All in all -shrudders- I understand what Hael is saying but agree with Vinny.
We don't really have a community... We have the potential for one but as of right now there are too many varying interest/egos/ideas of what should be the norm to yet be a community.
There is no common among us ...yet.
I think that is what made early HoH so successful. Levistad was actually a well established community composing of enough core members to hold a tournament and because the concept it held at it's core (that it was more or less relative to fighting game more so based in realistic applications of physics), it grew in acclaim and was easy to adapt. It was Christianity at it's core.
Overtime, however, as it's prophets and core census faded... it became bastardized into subgroups. That is what we have now, a group of individuals with a familiarity to one another ICly and OOCly, who more simply tolerate eachother.
Most of us don't really share the same viewpoints or ideals when it comes to this past-time, we only adhere to current ruling based on the creator of any given event. Making every event so drastically different in a negative way.
If we were to form a community, which I doubt we ever would, it would have to do the one thing that we Gaians are admittedly against; adopting a rule-set that would be imprinted in all events.
AMP is not that. It's too antiquated and contradictory. Even upon it's conception and during it's "Hay Days" it was little more then a list of names you could call people outisde of d**k, a*****e and jerk. The fact that people still use it ..baffles my mind.
