Yeah.
I see here:
- How will we as a community react to rules change?
"I don't like MET", "I don't like By Night", "I love BAM 1.whatever-it-is", "I don't like changing" etc. Up-front: "I don't like change" is valid and I defend the right of anyone who feels that way to feel and express that--but please do be willing to work through whatever you feel so we can work together, EVERYBODY (even the ones who agree with me, including me) - Build Consensus:
We as a community will talk a bunch, argue and hopefully eventually agree to receive our BAM 1.x system fixing in such-and-such way - "Our Game, She Is Ailing? What-The-Huh?"
- Who Wants To Be The Deciders? Or... Whatever We All Agree To Accept, Who Wants In On That Process? Who Does Not?
- This Is What I Want From BAM Rules
A place to say "I want blah", "I also want blah", "I don't want blah because yadda yadda", "I do because yackety schmackety" and breaking into the contents of "blah", "yadda yadda" and "yackety schmackety" so that we better understand what we want, or at least what some of us want, and try to accomodate. NOT A PLACE FOR JUDGING OR DISMISSING THE STATED WANTS OF OTHERS--conflicts should be cleanly "I think that conflicts with what I want because x, y and z" - MAKE TEH RULEZ LIKE I SEZ! RAWR!
Wherein we actually make/remake our rules, as opposed to our rules for making our rules
(all-caps lolcatz denotes high likelihood of intense, dense, protracted arguments and strongly divergent opinions needing reconciliation, which is why some of the previous topics NEED TO HAPPEN--to facilitate that reconciliation)
