New Base of Operations...?

[Blake Worship]

I don't want to sound like a defector or anything, but has anyone here thought having our site hosted by Wrassle?

I know that Scotty has been working on a new and improved site, but I figure this might be easier on all of us who want it but may possibly be tired of the wait.

Nothing about the fed would have to change, and it would be a sure fire to inject some small level of new talent into the fed. Not to mention I'm sure there are a number of old RW men and women possibly still floating about Wrassle, with some advertisements we could draw them into REW, which has proven the much better replacement for the original RW, as opposed to RW 2.0, and I would know because I was once there.

It wouldn't even have to be permanent, if Scotty still has his sights set on creating a fresh fed. But it could be a slight welcome upgrade in the meantime, and it could be a nice change of pace to ring in the new year...

Just voicing some random thoughts while I wait for results to go up... damn you Caius, by the way...

Absolutly not. Anything but Wrassle.

I will not be able to be around if we have to move to Wrassle...and frankly I don't see why the move is necessary.

Burnt is one of the worst people I've ever had to deal with in the Efed world and I'd rather see us ANYWHERE but Wrassle.

Then again, I'm not really important here so do what u guys feel is right, but I'm just giving my input.

Also, Burnt' money grubbing ways allow no customization of your character unless you pay up. That's right. Burnt will throw you out of the game if you use an image to reflect your character unless you pay up. Paying for a text based game? I don't think so.

I understand where you coming from Blake about getting more talent to come though REW and you are right Wressle do have a lot of people there. but the last time i was in WDN i ended up arguing with one of the staff there over them screwing me out of a match that i clearly won. in the event of that i got banned from the site, plus they didn't like my protest against making people pay to play lol

[Fallen One]

Yeah no doubt, I was in Wrassle a long time ago, before they went pay to play when they were just starting out and Burnt didn't take too kindly to my dislike of the new pay to play scheme. Plus they are WAAAAY too dependent on the sim. One reason I dig in REW is that there's no sim to screw you over (or help you out). RW's sim was okay though. But the getting more people IS a good point and a good idea, I just dont think Wrassle is the right path.

Besides, Burnt has so much control in Wrassle in the fact that if one day he and Scotty or he and any of our staff have a disagreement, and boom, he'll turn over the fed to someone else. I see your good intentions, but Wrassle is just absolutely awful imo.

[jonnycorrigan]

Hmm.. Never heard of this Wrassle you speak of...

Well I can see why changing boards would be appealing, I mean... proboards itself does suck (although REW rocks). But... my experience with trying to change boards with an e-fed is pretty dark and depressing. The one I was in that tried to do that had 70+ active members, and once they put the board up none of those members, for some reason, thought it necessary to join again. So, that's one con of changing boards, from my experience.

First off Fallen one, we don't think of anyone around here as someone who doesn't matter. Everyone is an important part of this fed, and we value all of your opinions. Secondly I have my own qualms about Wrassle and I don't think it would be a good move to go there with REW. They control too much of the politics for us to go there and remain independent. Maybe we need to think of some way to advertise and go with that. I agree that we need to get more talent, but like most have said I think Wrassle is the wrong choice.

[Blake Worship]

Just about all the reservations about Wrassle one could expect to hear have been voiced, I think.

Indeed, the idea of paying to play ANYTHING, let alone an online RP game is ludicrous to me, and I have been turned off to their fed ever since. Well, I was never in Wrassle, but my bro was, for those of you who know who I mean. Not The Icky, but ICky.

Anyway, I fully believe now that there are perhaps some nuances to their system to their game that I am not aware of, and being one of the people with probably some of the least experience with them, I will gladly take you all on good authority. Kudos to their advertisers for nearly sucking me into their huge all-encompassing web.

And frankly, any fed that Scotty Raven of all people isn't welcome in just isn't a fucking fed I want to be apart of. Enough said.

Forgetting about that other place now, how's about we all as a fed and not just 4 members of staff put our noggins together and brainstorm ideas to make REW rock even harder than it already does...? Perhaps starting from square one and talking to people we know in other feds to get them to try the REW experience? Anyone...?

[Scotty Raven]

I'm open to listen to any thing that you guys want to input in to REW... The way i see it a fed that playes together stays together, even to this day with all the other feds out there i truly believe that REW is the best, it's not because i made it but because etch and every one of you made it what it is today, and i agree we should get our heads together and make every one see that REW is the best fed and the best place to be.

[jaysonray]

I agree with Scotty yo. I actually have a couple of ideas but don't mind your residential phantom of the locker-room.

[caiusturner]

Okay Jayson you have a couple of ideas, lets hear them.
