So, I get a lot of hate from Bret for organising a free Omega 9 Mini event in which this additional rule was defined in the Event thread:
Quote:Special rules: Depending on the numbers, respawning/reengaging of certain factions might be allowed. We'll clarify that between leaders of attending factions, as we have done before successfully.
But now, I am catching all the hate. And I am not taking that in.
This is the communication that took place before the BAF|-Reaver fight started. It was a fight that looked fair, the BAF side had the same number of snubs and a GB. So... this communication happened:
Quote:[21.02.2014 20:50:38] Cerulean.Reaver: // Any arrangements that we should know of before we engage these BAF? [21.02.2014 20:51:03] IMG|Falling.Teardrop: //I'll allow them to respawn for the diplo rp. But otherwise... no. Everybody was invited.
[21.02.2014 20:51:47] /fm baf| //reavers will engage you. just make sre you docked first. you can respawn for the img-baf rp if you die.
[21.02.2014 20:52:04] /fm baf| //obviously, do not reengage them then
[21.02.2014 20:52:58] /fm reaver //you can ofc engage baf. i will allow them to come back (but not reengage you) for the rp we had planned.
The hate after the fight, when I was just on my BPA to back the BAF up to keep it fun and tense:
Quote:BAF|xxx: //You ever make an event a gain that allows Reavers to come, We. Will. Not. Join. It.
[21.02.2014 21:10:54] BPA)Earl.Catharty: //it is an open mini event
[21.02.2014 21:11:04] BPA)Earl.Catharty: //and I warned you and even allowed to respawn
[21.02.2014 21:11:04] BAF|xxx: //Guess what. None of us want to RP with it not.
[21.02.2014 21:11:09] BAF|xxx: //now*
[21.02.2014 21:11:16] BAF|xxx: //So I hope youre happy
[21.02.2014 21:11:23] BPA)Earl.Catharty: //How is that my fault?
[21.02.2014 21:11:28] BAF|xxx: //You let them come.
[21.02.2014 21:11:28] BPA)Earl.Catharty: //It was an even fight
[21.02.2014 21:11:35] BAF|xxx: //EVEN FIGHT MY ...
[21.02.2014 21:11:47] BPA)Earl.Catharty: //calm down. It was even.
[21.02.2014 21:11:53] BAF|xxx: //Bull load..
[21.02.2014 21:12:09] BPA)Earl.Catharty: //can exclude them next time.
[21.02.2014 21:12:11] BAF|xxx: //5 of them took us all out
[21.02.2014 21:12:20] BPA)Earl.Catharty: //But... seriously... I did expect it to be a good fight
[21.02.2014 21:12:26] BAF|xxx: //Do so. Or No one from Bretonia will join your events.
[21.02.2014 21:12:32] BAF|xxx: //That is FINAL.
[21.02.2014 21:12:35] BPA)Earl.Catharty: //Ye... omg.
[21.02.2014 21:13:03] BPA)Earl.Catharty: //as I said, you can respawn and Reavers move out
[21.02.2014 21:13:11] BAF|xxx: //Nope. We're all logging off.
[21.02.2014 21:13:14] BPA)Earl.Catharty: //But... ye. If you want to be angry now... nothing I can do.
Seeing this irp reaction makes things rather bad.
Quote:Ladies and Gentlemen.
I will be brief in my words as I know on how the situation came through into our recon of Omega 9. Therefore the Admiralty Board and I have concluded, That until further notice, all activities in the Omega 9 system are suspended.
That is all.
Combined with the blaming and hating that I was given by Bret in Admin channel (I will not post that, in order not to escalate this), this is really bad.
This is a pixel shooter. Things get shot.
I am not responsible for the bad outcome because I allowed your enemies to participate (in an open event), I do not earn your hate. Hate the people that shot you. But this is not my responsibility.
See you again in events or not.
That is entirely your choice.
