no need to petition. doing sky is its own punishment.

Been here many years and this ruling makes zero sense, im curious the GMs point of view on this. This is a real "cry-wolf" like non-other.

This is pretty absurd. On what grounds were the players suspended?

Since Awakened has no sky day, they aren't apart of the player made agreement (sky rotation). If it's against the rules now for anyone (even if they aren't a party to the agreement) to be in sky during someone else's sky night will the hit squad that farms Noble 24/7 be suspended every time they kill noble on someone else's night?

We've gone 0 to 100 real quick on player made agreements.

Setting aside the absurdity of people (who are presumably not part of the sky rotation) getting suspended for going to sky on a night when Clue has no intention of raiding, I wonder: Is a guild allowed to squat indefinitely on a sky slot they aren't using? I bet there are a lot of guilds who would love a weekend PM slot if clue's sky raids are on 'indefinite suspension'.

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.

What happened to people working things out first in pms to avoid petitions? Thought we were trying to move forward on this but clue petitions instead of talking it out and so do some other guilds too lately. Why is this being allowed to happen? Were all just trying to play a video game here.

GMs must have gotten a bit bored with all the hippie open raid stuff and needed something to do.

Oops - does that count as staff bashing? Why do we all use this forum anyways where you can get banned for discussing things? Why don’t we all just use /r/project1999 or something
