Today was the first meeting of the council, i will not go into details but suffice to say issues were discussed, one such issue being the entrance of bandit/pirate towns to the council, in which it was decided that certain towns, like Lindisfarne, were stopped.
So now the problem; due to this stopping of access, there were some players who may have felt discriminated against or secluded, as an admin team, although i can only speak for myself, i will apologise on behalf of All mods/admins present, as this was a mistake on our behalf, for it is our role to help the community and to support it, in allowing this motion to pass, we prevented this and may have also damaged the community, this should have been something that was not allowed to happen, and i sincerely apologize for our lack of action
To alvice: As the new mayor of Lindisfarne, you were one of the players who this action prevented attending, i apologize for any feelings of seclusion that you felt, and will also say that against the vote, if you wish to attend the meetings of the council, you and any of your town are welcome to join. i know this may anger some of those who wanted to stop their attendance for rp reason but i wish to restore some faith for this section of our community.
To Steel and Cherbert: you took personal offence to the seclusion of specific towns, and i will apologize directly to you two also, you gave us responsibilities when assigning our ranks, and it seems that on this occasion we have let you down, as stated above, we should not have allowed this motion to pass due to its OOC consequences, the most i can offer you in payment of this mistake is my sincerest apologies and the promise that i (i cant speak for others here ) will personally be more vigilant to stop any future incident in the nature of today.
To Bellon: I do not wish for you to think that i am against you in your debate, you had a valid point when saying that the council is only an rp event, i do not know if you were to engrossed in the council at the time to perhaps think of any OOC consequences of allowing the motion to pass, please do not take this as a personal attack against you and i honestly do see where you were coming from, but like me and others, you are a member of the admin team and we should have known to stop what was happening, even if it was in the guise of an rp.
And finally, an apology to any other members of our community who felt hard done by during this meeting, and i hope that we can put this incident behind us and stay as a whole community, if ever in the future you feel like an issue similar to this comes up again (and i hope i can prevent it if it ever does) please do not hesitate to get into contact with me so we can resolve any issues together.
Thank you for taking the time to read this (long) apology..
sincerely
