Lady Jas had a technical malfunction with her mouse that resulted in her getting three false accusations (one of the perils of using a laptop computer). A lot of good people have rallied around her, but she has just lost a detective with oversix million xp.

I realise that there are many who know Lady Jas better, but I would just like to lend my support to a request for having her detective re-instated. Please feel free to add your condolences and support below.

Thankyou.

Jas! No! I'm so sorry this happened! I think she should definitely be reinstated! It's just not going to be the same without her here. Jas honey, if there's anything I can do to help -- just let me know ok?

How horrible!!!
In an attempt to look on the bright side, maybe having to make a new detective can be fun? Many ppl have gotten bored with the game because the more experience the less challenges.
I can see how making an exception here can raise many eyebrows, especially with those who do not know Jas as well as others, creating a problem of double standards for Admin.
But perhaps, with the support of fellow Sleuthers, you can be up and running in no time. A gift subscription perhaps, donations in Sleuth money, Villain hunt gear, or even an apartment! I hope these suggestions can ease your pain.
Come back with a vengeance and kick ass Jas!

Ohh, so sorry to hear what happened, Jas, what a stupid technical malfunction and with such a horrible result. One way or the other I'll be rooting for your swift return :)

Lady Jas, I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. I know it can be difficult to start over again. I've done it myself with a 5 month old detective, she wasn't much younger than you are! Thankfully we have a very supportive group here. :)

It wasn't so long ago that we had another great and loved detective retire as well. With the love and help of the community, we were able to help her get back on her feet, emotionally as well as hitting the streets of Sleuth again.

If I can assist in your rebuilding, please let me know. I'm glad to see that you are still playing and working toward new things!

I am sorry to hear about the loss of Jas.

If her detective was retired due to a technical malfunction, I agree that she should be reinstated. I support the petition to reinstate her.

The problem with reverting a retirement due to technical malfunction is we have no way of proving when the user is telling the truth. We already get people who say they were retired because their cat jumped on the keyboard, or their little brother was using their account, etc. While each of those situations may in fact be true, we can't tell when they are and when they're not.

So, unless we make a permanent change to how retirements are handled, I'm not sure how we can fairly reinstate jas.

Would a change in policy be considered? When someone retires their detective due to real technical issues, pets, pesky siblings, etc it is heartbreaking. What about a "one time chance" to have your agent re-instated. With 2 FAs . If it happens a second time.. then no petitions or reinstatments.

Maybe a way of being reintroduced "on probation" for detectives more than a certian number of days old with reliable excuses (honor system). For those detectives, shady will charge double normal, and take half of what they earn for the next year...
