There couldn't possibly have been enough complaints to warrant a freezing of these people's hard-earned XP and items. I think that's crap. Seconded.

Neh, not Luna so much this time.
...And thanks guys.
For those of you who feel strongly for or against this though, since there are no other moderators on right now... >_>;;;
Thinking of setting up a public discussion thread.
...After which, a public poll for a certain time, locked at a certain time...
...Then I'll take immediate action.
As for everyone who has to wait in the meantime: ...I am so, so sorry about this. >_<

Yes... but why the FUCK is it locked?
Though not always a just decision... sometimes we must disable the new things and revert to an old way while we work out the new way again...
For some reason... many will hate it (CanadaCanadaCanadaEconomicBillCanadaCanada)
... Instead of working on the new way or expressing their views... they'll just bash on the fact that the people in charge pulled the plug. Now what would have happened when the bashing happened on the plug and we all got electrucuted... we gotta calm the people down before they hurt everyone else.
I personally have nothing against the freezing while the admins sort this out. There is no shame in keeping contested things under control while they try to figure out a better solution.
Mind you... I think the solution in the first hand was fine... but others don't... and therefore... apparently there's a 'better solution' and therefore freezing is justified...
My fucking logic just pwned me T_T

I understand that, which is why I've brought it to the Mods attention, apparently word has spread that the rewards are to be nerfed which upset a grand amount of the transfers many have threatened violent revolt and are tempted in leaving...
which is my whole reason for bringing it to the whole sites attention rather than becoming a fascist control system...

What I mean by that is that, when there are people behind the scenes "working them out" others left out are drawn to suspicen and will conclude anything. What I want to do is make sure everyone gets exactly what they deserve and I have to second what Justin Said on my thread earlier.

i think its just Luna Burr taking shit into her own hands again. Wrong. Please, PLEASE don't blame people without taking into account there are others on this board. I have just as much a hand in it as everyone else.

Mikey, please don't feel sorry. You did what you felt was right, but justice can be taken in different ways by different people. That's what fuels RP conflicts and that's what drives our world today into conflict.
In the end, we just hope we all come to some sort of agreement, and learn something from the whole ordeal.
It's ok to blame people... but only if you have proof. Innocent until guilty! ^^
Again, I advocate for stats to not be seen as something to complain about. They show how much work has been put into the character and therefore pretty much represent how much experience as a student and fighter they have gained. A well trained guy will have a higher chance winning a fight against a newer kid. It makes sense.
The qualm is that some of us are the newer kids.
The Admin of 42 have tried pretty hard to let the newer kids stand a chance here (something I don't quite support but there's nothing hugely wrong with it) by giving them higher starting stats.
They have also rewarded those who have had put work into building their character through quests (though if it makes anyone happy, I will not use the exp I have gained from that in any way, nor the money, nor the items because I feel that I contributed to near nil in that quest. The other reason being that they're just stats, I really could care less).
At any rate, us newer kids may be bullied and so on by the stronger and older kids, but they've been new once or twice in their lifetime too? How did they earn the right to bully (oooh this sounds so inhumane and evil)? Well, in short, they earned it. People are different from one another. We're all people... but we're all DIFFERENT people.

I have just as much a hand in it as everyone else. I'll assume whatever the fuck I want to. But now that you've publically outed yourself, let me dig into you next; who the fuck are you to tell me that I don't deserve this reward? I posted, I plotted, I talked it out with some people, and i wasnt' even a major player. However, I put the time, and effort, into that site, and got banned. So I don't deserve the reward that I would've gotten had I been allowed to stay? Fuck you. Just because you're butthurt that you're going to be at a disadvantage as a NEW STUDENT, not to mention you guys were given 30 EXP outright over any transferring 259 student, is fucking pathetic. Find something new to crusade about, starting with how 42's gone from a democratic haven into one of absolutist proportions. Viva la Resistance!

Wow, I definitely didn't see this coming. You're awesome, Mikey and I'm definitely glad to be apart of that experience. Formally, I accept my rewards.
I choose the following 6 canisters:
1 white (+ 5 constitution) 2 blue (+ 10 dexterity) 2 maroon (+ 10 intelligence) 1 red (+ 5 strength)
