I don't know the future of this game and I know the community is quite resilient. The blog I posted a few months back is quite moot right now so I suppose I best update you on everything that I know of up to now

So to begin I've reformed staff and it introduces player staff again. These will play and control one aspect of the game. For Will it will remain as community but he's had everything else stripped off him. He still has access to minor things in case the game decides to have a fit or we have a return from the usual abortion adverts. With this said it has been an honour to work along side Will and he's basically held the game for a year or so whilst I've been busy. With this said I believe in equality and for his dedication to this game over the years he has been bumped to Avatar, given full equipment (not upgraded) and a set of 50k of credits.

I will do everything else, accounts, clans etc sounds a lot but in a small community it is quite easy to do. I will however be hiring another player staff, out of respect to EX-Staff I will be picking from the pool of current guide/mods or the pool of EX-staff that have left on good ground. I don't believe putting it out to public apps is a good thing to do currently.

Legacy is set to continue how it is for a while, Zorg and HCS have a work currently, respectfully without starting a riot you have to understand that times have changed and browser based games aren't the craze and the market is flooded with them, so obviously for that company to survive they have to change. I'm sure Zorg will post an update in the next month or so.

I will be getting around to Loans and tickets soonish, I'm going to speak with faelust and see what needs doing for MM and get that launched for you guys. I suppose this is Zorg getting what he wants and me revoking my resignation. CRAP!

First thing's first, Russian Roulette was a surprising success and is now over. I need those who made it through Round 4 and Round 5 to message me with what they want specifically.

Second thing, at the moment Scott is unavailable as he is on holiday. So any new issues, concerns, or complaints can come directly to me until he returns. Just so you get an idea, he's not even in the same country anymore. So he's totally unreachable for Legacy stuff right now.

There will be a few changes going on in the near future when Scott returns. What they are I cannot (and will not) disclose at this time on the possibility that something happens and THAT changes as well. Also keep an eye out for more potential events that I've been throwing lately.

Since I just took the time to clear out a single swear word out of a single forum from a single gang, I think it is time to invoke a little spring cleaning. What this entails is the Council of each gang going through each of their individual forums and using the search feature to find words that do not belong. This includes the obvious swears and terms that are not allowed. For an "easy" reference, simply think of what the filter blocks (within reason). If you want a list of specifics to search for since that's not specific, nominate a spokesperson to message me requesting a list. Better for me to get only 4 messages and have them spread the word than all 5 members message me for the same thing. I will check back on Apr. 2 to see how it went. If this hasn't been done, I will determine how to handle that.

"But Will," I hear most of you saying in your pleading voices, "your last blog said you will be stepping down from Staff at the end of March." Of which I must respond with, unfortunately things change. And my stepping down has been postponed due to a few issues rising up. So, for now, you guys are stuck with me until these issues are resolved.

What does this mean is changing? Right now, nothing. But I would like to remind a few of you of something. Just because you can disable the filter on side chat does not mean you are free to say anything you want. Racial slurs/slang, derogatory terms, and anything qualified as player abuse is still not allowed and can be reported. This includes all forms of communication on Legacy (side chat, wasteland, forums, etc.).

As for the Murder Mystery Scott was supposed to host, I will look into that and see what is going on. Until that time, see you guys around.

Scott included me in his blog, but I'll post my own just to clarify a few things.

Yes, I am stepping down from the Volunteer Helper team as well when Scott does. This isn't due to me not wanting to do the job anymore, but more the fact that I have a new job that takes up a majority of my time, along with sleeping. 50 hours a week and during the midnight shift, then the desire to see my family on the weekend, I just don't have the time to properly dedicate to this task anymore. So, at the end of March when Scott steps down from his post, I will be doing the same.

I applied to be staff way back in August of 2011. And amazingly enough, I joined the ranks of the staff team. Ever since, I have done the best I can to keep things not insane around here along with Scott and all those who tried to step into the shoes of a staff member at Legacy. And it has been one heck of a ride the entire way.

Some of you have annoyed me more than others, but none of that matters to me. I may stick around as a player when I can. So rejoice! Those of you who have wanted to for the last 4 1/2 years will finally be able to kill me on a daily basis

A few of you have already expressed a couple of concerns, such as the SysOps team, the Mods, and the Guides. All I will say for now is that Scott and myself will be sorting all these sort of details out before the end of March rolls around. So don't worry about all that for now.

See you guys on the flip side
