One of the other MU*s I worked on for several years became under new administration and the old slowly left. The new admins had the idea to force the playerbase to consolidate. This meant closing cabals, guilds, taking away the ability to choose certain cities as starting areas, etc. Having experienced the effects of closing options available to players I strongly disagree with doing such. I will always support the choice to provide -more- options to players and not forcing consolidation. More religions, more cabals, even more guilds and races would be idea imo.

Just my 2 cents.
