It seems to me that lately there have been new agents joining agencies to steal their equipment.

Is there a way to allow agents to "borrow" agency equipment, but at the time that they quit, the equipment is returned to the owning agency? The only equipment they can take is the one the came with.

I play another rpg, they are able to do this there. If the agency wants to give the member equipment, they simply unclick the "agency item" button. This is done by a director of the team.

I think Chron’s Director’s Lounge idea is a good one.

I probably will regret doing this, but I have created a password protected offsite board where Directors may post concerns about agents and other matters.

Hopefully, this will limit the amount of public (and sometimes inaccurate) assertions made against relatively new players who may have made a simple mistake. I fear such public threads may deter new players. In addition, those detectives that are plundering agencies will not necessarily know that most Directors have their name. Therefore, they may be less inclined to create new detectives, retreat into anonymity, and start the process over again.

I invite any Director of an agency with over 2,000 Fame to pm me and I will send the URL for the site. Registration will require an e-mail address.

I fully expect that not everyone will be pleased with this idea. If so, please feel free to contact me directly or post your complaints. I don’t want to affect the community spirit of the game, but as was pointed out, we must deal with the occasional troublemaker. This will just take less of our time to do so.

I think that a player initative like this is a good way of handling things. Thank you for volunteering Logan.

That is a great idea Logan. A director only chat room would help alot.

Ah, it seems good ideas are like plants, they just need time to take root to blossom! :-) Logan, that's a fine idea, even if it isn't here on Sleuth. Count me in!

I like the idea of a Director only chat room. However, I would caution to be careful on what could and could not be posted there, as many could take it as "talking behind their backs" without hearing their side of the story.

Great idea!

Calalta, I want to thank you again for finding my original proposal for the D.O. Lounge. I just looked at it and saw it's dated Aug. 27th 2004. Over 2 years! I can't imagine how many problems could have been avoided in those 2 years had something been done to make that a reality, but I do hope the current active directors do take advantage of the Chatroom that Logan Creed put together. It's long overdue, but better late than never! Great work Logan Creed!
