<3 G33ke. I'd been saying for the longest time that you needed SR.Mod. You seemed to be one of the most logical thinking and level headed mods, giving you a higher rank and power over things like the Bajan issue should have been a given. Maybe then we could haven given Bajan the boot earlier, and gotten rid of such a massive bad influence on the community. I wished you'd stayed as a mod for a little longer though, but it was your choice.
As for the Hive, I know why people play on it. It feels a lot different from MCSG, and a fresh feeling game always feels nice. But I have many reasons for mainly playing here. The community is wonderful, there is a bit of drama on occasion but we deal with it. A big part of these servers for me are, obviously, the forums. I've like many others, have grown attached to this community and feel like leaving it would be silly. Also, I get treated like a random noob on the Hive forums. I also think Hive has their priorities screwed up. Allowing BSM is silly, it gives an obvious advantage, I feel like they just allowed that to hold onto Bajan for a little while, as well as the baccas. They allow a mod with obvious OP-ness, but then disallow teams of three plus, that is the main reason I don't play there. It's silly, teams are part of the game, they should be allowed indefinitely, but of course the players there are conditioned to it and refuse to give unlimited team size a chance. They also lack a set of organized rules.
Off of the Hive rant, thanks for posting this. Read it all. And whatever you do, don't add a TL;DR.
I think this is the only story longer than mine
