[Discuss] SWI State

[AJ]

Tom,

I'm fairly disappointed regarding the announcement you made in SWI
about the end of the island.

This was the message you sent:

<quote>
Island Closing   (7 days, 1 hour ago)
With the domination of Sandelak, this episode of the island is coming to an end.
We will be closing the island down, not immediately, but you should
bring any open roleplays to an end, pack up your stuff an emmigrate to
some other island. Emmigration towards this island and character
creation have already been disabled.

While I will not argue that it was confusing, in SWI, everyone in the
realm of Ikalak assumed that you will be shutting down the island
within a few days/weeks maybe and so disbanded their units and started
heading to cities for emigration.

I only got to know of this because I asked the Ikalakian ruler OOC why
all their army has disappeared off the face of the island.

Actually when we heard that the Island was closing, most of us had
disband their unit and start the move to the nearest place to
emigrate.
The message was clear, the island is closing, pack your stuff and
leave. We didn't expect that Sandalak was going to continue this war.

And the only reason why Sandalak is continuing this war? I found out
from the Discussion list that you will not be closing the island for
at least another month, maybe more.
If only you had given a tentative time frame in your original message,
this would not have happened. This sucks.
