Alright, over the course of two weeks much has happened, and I'm wondering why we're still in this situation where we have to carousel power from one to another and since this is ending up as a stand still I'll be the first one to make a move and say it here and now since this is like a circus of bonobo's.
What is being done right now?
We still have no word as to who will be the next owner of Sandbox, and it seems like it's being delayed as much as possible for someone to keep their power as it's been baton passed to them. It's concerning that Merlot passed the powers to someone who has had their power evicted from in the past, and shouldn't have had them passed down when there are clearly better contestants that are faithful to this Lobby.
[The Mod Team]
How long will it take, it shouldn't be this long..
I can see where you want to find the best contestants to bestow the power of this Lobby upon, but this is getting less and less believable that you truly want to give a respectable person power, delaying this process is getting more and more suspicious as it seems someone wants to stay in power with their little group. We want a date now as of who will be chosen and don't say you dare say, "I'm still deciding."
EDIT/TLDR: What was going on?
We want results, do something!

We, the people of Sandbox want results and not excuses.
i think the biggest problem is fewer interesting peope on em now than in the past
even if you have just as many people, interesting people will always make things feel more alive

I know you're not posting anymore but it's not Paru's job to convince you to not be islamphobic towards him, it's simply expected to have some level of moral decency. Don't put him at fault when he simply doesn't want it shoved in his face constantly by people who are just here to "play fu cking mafia"

are u implying im a grown up or that we arent friends, cub?
the main lobby forums are basically dead and despite there being basically the same amount of people signing up for comp rounds as there was last year the site feels a lot emptier
less personalities
i dont think im any less active or viewing things via rose tinted goggles either
If you think imposing your will on people by censoring their opinion, because you feel vindicated by your own self-righteousness isn't full blown fedora tipping edgelord mode, i don't know what to tell you.

i like your post ben, its very thoughtful and empathetic
i tell people to be less sensitive and a friend tells me to never talk to him again. yikes. I would be miserable if i let every homophobic remark personally offend and affect me. I don't let it affect me because it does not help anyone in any way.
if someone gets banned for hate crime it doesn't change their beliefs
a lecture on how much of a bigot they are doesnt change their beliefs
a person interacting with and getting to know the person they hate, can absolutely change their beliefs.
now im going to stop posting before i burn any more bridges
how is banning people for racism the equivalent to "us running away"
they came to us, expressed they were racist, and then they were made to leave, open and free to come back anytime they wanted to stop trying to ostracize others who were already here for simply existing as they are
Lets go back to the ~Privately Owned Website~ topic here.
what benefits the ~Privately Owned Website~ more; allowing a handful of edgelords to run out a huge fraction of the community to protect their freeze peach
or,
enacting policies that allow anyone regardless of their race or religion to enjoy their time here without worry of being discriminated against or run out by groups of toxic players with no respect?
im not asking for your opinion on whats "right" here, im certain you think its the former, im just asking you which one better allows the community to grow, live on and sustain itself
