This is a private server, and as such we could just outright ban you if we didn't like you, and you know what? There's nothing you could about it. You're a guest here. If we don't want you, then good bye there's the door. But we'd rather be fair so to speak with regards people and give people a shot. But this harsher punishment system is to weed out the trouble makers. Kick and scream all you want, but when you ruin the fun for others, it's time for you to go.
Hey look, the Team finally grew a pair. Nicely done, will be interesting to see how this turns out from here.
Hello Team, after years and years of fake smiles and loads of BS, you finally grew a pair and actually came out and said it. Proud of you, I see progress. But a negative one.
I love the fact that you finally show your face, a face that not just me, but many others wanted to see. We grew tired of the bias, BS, stupid sanctions, and the list goes on but I truly hope you get the point. So, it's this 'Godlike' behavior of yours that make me (i will not speak in others' names in this case) dislike the staff beyond words, yet I still play my game just as if none of you even existed. Why? I simply love the game. Now what I don't love, is a certain admin making up stories for stupid sanctions, adding new rules and reducing x guy to silence because he can green text and x guy can't. Sure you will say 'oh but we're humans, we make mistakes' but when we players make mistakes, does anyone forgive us? No, we get rewarded with harsh rules. So instead of repeating the same excuse over and over again, why not just hand over the green name and piss off from the team moving on with whatever you were doing? It's easier for all and will save the drama and the trashing over Skype/TS/Discord/etc.
The rules are whatever, could be a step back or a positive progress, this remains to be seen. But remember the fact that this is a dying server, and you Admins would be playing with the NPCs if it wasn't for the players. Count to three a couple of times and the server/forum will be like Sahara desert, hot but empty. If that is the staff's goal, just tell us so, so we stop giving a f*** and actually move on to something relevant. The facts remain there, the rules weren't an issue. The staff was/is, or majority of it should I say anyway.
I can live with this new BS rules, but i can't live with certain admin(s) who make mistakes over and over and over again and get away with it easily as if nothing happened, and still hold their spots with green names. That is disturbing and should be fixed.
That would be all.
Great attitude to have Swifty. Oh, you wanted to hide behind your alt? Nah, let's actually use your main forum account, which in times prior alts could only be used for RP purposes, of which this is not. You say we should show our face, you should show yours then. What do you have to hide?
I love this game too, we share that interest at least. As far as playing God's? I'd love to, but even the staff hold ourselves accountable. As I said in the Torp chat, I wasn't involved in that sanction, NOR will we be discussing it here. If you want to carry on, go right ahead. You'll be out of this server in no time with that attitude. That's not bias, that's fact. The actions of an admin, if deemed negative, will be dealt with. Time will tell if admins don't shape up. Hell, I might be one of them and will be removed. I'll deal with it when it comes.
It is high time we showed our faces, as well as how we are tired of people with bad attitudes remaining. People may use the "Well I brought activity". No, not going to fly anymore. If it's activity based on a rule break or people trolling others, or any other negative action that people think they can get away with, we're going to crack down. We're tired of it, we're tired of people thinking they can get away with anything they want here. Not going to happen. If that means the server goes down due to lack of players, then so be it. But I'd rather it go down in a positive light, rather than people with bad attitudes skirting the rules making others quit because of the toxicity here, of which has happened plenty of times.
These new rules are to allow common sense to dictate whether people remain or not. As mentioned again, we'll adjust and provide clarification on certain rules over time given how things proceed. They're supposed to be easier and less cumbersome than the old rules, and allow more freedom. We're going to be less strict on variations of rules, and little nuances, but when you do break a rule that is outright blatant, you will be smacked hard. All of us admins agreed to that.
So have fun, play the game, but don't be a dick, maybe have a better attitude, otherwise there is the door. Thank you.
