Does your intention to further step back have anything to do with the site being listed up for sale? I think it would probably be better for discussions if you were just upfront, transparent and explained your motivations in a logical, cohesive way because to be honest, you've been all over the place in this thread and it's clear you're not being transparent about your motivations or what you hope to achieve.

Don't lie Chris, why are you making so much changes before jumping ship ?

I’m not saying bingo suicide because that literally IS NOT what it’s called. It’s called Emigrating

are you working on a survey to gather all this information? You agreed it was a good idea, are you expecting someone else to do it for you?

Good afternoon Chris,

A lot to unpack here and I'm probably wasting my time but I'll bite.

Independent Chief Justice Bimbo:
I think appointing somebody who has previously been in the Pink House won't deter biases, I think it'll worsen it. Your next suggestion is maybe better but it would then mean somebody inexperienced in running the site would be calling the shots. I also think it is a bad idea to further cut PB pay, it would only further deincentivise candidates. I personally feel this role is entirely unnecessary and I think if somebody were in place to "keep people in check" it should be somebody consistently in place for stability.

Not necessarily inexperienced. There may be people whom wish to do the job whom just never were PB or fashion police previously. That would be ideal - an independent pertson keeping a close eye and check on thinsg and making sure boases etc are minimised. Cant be a bad thing right?

No it doesn't .
I put Ximboland up for sale a while ago and delisted a while ago now as well. I put it up for sale largely because I am just  too busy and felt guilty that i am not able to get involved as much as I would wish. I wondered if the pace would be better off without me and someone else at the helm. 
However when it was up for sale I spoke to a few potential buyers and 1 in particular fellow quite closely - a buyer from Canada but when i got into the detail and nitty gritty of the community/democracy aspect I realised it was quite advanced and complex and that i could and should only ever sell to someone whom cares and understand about this aspect.
He was a wham bam thank you mam type of businessman who couldn't care less about the community and just wanted to monetise, monestise,monetise. I couldnt squeeze any specific plans out of him. In short i suspected Ximboland wouldve changed so dramatically for the worse and it would become useless. The process of talking with him and going through the sale process also made me realise how much I like Ximboland and so it gave me extra motivation to get stuck in and improve it. Hence these discussions now. Thats not to say I wouldn't sell it but it would have to be to someone whom understands it and its history for sure etc 
So to answer your question the reason i know i have to step back is because i am so bloody busy. 


Regarding alt accounts - can you please explain to us what the benefits of letting people have lots of alts would be? I really don't understand why you're so insistent on this being something the community needs. Allowing alts would mean people would be easily able to rig fights, debates, contests and then there'd be no point participating. I'd not waste tokens on taking part and I'd not buy tokens to do so further.

More alts means more roleplay means more fun  and it means no more pressure on teh FP to ban people. It means our democracy will strengthen because there can be no banning corruption. We are not Facebook - all you people are hiding behind a bimbo username anyway so I have never really understood why we discourage alts. Its just habit by now. 



Regarding "hurty words", you've been advised repeatedly people are currently banned for being alts, bots or underrage and this isn't currently occurring. For me I'm more concerned about cheaters coming back and making the game unfun for the rest of us.
Its up to Karol  to ensure peopel cabnt cheat 

The bimbo suicide thing is wild, the community told you they don't like it. Why is this a hill you wish to die on?

They told me they dont like it because its a hurty word. But teh same community stood and watched and no one said a thing when  the same governemnmty who banned hurty words then executed their own fellow Bimbos (over a few of those hurty words). 
i see this as symptomatic of our problems. First you ban hurty words and then soon we ban any freedom of speech against the government. 


Thanks for the updates regarding your plans for the social features. It would be good to be involved as a site user in any consultations ahead of changes and for these to be communicated with everybody with clear plans laid out. It would be detrimental to your profits if you spend a bunch of time and money implementing features people won't engage with, after all. Several people have stated they're not interested in the monetisation suggestions you have and it might be beneficial for you to poll your community and ascertain if there's an actual market there.
Thanks yes these open discussions are useful

Came to this site recently on recommendations bc it seemed decently fleshed out as an avatar dress up game with fun forums. Absolutely never coming back now that Ive seen this absolute power trip travesty. Its a sexualised fun take an on old misogynistic stereotype and you're trying to turn it into a serious, actual political space? And don't understand why more right leaning opinion havers aren't coming to the sexualised, sex toy using bimbo dress up doll site? You're emulating Musk, do you think Musk would want to join here?

Anyways, good luck to those that remain, xoxo drink water and what not

Edit: And theres a feature where people see you block them and give a reason? Goofy

Let's say Chris were to find a buyer.  
What conditions would you put on that transaction?
Would you demand to see all the details of that transaction?
Would a new buyer be enough?
What are the characteristics that this new buyer would need to have?
Let's say that buyer was a current player who knew the game well.
What demands, if any, would you make to that person/player/buyer?

You want to get rid of Chris.
At what point, and under what conditions, will you demand the same of a new owner?

There are 50 people on this thread.  
There are 450 people out in Ximboland playing the game.
None of those 450 came here for threads like this.
One of them is leaving, because of this thread.

What lays in store for the next owner...if there is one?
Chris would like to retire.  But he can't...if a new buyer doesn't appear.

Katie who are you speaking to? I'm not sure I'm following? If you're referring to my post, I am not asking Chris to leave, I'm asking him to be transparent about his motivations in the hopes they will make some of the incomprehensible conflicting statements make sense. He's further elaborated. It has given slightly more context to his motivations.
