Player above server rules?

So basically, punishment should depend on how likeable someone is rather than the facts of what happened.

The most unique part of the EverQuest p99 experience is how important your reputation is. It just doesn't matter in any other game like it does here. None that I have played at least. So Yes, I would argue that it is something to consider when handing out punishment.

Hyjal was blacklisted, and if I remember correctly, it was due to an agreement that if Awakened kicked him, AM would not let him join? Something along those lines? But I can say if I was a guild leader, I would absolutely give him a chance. I really don't know what kind of punishment he got from the GM's. If I had to bet, i would probably say it was less than Furoar's punishment.

Riptoes was gkicked from AM. I'm not certain about this, but I think Detoxx was going to boot him when he was available to do so, when this all went down he was at work or something? I remember this guy not having a stellar reputation before this occurred. I specifically remember being offbut by this guy. I don't remember anything about the guy after this all went down, but i imagine nobody would be willing to give him a second chance. I wouldn't.

Then it looks like precedent is set. The gravely-throat obese retard is going to kick the lisping pedo-sounding retard.

I stopped in to get my Blue99-drama fix, snacking on popcorn. I choked when I saw the above quote.

Twochain, I was giving some of what you posted a half nod until I hit this. It is the biggest crock of shit to hit these forums in a bit. Who are you trying to fool? The new people on the server? Dickheads have culminated in large raiding guilds stepping on whomever whenever they please for the duration of this project. With no meaningful repercussions from the guilds they are in. This casts serious doubt on your words in my eyes.

Carry on.

Naww, see in other games, if you are good at it, people will pretty much tolerate you no matter what you do. Competitive games are the worst with this. When I played pro CS, 80%+ of that community was really just toxic ass nerds who had no joy in life. If you think it's bad in p99... it's not. These people are aggressive dick heads.

There's a reason Kelzaraz almost didn't make it into Aftermath from player votes. In any other competitive game, a person such as 95% RA Kelzaraz is going to be let on the team no question.

You can always restart your reputation and reroll, sure. but in my opinion rep matters here more than most other competitive games i've played.

@Riot leaders, there are a few disputes going on now. We all can see in the UN. Instead of acting like little weirdos about the information you do or do not have, JUST SHOW IT. Make us look stupid. Make us look like everything we're saying we are frustrated about it completely wrong, and it's a matter of pixel sickness. Because as it sits now, it just seems as though the strategy to deal with raid disputes is indifference. "We conducted a review on our side and you're wrong" doesn't fit.

There will be a counter argument, and it's not going to be originally posted in RnF.
You will have an opportunity to get your elf drama fix in when it's posted, so hang tight.

Also: I agree with Twochain that Furoars "Loststalker" train is "kind of funny".
It's created some of the most hilarious Koi raids, memes, and vids yet.

That said, if the Evil Lord Arcler did this same act... bet your ass people would be calling for account deletion and eternal damnation back to hell.

Riot is mostly pissed because Furoar got our Bots banned and he can obviously still play EQ behind a VPN. Fine, let Furoar play (he provides competition)... but please give us our bots back.

lmfao please pm to me

I don't think i'd be surprised if Arcler did that. But then again, I don't really know him like that. Don't even know what his voice sounds like. But you bet your ass i'd be laughing about it.

I once caught a week suspension for walking through goblin fort in Warslik Woods.

Times certainly have changed. Maybe I should have donated more.

Popularity and reputation aren't the same thing. Riptoes did not have a bad reputation where it pertained to breaking raid rules. He was kicked so that AM would get a more lenient punishment.

Much like how Furoar won't be ousted because he gets Freedom pixels. That's all it really boils down to. Riptoes was not a playmaker, and so was more expendable. It had nothing to do with reputation.
