Email [email protected]; this looks like a split from Ashen Hills --Linden 08:41, 28 March 2008 (EDT)
Expendia is a step in the wrong direction, but I have always been a mediator so I have spent my entire Amtlife getting people together to play more. If a new park is what it takes for Cam and company to have fun, fine. The only risk you run is that bigwigs in a far off land take enough interest to make you not official or something. But really that doesn't matter, no one can enforce that stuff to a degree that matters. I would urge you to just arrange a heavy weapon game at Ashen Hills, hell sit out of the normal games if you want, but I don't see splitting parks as being a solution here. -nameless
This is a confirmed split from Ashen hills, primarily because the Expendia people want to use and have all those in their park use heavy weapons. They believe that using light weapons is cheating. --Linden 19:18, 30 March 2008 (EDT)
