A large amount of GM enforced rules will just waste so much more time and promote more whining.

what happens is the GMs eventually get sick and burned out. Then they will start taking short cuts to deal with the difficult situations that lay ahead (trains, LNS violations, depopping mobs, etc)


also: nothing pissed me off more when someone was a shady fuck and would break the rules, then cry to the GM to enforce some bullshit on me.

THANK YOU! This is what i've been asking for for at least 2 months now, someone who can explain the menatlity clearly and use rationality.

Yes, way too many rules being forced upon the players by the GMs will seriously burn out the GMs, but we can't have an FFA on the server, that won't work either. The problem is finding the sweet spot middle ground where everyone can play and the server can prosper.

Training flat out cannot be allowed, and if you leave it up to the players no one will really be punished for it, but on the same hand you can't have the GMs there for every dispute. The Gms need to handle the big transgressions so people know they can be punished.

I completely agree - as little GM intervention as possible.

But, even the way that is phrased, there is going to be SOME amount of GMing that is needed, that is vital to the overall success of the server.

GMs just have to focus on what is imporant, and let the community handle the rest.
