i have been here as a paying subscriber ( under various names ) for 1, 713 days.

this site has issues ( first i think will be moderated off right away which is an issue ).

the site errs when they invite new players and give them no development. the city of new york should be a place where a free player can do all things ( join an agency in new york without a subscription..chase archcriminals in new york , etc. ). the other cities and such would be left to subscribers.

there is also a culture of the cognoscente here...those who are "in" seem to control not only content but act as a cultural barrier to conversation and ideas ( not my way so shut up newbie )

their is favoritism... i had a cat avatar and an "insider mod" sent me a message that i had to change it..yet others have non-1920ish avatars and they remain...

admin also errs when one loses a detective ( three errors ) and then does not allow a transfer of the paid subscription to move to a new detective.

there is more but i already feel the press of the delete button in the hands of the "moderators"..

Actually, this entire thread could be deleted, even now, with all the replies. Everything would just... disappear. The moderators chose not to delete this thread; not in the very beginning when it was first posted, and not now.

As long as the thread does not degenerate into hot-headed, childish name-calling and inappropriate statements. So please don't go there.

LOL!
I think the history of Sleuth shows that ideas are generally judged on their merits and not so much on who is presenting them. Take the case of Nephi for example. He has been around a long time, under various different user names, and came up with some very unpopular ideas that were criticised by players who had a vested interest in the game; however he did come up with the idea for the "Sleuthetania" and voila - a good idea gets included in the game. I think that is a fairly good example of how this game and admin are not biased towards people, especially since he was openly critical of the game, admin, subs benefits... you know, one of those people who always knows better?
I'm just sayin.
