Hello,

With the recent events brought upon the box of sand, I've decided we need a Senior Council of Sandbox to assist with the addressing of ongoing conflicts within Sandbox/EpicMafia. This will not include other lobbies specifically for the time being.

Requirements of Membership:

  • Have an account created in 2013 or earlier (2012, 2011, 2010)
  • Be unbiased and mature
  • Be active
  • Meme when necessary

What do you get?

  • A black robe and staff
  • Advising powers over the Sandbox/EpicMafia community and it's "drama"

Comment below if you have ideas/want to become a member.

Community Discussion Thread: https://epicmafia.com/topic/92239

Is this a good idea?

They call me Penguin Soprano.


But in all seriousness, can we start/continue discussing real problems?


i think if you want a serious discussion you should start from a new perspective, the focus on age of account won't go anywhere productive. maybe open another post allowing anyone to drop by and voice their thoughts on stuff in a respectful unbiased way? the rules on the site have to be in the best interest of everyone, not just us old losers. i think it's a good idea to lead a nice measured discussion on some issues people have been bringing up, as opposed to people discussing it during the chaos of sandbox games.

Decent idea, but I want the community to be able to openly discuss issues that are ongoing within the community.

I like your vision, however, I think we are starting from the bottom of the barrel here in terms of relevance, and users actually being open to our ideas and opinions. Perhaps, for now, we can leave our discussions here. I can also always close off the topic discussion to anyone outside of the list, but I think that defeats the point of having open conversation with the community, let alone helping solve issues within the Sandbox realm. For now, I also believe we should start with Sandbox and it's issues/daily dramas. Main is a whole other sector of the site that I am very unfamiliar with.


I am open to removing moderators from the group. What do the other council members think? I also believe Grace doesn't want to be here for the right reasons as per her last comment haha

In regards to this council: I regretfully submit I'd like to be removed from the council.

In my years here, it has been my stance to avoid participating in drama, and actively turning away from it wherever possible. When I signed up, I thought this would be a meaningless silly club that us old time players could hang out in and have a sense of camaraderie, but apparently the notion of such a thing has ruffled a lot of feathers, and that is not something I want to be part of.

I have been a proud member of epicmafia since 2010. That doesn't make me any better or worse than anyone else, and while I do not believe this club was ever declaring it was, people are getting that impression, so I tender my resignation.

Best of luck to your counsel, I wish you the best.


Sorry to see you go. :(

for the record in all seriousness i also think the year on your account means next to nothing. i do like being on lists though. if we actually do want to seriously approach site issues in an unbiased way we definitely can't focus on something arbitrary like age of account.

outside of all seriousness, don't be mad cuz new

for real i'm just here to flex my year, i don't think sandbox needs a council of elders, but i do think it's not a bad idea to open the floor to have discussions on how users feel improvements can be made. ALL users. i love all of u tho especially the penguin who threw me my robe
