After being threatened with permaban a fourth time, for doing nothing more than liking to debate evil topics like science and evolutionary theory, i've decide my active days in this game are numbered.

I no longer want to participate in the day to day activities of Illy, I have lost the desire to explore the game and help grow the community.

You will probably only see me with the occasional siege or trade from here on out, as long as this game stays the way it is.

If I should happen to get banned I announce here that the Dlords will be the owners of Karak Drak (town where the discovery is at, if I don't get banned beforehand) and all my other towns to do with as they please. My Deicide alt will be divided between Siege, Aesir and DiL. All towns have 80% to 100% research completed.

When a games ceases to be fun it is time to go into semi-retirement and/or move on.

This game I will not miss, the community I will miss...well some of you I won't. LOL

Illy would not be the same without you, Epi. Please stay. Every player adds something unique to Illy and whenever a longtime veteran leaves, a little bit of Illy history is lost. 

The community here definitely needs you. 

I also consider you a friend and would be most disappointed to see you go.

I totally agree with Belegar, and I think there are many players who would!
Despite some people not liking you, we all believe you are very important part of Illy, so just take a few days off, but do stay :)

Hope you return back!

Cheers!

I enjoy disagreeing with Epi far too much... how would I ever keep myself entertained?

a few days off will not change Epidemic's relationship with GM Rikoo, which seems to be at the heart of this.

While I understand the importance of moderating chat, and the equal importance of upholding guidelines, is it helpful to the game to remove players such as epidemic?

It is to my understanding that Illyriad has just a little over five thousand active accounts. It needs all the players it can get, and removing someone over science discussions (I've seen Epid on science, it is rather harmless, in fact a lot better than seeing someone 'run' into gc and go /me molests xxx, runs back out of gc) is stupid.

Epidemic has all sorts of dumb things to say on several RL topics and he can be pretty aggressive when saying them, but he is an asset to the game and I would like to see him stay.

This will be a one time thing. :)
I agree with Flavius on this. and I'm sure we have seen alot worse in GC. I seen what Epi said and GM Rikoo said.
This is for Epi GM your not going to win so make peace or avoid.

Alright, closing the thread as it serves no purpose other than stir up rumors/etc. If a player ever has questions about policy or anything else, they can simply send me an IGM.
