First and foremost:
Brokenstones is a member-focused community. Without you, the members, there is no Brokenstones.
We're committed to being a community that puts its members first. We value each contribution and expect all members to treat each other with equal respect and courtesy. No one person is more important than anyone else, and we're all stewards of this great community. We assume the goodwill of every member unless proven otherwise, and we believe that trust and mutual respect are essential for creating a stable and welcoming environment. Thankfully, we have a dedicated and experienced team of staff who are committed to maintaining the site's stability and safety. Some are temporarily accepting their positions, and we'll be looking for additional members to volunteer and help us achieve our goals in the future. The success of our community is in all of our hands.
As we look optimistically towards the future, we want to assure you that we're committed to providing a safe and secure environment for our members. Our servers are stable and fully funded in the near term. Beyond that we'll be counting on the support of the community. We're exploring cryptocurrency as a practical option and we'll provide more information as soon as possible.
We would very much like to champion the value of posting and sharing. We recognize the need for rules that are applied with balance and consideration. They are being refined to emphasize simplicity and clarity, and we'll be streamlining them to remove onerous and unnecessary ones. We'll keep you informed of any changes that are made, and may ask for your input in the forums.
With the situation back to normal, stable operation, the Global Freeleech is being turned off and ratio requirements will be restored.
One more thing:
We recognize that there is a new Mac Tracker on the block and would like to wish them success. There is room for everyone and the community can only benefit from the variety and robustness that multiple trackers can provide.
Sincerely,
The Brokenstones Staff
