BSave the rape analogies for when you actually have a point.

That's a huge jump to think that I'd ever actualy have a point.

Boy, this thread sure needs more posts bashing the OP for crimes against humanity.

You'd think people would thank him for making this a hot topic and likely getting changes implemented.


Edit: Is it really that hard to understand that some people will do whatever it takes to get ahead as long as it's not going to explicitly get them banned? It appears he's more than willing to receive your hatred, but not a ban. Save the rape analogies for when you actually have a point.

If I can't do it, no one can. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Cute, now you're going to take the tact that you're the savior of the server. Cute.

Your english is truly horrible. Your comprehension is just as bad. Look up the definition of sarcasm.

do you all like Drama that much ?

Omfg, I used a "." when I should have used a "?" how dare I! Certainly now all of the server will love you. Die in a fire.

I don't think you'll find anyone wants to defend AFK leveling here. Although I can see why it'd be upsetting to be punished for something that is frowned upon but not specifically forbidden. For instance, the naming policy. Yesterday my surname was force-changed due to it violating the naming policy (It was Mrgimmecrack). Reason given was because surname's cannot be a phrase when said aloud. Now, that's fine if that's the server rules, but I CANNOT find anywhere a specific rule stating "here is what is acceptable". Worse, I'm running around seeing dozens of players with surnames as equally against "policy" as mine. Do I feel jaded about this? Yes. Would I feel better if I could just find one place here on the forums that said "Names cannot be a phrase when said aloud"? Sadly, I would. At least I'd know it's being enforced for a reason, and not just bad luck on my part for no apparent reason. Because we are not a role-playing server, nor is it neccessarily recreating the live '99 experience (Surnames back then were just as offbeat and out there). So while I can't support the original post because AFK leveling is something you can't argue that you thought was in the right, I can understand the feeling of being punished without specifically having a concrete reason why.

On a side note, I do think you should have just said your peace and ended it. As much as it sucks, we play by the rules given to us (even if we don't agree) and pushing too far is just a waste of time.

So what you are really asking for here is for the Developers, and GMs to spell out every rule for you on the server. They are trying not to make the server a police state, but its apparent they will if need be. They are trying to give people the freedom to do the right thing on their own. Your parents shouldn't have to tell you dont cheat, dont lie, dont steal, dont run a red light, don't hit the dog, dont push your sister down a flight of stairs.... You just know they are wrong by the nature of them. And if for some reason you have accidentally broken a rule because you didnt know any better, or nobody told you, accept it, suck it up and stop whining. You aren't going to die because you cant have the surname you want, if its that big of a blow to your ego, maybe you should have considered that before you started playing.... A GAME....

Seeing as this is a private server which you're not paying for and the admins can ban you at any time for whatever they like, why would you ever willingly do something you know is frowned upon?
