They said if someone else was interested in it, they could take control of it.
When someone tried, they refused.

Just leave, right, then? Go make a new board. Let this one rot in memorys of

well, actually, they both stink, so you make your own food.

Do their thing? Its suppost to be a community. How do we keep a community going
with a couple old administrators who only show up when their position is
challenged and never update their site?

Lose a bit of momentum? Momentum? Hell, at least we would try to keep momentum
going. Castle World is dead, Hop-frog gives the impression hes trying to keep it
going, and does nothing. And no skills? No skills, eh? I suppose knowing how
Mythologies are made, how castles are built, how towns thrived, how online
communitys work, how websites are made and maintained, how projects get off the
ground and keep going is no skills? If you arnt a has-been you dont have any
skills, i guess. Oh well, i guess im just not skilled in anything. *Siiigghhh.

Its an arrowed COMMUNITY! We all are suppost to go under one person? So i should
pay ten bucks to become a member just so i can have my remarks discarded. Dont
you see what your saying? What makes hop-frog so great? Were all members, and
were all inthusiests of lego.
So i guess hop frog and the rest are kings, and were the lowly peasants, and
they can do whatever they please, kill the community, whatever, and if they
listen to us were lucky? as i said, were all members. This kind of behavior is
total Orcgutz.

well, Sava is called a "dictator" and then you yourself say that Hop frog has
total dictatorialship over the CW project and everything! If he doesnt want to
update it in a century, well, we can just wait, right? We dont have rights to
make demands. We cant do anything. Their lucky we even CARE about that crummy
old world they dont do anything with!

But its all squish because we have no power and Hop-Frog is dictator. All hail
Rich!!

And does not foster anything exept conversations like this. How can you foster a
community when you dont do anything exept sit on it forever?

Why should we not have power of CW? It was great in its time. However, hop-frog
is blocking development of anything new, promising that which he never comes out
with and then treats everyone like mindless pesants! What the heck kind of
community is this? You contridict yourself. So, we should fall in line or make
our own community, but we have to fall in line- augh! Your incomprehensible.
