Pathetic GM Bans?

[mbravo]

Last friday, me and 3 friends were in Blackburrow, using "pathing exploits"
to get gnolls fangs for our level 9 friend, who happens to be brand new to the Everquest world. In all honesty, we had no idea a that sitting on a ledge that nullified agro was a "pathing exploit." Everquest back in the day was constantly patched, so in retrospect we just thought it was a handy glitch.
I've seen so many others do it, including two applefarts named "Thaid" and "Dukeof". These fellows are the ones who petitioned like a bunch of little girls and got us banned for a week, even thought they themselves were using the same exploit. The GM, "Amelinda" told us that the petitioners mentioned to us that we were exploiting the system, and we "ignored" their warnings.
BS. They sat around quietly trying to block the ledge we were using, petitioning away. Here's where you're going to say something predictable like, "Just wait it out, retard." That's what we're doing. However, you're stupid and I'll explain precisely why:

We were banned for a week for helping our friend out by using an "exploit." Well, WTF do you think you are doing by playing EQ on an illegitimate server in the first place? Exploitation.
I'm not going to call the GM a "Nazi" for suspending us for a week because it's too prosaic. I do however feel that a warning would have been much, much more appropriate.
All three of us have never exploited EQ before. Why not go after bigger problems? We were simply trying to get our friend up to our level so we could group together. Now, he is done with EQ. And, I think I'm done too.

"who cares?"
You should, because more and more people are quitting, which means less populated zones. EQ is largely a social game, so you do the math.

Additionally, our new friend to EQ had absolutely nothing to do with the
"exploitation" part; he was simply looting what we were killing. It was our fault (Yes, I accept responsibility for what we did) and not his. Why is he banned? Oh, because the GM wouldn't listen. I get it, she's the boss. She can do what she wants. But, with power comes responsibility.

p.s. Don't even come to me with the " it doesn't matter, ignorance doesn't make what you did acceptable." line because it's not even about that; I'm not saying what we did should be acceptable. I'm simply saying the time should fit the crime.

I care even less than the first time i seen this now.


Buhbye.

[mbravo]

You cared enough to write a reply, dumbass

[Mantel]

This is a new and exciting post! I look forward to hearing more!

[mbravo]

i look forward to waffles in the morning

[Hitchens]

Sorry your friend got suspended for a week. Just bad timing as the GMs' tolerance levels seem to be met due to recent server drama.

[Autotune]

You cared enough to write a reply, dumbass

I said I cared less, not that I didn't care at all. The only dumbass present, is you.

[Klax]

I don't know if i agree with the ban you and your friends got but the way you phrased that post made you sound like a douche.

[Trax]

I was suspended for a week for helping my friend loot his Cazic Skin. I support your cause.

You were raid suspended, a far inferior punishment than an actual suspension. And you knew the rules and that you would have consequences.

The definition of a dumbass is someone with low intelligence, which doesn't apply to me. But by your previous comment I can see it might apply to you.
(your grammar was pretty bad)

I apologize for sounding like a "douche", but I would much rather post a concise and well educated thread as opposed to what I normally see on here.

Fuck these kids are mad lol

Three things:

1) Fewer people on EQ means more people out, doing social things in the real world. One might argue that without EQ some might find something else, but others would take their translucent asses outside and interact with the general public for once.

2) Someone just robbed a bank and you are standing outside. Before they hop in their getaway cars, they hand you a bag of money. Before the police arrive you start stuffing that cash in your pockets. Now the police arrive, catch you and the robbers, then put you all in cuffs. Please explain to me how this situation is any different (as far as guilt) than the one you describe (regarding your friend "simply looting").

3) The punishment should always exceed the crime. This serves to discourage others who may want to follow suit in the future. The sentence has already been passed, so stop bitching and get on with life. Maybe this will give you and your buddies an opportunity to get together and drink a few beers (hell, even laugh about this). It's only one week and it's only one game - none of this will impact the rest of your life.

Sir, I don't think you quite understand what Miranda Rights are...

[mbravo]

They're rights a citizen has, and are sometimes quoted by law enforcement before an arrest

[Diggles]

you're not being arrested in a emu, you're being kicked out of the country club

[mbravo]

you're not being arrested in a emu, you're being kicked out of the country club

Thanks, I'm glad to know I can't be arrested in an EMU

[mbravo]

You also aren't a citizen.

Let's stop and consider someone did read you the Miranda Act in an mmo.

When you find an attorney to represent you in a court of lawl, let me know. Last I heard Abacab and Swishahouse weren't practicing anymore.

And you sure as shit aren't exercising your right to remain silent, but I've got a lovely bunch of coconuts that could fix that.

actually Swishahouse is going to represent me in the "house of lawl"

[bman8810]

I just hate that you banned me for a week

...

Correct, but the point I was making was that nothing you said was going to change the conviction - you were guilty of abusing game mechanics. Miranda Rights would have protected you from self-incriminating post-crime. As such, considering that Amelinda already knew you were guilty and she is judge-and-jury it didn't really matter what you said.

[username1337]

1) All GM decisions are final.

2) You won't win arguing against GM decisions. If you argue too hard then you'll just be banned. They really do not care.

3) If you don't like it then leave. You aren't required to play here and nobody cares if you do or not.

4) Complaining on the forums won't change anything. The community does not care and it will not change the system. Deal with it.
