Verdo has been a consistently polite player with a positive attitude as long as I have known him.
He should make an outstanding GM.
Unless he turns to the dark side and we have to torture him with thumb screws for all eternity...

This is a no brainer....I voted YES!

No, sorry, he only view of the world is pretty slated.

To make sure this is not about...

Yes, he does consider homosexuality to be a sin, which I am cool with.

BUT

I don't consider this cool.

He supports botting, strike one.

There is no rule ever, on this server, that forbid people from monster killing. If he is going to get mad over people not breaking the rules, strike two.

His behavoir in the game has not been very gm like, he has a tenancy to get resort to name calling when you really try to talk to him about serous topics. But I am very good at making people resort to name calling.

But, I can be changed, please explain how as a gm, you would enforce the rules when you admit you support botting? How are you going to not let your prejudices get in the way of being gm? You cant do it now, how is this going to change? If you are going to get mad about someone follow you around, how in the hell are you going to keep your cool with you have the power to enforce your own rules?

That is what really makes me vote no. He was made about a player monster stealing and he could not report it to a gm. He wanted a gm to do something about them, which is what delaisa would do for him.

Lastly, you where part of the Olde Archer Fellowship which openly posted very hateful information on the web. As part of this group, you had a "people we hate and need to do something about". The group and website, which has been taken down, made personal threats against alot of people, including some very abusive hate speech. The group encourage your members to single out, abuse, and rip off anyone on that list. Why would you openly take part in this group?

You can change my mind, I, unlike you, can be convinced you changed. But you need to proved proof, you have changed

I kind of agree with your statements darkwater but those posts were a year to a year and a half old...I'm very sure that he has changed since then.

Dark water not dark wind.

Which is why I am asking him. People do change, people do make mistakes, and god knows I am a poster child for making mistakes.

BUT in his own words:
Verdo wrote:How is it a mistake that BBB got onto other ppls accounts? a mistake is when somebody didnt mean to do what they did. but BBB meant to get on to others accounts and knew that it was wrong and knew the consequences to his actions and therefor should be punished for them. And what about the other ppl that got banned for hacking and other stuff? if BBB gets unbanned there gonna think that its unfair.

BBB u still get to make new chars, so theres ur second chance to start over and be a better person and earning the ppls forgiveness by proving u have changed.
The bold is mine. He wants to be gm, ok. But he has not earned forgiveness as he demands out of other people. Just trying to place the disconnect between the two people.

Never in my year and half in tmw have i heard verdo name calling. Also are you saying people in tmw dont name call? the gms dont name call? nobodys perfect and ive witnessed myself gm's saying innapropriate things.

A group? i have never even heard of it, even if it was true it was a very long time ago and shouldnt be carried as a weight. abuse? rip people off? if anything he gives money, items and armor to other people who need it and helps them. i have never seen verdo abuse players.


Good luck verdo!

If you are at the keyboard, you are not botting. Can't believe I have to say that.

Which is just the kind of logic I love out you, you quote him actually admitting he called a person a name, and say he never does it. Just priceless.

I have been abused by him personally, but that has nothing to do with this. He was a part of a group that openly used hate speech. You know, the kind of hate speech that the KKK would use.

Just want him to sort this stuff out.

Hello, DarkWater.

1. You can't really judge someone from posts over one year old because they may have changed, unless, there are resent posts of that person still acting the same way.

They were mistakes, and I have learned from them.

2. Please tell me when I have called you or anyone else names (besides that one post you already showed) because I can't remember.

As for the Olde Archer Fellowship, look at 1.

And, how may I prove to you that I have changed since then?

Anyone who has played (actively) for a while knows that verdo would be a great GM and he has my vote.
Negative comments of Darkwater are one more reason to vote for him. :)

well...

i can only say it is a good thing everyone gives his opinion

i voted yes

imho verdo has always been in the game as an active player part of the comunity playing fair and friendly with everyone.

i need to say some other things:
- personal consideration should be taken off the topic
- verdo's evolution in terms of positionning himself in the game has been going in the right way to have him on the right track of being a gm

so it would be a pleasure to see his name in green when the times comes for him

Sincerly yours tmw comunity
