OOC: I think it's time to give advice again. Yes, advice, not lecturing.
I. It seems that some of the rules I stated last time didn't make the impression. Some of you new guys are still having side quests, even if they are not really welcome in an RPG. Role Playing Games usually have a main plot, set by the creator of the game, and the other players have to follow it in a sensible way. Don't take me wrong, there are times when these side quests blend in quite good, but only if there's nothing better to do. And, as I said (Arnie, more like), the grinders are needed to be repaired, then the factory has to go with good efficiency. Until these are completed, I'd like you to hang the side quests up.
II. It has come to my attention (big suprise...) that there's a lot of unsensible, pointless destruction around the meat plant. Of course, the term of destruction in an RPG, in my opinion, can be divided into two (if not more) categories. There's the one mentioned above: characters wanders around, damaging property just for the 'fun' of it. I don't know why this is good, I can only say what others have already said before me: Destruction is not a good way to make your character(s) look more important than they are. Sensible roleplaying, following the plot, and (!) using grammar in posts is all what you have to do to get known as a good RolePlayer.
The other category is 'organised' destruction, like the plan of blowing up the water pipe at the creatures' nests to get rid of them. As you can see this plan has a purpose.
III. If you're not sure about something, or you have an idea, or anything else about the RPG, send a PM to me.

Hopefully, I have said everything I wanted to.
