Do you realize how many MONTHS it took him to put in that time? And that time WAS put in, often with very brief log ins and outs. He's been on more as of late, but the more he was logged in, the more he was "unavailable" and useless to the cabal. He would drop link in the silent places, and stay there for days on end. He got to have all the powers, with damned few of the expectations of conduct. Yes, WHEN he was around and WHEN he was actually not hiding in a notell area, he was a good member of the Fortress. I'm saying it's a shame he wasn't there more often, because he would have been useful. I don't get why thats such a negative statement. It's saying "Hey man, you're good. You should have been here more". We're not saying "Kelin, you suck. Die" so don't take it that way.

Spread out over a VERY VERY long RL period of time. The only other character I can think of from that same general time was Hipsin, whom someone else complained about logging in for an hour a month.

So which is it then? Because you basically said the same thing as me here, but you said you don't get how I could say what I said. Which one of us is smoking crack? What makes it constructive when you say "I got stuck defending alone because of Kelin more than once" but for me to say the same makes it flaming and thus bad?
