Well, there is a meteorological station there. Not sure how good their net 
access is. At least we can make a lot of noise and I doubt we’ll bother the 
neighbours.
It’s on for Evo next year.

Lion’s Head was an active volcano a few million years ago. Not anymore.
Marion Island is probably our closest active volcano.

That's all fine and good. I've already mentioned that I have no issues with him 
building up the college and prioritising that. But I'm still paying to use the 
venue. If I was there for free, I wouldn't say anything.

You don't have to be a 'good communicator' to communicate. It's got nothing to 
do with being eloquent or being professional; it has everything to do with 
being open and honest. Things are happening there that is not being 
communicated. Jeeva CAN communicate the changes but CHOOSES not to. I refer to 
'selective' communication yet again. If it suits him, he'll inform you about 
it. If you don't need to know, you won't hear from him. If you don't agree, I 
accept that, but I'm just going according to what I experienced this past 
Saturday, and I wasn't the only one.

I'm not saying I'm ungrateful for what he's done and for allowing us to use his 
venue and facilities, and I agree that we are fortunate to have what we have, 
but I'm not the biggest fan of being left in the dark about everything that is 
happening there now.

So look. We can continue to do what we do there and put up with having to 'keep 
quiet' when it suits Jeeva and wait for the next change to happen that might 
not even be communicated, as long as it's what everyone wants collectively. I 
just want people to be able to enjoy themselves and make the most of the day. 
If that's not happening, damn straight I'm going to look elsewhere.

You're overthinking this.
Take it easy before you stroke out.

Jeeva has been busy building up the college, his prioroties lie there.
That makes us no2, Jeeves isn't the best at communicating or multitasking.  At 
least, that's what I'm assuming/speculating.

I've never seen myself as a paying customer and therefore never expect service 
delivery.
For me it has always been more along the lines of, we get to use the venue, 
here's a little something for your trouble.

I think we are really fortunate to have what we have already.
I'm mostly thankful for just that.

If Jeeva honestly feels that we've overstayed our welcome, it wouldn't offend 
me if he just said so *lol* Just be honest and say "Listen guys, unfortunately 
I won't be able to accommodate you anymore because I'm looking to take things 
in a different direction". I wouldn't have a problem with that because you were 
up front with me about what's happening. Leaving things open to interpretation, 
on the other hand, is a very dangerous thing.

I'm all for Kamimodo as well (not just cuz of it's proximity lol).
Like Ashraf said it has that Gecco vibe to it that was really cool back in the 
days, and it's a more gaming friendly place IMO.
Not to mention there's a bigger probability to attrack more gamers there... 
well i think.

I wouldn't know about how Jeeva feels but should it really be the case that 
we've overstayed our welcome, it's only natural.
We've been there for quite a long time so it wouldn't be a surprise.
I'm down with Kamimodo if the rates are fair enough for everyon :) #MovingON

I dunno what to say about Jeeva.
I know this.

He wants us there.  He won't want us to leave.  He lacks communication.

Here's what I have to say.

I like Kamimodo, but Jeeva's is nearer.
Jeeva is lighter on the pocket, but we have to deal with bs.
Kamimodo is more expensive, but the exposure is awesome.

In my opinion, the best way to deal with this diplomatically, would be to ask 
Jeeva if there will be any meetings and shit in the week, and then relocate for 
that weekend.
If there's no-one at Jeevas, have a session there instead.

That way, we can keep the communication on the level, and let both parties know 
how we operate.
Whoever needs us the most, will make the most effort.

Thoughts?
