Slippery Slope

Un-delete a deleted, un-ban a ban. I don't envy a GM's job at all.
Heart Warming: Glad Comet is back  Reality check: While i was disheartened to see a long timer like Comet have his account derailed, i think i was snowballed more by the restore. I like Comet , and i am glad to see that he will get his character back... i think the server is better with players like him on it. I've never shared nor will i ever share account info with ANYONE. My wife doesn't even get my account info, why? Because it "was" a hard set rule that you are responsible for your account. I used to fight people on this subject, but now more than ever I think some people receive special treatment/favors or a blind eye is turned if they are friends with a GM. I have personally seen multiple screenshots of a severe rule violation that was sent in (recently), and appears to have been ignored. I am trying to be understanding and hope that this is a timing issue, but if it goes on w/o recourse, then i will assume that the individual was a friend of someone high enough, and accept it for what it is ( freeshard with people who run it, set the rules, enforce them as they see fit, and at the same time choose not to enforce them when they decide not to). Bottom Line: I'm fine with accepting all of the above. Beats 13.99 a month. Last edited by Mee on Feb 28, 2013 16:44, edited 2 times in total.

Majority of people on this server are decent and fair, even the ones that qq a lot are ok and you can trust them. The fact that your wife does not get your account info shows only what you think of her and how much you love her xD. I agree that the world is full of ****** people, but how do you expect to develop a healthy community without trust? Sure, there's a bad apple here and there, but most people on this server are decent. That kind of paranoid behavior is not normal. You sleep with a woman, probably have kids with her, you want to spend the rest of your life with her and some server rule is more important to you than showing her some trust and faith xD? This is precisely why world is what it is, because people get screwed ower by 1-2 idiots out of 100 other good and honest people they know, and they still develop fear and paranoia because of those few. Word of advice, if you do not trust someone with your life, don't marry that person xD. Or maybe you trust her with your life, but not with your account XD? Bottom line, why even bother trying to develop a community of any kind if you can't trust someone not to scam you for a guild crafter account or even give your friend/wife/sibling your acc data so he or she can pay your rent or what not? Let's all seclude ourselves in small rooms, grab a shotgun and live in fear. "He was concerned only with the naked fundamentals of life. The warm intimacies of small, kindly things, the sentiments and delicious trivialities that make up so much of civilized men's lives were meaningless to him. A wolf was no less a wolf because a whim of chance caused him to run with the watch-dogs. Bloodshed and violence and savagery were the natural elements of the life Conan knew; he could not, and would never, understand the little things that are so dear to civilized men and women." |

Undelete a char deleted by Someone other than the owner, i understand it. He will be naked, he lost all, but at least have his char back, what is totally normal i think, the guy deleted the house and all items, he lost for a LOT of plat. Unban a perma ban, like some ppl was shouldnt have been done, i dont understand why its called a perma ban if the char is unbanned.
2012:<@[Uth]Abydos> If we don't have SI by the end of the year, Im fairly certain I wont be a GM anymore :-p

Yeah, perma bans that are not perma bans make no sense xD. Well, I know how it is. Anyone who wants to make an example, needs a sacrificial lamb. Few people do bad things, and for example GM's in good intention turn a blind eye and say well, it's just a game, let's restore them and hopefully they've learned the lesson. Then a good guy like Comet gets screwed over and hmmm, they make an example out of him cause all others failed. It's normal, and I don't blame GM's, but I am glad Blue restored him, good decision on his part. I think most of the community knows there is a big difference between restoring some random guy that trades/scams accounts and breaks rules and Comet. Has nothing to do with Comet's realm rank. If you are on the server for 5-6 years, known by 99% community as a fair player and a normal guy that does not cause problems, I think exception should be made. "He was concerned only with the naked fundamentals of life.

You guys are going radical on me. I'm just saying it is a dangerous path to go down.
I wasn't being literal Raggnar. My wife doesnt play DAoC Lets try it this way: Shared account info with someone who traded the account for real money and got caught = permaban Shared account info with their best friend who got ****** at (person) for running over his dog accidentally and deleted all toons and sold off all the gear = DAMN! Shared account with a friend who used it to craft his gear, he used a macro tool and got caught = permaban Shared account info with a friend, who shared it with 4 more friends, and those 4 friends had 20 more friends... One of those 28 friends pretend to be a GM = permaban As a GM now i have to decide which ONE of those 4 people i want to restore, and tell the other 3 tough luck. Those 4 examples could easily turn into 50 examples, then choose 1/50 to restore. |

And i agree... i said it in my original post. I'm glad Comet got restored.

Yes, I got your point the first time, but the stuff you are talking about is paranoia. I mean, everyone knows Harjis is a retard, Comet made a big mistake when trusting him...sadly  . Some people on this server know Harjis for almost 10 years and they never gave him info, cause they knew he bought his account on live anyway and is in general a tard...sadly, Comet did not know him that well. But not all people are bastards, there are decent people you can trust. Ofc, in the end it's your call and your risk."He was concerned only with the naked fundamentals of life. The warm intimacies of small, kindly things, the sentiments and delicious trivialities that make up so much of civilized men's lives were meaningless to him. A wolf was no less a wolf because a whim of chance caused him to run with the watch-dogs.

No discussion needed on this. Staff gets to decide, as stated in the rules.
