As a linkshell leader, I don't really consider it bumping and the like.
This is also coming from me, leader of The Seven where my forum posts under there are only 3 and those are the only 3 under it.
If other shells have lots of posts on them, good for them!
I think if someone is shopping for shells, they will look at every shell if they are serious about finding the right one, no matter how many posts, views, or order they are listed in.
And if we loose a member to someone who has a higher posts count, listing and/or view count GOOD, because the COMMUNITY still gains another member who has found what they see as the right home for them!
However, I would NEVER say Kylin was caving to anyone. He is trying to address issues that are brought to him by people (and I do not know what they are or who brings them up) the best way he can.Â
I hope also that no one thinks that I or any of the linkshell leaders are some ruling council. I was at the meeting and left before anything was ven discussed due to time constraints. However, I do know there were some leaders really sticking up for new players in there and raising their concerns.
The community is going through growing pains right now because there has never been a game where it was played for 2 years, rebuilt, shut down and then asked the old and new community to get back together and be as one.
There are no examples to follow here. I think everyone, both old and new, are doing the best they can for what it is worth. This is actually a really cool social experiment to view here. We should all be thankful we are having the chance to partake in it and making history as part of the first game to successful relaunch and come back bigger than its prior version.
