Message: <blockquote data-quote="Tutrie" data-source="post: 33482" data-attributes="member: 2118">The first sentence is what mostly I disagree with. I don't necessarily trust anyone either but I do give them responsibility to do the right thing. That said I monitor everything they do with plugins. On the other hand I also get its a lot easier to monitor a Minecraft Server than it is forums.Trusting that people will do the right thing is hard to do especially when you don't have a lot of time because then when they don't do the right thing it takes a lot of time to fix. I agree that you aren't here to baby-sit us and therefore don't want anything to go wrong but, if you use bad past experiences to try and create a new "good" thing it ultimately will end up in failure. I could give you many examples in history of where bad past experiences led to new "good" things to end up bad too. For instance the Al-Qaeda - US conflict is one of them. 30 years ago the US and the world gave weapons to help Al-Qaeda to repel the Soviet forces that tried to control the area and turn it into a communist region. Biggest example of bad experiences ever is that the only reason the world ever did this was because they did not like communism. This one past bad experience, the fact that world didn't like communism, led to supposedly a "good" thing when they gave Al-Qaeda weapons. The same weapons they use today to kill American Troops and terrorize anybody that is an enemy of their Jihad.All of that said trust is an important thing and relying on past bad experiences to lead to new "good" things doesn't work. We learn from the past but how we use it is another. If you look at all the past good experiences and compile that into one then you will come up with something that is good. Biggest example of that is most likely the creation of Democracy. Of course you still use those past bad experiences as a caution. You learn from the mistakes you made and make sure they don't happen again but you don't base everything you do in life off of those bad experiences. More likely it is the good ones. Something as simple as giving gifts is using past good experiences to make something new that is good. You liked it when you got gifts so you decided to give gifts to other people. If you only use the bad experiences where you didn't get any gifts then you would end up not giving anyone else gifts. If they only used their bad experiences we would be in a world were compassion does not exist.In short don't limit anything because of past bad experiences but rather limit them because you have learned from those past bad experiences. Really this all bubbles down into a defense for my proposal that made "no sense." Would it be such a big problem for Fusion and RMM to set-up their own forums with-out Noodle and Tom breathing down our backs about every plugin we use. Of course you should still check to make sure we didn't mess up anywhere. I just think if a clan proves themselves trustworthy why restrict them so much. This should go for any new clan that wants to use BoN as well. Until they are proven trustworthy they should be under the auspices of Noodle and Tom. When that time has passed they can be allowed to do things more freely.</blockquote>
