You certainly can have and state your opinion Molly but telling someone to quit for part of a game you think should be cancelled just seems odd. How has kesh ever impacted your life?

Whenever I read something that Kesh wrote, it's alienating, arrogant, demanding and way out of line. That is hardly contributing in a constructive way. I think he acts like an asshole and yes, I wouldn't mind to not ever read anything again coming from him. That is my opinion about his forum appearance and that is all I have to go by. And since this is a forum, it's all I need to know.
I couldn't care less if he's the nicest guy on Earth in real life. That's simply not relevant in here.
Same for Strategus. In my opinion, it's a great idea which simply doesn't work, at all. All it brought was drama, cheaters, abusive behaviour and more drama. Granted, some drama was entertaining but overall, nothing of value came ever out of Strat... that's how I see it.
And I'd rather see the devs spend time on their future product then wasting time beating this dead horse.
And all this is my personal opinion, completely unrelated to my "position" - if you can even call it that - as Event manager. I'll treat everyone the same during an event in my responsibility, even Kesh. Same for anything I use my admin rights on the server for. I am impartial in everything I do "officially". If you doubt that, please make a thread about it somewhere and ask the higher ups to investigate.
Though it's beyond me why anyone with half a brain would even mix that up. Strategus is no event, I am in no way related to that, not my business in any way. As a player, I think it's "not good".
As long as there is Strategus, I'll say that it's not working and should simply stop. As long as Kesh acts like a gigantic asshole, I'll tell him and everyone else.
