On the notif thing, I think we're just of different opinions on that so I'll leave that. =P
The contact thing... I don't think I've ever encountered someone that was angry at lag. And putting that aside, it's the responsible thing to do, contacting people, so it should be done regardless of the reaction.
The castmate thing does affect if you have a character wholly dependent on that castmate if they are in the picture, and I've seen multiple people with this problem and it does affect your entire gameplay.
And the fact that it's so casually stated that "Damned is a very slow game," is one of my main problems which got me involved in all of this. It's not supposed to be. The in-game time is spread out and lengthened, but it is not supposed to be "very slow." That even goes against the sense of the schedule, as it used to be expected (and done that way for years), that threads were completed within the 3-4 days of a shift. That is faster than any other game I have been in, prose or comment spam.
The mentality that Damned is slow is a main problem that needs to be fixed and adjusted.
