    Of course I'll abide by the rules, and it does show a great amount of honor on your part, But after the whole Wiki Debacle, I'm not sure i would have been so forgiving. Still, You took the high road, and that is something I can respect.

    I have the same concern, but it's not so much about forgiving as it is about leaving the option for discussion for the boxing community so as not to ostracize people. It's a change to benefit multiboxers, not a change to benefit a program.

    Personally, my tolerance for anything that starts to resemble the BS from then is going to be at zero. This is about an informative community, not an invitation to start or perpetuate flame wars.

    I'm right there with you Khatovar!

    This change won't lessen our rules that we have in place for moderating this community. If BS starts it will get taken care of. Stick to topics, discuss with facts, and avoid the flame wars and this community will continue to grow positively.

    People will have their strong opinions on topics and thats fine, just keep it in line.

    Note: This in no way means we will moderate and delete topics that contain positive or negative views on any software in use. We aren't here to push people one way or the other, everyone is entitled to choose whatever they want to box the game they are playing.

    I can understand why they had decided not to allow discussion of certain people and software here. I like the decision to allow it now and I think it reinforces the idea that the community and what we do comes first.

    You might think of the current rules change as an expiration of a one-year ban for malicious/inflammatory conduct by the Pwnboxer folks. We'll see how things go now that the topic is open for discussion again.

    I see nothing but problems.


    /puts on tin foil hat

    Its pretty easy to see that there is/was an alternate motive besides just being to talk about pwnboxer now. Me thinks Lax had financial incentive and or DB.com from pwnboxer ? hmm... nah

    Only time will tell when we see a pwnboxer tab that links to his site at the top of DB. Did it cost extra for ISboxer to have "Premium MMORPG Boxing software" in its title as opposed to Keyclone?

    I am probably way off base though in my thinking.

    I don't see why having financial incentives creates some conspiracy. Site has to run and pay for itself doesn't it? And it was time to finally bury the hatchet on a long winded feud and open up this community for more dialogue on all the alternatives in the multiboxing world. There aren't many so why not really become a hub for all to freely discuss?

    It's just gaming, I think we can put the tin foil hat away.

    Cool, DB.com is getting paid or got made an offer by pwnboxer and that is the real reason for this change. Well I just wish you guys would have just come out and said that instead of saying "its just good for the mutiboxing community to discuss all platforms" bullshit. As the change to the members is at best a byproduct of DB.com getting paid. Yay! for us, thanks for thinking about the DB community.

    While I think its fine that DB.com can get paid to off set their costs. I think it was total fucking bush league the way it was explained . I was born, but it wasn't yesterday.
