Mae247 | 207 Posted March 12, 2020 Author Share Posted March 12, 2020 Just wanted to get train riders opinion on this as I want this to be everyone’s decision and not just mine. In light of the virus outbreak I am thinking of parking the train for about a month. I want everyone to respond to this in the following way: If in support of @ me with In support of If not in support of @ me with not in support of If no opinion then @ me with neutral at this time More details to follow after we have some sort of open discussion and I get your answers. This is open to more than just riders at this time as I’m open to any opinions on this subject. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spacepup | 2,404 Administrator · Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 @Mae247 In support of. I'm not the 'panic' type, but I mean, this is something that is just silly and fun, and there is no urgency. There shouldn't be any harm with just pausing for a bit to let things settle down. While the most risk is through person-to-person contact, it can still be transferred on items, not to mention just an extra thing to manage and deal with / go to post office if that's the case, etc. I don't think it's a crazy thought, to just hold things up temporarily while we get settled in with whatever is happening. The box is en route to me at the moment. If people are hellbent against waiting, then sure, I'll send it along and you all can do as you please. But I don't think it's a crazy thought to ask this question Mae. You're just trying to do your due diligence and be careful. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mega Tank | 955 Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 I am in support of parking the Random Gaming Box @Mae247 Worrying about sending this box should be at the bottom of priorities right now.

Mae247 | 207 Posted March 13, 2020 Author Share Posted March 13, 2020 (edited) @spacepup I want you to hold on to it till the end of March. If anyone is not in support of this I am sorry. I wouldn’t be able to live with myself if someone got sick because of me no matter if it is directly or indirectly. If your mad, fine I get it. I will deal with the hatefulness as this is what I signed on for with bringing the idea to life. Please, no need to drop out of the running. I’m not asking for the box to be sent to me as that’s silly at this time. I trust spacepup. Don’t fill this thread up with hate please as this train has always been meant to be fun and not so serious.

Gloves | 11,759 Administrator · Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 1) I'm in support of parking it. Even if it's not something that is transferred via packages like this, it still requires each person in the line to go to the post office at least once, and I think it'd be best to avoid sending people out to interact with others like that for something like this that is just supposed to be fun. Postponed doesn't mean cancelled. 2) I don't see anyone saying anything Hateful so let's not jump to conclusions or take things personally. If you think someone is being negative or Hateful or whatever, I'd suggest clarifying with them, especially if you can do so privately. The majority of the people on this site are pleasant folks, and I'd generally err on the side of misunderstanding over malice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mae247 | 207 Posted March 13, 2020 Author Share Posted March 13, 2020 Thanks for being cool about it peeps! @spacepup make sure to send pics on the thread so we at least have that to hold us over lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MuNKeY | 241 Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 (edited) I think parking the box would be a good ideal for a time as the less interaction with people in public places the better until this mess is contained better. Already have mass hysteria going on as it is and even if we use our heads and protect ourselves does not mean others are doing the same thing. We have (as far as I know) 18 cases here in TN and an ungodly amount of scared folks with colds thinking the worst and even though its not even near me but doesn't mean I am being slack on keeping things sanitary around my home or when I go out.

B.A. | 1,139 Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 I was asked for my opinion in here, so here it is. I think worrying about your mail is completely unnecessary. I still have to go to work, my kids are still going to school, not everyone has the luxury to be able to barricade themselves inside their homes. Wipe you mail down with disinfectant wipes if it concerns you, keep your hands clean...this too shall pass. Live your life. I'm not participating in the game box train though, so what I think doesn't really matter. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mae247 | 207 Posted March 28, 2020 Author Share Posted March 28, 2020 Just wanting to bump this thread. I am glad I parked the train on the siding now with how all of this is unfolding. Hope everyone is doing well! Thanks all for sticking around! Again, I hope everyone is well as well as your family. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
