I'm posting to let everyone know that I'm back from vacation now. My latest blog outlines the trip. It's nice to see our LS contingent working hard as usual

I hear that our vent is being used a bit more lately, and I also noticed that we gained a lot of GPs while I was away. We have some new members as well. I'll update the reset contest stuff asap (probably/hopefully tomorrow night). I'm impressed to see the activity level of a lot of our newer members, and of course a lot of our vets are still pushing for the good cause. Labyrinth is going to see some promotions soon, especially since a few are technically overdue based on co-leader discussion (details are private). My inbox will be full tomorrow morning and I probably won't be able to make a really huge dent in it for a day or two, so if by chance I miss any PMs, please try again. Cleaning my inbox is now a priority after attending to some more moderation-related things and also to guild related things (mostly in our hidden staff forum on the guild forum). I CAN say that a few higher-level policies in labyrinth are probably going to shift in the near future, but that's mostly going to be of interest to our co-leaders. I can also say that we'll be paying special attention to any member-related conflicts and any violations committed by our members. That's not meant to scare anyone. We've always had investigational process that involve "problem" members and these processes are going to be modified. It only affects you if you get noticed by co-leaders for screwing around with jsp rules

But I'm also interested in working toward ways to improve communication within our giant Guild, along with developing some ways to make promotions happen faster without making us "top heavy".
Now and then some cobwebs need to be swept up, but my guess is that in this case some of it will be felt. for one thing, I'm considering creating vent-based contests to "lure" members into being on vent

ISO suggestions for that. Keep up the great work everyone + sorry for the wall of text. I added a lot of those details for sake of transparency. No super-major changes are on the horizon, but all the little things that will happen will probably add up to making us stronger and better

Translating for everyone: I had a nice trip -- Will get to ur pms in about 1-10 months :rofl:Rew welcome back

So guys I have bad news 
Don't worry I am not leaving the guild lol.
But anyways,
So saturday night me and a few friends decided to go to a party and say we were staying the night at each others houses..
Well in the morning my best friend let his girl drive his car because he was to drunk to drive.
Next thing you know I am getting a phone call( I am with my other friend atm going to mcdonalds where we were going to meet)
Well anyways the phone call was that they had gotten in a car wreck and of course I am freaking out.
But he and she are ok. but the car was totaled and he got breathalized and the cops found alcohol in his car.
So his mom ends up calling all of our parents.
So now we are all in trouble and grounded for life 
I can only drive to football practice.
Luckily I still have my xbox phone and computer.
This sucksbr>
I can't see any of my friends except for at football.
Then more to come, we go to football yesterday and our coaches already know about the incident.
We are the leaders/ captains of the team all 3 of us. We are also seniors who are suppose to be setting an example for the younger players.
We had a long talk with the coach as well and we are still on the team so I guess that's good. Well that sucks dude =\
Hope you get better

Well MORE TIME TO SLASH
