To Nivoxz N.

(Edited by the CMN)

You appear to be registered in 3 factions - that is against the game rules.

If you wish to be a member of the Hive, please activate the "leave" procedure for the other 2 factions you are registered with

I think I am missing something here. Anyone care to enlighten me?

He has not been authorized, therefore I think there's little cause for concern for now (unless I'm mistaken and you can view the private forums without being authorized by the team leaders).

No - I don't believe that one can.

However there is concern with the CC (who have authorized him) that he might be a mole for another faction.

With HongHu's original post (inviting Nivoxz N to spy on the other two factions) I had similar concerns - and, of course, info could be supplied by e-mail or through chat rooms, by-passing the Hive Private Forum.

(BTW, I have not divulged to the other 2 factions that the Hive had the "open invitation" to Nivoxz N, just that "one of the others" had but that I had deleted it.

And I guess the question must be asked - of HongHu, prolly - is Nivoxz N a DL of yours, or a friend of yours put up to this by you?

Sorry to be suspicious, but the circumstances - and sequence of posts - are indeed strange

I want to apologize for initiating this thread. I have taken this more jokingly than really seriously. I would like to assure you though, I know nothing about Nivoxz. If I do I wouldn't want to talk to him like that in here would I? But I would like to apologize again. This is not something that I should make a joke of. I came here more of a learning aspect and have started to participate for the people here are so warm hearted and fun. But I guess I still have a lot to learn, including how to treat the forum and so on. I have not contribute a lot on how the game should be played of course, since I view myself so inexperienced. But at least this is an assurance that I myself is not "spying" or anything to get this team to win. I don't have that motivation at all. I came here for the fun really. Please accept this as an explanation. But if you guys are really unsure about my participation, I would do anything to your satisfaction. If you would like me to leave, I would do that. I would still hang out in the general help forum and wish all your guys the best of luck. I would miss you guys of course, because you guys are so full of fun.

HH:

I have no problem with you continuing as a full participating player in the game and member of The Hive.

Indeed, my edit appeared so soon after your original post that I doubt if many others read it, (and certainly not Nivoxz N. as Chairman Voltaire has assured us that NN has not - and will not - be authorized to join the Hive. Nor have I divulged to the other 2 factions that Nivoxz N is registered with, that the "espionage invitation" came from the Hive, so no damage has been done as regards this aspect.

With Nivoxz N, it might be just a genuine rookie mistake - as a new registrant to Apolyton maybe he is unaware that he cannot be a member of 3 factions simultaneously in this game.

I have PM'd him and e-mailed him with this info, (no reply yet) but in any event it seems that it is only the Consciousness who have authorized his participation in their faction, so again, no harm may be done there.

This may blow over soon

Damm, I lay low for a couple of days and I miss all this good soap opera?

[Vev]

Not to mention the original message too.

[Jamski]

What's going on? What happened? Who? Where? Was it any good?

I simply said that we give him the glorious task of getting the key to the new code for us (oh that old joke that I often made and perhaps nobody gets), nothing more, nothing less. As for GooglieGod's accusation about me inviting him "to bring to the Hive as much info, plans, etc from the other 2 that coiuld be garnered" I'm entirely innocent. (...weep...) But who am I to argue with the God?

And I am gracious enough to apologize - in my righteous indignation (when I used the "finger of God" to erase the message) I forgot - and couldn't check - how innocuous the original message had been (indeed, as the Comrade rightly says, just "get the code") until the Comrade pleaded mischief rather than evil intent in his defence

[Snowflake]

You are always gracious my GooglieGod! I bring you this sacrifice: this. (I would bring you more but I don't know how to search in private forum to get the exact url.)

Vev says:

John says:
Easier said than done at 'Poly as only MarkG or DanQ could ban a Drone Ambassador from the Hive private forum (and prolly means being banned from 'Poly completely) - we had that problem when the rogue joined all the factions - no-one could disbar him, (until he removed himself)

Vev says:
HongHu told he/she/it to spy on the Cycon
Vev says:

John says:

John says:

Vev says:
