Chat about PKs at AW GZ // Communityagent1Apr 28, 2000, 1:17am
This is a log of the chat that sort of started out of the blue while I was
talking to m0e about the PKs and the choosing of their leader. Irrelavent portions have been removed and replaced with "...". -Agent1 ----------------------------- AW Customs: Welcome to AlphaWorld! Enjoy building in this world and please observe and respect our Content Guidelines located at www.activeworlds.com/terms.html :-) [Customs Aide]: Welcome, Agent1. For the Conduct Guidelines please say World Rules or see http://www.activeworlds.com/conduct.html .... Agent1: hmm... m0e, what would you think if the leader of the PKs were to be eleceted from the general "population" of PKs every 6 months or a year? The PKs could each vote for another (but not themselves) and elect their leader. Any thoughts? :) .... m0e: agent!! what a grand idea!!!!! .... Agent1: Really? :) .... Ernie Sidmeyer: I disagree m0e: I should hae thought of that months ago!!!!! Ernie Sidmeyer: why not let the people of AW decide?? Wing Cmdr: m0e, your going to turn your monarchy into a democracy? Ernie Sidmeyer: like a true democraty .... Eep: that would be too democratic, Ernie. .... Ernie Sidmeyer: I see .... Agent1: m0e, do you think there's a chance of that ever happening? :) .... m0e: agent, seeing as citizens and tourist can vote, I expect that if I won anything, it was a fair vote. besides, I hear that not all of teh PK's like me :-)) .... Agent1: Really? The people of AW choose te PK's leader? Hmm... I didn't know that .... m0e: ahh, you mean PK's!!! I though you ment the CY!!! LOL .... m0e: agent, do you think the the owners of the Gor worlds, woudl let you vote on who has PS there?? Eep: why should there be PKs in private worlds? m0e: or any world owner, for that matter Eep: PKs should be abolished .... Agent1: uhh... no... put I thought we we're talking about PKs :) .... m0e: eep, the PK is a fancy name for a PS Ernie Sidmeyer: In a private world the PS is the owner and his trusted friends .... Ernie Sidmeyer: period Eep: inconsistent, m0e "She Wolf": that's an interesting statement, m0e...recording. Agent1: But m0e, PSes in private worlds cannot lock-down accounts :) Eep: PK=Peacekeeper, PS=public speaker m0e: yep, ES< and this is a private world, open for anyone to build Ernie Sidmeyer: I see your point M0e .... Eep: another inconsistency; public building worlds are not private. .... m0e: eep, on america, anyone can build, as well as winter .... m0e: tell those owners they have no say in who PS's .... Eep: Jetta owns America world, I believe. Agent1: So, m0e, back to my orginal question. Why not (after accepting new PKs and the like) let them all decide who leads them? .... Agent1: uhh... m0e, you misunderstand me... I said that the PKs should elect their leader :) .... [NOTE: We were discussing the differences between PKs and PSes here... I just thought I'd spare us from the extra chat] .... m0e: yep, and the owners of awcom decided to give the PS to the PK's :-) Eep: don't confuse PK with PS m0e: this is their world Agent1: uhh... what does being a public speaker have to do with the PK's leader? :) m0e: agent, awcom woudl not support that .... Agent1: Why not? .... m0e: agent, ask them :-)) .... Agent1: m0e, how is the leader appointed now? .... .... m0e: to tell you the truth, I have never like the PK name .... Agent1: m0e, how is the leader of the PKs currently appointed? .... m0e: ok, before I leave, agent, the past head of teh PK's picked who woudl replace him ----------------------------- anthony bathgate (wing cmdr)May 21, 2000, 11:36am
