Staff Feedback Thread

[Squad]

It came to my attention via another member of staff that the team had decided that a 500 million credit fine towards Auxesia was 'excessive' in light of their actions that include violating a peace treaty (again) by flying in the house without permission, smuggling contraband through the house, and then assaulting law enforcement when caught. This is on top of a few previous incidents over the last year or two, some documented, others let slide.

While it doesn't matter, much of this seems to be missing from the original post, which is particularly bare-bones.

Obviously this is harsh.

Yes, it is.

So, according to this staff member, not only is it unacceptable (disregarding pirates demanding hundreds of millions from PoBs), they say the team was actually considering pursuing further action against it.

After the post was made, we were made aware of it and began discussing as we would any other action item. The overall consensus was yes, this instance was unreasonable, and we were discussing how to move forward with it. It surpasses single-instance demands I'm aware of by a large margin, including those to POBs. Of course twenty-four hours later, it seemed there was intent to move extremely quickly, so the information regarding the demand itself was shared with LibGov as a courtesy while we discussed the action item as a group. We don't necessarily move equally as quickly.

Firstly, did no one consider contacting the LibGov forum account to discuss this?

To my knowledge, LibGov was contacted. I'm assuming that's why this post was made.

Secondly, is staff not aware of who leads Liberty factions, and is somehow unable to contact said players, despite several having a direct, open DM with one (me) on discord?

If you prefer DMs with every individual OF faction leader, I'm sure that could have been done as well, although I personally don't know every single individual in "LibGov" or who does what in it as I have no involvement.

Thirdly, why is 500 million considered excessive, but the forceful, complete barring from a house with an FR5 not excessive?

As I said above, we're still discussing the fine issue. With regard to FR5, to my knowledge none has been submitted by an OF.
