    If you're privately talking about it with your friends, that's none of my business. What we want to avoid is a conversation about it in the Global channels, keep in mind that some kids might be playing and reading the chat.

    Thanks for your understanding.

    Imagine that.
    When you consider that mods are chosen from the player base, and that players on enough to effectively mod, are not always the best suited for the job, what can you expect? Certainly not the level of professionalism required to be impartial, logical, and fair.

Even 7 year olds take aspirin.

    As a former mod in 2 other games, I can say from experience that logic has to be applied to the rules. *When it becomes an issue, *then you step in, not before. Players do not want to be treated like 4 year olds, and chided for every little thing. That's the quickest way I know of to run people off.

    I submitted a ticket on this issue, and will await the response next week. Keep in mind tho, that the entire BB staff for this game is NEW.

    O think you are right. If one is not talking about medicine in an illegal way, then it should be o.k. I understand that it can lead in a wrong way but that should be up to the one talking in the wrong way should be in trouble. But I am not the administrator and understand their concerns too. But why do to private chat if youare being an adult. I feel for the administrators. To monitor all of us must be a drag.

    It seems sometimes the mod shows up gunning to make some bans then leaves.
