Right, that's cool and all or whatever. But they may want to think about updating the rules if there are certain ones they deem unnecessary and within player control.

If there is what is supposed to be a rule amongst a set of rules that is not enforced, then clearly it's not really a rule. Which is ironic, since it's the only rule that's actually mentioned twice in the set--implying it's rather important. It's also one of the handful that can result in a ban.

Furthermore, it's emphasized at the end of the post that the rules are mandatory and are not to be fucked with--albeit they can do what they want to them.

The OP's question is valid: apply this post to any other rule. If people were using third party tools and boxing within the current rule set, would you prefer those issues be dismissed so easily? Keep in mind that the Play Nice "Policy" is just that, a policy, it's not a suggestion. Rules aren't suggestions, they're laws to follow. One would think it wouldn't be that hard to follow them, given that they're not very restrictive and quite frankly, exactly--the server is fucking free, don't be a dick.

That's what you can boil down most rules to be: "Don't be a dick please." And to think that someone who is taking advantage of this free service to us can't even follow the "Don't be a dick" rule is mind-boggling. It's not that hard to shoot a tell to the guy and be like "Ay, stop being a dick or I'll ban you. Ok?" Problem solved. If it's not, ban him.

Someone said something rude to you, you ignored them. If he doesn't keep making alts to bug you is there really a need to go to the GMs about it?

No.

I think this is main reason Gm's get annoyed. When dealing with every other everyday problem, thing's that can be resolved simply by a /ignore Tokum get under there skin....

I do agree that there needs to be a little more clarification of the "current" server rules that are or are not being enforced, but that being said I'd prefer it waited till after there done getting Kunark out 8)

And Kaiser is good people and his post was done correctly, he's just asking for clarification, no need for anyone to start flaming him :x

So you made a fool of yourself in your last rant (about the exact same issue) and got nowhere, so you decided to troll me instead. I can promise you, this isn't going to go any better for you.

You can't get along with anyone, that's not my problem. You having nothing better to do with yourself than run around starting problems and looking for ways to feel victimized does not require me to fart sideways to relieve your gas pains.

I'm not going to tell people to not say things that you don't like to hear. I leave myself available to handle server issues when they occur, not babysit you when you cause a big stink and cant handle the backlash. You cropped quite a bit out of that conversation, including this most important piece of wisdom:

You have an ignore list, you're expected to use it.

Keep in mind that the OP was threatened. This wasn't some guy who happened to say "fuck" in the middle of a sentence, he was harassing the OP.

To reiterate the OP: "DO NOT harass people." -- This is an offense that can result in a ban so long as the harassment continues past the warning the GM makes to the offender. But if no such warning system exists..

The alternative, given that the OP didn't post what was actually said to him, is that what was said to him was actually quite mild and not actually threatening and the OP took it to an extreme that only someone online could.

EDIT: It appears the latter may be the issue ^_^

The GMs aren't here to baby sit you. Some guy cursed at you, you used the tools available to stop it - problem solved. You had to go a little above and beyond and because Uthgaard didn't cuddle you, you're all butthurt. Why not just enjoy the game for what it is? (read: free) Furthermore, you make totally unfounded claims that Uthgaard "bought" the server with zero factual basis? You even admitted to checking the rules before posting and they seem fairly concise, imo. I'm surprised you didn't say it also ruined time with your "wife" because that is usually the way these threads end up going.....

Bottom Line:

You will encounter cool people here. You will encounter dicks here. You will waste your life. You will hate this game. You will have the best time you've ever had in an MMO if you just go with it and don't get mad, brew! But should you let the butthurt take over your system and ragequit because what some guy's pixels did to your oculars or what some asshole spouted off on the Rogean Uthboards allow me to suggest an alternative alternate universe you may do better in.
