What would help players be better human beings on P99?

How about let their be RMT, setup a site, and donate the extra cut to server cost/charity. It would cut down on the toxicity of the community, and maybe even the staff. This is like the war on drugs. Braknar in his holy crusade will never win. All you are going to end up with is a bunch of banned pixels. That a gm, may or may not in the future decide to RMT himself.

It would get P99 shut down because of supposed profiteering off a game that isn't owned by them.

I'm off to play some blackjack, look forward to reading the next 10 pages later on. Hopefully it'll be constructive <3

I think its pretty damn ridiculous (as I said over on reddit) that it came down to RL info. Do I have an issue with Braknar? Yes, however I would never, and never have, brought real life into it though.

With that said, I've received some pretty fucked up PMs over on reddit about my family. No game is worth this bullshit / my families safety.

I'm out fellas. Its been a fun 6 years on P99, but I'm done.
Thank god.

Idiot

Donate all the money to charity then, I've never thought about RMT'ing on this server, but it will never go away. There always be individuals with more money then time. So my question to staff would be, What do you hope to accomplish with the bans? I don't see the point.

agreed that it will never go away, I would however imagine RMT would be 100 times worse right now if staff never banned people for it.

Yes.

Yes. Competition is fun, for sure. But it doesn't have to be the only way in the game. Sim-repops/no variance would allow pretty much any raid capable (from a game mechanics standpoint) to get 1 target. And then if they want to compete for the second round of targets, they can.

Sure.

Like what? Why people were banned? Because every game does that.

What is something that's been swept under the rug and why do we "deserve" to know about it? (on this free server that most of us are freeloading from)

So, maybe in the guide application the staff should remove the RL name information and have only Rogean know it.
