I think shady is a great idea for controling how well people play. But on the other hand "unsolvable" cases and human error can cause fauls acusations way to easy. I think shady should be changed for this reson. How you ask?

I think the cost should be lowered. I found myself not being able to do any cases for weeks having my agency back me on money till I could pay him off. All because of two cases were evry clue pointed to a certain person but the case said I was wrong. I spent so much money on bribes for those cases just to find out those bribes were worthless.??? Thats not right.

Also I think as your skill level incresis so should the amount of false acusations your alowed.

Fellow Sluethers, what do you think?

Amarantha,
I should have posted here after you apologised. I am sorry.
I do think Amartha had a good point.. I did know that this post would be dug up.
I also understand why she was upset and angry.
It took guts for her to post what she thought and it also took guts to apologize. I have no issues with Amarantha.

Ok, here go my 2 cents.
Sorry to LED for losing your detective. I know you must feel horrible, losing something you invested so much time in is very heartbreaking. I wish you luck with your new detective.

I would like to add that Amarantha has not logged into Sleuth for almost 3 months, we know someone has been using her detective, but we have not been able to find out who.

However, I do agree that only certain people are allowed to voice their opinions on the boards. Why you ask?? Because it seems that everytime someone posts a new idea to improve the game, if you are not in a "certain circle" the idea gets attacked by the "in circle". Which is why I try to avoid reading & posting on the message boards.

As for this post, Aviles, was very hurt by LED's comment about "sucking it up." He quit playing this game, because he felt he was being treated like an idiot for expressing his opinion.

So, while I know that CFM wants to help her friend, I think the mention of it on the Public Boards was out of line. It seems to me to go against what LED herself and many others liked about Sleuth.

OK what is this "In Circle"????

I keep hearing about this and as I am on good terms with everyone in Sleuth for the most part, I resent the idea that there are ppl who think not everyone is welcoming.....

I am relatively new here, not even half a year yet, and every single person I have had dealings with has been nothing but nice to me and very welcoming....if I can get into this "inner circle" so easily, why is it apparently so difficult for everyone else????

Everyone on sleuth has a right to be part of the community, which is the only circle I care about

Well Biggie, possibly you have fit in so well with the "in circle" because you are a conformist and do not go against the grain.

All you need to do is look up posts that promote new ideas or offer suggestions to see how they are responded to by the "in circle".

SAL2 I resent the implication. I disagree with the so-called "In Circle" all the time, and they like me just fine...

If you have some sort of a problem with me, I would hope you would PM me privately to discuss it, since I have never spoken to either you or Della in the entire time I've been on here and you clearly don't know me very well if you think I some sort of a follower....

I just think your comment was slightly uncalled for being that you've never even spoken to me.

:(

((Dang Villian hunt...I did it again))

Okay guys. I think we all understand the points you are making. Can we please let it die here so we don't lose another chunk of Sleuth history?

So now the boards have evolved past targetting people who speak up too haphazardly, and now there are targets on people who get along with other players?

This is why I'm a shadow on the boards. Sad.
