I for one am tired of a small group of EX regulars who engage in Ville bashing on the forums. I am also tired of regulars who play incognito and then complain if they get treated like a possible Llama for borderline behavior. Right or wrong we admins tend to cut regulars a little slack because we figure they wouldn't have gotten to be regulars if this was their normal mode of behavior. If you play under an alias expect to be treated like a common player. If you act like a possible Llama then you will be gaged/llamafied/kicked or whatever action the admin deems appropriate. At that point you need to suck it up and apologize not get mouthy about it.
The Ville it is a changing and maybe some people want to freeze time or relive glory days, but that ain't happening. LIFE changes...and so do games and so do MOST people who play the games. When I first registered on the old AvantiVille forums I believe I was number 72. We have over 700 registered forum members now !! I remember being happy that there was a second server, because it was so hard to get on the server most times, now there are 7 servers.
There is a lot more I want to say but I think Snaggle said it very well in a TVB forum post:

We get new regulars every day, and they are what keeps this place going. So don't worry that a few disgruntled ex regulars are angry, let them waste their breath on complaining about the "Old Days" of Avantiville, and how it's so not that way anymore. There are 3 times the servers, and at least 600 times the players that come through our fine gates on a daily basis. They just can't get over the fact that this is an ever growing place, and will continue to be regardless of if they still play here.

I for one am very happy that the Ville it is a changing. Stagnation leads to more problems than change does in my opinion. I revel in the fact that the Ville community is a living growing viable entity, and I am a part of it. So there....
I just wish the EX regulars would either move on or Come back and help instill the values and ethics that was the OLD Ville into the NEW and ever growing Ville.
It is a bit of a cliche, but if you aren't part of the solution then you are probably part of the problem.
Cheer up, have fun and don't be so negative please. |

Very well put Dad. There is no way that the ville can please ALL the players on our sites. Of course some are going to feel that they have been wronged by whatever may happen to them or to someone else that they are concerned about. The admins here do the best job that they can and if you feel wronged then plead your case in the proper fashion without posting it all over the fourms. By posting on the fourms everyone can see the issue and of course everyone for some reason just HAS to get involved. The ville continues to grow and attract new people because it still has the respect from members and folks who want to participate in a well run, fair place to conduct there fragging. All above is IMHO
