If you can’t, for whatever reason, then that’s all there is to it. Be here or don’t be here. If your life is too busy for NS, that’s perfectly fine and normal. This is a game. But our rules don’t need to bend over backwards and cater to people who can’t play the game.

You’re plenty active on Discord, by the way.

After playing NS for almost 15 years, and TSP specifically for the last decade, I know that people love to vote on things, but don’t care to do the work to participate beyond that. We need to do better. It’s that kind of stuff that led to us calling the GC in the first place. A quarter of “participants” didn’t even do the bare minimum of voting. They’re not participating, so they’re giving up their seat at the game table.

I would rather have a life and spend time with people who make me enjoy my time on this horrible game than spend hours wasting away debating with people who will never change their mind. I believe many share the same sentiment. I've learned not to take time for granted this past week. I'm not going to spend it here.
