How about you're banned until guild performs certain number of hours of "community service" which entails being a junior GM and dealing with petition disputes and IP exemptions and also debugging code or whatever nilbog needs

Yes. Excellent idea.

Give the cheaters a wider scope of morally ambiguous actions.

Part of the idea of forcing the crawl is to burn people out so that they play less. The top end is crowded right now because it's loot candy raining down from heaven: zonein pulls are just too dammed trivial. The same people gear up armies of alts over the course of years.

NToV should be a right pain in the arse that takes at least a full day of active crawling to clear. Casual guilds will do it casually, and hardcore guilds can try their luck at doing it regularly without burning out.

You don't need to make the high end easier, you need to born out the people hogging the top who don't know when to say enough is enough.

20-30 day individual full account suspensions will make people act right. You won't have to suspend an entire guild from raiding. Imagine Henrique not be able to login his account for a full month. Nobody will be fucking up.

But didn't realize that this is more like... P99's 4chan or something.

except instead of random anons its a shark attack of a small clique that posts here all the time. so he's doubly fucked.

it's almost as if the staff have actually said before that punishments would get more severe over time, yet here we are looking at a couple more 10 days [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Good thing would be guilds breaking up occasionally when permabanned, this could lead to different shifts in power perhaps.

The suspensions should be longer no doubt. That would give the non-banned raid guilds better opportunities to raid and learn the harder raid encounters.
I'd say put in a good behaviour rule (to the GM's discretion ) that banned guilds can lessen their sentence by helping other guilds learn. When these guilds get to know other guilds better they may be far more likely to play nice. I'd bet you're far less likely to train a guild who you helped out in the past, and they are far less likely to report you and work something out if it was unintentional/misunderstanding.


Or maybe they will just be cut throat pixel warriors and eat the suspension. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
