Came across this from a March 2008 commentary while cleaning up old digitalBYOND posts:

The less mindless babble we have in that forum, the better.

That's the first Popisfizzy post that I've wholeheartedly agreed with in a long time.

Then it's agreed: we need a 'BYOND hosting guild' of some sort where we can list people who have the ability to host games, as well as post a blacklist of people who can't be trusted (either failing to pay for services or who are known abusers of their hosting status.

If no-one wants to start up a fresh guild (by-the-way, can we have multiple guilds under one key?), I think I can be convinced to convert digitalBYOND over for such a purpose.


Soo... the question remains: can we use a guild that collects info from BYOND-capable hosting services? Perhaps even provide some review services or rating system and blacklisting services for hosting providers and clients alike?

Sound off in the comments!
I kind of joked to a few people in the past that we should have a Union for people who make money off of BYOND.

Edit: And that a blacklist could be an extension.
