pressman
The likelyhood is that OpenLies will be almost universally unattractive to those currently working in mainline. The lower pay won't be such a problem, but the planned rosters that I have seen will be an absolute nightmare to live through.
So direct entry into OL will be required regardless.
This is NOT about mainline access INTO OpenLies! Hardly any of us want that kind of misery.
The stakes are much, much higher than that!
