Dak 19:47:03 pm CDT
I have topics, I will open the Forum, same rules keep chit chat and greetings to whispers to benefit the scribe
is the scribe ready ?
snowrose{JTr}'s pleasure~GS~fg 19:47:58 pm CDT
yes Master Dak
Dak 19:48:59 pm CDT
ok, first topic
item 1: Further, the process of attaining the rank of Captain will be slow and deliberate, and requires unanimous approval of all current Captains. Question: Why?
_______________ Item 2: Re ShadowHawk
Well I have my answer, not so much as spoken directly to me. It seems none of the Captains are able to do that, but I seen a conversation today where... well one said to another:
xxxxxxx...aye, I will keep working on Him, *smiles*
xxxxxxxx...excellent our tavern needs new patrons
xxxxxxxxxxxx...oh, I spoke with another possible Master today, also, He wants to be a Physician, *smiles*
I have my answer as to why I not heard back about my request to pledge in four nearly five months time now.
So I will take my girl shuri and leave GS to those who are a part of and the "new patrons" who fit into their mold to themselves. I do wish all the best and well being.
Be well!

Dak so first one has too be an advisor to the captain does one have to ask the captains or is one chosen too be one ?? ~~
Dak 19:52:07 pm CDT
this kinda goes along with the other one
how about how does one become a advisor to the council since its obvious we need new leaders who will spend time here `` Sandman been absent for a while Thadron not here for months now ~`~`~guess r/t has them both
Dak 19:52:42 pm CDT
they have to be chosen by the Captains
Kazar~infamous pirate 19:53:06 pm CDT
Dak goes back to why Tavern has been empty and no slaves in slave class at all ~
Jondalar 19:54:08 pm CDT
Listening to the question. There are many possible answers Friend. As for Myself and You Dak..We have both been here longer then anyone that is current.
OriginalSandman_Builder/ Sr. Captain of GS 19:54:16 pm CDT
well I cant speak for Thadron's r/t tho he has been in slave class more than once in the last few months,, my r/t has kept me away far more than I prefer, but my rule #1 is RT comes first
ruby~{Randolph} 19:54:48 pm CDT
rest assured this girl, will be attending slave class..my Master has give consent to attend..smiles to mistress
snowrose{JTr}'s pleasure~GS~fg 19:57:12 pm CDT
That is good to hear ruby.
Bretval, Merchant 19:57:53 pm CDT
?The reason for the question is why unanimous... struck me as a way to insure nothing important gets done
Kazar~infamous pirate 19:58:21 pm CDT
Jarl Thorn hasn't been around either lately guessing r/t has him also ~`
snowrose{JTr}'s pleasure~GS~fg 19:59:22 pm CDT
Master has had r/t matters of late. trips
Dak 19:59:53 pm CDT
and you longer than I, Jondalar
Jon 19:59:59 pm CDT
Dak..If You wish I could speak to why We had several Captains in the distant past!
snowrose{JTr}'s pleasure~GS~fg 19:59:59 pm CDT
But He has been in lately
OriginalSandman_Builder/ Sr. Captain of GS 20:02:08 pm CDT
Bretval.. I took an oath not to reveal Council business.. an oath I have never betrayed.. I can tell you in the time I have been a Captain getting votes to go through has been slow, but getting a unanimous agreement is rare
OriginalSandman_Builder/ Sr. Captain of GS 20:03:58 pm CDT
grrr I stated that poorly,, it has been rare that a unanimous vote couldn't be achieved
Jon 20:03:48 pm CDT
I believe We had several Captains in the past due to a couple of reasons. One they could not always be here at all times. Two. They offered different points of view. Three. Each had their own strengths that help make GS great! Four..Th ey could all talk to each other and respected each other.
Bretval, Merchant 20:04:48 pm CDT
exactly the point, Captain
Jon 20:05:11 pm CDT
nodding. Sandman has been a good Captain. He has always as far as I'm concerned put GS first!
Kazar~infamous pirate 20:05:17 pm CDT Sandman aye knows this but seems its just you and Thadron~` we also have Randolph waiting too pledge for 5 months also knows his time getting into forum is hard ~~ its written that it has too be done in forum only also ~ Bringing back Portus would be good in my opinon his time zone works being in england knows he was pledged at one time yes ~
ruby~{Randolph} 20:06:14 pm CDT
my Master, has tried to pledge His sword to Port Kar..for the past seven yhn's..to no avail..sighs
Jon 20:06:35 pm CDT
smiling as I was Portus mentor when He first came to GS.
OriginalSandman_Builder/ Sr. Captain of GS 20:06:51 pm CDT
Kazar I have missed Randolph several times in the last few weeks by hours.. I will take care of his pledge if we can get in the same place at one time
ruby~{Randolph} 20:08:30 pm CDT
girl has scribed a pledge on the weekend..in the past, unaware a pledge must be taken at Forum...looks humbly to the Captain for clarification
Kazar~infamous pirate 20:08:59 pm CDT
Jondalar before my time here Portus had a falling out with another Captain ~ didn't come back Sophie does come in from time too time as a FW
Kazar~infamous pirate 20:09:44 pm CDT
Sandman aye he would be a good addition ~`
Dak 20:09:52 pm CDT
I have lots of time to devote to this , and am around all hours except midnight till about 8AM, and on occasion could be there at that time also
Jon 20:09:55 pm CDT
Aye Kazar. I am aware of the situation. Thank you for reminding Me.
Kazar~infamous pirate 20:10:32 pm CDT
Dak like you i have the time and the energy dont have your knowledge~~
Kazar~infamous pirate 20:10:58 pm CDT
Jondalar Aye ~
Jon 20:11:39 pm CDT
We All must remember why We are here. For the Love of Gor and for Gorean Shores. We must All support our Captains and each other!
OriginalSandman_Builder/ Sr. Captain of GS 20:12:36 pm CDT
thank you Bretval.. everyone here tonight has been a faithful supporter of GS
Kazar~infamous pirate 20:12:47 pm CDT
Jondalar yep why forum is good too bring up topics and discuss them how too make our home better
Bretval, Merchant 20:14:15 pm CDT
But that is part of the problem, Captain,,, it is not that you miss him it is that there is no one else to do it... a pledge requires a Captain not the Head captain... or have I got that wrong... ?
Jon 20:14:44 pm CDT
Rollo the Ax was said that if We turn on each other Our word is without honor and We are but dust!
Lita, Physician 20:17:08 pm CDT
*smiling softly, memories of long, long ago, and Rollo the Axe, and the great respect He got from All.*
Kazar~infamous pirate 20:17:47 pm CDT
Bretval i read it your way also ~~
Bretval, Merchant 20:18:28 pm CDT
And I do agree with you captain that RT comes first... this is not about you as an individual... it is about the situation that We are all in
Kazar~infamous pirate 20:18:47 pm CDT
Jondalar never had the privilege of meeting Rollo the Ax have heard of him ~
OriginalSandman_Builder/ Sr. Captain of GS 20:19:52 pm CDT
as to the comment by Shadowhawk, I don't recall speaking to him about pledging, but I am not saying he has ever asked directly,, but there is no record in my personal email and I didn't see an email as far back as September of last year in the GS account
snowrose{JTr}'s pleasure~GS~fg 20:20:04 pm CDT
Master Rollo was here when snowrose first came to GS
Lita, Physician 20:21:22 pm CDT
snow, I think Master Rollo was here when the Priest Kings first came to Gor! *chuckle*
snowrose{JTr}'s pleasure~GS~fg 20:22:05 pm CDT
~laughs~ she would not be surprised Mistress
ruby~{Randolph} 20:22:12 pm CDT
Master Sandman..humbly asks for clarification..must a pledge only be taken at Forum?
Jon 20:22:58 pm CDT
remembering his girl..awww what a girl she was and is! Rollo was a lucky Man!
Kazar~infamous pirate 20:23:15 pm CDT
See i think this is all about making our home better place reviving G/S~`
THINK having a festival would bring some back again we havn't had one in a while
Lita, Physician 20:23:20 pm CDT
He even preceeded Me in Gor, snow, and there are those that claim I was nursemaid to the first Priest King when He hatched in the Nest! *giggle*
Dak 20:23:46 pm CDT
galah was special, *smiles*
snowrose{JTr}'s pleasure~GS~fg 20:23:55 pm CDT
and galah was fg
OriginalSandman_Builder/ Sr. Captain of GS 20:24:55 pm CDT
smiling at the pretty gemstone,, I will have to verify that ruby
ruby~{Randolph} 20:25:25 pm CDT
thank You Captain
Kazar~infamous pirate 20:25:37 pm CDT
Lita grins ~~~~~ were you giggles ~
Lita, Physician 20:26:19 pm CDT
*laughs* No, Jondalar! I don't believe insectoids nurse! Next time I run across a Priest King I will ask Him.
Bretval, Merchant 20:26:28 pm CDT
I have not been around lately to know, Captain... I found it in the scrolls and was concerned and want to make sure it does not again if it can be avoided
Dak 20:27:46 pm CDT
The Council has always been slow in responding, *smiles*
OriginalSandman_Builder/ Sr. Captain of GS 20:28:05 pm CDT
of course Bretval
Jon 20:28:28 pm CDT
and there was reasons for that Dak...
Dak 20:29:05 pm CDT
aye, *smiles* patience is a virtue, *smiles*
Bretval, Merchant 20:29:23 pm CDT
And that is the end of Forum, I take it?
Dak 20:29:42 pm CDT
what is ?
Kazar~infamous pirate 20:29:52 pm CDT
Jondalar grins WET NURSE perks up lol
Jon 20:30:14 pm CDT
Dak...council being slow....~g~
OriginalSandman_Builder/ Sr. Captain of GS 20:30:38 pm CDT
aye Dak it has been,, but it is difficult to respond to something that wasn't asked. I am not saying he didn't ask in conversation, but I don't recall it
Jon 20:30:53 pm CDT
Kazar, I am Gorean...I am always thinking about slaves and battles...~g~
Dak 20:31:11 pm CDT
aye, they always told Me it takes time to research back and forth between the Captians
Kazar~infamous pirate 20:31:15 pm CDT
Dak council is always slow making decisions
Jon 20:31:29 pm CDT
sorry..Kazar
Dak 20:32:25 pm CDT
buying a slave took a month usually
Jon 20:34:05 pm CDT
Dak..And that is good. Just because a Free wants a slave does not mean the council should sell her just because He wants her NOW
Jon 20:34:36 pm CDT
flicka...sit next to Me girl!
Dak 20:34:54 pm CDT
aye, I never objected,*smiles*
Jon 20:35:30 pm CDT
laffin'..Keeper I also saved You a seat ..
Keeper of flicka 20:36:16 pm CDT
~I walk into the room and take My place in the furs so that flicka is sitting between Jondalar and I. ~
Are you comfortable flicka, ~Grinning~
Jon 20:37:33 pm CDT
Dak...Is there more topics this eve?
flicka-slave of Keeper 20:38:30 pm CDT
~frowning a little~ is Forum nearly over? Surely it can only just have begun.
Bretval, Merchant 20:41:13 pm CDT
Pretty much flicka.. they are into memories of the good old days
Dak 20:41:19 pm CDT
Captain, can You offer us all some hope that things can move along in the future ? I think that is what the faithful are looking for !
Keeper of flicka 20:42:07 pm CDT
~Clasping Jondalar's hand firmly~
And I you Jondalar
More topics?
Has the time in that part of Gor shifted again?
Are W/we late?
flicka-slave of Keeper 20:42:44 pm CDT
Thank you mistress snowrose, we are still on our summertime, but the time in Gorean Shores has not changed has it? It is showing 20.41 for flicka.
Dak 20:43:07 pm CDT
the time has changed here, to daylight time, Keeper
Bretval, Merchant 20:44:39 pm CDT
Actually yes, Keeper... last Sunday time changed *g*
snowrose{JTr}'s pleasure~GS~fg 20:44:52 pm CDT
yes, it is..she doesn't know who takes care of that...when autumn rolls around, she will post it on the boards...she didn't think of it, begs forgiveness
OriginalSandman_Builder/ Sr. Captain of GS 20:45:24 pm CDT
I will do what I can Dak. I cannot promise for others
Dak 20:46:57 pm CDT
I know Captain you are in a difficult position there are so many things only a Captain can do around here !
flicka-slave of Keeper 20:46:57 pm CDT
mistress snowrose, ~evil chuckle~ perhaps you could stand in flicka's place for a Jarl punishment in recompense? A girl is sure that Jarl Keeper would like that a lot.
flicka-slave of Keeper 20:48:35 pm CDT
~lowing softly~ ooops You are correct Master Dak, flicka is all discombobulated, it is saying quarter to nine. Mea culpa. So mistress snowrose, you are not remiss at all. Dang!!
snowrose{JTr}'s pleasure~GS~fg 20:49:04 pm CDT
promises, promises flicka
OriginalSandman_Builder/ Sr. Captain of GS 20:50:19 pm CDT
as for myself rt, my 74 Year old Mother is still in the hospital and will likely be for another couple of weeks. I have to help make sure she and Dad are taken care of after work most days, but those who have been around over the last couple of weeks can attest to me being here in the evening when rt allows
Kazar~infamous pirate 20:52:04 pm CDT
Sandman aye ~~ i can ~ why we need more leadership cant all be on your shoulders`
flicka-slave of Keeper 20:52:16 pm CDT
~scampers over to the Captain and gently lifting His hand to a girl's lips, murmurs her empathy with His having "life issues". Scurries back to her Jarl~
Dak 20:52:19 pm CDT
aye, YOU have been making quite an effort lately, *smiles* RT an be a real drag at times
ruby~{Randolph} 20:53:03 pm CDT
giggles enjoying being Home again, so very much
Kazar~infamous pirate 20:55:08 pm CDT
Captain Sandman hopes all works out well knows the feelling my mom will be 92 in aug ~ health not well
OriginalSandman_Builder/ Sr. Captain of GS 20:56:32 pm CDT
