I'm staying out of the current controversy, but one thing troubles me:
Doc and Grimm: Could you specify what you mean when you say "people" have broken the rules since they were put in place with issue #14. Specifically who? Specifically when? From what you say it sounds like the rules have been broken more than once in the stories, but as far as I recall I haven't heard anything about this from either of you or anyone else since the rules took effect. If the rules have been broken since the beginning of #14 by someone, it should be addressed as promptly as Gooz's rule-breaking was rather than being alluded to in a non-specific way that seems to implicate everyone.
I can understand your distaste for the way the current story is going -- that seems to be a trend with most people, as can be seen by the lack of posting going on. I'm fed up with the stories, too, and the only reason I'm hanging on is with the hope that they get better... that another issue #14, or issue #11, et cetera, happens somehow. But I can understand why anyone would want to quit at this point.
So quit if you want, but don't quit claiming there's some kind of mass rule-breaking going on, because there isn't. There really isn't. This latest situation with Gooz is the first rule-breaking that I'm aware of since the rules took effect with issue #14, and I hope it can be handled with a bit more diplomacy than it has been so far.
