Go through the 350+ list of people flagged for cheating by the initial use of the Antihack.dll and ban every single person on there and delete their accounts.

Ban the officers and leaders of TMO, Holocaust, and Nihilum for exploiting.

Restore legitimacy to both servers instantaneously, currently lacking due to the lack of punishments for said public and documented exploiting.

I'd fuck Harrison's mom. As a server GM, he wouldn't dare reproach or stop me.

I'd make a thread and probably lock it. Might log in for five minutes then do something else. Watch TV probably.

Fuck with Jeremy in-game like making his slow randomly drop or roots break or buff resists of mobs he is fighting to super high levels.

Jeremy would be banned for exploiting Phinny with Transcendence. (Pulling mobs through the floor, z-axis exploiting)

Jeremy and his old guild exploiting Phinigel, pulling him through a wall in the first month of the server. Now he's in TMO, the guild pulling mobs through walls regularly.


And let me add that when that picture was taken, I didn't know the difference between a mezz and a lull...

explain how that image is an exploit harrison? phinny sure looks to be in his lair and his head is in the wall, but he does that still when you pull him to the edge and it doesn't keep him from hitting you or anything. Looks like they are doing the normal chain pet thing to me.

Hey harrison, real quick just answer. How does it feel to be posting on a banned account (also against the rules) when all you say is how people should be banned.

also dont ignore this because every other post that mentions your name you quote and go off on, so real quick, go ahead.

Watch the video, he is pulled past the horses without aggroing them. Both casting through the floor and pulling him through his ceiling without engaging the horses. It's impossible with today's server. It looks like they are trivializing the content. If anyone has another theory I'd like to hear it because it may make me a better puller.

Oh and I was a GM for the day, I'd go around answering petitions and solving disputes. Like an EverQuest jedi.

I have had mostly decent interactions with GMs lately; sorry to say I've even had interactions with them considering I like to keep my head down but Ambrotos is very patient and Amelinda is shifting into a higher gear now. I've also heard that they are getting new guides to pick up the workload. Bright days ahead!

That is exactly what they are doing. Z-axis exploiting.

TMO does this in VP, too, in front of Amelinda. Zero bans. Just a post saying "don't do it anymore"

TMO can't even own up to it, either. They got caught red handed and still can't even say "Sorry, we cheated."

With free reign? I would be a fair, but zero tolerance GM kind of like this:


1) I would issue a one-time warning to anyone who is racist, sexist, homophobic, or insults the staff either in game, on the forum, or on IRC. If they continue, I would IP ban them and permanently delete all of their characters.

2) I would flag the most inappropriate names in game. I would tell them that they have one chance to come up with a better name that isn't against the rules, and if they fail to do that I would put their character in suspension until they write an email with a new appropriate name and an apology for wasting a volunteer GM's time. I would have to be more leniant than I usually would though, or the server's population would be around 12.

3) I would go through all of the most stupid petitions and suspend their characters indefinitely, until they again write an email explaining why they were giving the volunteer staff of a free game a hard time, and why they wont do it again in the future. If the give a fair reply they are free but with the understanding that their one get out of jail free card is now used. If they continue to be stupid I would IP ban them and delete all of their characters.

4) I would work through the backlog of petitions from reasonable people and try my best to resolve their problem.

If I had any time left over after that, I would arrange some fun GM events and I would start work on a jail system that I saw on another server, to help deal with the above points in the future.

I hope to whatever god may be out there that you are never put in charge of anything.

Yes heaven forbid people stopped calling each other faggots and spamming ****** ****** ******! in IRC and naming their characters wotwotinthebutt, and insulting Amelinda, and posting hardcore gay porn, etc.. I know it would be very hard for some of you to adjust to treating each other with some civility, but I'm sure you would cope in the end. And quite frankly if you couldn't accept what I said above (which is totally reasonable) then you shouldn't be mingling with the public anyway.

Ummm go ahead and search my post history bro. Point out a time I called someone a faggot or any such thing. And I've never logged into IRC.

I didn't say that because you wanted people to stop talking that way, I said it because your methods for going about enforcing the rules were far too harsh. Especially the in-game name thing. Right where you said:

Have fun with that...

My methods of giving everyone a fair chance and a fair warning? My methods are more lenient than real life. Go up to a cop and call him a faggot ****** who is fucking your life with a dildo (IRC paraphrased) and see whether he gives you a chance.


Especially the in-game name thing. Right where you said:

I think you read that wrongly.
