As most of you have read in the announcements, Blue Glowies no longer have access to the correspondent forum. I admit, it was because of me. My plans for hawtpants domination backfired and got us all kicked out.

Actually it had nothing to do with that. Logically it had to happen sometime. If you have a corr for every profession, and then that corr retires, then the next corr retires, you have 2-3 glowies per corr and all of a sudden, it's a very crowded forum.

What will happen now? Well I'll continue to help Gyopi in whatever way I can outside the corr forum. I don't have any access to secret info (nor do I want that burden anymore) but a lot of corr-work or fighting for our issues has nothing to do with secret information.

So, in effect, this changes very little. Just thought you might be curious about the announcement.

I did wonder initially why Blue Glowies still had access to the Correspondent forum after retiring. But then I reckoned it was to ease the transition to new Correspondents taking over. A 30 day transition period seems reasonable. Plus, it allows you retirees to really relax back into Veteran player mode. With a little added battlefront wisdom earned along the way.

Yeah, kind of funny to let retired people see the same stuff that the correspondants see. It's like having two correspondants. BTW, I hope you had the wisdom not to buy the game Star Wars Battlefront

My Announcements section in the "cool new layout™" still says "Jedi Death on POB Ships".

This change is actually a huge relief for me. With access to the corr forum, there was an expectation that I knew secret information, so I had to be *really* careful what I said, even if it had nothing to do with any secret information, just so nobody would *think* that I was hinting at some secret information. It really puts a damper on posting when you have to choose words carefully, or refrain from posting at all on certain issues. It's not really censorship, but not really full and free speech either. I'm going to enjoy my regained freedom (within forum rules, of course).

I didn't mind having more than one correspondent! n'Jessi has been extremely helpful in all sorts of ways! Besides, its nice having someone to back me up when other people don't seem to understand what the issues are.
