Yesterday I logged into another board, one that I play on, to find that not only had someone abused the trust of a friend of mine to log into his account. (Foolish on his part to not have changed the password, but that is beside the point) but they had abused the admin privileges on that account in order to promote this board through global PMs to its players.
I am mildly offended by using tactics of sabotage to try to snare players from that game for this one. Perhaps if you had advertised on that board like anyone else or even struck up a congenial conversation with the players of that board or posted to one of the general ooc boards what you had to say I might have considered joining this board. It is a neat premise yes, but IMHO I wouldn't want to associate myself with people who would behave in such a manner.
What is particularly offensive is the fact that the person who ran Masquerade left that game in the hands of someone else after he said he could no longer run it. To then turn around and outwardly criticize the game (after a few days no less when nothing has actually changed as of yet) and suggest the board is dead and that players should go somewhere else is immature, contemptible behavior.
I'm not saying that Masquerade is necessarily going to pull out of its slump. It might not, but under the circumstances, kicking someone while they're down is very poor form.
Sincerely,
Becca
