Unless someone provides some credible sources, I can tell you that what that email notice said is completely false.  Most email notices like that are false to begin with and are not a credible source.

The idea of getting the general public to commit themselves to doing community service work is something that should be addressed, in my opinion.  However, like I said in my previous post, the people would have to be given something worthwhile in compensation and it would have to remain strictly voluntary.

And like Tiemann was saying, such a plan would never work in the United States; therefore, the facts presented by the email notification are utter BS. 

Section 1. Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime where of the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.

Heh completely forgot about that post, must be because I got it a dozen times (email, on several forums, IRC etc.). Sorry.  :p

I will miss the network, but the corporate stranglehold around what should be a community site is finally released. At GameApollo, we plan to provide a new network that will be made by gamers, for gamers!
