I expect most to all of those games did not regularly have most of the active community inside a single room. Different circumstances lead to different conclusions.

In the past the admins were more reluctant to cross this boundary. Events proved to us that it was necessary to do so. Unless you are engaging with the reasons *why* it became necessary, hand-wringing arguments about "sacredness" and what not are utterly irrelevant.

Wake me when somebody makes a new point. Preferably one which refers to how the world [b]is[/b], and the existence of the one room culture, and not the make-believe world you [b]wish[/b] you lived in.
