normal Warcraft players have with multi boxers, even tho multi-boxing it's legal people moan on "moral grounds", "game not designed to for it" and/or "its not fair".
The arguments highlighted are irrelevant, legal is legal if people were or were not doing it.
All I am interested is what is NOT LEGAL and the people who post and exercise these nonlegal antics.
This is not JUST MY OPINION, its the facts, deal with it.
Vyndree for president :)V
I joined this community (actually signed up got involved, got interested etc) because of her so its rather a bummer she is not here now ;(
So even though I have never had direct communications with her add me to the IWVB crew
Patch 2.4.2: Personal Rating requirements being added to S4. If your Personal Rating is not within 150 of the Team Rating, your games and points awarded will be based on your rating instead of the Team's rating. And a few other changes, all designed -specifically- to discourage/stop Team selling. People can still sell SPOTS I suppose and drag their personal rating up, but yeah, the "game producers/devs" seem to be showing via actions they're not all that pleased with it either :pQuote:

Concurred. She and so many others here inspired me to actually start this. I was excited to see that another fellow female gamer was so involved in something I was so excited to become a part of. I do hope that she comes back. /signQuote:

there is nothing to debate. this thread was not your thread to discuss YOUR subject.. it was a good will thread asking a beloved member to rejoin because we missed HER, not you.
but you decided to jump in and hijack it to continue your, oh so brilliant crusade. brilliant.
Eteocles, have some balls and go to the wow forums and discuss it. it does not belong here.

As it grows, any online community is going to become less organized. It also becomes more varied, and that part is almost always good. But with growth you inevitably come to a point where your site owner/admin has to lay down some ground rules and enforce them. I certainly do not envy anyone that task, having been a moderator and administrator for a few years (at a board that grew from a handful of people to well over 1000 registered visitors a day). It is often an unfun and seemingly thankless job, but the more diligent you are, the quicker the community will fall in line.Quote:

Actually Rob the whole thing started simply because someone had no idea Vyndree had left or why; it was explained why and then someone took it as restirring the drama and it turned into this. As I said in my last post, I'm done; views are views, Blizz is stopping teamsellers, and unless someone has the balls to go DO something about it instead of sit here signing repeatedly, Vyndree is gone unfortunately.
You're not exactly being a shinig example yourself reacting angrily to these posts, locking threads, deleting posts and flipping us off; get off yer high horse and keep your similarly-inflammatory opinions(and fingers) to yourself if you want us to do the same.
AGAIN: THIS DEBATE IS OVER. Keep signing for what good it'll do till someone actually volunteers to tell her we miss her and show her the thread as proof :P DO NOT POST ANY MORE REPLIES THAT CONTAIN ANYTHING, -ANYTHING- related to this bullshit, it is OVER, ONLY post if it's related directly to having Vyndree back, period.
