Why don't you join their marketing team then? You clearly have a strong opinion.

To me, bullet #1 reads like a positive, especially in context. The Staff clearly WANTS you to know CF is a strategy game with consequences, unlike other RP-only MUDs/MUSH/MUXs and RP-togglable MUDs. As someone else said, there is no pause button or Ctrl+Z. It's one of those things that isn't going to appeal to everyone, but it's a point that ought to appeal to CF's demographic, and demographics are what you market to.

Clearly, bullet #2 exists because CF has an aging system, something many MUDs do not. (Many MUDs let characters live forever, both in terms of age and "con" as we understand it.) That's why it's called a feature. If you want to argue over the amount of sarcasm or wit used to write the bullet item itself, join "Team Marketing".
