GAME CHANGE: Removal of past characters. | Started by: Squishy on Aug 17, '12 22:55 |
We have removed the ability to view your past characters in order to stop the new policy of some that require people to screenshot their past character names in order to get into a crew. To me this is akin to the stories that have been in the news about employers requiring your facebook password. This is a violation of privacy and I think it has gone a little too far. |

Prevent them to do it ingame, they will do it using IRC. Prevent tjem to do it on IRC, and they will do it using skype, MSN, FB or any other mean. I understand the logic behind and in fact, I totally agree with you, but at some point, I can only see the limits of such a politic. I'm afraid you won't be able to avoid such (stupid) behaviors (but that's only my opinion), as you can't control what people will do with their character.
I'm not sure what you are really trying to achieve there, probably just sending a clear message to the community, but still, the way the messahe is delivered is... quite annoying. |

Bummer. I liked comparing the work I put into my characters by the hours. It's more accurate than days. Oh well, one less nerd thing for me to get my kicks on. |

sheer brilliance, a change that is a must if it was being used to detriment, as is the case. I do like seeing my past, yet if its being abused, then im all for removing it. |

Why couldn't people just say, no I won't be sending you that, and then find a different less stupid family? |

Regrettable, but I understand why this is put in. hopefully this isn't a permanent solution. |
