If you're going to change names based on them violating the rules make it linear and do it across the board.

Since we seem to be on the wave of cleaning up Red's players names and server population is on an upswing and GMs seem to be trying to make red an all around better place and not just a place for griefers

Two things that have always bothered me about Player punishment is Due Process and Repeat offenders.

I dont get involved in a lot of punishment so I admit I have only heard 2nd hand accounts of punishment. I have never been suspended and currently unaware of anyone i know that is suspended. However It seems that Punishment is quick to be served and then questions are asked after. GMs are busy and I have heard it can be a process to clear your name after punishement was handed out

Player X did something and Player Z reports and paints a picture or presents truncated logs/fraps. Player X gets suspended with out even being questioned or to tell their story or present their logs/fraps.

Like i think it would go a long ways if GM ws like " Vanco there is a fraps of you training ereni over and over. It looks pretty damning but do you any of your own fraps before i suspend you.


Repeat offenders- its not a huge issue but its known that its pretty easy to break a rule, get suspended and just log on another character.

I compare it to driving a car. If you do someething to get your car/license suspended you cant just jump in your friends gremlin and drive it. ANd if you do and get caught you eat stiffer punishment.

I used to be a griefer on other servers and loved it but i found that i actally enjoy havng a bigger population and more people to play with than just me and my other scrum friends

Any thoughs, comments, questions.

yo dude how do matt damons nuts taste?

A decent number of free MUDs (Aardwolf being a great example) post exactly why someone was banned.

They're allowed to reroll on the server, but their main character and any other characters involved are banned as well as made public. There's a history too.

A Legends of Kesmai emulation server I used to play on back in the day also has an entire section devoted to Crime and Punishment (except bannable offenses were permabans with no chance to reroll).

OGame (a freemium browser based game) also publishes crimes and punishments.

It doesn't make much sense to me to not publicize this information. I feel like its an overall boon to the community to be regularly reminded that the staff are watching. Instead of what I understand red had been like for such a long time where everyone crapped on the rules because nobody was ever punished in any significant manner.
