Remember that the Committee was set up to undertake those medicore tasks that were part of jitspoes everyday work, but which stopped him from doing other more important things and could easily be delegated to another group of people.
The whole Committee idea has been lost on almost everyone. Rather than being able to quitely do their job in the background, people have used the Committee as a body to scream at, abuse, and put down at every opportunity, whether or not they have anything to do with the matter at hand.
We do not ban people for the sake of it, if that were the case I can assure you there would be far, far more people banned for multi-accounts (for example) than there have been. As to a few of the Committee not playing this game anymore, to be honest that really has very little bias on the actual duties that a Committee member has to perform. You really dont need to be playing this game 2 hours a day, 5 days a week to ask someone why they have 2 accounts, or to send an email to someone asking them if they mind releasing a name they have regged. More important is the abilty to be able to form a judgement based only on the facts of the matter, and be intelligent enough to admit when your own view is wrong, and take the necessary action to validate your new view.
Regarding the recent incident of crashnig servers, the Committee has had nothing to do with it. The Committee did not crash any servers, neither did they ban anyone, jitspoe was the person who banned Sonny, not the Committee, and as a Server Owner myself, I can understand the reasons why he did take drastic action like that. That having being said, posts like the one quoted below make very little sense whatsoever:
I do this because a lot of people are disaffected with the committe.
As far as I can see, the worst thing about us is that we take far too long to react to decisions. Thats something that is bound to happen, considering the Committee is a totally new concept, and the framework we use with which to make decisions, and form our judgements is in the very early stages of development. This is being worked on, we recognise our flaws, and because we care about this game and this Community we are doing our best to reduce them.
If there is a vote to re-elect members of the Committee, I hope people look at what the Committee is actually there for, realise its importance, but do not overestimate it, and remember what skills are important, and who has the abilty to handle it in a mature fashion.
