What a bunch of absolute cow poo.

Pretty sure Rarebit can boot/ignore/exclude people at will, especially if they seem like they're counter-productive to whatever he's doing. I don't think there's rules saying he has to teleport someone, and a name that looks like someone randomly typed on the keyboard wouldn't be a likely canidate to RP with, wouldn't you think?

So how'd the meeting go? yeah! neh?

I liked it, it's wrapping up now. Answers were actually given instead of "lol wait for next week" in an RP-ish answer. Wasn't that big a *SILLY GROUP OF PEOPLE* as I thought it would, suprisingly calm and orderly.

EDIT: Drat, forgot /blowkiss ; /point :P

No. Look at your name, if I'm not a programmer I don't know what eval is then its just four random letters, so if the name is short and random it is acceptible but if it is long it is not? Calling cow poo on that argument.

Mine's within reason and more importantly, has vowels in it. Something along the lines of djkgnakgnhkankbnanr doesn't seem like any word I've ever seen before and seems like someone that would just cause trouble.

My characters name had vowels in it, why does vowels constitute a good RPer these days? And why does a handle have to be a word? B1T was accepted and they have no vowels in their name and is not a word.

so if i named a char twyndyllyngs i wouldnt be able to go as it has no vowels and where in the requirements to attend the meeting does it state anything about unapropriate names.  what if you were an alt on another server and got fed up of trying name after name just to be told it was already taken, we all know the problem with char names that alot of decent names are been taken up by perople whos accounts have been unsubbed since launch if you are going to exclude people for having random names free up some of the used names that have been unsubed for a considerable amount of time.  as it stands whats the difference between what he did and me having a char named ExternalError939238347473478

The name could be code?  The name could be anything.  The guy was there for the meeting and was ignored because of his name?  Even for Rarebit thats petty.  Then again, seemingly any argument would be petty when all odj wanted to do was be part of the meeting.  Heck AngelicDream got in with [quote]An EPN Spy[/quote] in her background details.  There is obvious cause for restriction to the meeting.

Everyone has alts for different orgs, be it soley for the missions or the full-blown RP that comes with it.  Since when did a name have anything to do with what the character can do?  Rarebit overstepped the mark here, no question.  The player wanted to go to the meeting as a Machine because that is what his Syntax alt is.  These meetings meant Odj had to create an alt on a server where his main is EPN.  That bias cost his Syntax alt (technically speaking) the org meeting he should have been part of.

Personally i would expect more creativity from a player that is dedicated enough to be interested in rolling a new character on a foreign server just to be able to attend a meeting. djkgnakghsaskaskfhadfg is not what i would call reative.

I was going to say something along these lines. Even that 'EPN Spy lolol' managed to create a reasonable alt for the purpose of RP. In my honest opinion when I saw djkawudhasdkjchnj I immediately thought trouble maker not taking an RP meeting seriously. But obviously it was Rare's decision.

Considering the characters are getting deleted after the meetings (as I am limited on alt spaces) there is no need for me them to be 'creative' with them.

Not all people who appear idiots are idiots, and not all people who appear intelligent are intelligent, you need to listen to them first. The character I created did not macro spam, did not emote spam, did not spout hate speach, did not do anything disruptive whatsover and yet was excluded.

Again, because Rarebit probably had a feeling that the character would cause some kind of trouble/would be counter-productive to the LE. Maybe if he feels like responding to it he can answer you himself, maybe you could of even PM'd him about it instead of posting in this thread.

EDIT: Oh! Was the character on an account that one of the EPN that were running around in the Tabor building? If so he probably snooped at their account to see what their alts were.

Indeed, in fact I don't think it will be too long before a Mod prunes this thread back on topic.

I could have but I was told by senior GM Brewko to post on these forums. No mention of a PM, posting was the appropriate action.

My topic is about the meeting, please direct me to a more appropriate thread.

He shouldn't pre-empt on gut feeling.  He has admin powers.  He could have kicked the character at any given time had he been a trouble-maker.  But no, he excluded Odj before a word even sprang from his mouth.  Just because someone has a feeling about something doesn't make them right.  The person first needs to do something to confirm the belief before action is taken.
