[b]An apology. [/b] This is long overdue. Clearly this posts tardiness has resulted in many friends, or as an old bird once said, "brothers," leaving us. These new absences are at the fault of us. The lieutenants. The lieutenants, and this includes me, have made some VERY AWFUL DECISIONS. This month especially. The way we banned Lego as an easy solution was pure bull shit. And the amount of People that have been turned away is also insult to injury. Lieutenants of the dojo are required to uphold the law of the dojo. The rules. But when the rules are so damn broken, and vague and have never been changed, we are just a bunch of guys with sticks too far up our asses. This is why we need a reform. The rules must be changed, updated. The Thread needs to be updated. Such things include... >Testing >Banning >plots >the thread itself >Lieutenants >what the dojo really is. >and everyone's favourite, God modding. I will not include everything in this post. I will go over each topic in a separate post. But, now I must say some words. Some of the best people I have known have left the dojo today. This is a result of the lieutenants decisions. Hell, my decisions. Ever since I started work this month I have not been able to really assist in...Anything! This is my fault. It's my fault for not being here for you guys. And I'm so...so sorry. Hasty decision making and stupid solutions to problems have resulted in you guys leaving. And that's on me. The dojo is a place about freedom and creativity! Yet lately to achieve that I have only made it the opposite. Change will happen. I can give you my absolute word on that. I hope these next posts of revisions will give you hope for the future. I am sorry for everything. I'm sorry for ruining your experiences. That's not what the dojo should be. And neither should I be.
