I have a feeling that Eventru will probably show up soon(ish) and tell us to e-mail our concerns about the administration to support@lusternia.com.
Just sayin'. :/ Sorry about what happened, in-game sis.

Actually, I did email support@lusternia.com several days ago and didn't get a reply (which is not typical with my every other dealings with Lusternia). All in all, this experience has not tarnished my love of the game or outlook on anything (least of all writing). Got anxious, and posted here rather than a second emailing. I do not meant to bash or troll... actually was looking for more of an answer about the origin of the word Nekotai.
My text used this quote from Lady Wise to support the claim of three generations of Nekotai: the Chosen Ones of the Scorpion Caverns, the Illithoid-based Nekotai, and the Wyrden Nekotai of Glomdoring. The thesis of the text was to demonstrate how the Wyrden Nekotai are the cultural inheritors of the Chosen One's Scorpion style of combat mixed with the Illithoid's stealth and psionics. Something like we practice either a perfected or bastardized version of this martial arts (depending which side of history you are on). Considering my citizenship in Glomdoring, there was an admitted and planned bias.
In keeping with the word is Fae based, I assumed (though it is not included in my "scholarly" work) that Grandmother Scorpion was exposed to the Fae at some point, and used that word. I know that the Fae are commune based, and so are the Great Spirits; though didn't have any textural evidence to bridge the assumption of Scorpion's connection with Fae. Also don't have a tight grasp on all aspects of Lusternia culture and history to make this leap. Note: Blooredi's debut of Spirit Scorpion came out in-game years after this work was published. I could dig around that text some more, but I'm pretty certain that there is nothing explicitly stated.
Thoughts on this?

Considering support has been mailed concerning this manner this is now an administrative issue. As such it is inappropriate to discuss it on the forums. While certain criticisms of administrative calls and/or activities may or may not be warranted, remember that we are all humans as well, and launching a full-out attack on the forums is unlikely to elicit the desired effect (i.e. change of policy of similar). I suggest you take some time to allow support to get back to you, these things are generally first discussed among all individuals involved if they are deemed severe enough, which is a manner that will generally take more than a few days. That said, I am fairly certain that all e-mails sent to support are dealt with professionally and that you will get a reply, even though it may take some time.
Feel free to create an alternative thread should you wish to discuss Nekotai etymology in depth.
