We're not going to get into any issues relating to the private lives and employment information of our employees in a public forum. That includes hirings and firings, employee compensation, anything related to job performance, and any of their relationships. These are things that every employee everywhere, at any company, has an expectation of privacy about from their employer.

so you're just going to deny everything, with one caveat? you do realize that you're making his assertion correct that all you will do is deny, deny, deny.

think about it as though you are a politician campaigning, or a sports star accused of steroids. you want to quickly dissolve the situation you come out openly with all the information and it goes away so much faster. all this denial and unprofessional demeanor on your behalf as a business makes someone like me very wary of blowing my disposable income on your game.

why should I willingly give any company my money if I can't even make an educated decision about their business practices? especially when you've been publicly called out on said practices? especially considering that your current behavior is exactly as described as the 'whistle blower?'

I've addressed all the points brought up in this thread that I can, as truthfully as I can. I'm not sure what else you want?

If you're concerned about business practices, publicly sharing private information regarding my employees and their interactions within my company would not be a good business practice, as it opens me up to a world of legal issues and would certainly make some of them very upset.

Alright lets let Bort address the concerns. No reason to beat up this thread more than it has in the 168 pages prior to this with insults and nonsense.

- Conspiracy Theory #4: DD is a big jerk who hates everyone.

False. I've known the guy for a long time and he's a really laid back, fun loving guy, with really no malice towards anyone. DD enjoys humor and is trying to bring some levity to the situation. This is, after all, a game, and should be played for fun. Never lose sight of that concept, and you'll find you have a lot less stress from whatever games you play! I know I do. However, I am sorry if you found his attempts at humor to be upsetting or frustrating. I am sure that was not his intention.


OK fine, but do you at least see that there is a problem with his postings? Corndog did it right. If your staff want to be message board cool guys and give the posters back the same shit we give them they can not do it from an account that says Admin under the handle. As some one who wants there to continue to be a GLB1 I'm getting sick of him pissing off my peers to the point they are threatening to leave over stupid shit that boils down to him not acting in a professional manner while representing WGG.

- Conspiracy Theory #3: Some GLB admins have or have had non-admin multi accounts to play the game.

True. We encourage our admins to play the game so they can better understand it, and also to have some fun! We found early on that playing as an admin account is next to impossible because you're constantly bombarded by questions or harassed, etc. A regular user account allows us to play the game like a normal user, and experience the same experience as all of you. Their accounts are unknown to moderation staff, and receive no favoritism. None of the admins ever really have time to do much outside of play some casual, though. None of them have ever even played world league outside of one former employee, as far as I know.

Would like to take on #3 if I may. But before I make my argument, I would like to say, I don't think anyone here other than you, DD and Darktanian has even mentioned the word 'conspiracy' or suggested or accused. Catch22's posted links mentioned many things. And considering he did it in a disgruntled employee fashion, I'm sure most long time members here read it with a grain of salt.

However, Many long time members here are not naive either. Most people know that the truth probably lies somwhere in the middle. Conspiracy? No way. Mismanagement of the game and Customer service issues? Definitely. I have been playing here since 2008. Have never broken any rules and have always just tried to enjoy the game for what it is/was.

Season 8 was the best imo, before many changes. GLB is a great game no doubt. I am sure I can speak for many here who who simply feel like many things about not only the game sim, but even it's forums is too secretive. but we can discuss that in depth at a later time. Back to #3 of your conspiracy theory, not mine.

#3. I agree with you on everything 100%. However, while I understand the need for Admin multi's to 'enjoy the game'. enjoying it, does not mean at a paying customers expense. If I troll, and get caught. I face the risks and penalties. But Deathblade only ever looked to just troll intentionally, for fun.Just to anger people. And that is ok if he faces the same penalties as I do. He was an Admin, and admits to banning multi's. If he is trolling me as a regular member and not a secret admin, If he gets the better of me or crosses the line then so be it.

But what happens if i cross the line trying to get the better of him? Not knowing he is a 'SECRET ADMIN lying in wait? Ban Hammer? Who's to say? Do you see my point?

Now I realize, one man's troll is another man's jest. I also realize, we all troll from time to time. intentionally and unintentionally.
Ignorance is bliss. Until a disgruntled employee exposes. it. If Deathblade wants to engage me just to troll, I welcome the challenge. Until I find out he is a Admin. No way around it. Admin's shouldn't troll as multi's. Just for fun. Plain & Simple. And Defending him by saying its a free forum so he can have his 'secret fun' at the expense of customers isn't going to cut it.

However, I would love to troll and be trolled by a Corndog. Do you see my point?

Maybe mine came off as an insult or I just worded it wrong but it was really just a strong question asked .Nothing more was intended.
