In all frankness and seriousness...

Just keep the GMs the fuck off R99.

The only dev / GM that has even been wanted in the PvP forums has been you (Rogean).

Just keep the GMs off R99. Get a couple to do char stuck, corpse under world, zones down, etc... game mechanics.

Sorry to respond with less than ample patience, but I have been preaching this for 3 or 4 years...

What about rules that are easy to enforce (like bind camping)? The deterrent value of being punished for something like that is enough to make most people not do it. It's not going to burn out the GM staff since virtually no one would be dumb enough to risk doing it.

Yeah training isn't easy to catch, but that's just a reason for needing a high standard of evidence before punishing anyone. If there's not enough evidence, then just don't get involved. And most blatant training should be solved by casting root anyway. I fail to see how this is a big deal. If you don't have a rule against training there will be about a hundred times more of it.

when you enforce bind camping rules you run into problems like what if you kill a guy at his bind and he keeps spawning and attacking you (bind rushing) hoiw many times do you defend yourself before your camping him just let us pvp and fix the quests and other cs issues imo
