How would??you like??somebody play Big Brother to you, constantly looking over your shoulder? Everywhere you go, Not even the toilet is a safe haven anymore, for HE is always right there, behind you. Never saying??a word; just watching and staring. This may go on for weeks, Months, or even YEARS.??I don't care who you are, eventually it will start to wear on you. What is this??person thinking while he watches you? Is it love? Is it Sadism; he laughs at your every misfortune? Is he Jealous towards you? Maybe he is thinking something perverse, something of Immense morbid??pleasure.??You do not know. He just stands there and stares,??Looking at you with those cold Beady eyes. Staring and staring, until it pierces the fabric of your very soul.

The eyes, the??small beady??eyes! Why do they look at you so? The curiosity might drive some mad.??You may ask, but will he answer?What does he do when he's NOT watching you? Is your stuff safe? Did you lock the House this morning?

CRAP! While you were deep in thought, you remembered you forgot to turn off your stove this morning,??and now your home lie in ashes.

On the internet, you can never be 100% sure the people you talk to are who they say they are. They could be good roleplayers pretending to be someone you know, or they could be an complete stranger. Even pictures can be stolen from places like Myspace or Facebook. Who am I to tell you this? For all you know, I could be Jackie Chan or Chuck Norris, Oprah Winfry or Doctor Phil. Personally, I'd like to claim I'm Patrick Stewart (Captain Jean Luc Picard), but that'd be an insult to the good man. ?We may all meet in game, but I still consider people I meet here, as people I met on the internet, and as such, Each and every one of you could be??Sexual predators, or terrorists, or con artists. The fact the community is so suspiciously awesome makes me more suspicious.

That stalker I wrote about, could be anyone??who follows you in game (via CP or actually following you). That fire, was your??Hard drive??burning for taking too long to read this.

RE: CP Player Location
Looking at the poll results, the GMs are split evenly between yes and no.

I say yes to see location, to pick out that KSer who is quick on the Teleport key.

From a GM perspective, it's easier to have the location. Although we do have a command that shows player location ingame, we can't see everyone's location very easily because the bottom of the list pushes those at the front of the list off of the chatbox because of sheer number of lines alone. Having the CP with location does help with GMing.

But then, hey if it doesn't slow down other progresses as it's already done, I don't mind the changes and the GM thing is a small inconvenience to some of the other side effects of CP showing location.

Isn't it possible to make it so only GMs can see locations?

RE: CP Player Location
Looks like the poll is... making conflict.
People have said "Yes, make it visible" in the thread, and have then voted the yes option on the poll, which technically goes against what they want. oO
