It's a lot less hot than anything anyone who really had fiery feelings against AO would write (based on his ideas in the other thread, I'm guessing Unibot thinks it isn't harsh enough - and I admit, I probably would have written something with a different tone). I think this is as tame and IC as a repeal of AO's commendation will get, which is probably a good thing in the long run.

The author, you'll note, is also the OP, and probably does not want her thread loaded with such off-topic bitterness from players whose emotional investment in this game has clearly reached unhealthy levels. Just sayin'.

They're a bunch of talented players who could do a lot for the General Assembly, but they prefer to sit back and call my colleagues names and run their little clubs. The best way to teach new players is to do it by example, and while they have made great examples in the past to look up, its not a participatory example.. new players don't know what it was like to be in a drafting thread for those great resolutions that AO have passed, they just know the result of the drafting.. thats why any newbie knows a good resolution when he sees one, but has no means to draft one 'himself' (drafting takes a lot of talented people). They're one of the most active players in the game, and yet they seem to want to pretend like they're on 'retirement' or something.

Some of whom were recruited illegally out of player-created regions. But I guess that's one of those triffling matters, sort of like WA multiing, that's only wrong when you get caught at it, eh?
Have you considered *not* making passive-aggressive swipes against AO whenever you encounter IC opposition from one of our nations? And let's not lay the blame for newer players delaying their authorship at the feet of AO. If one looks at the resolutions making it to vote, most of them contain the most legalistic language I've seen outside of an actual binding contract. Whether that is good or bad is debatable, but we're not the ones who insist that ages of majority are likely to be set to 0.
Also, we're not the types to rewrite a proposal that needs work, clause by clause. I'd much rather see the original author muddle through it to "get" what makes a proposal good than spoon feed it to every newbie who walks through the door.
maybe it's because we're busy IRL

AO has their own way of going about things and they've earned respect from most of the old hands that use to be around before this *waves hands around the SC* came about. When these halls were built, a lot of people left and a lot of people joined. The new guys outnumber the vets and the way business gets carried out has changed as well.
