PSA on How to properly communicate with GMs by Neno:

I have always viewed the GMs here as law enforcement agents. Even if you don't agree with them just say you do politely and move on. There have been tons of posts here since the server went live about how particular GMs are assholes blah blah. You won't win and you will just make things worse for yourself. They make the calls and if you don't like it you can either just forget about it and go do something to get rid of the stress or you can get tazed, bro.

I'm not saying don't get pissed but instead of trying to attack the GMs or convince them they are wrong just vent your frustrations to a friend or your guild. Just don't attack them either directly in game or publicly because it will never end well. If you feel like you were screwed over and want to talk to other staff members than use the petition forum. RNF really is not the best place to bring up your gripes with the staff because it will just cause you to be heckled by other posters and no one will take you seriously.

For example... last summer the entire raid force that I was part of was moved out of zone and told to not come back for the night. Did I think that was right? No. Was I pissed? Sure. However, I really like playing here so I just logged off for the night and came back the next day. Ever since than I have had many positive encounters with that particular GM.

Also if you do talk to a GM during or after an incident don't cuss them out. Just explain your side and do so in a formal manner. Using things like 'u' and 'ur' or any other type of short hand just makes you look kind of disrespectful and dumb. If English is your primary language than use it to the best of your ability. If it isn't your primary language than let them know that and try the best you can. If in the end after you explained yourself and they tell you "too bad" or "stop talking to me" just drop it and go do something else.

Tell it like it is, not how it makes you look like some poor innocent victim.

I'm trying to keep things organized to run an event and award the winners, and there are 200 people in the zone, with 50 of them trying to be cute and test my patience. Yep, I'm an ass, I shouldn't have held the event, or expected people to follow instructions, or attempted to award the winners without dipshits spamming all of my windows into oblivion. Pretend it was about the spell all you want. That was what got you DTed. The tell is what got you the suspension.
Moral of the story: Don't fuck with Uthgaard. He's a busy man with a temper and far too much work to do to deal with shitheads bugging him.

But more importantly, thanks to everyone who attended, didn't act like 10 year olds, had fun, and congrats to the winners on your levels.

Post screenshots if you've got em.

Do you go into stores and cuss out the people who work there?
Do you go to work and tell your boss what a fuck up he is?
Do you go to church and tell the preacher he's doing things wrong?

Just try to follow the rules. If you fuck up, apologize. This really isn't that hard.
