This post didn't seem like it had anything to do with immersion. A grown man was tired of logging into a game where someone was constantly disrespecting and trying to humiliate him.

The only argument is should he have felt disrespected and humiliated? I don't know, but I also don't see why it is a big deal for someone to stop doing something if their officer tells them it bothers them whether or not the person doing it thinks it is a big deal.

I don't see any of this having to do with immersion, just people's personalities and dynamics getting in the way of a hobby someone enjoyed and it ruining their fun.

wut? raiding is more casual than ever. raids go for like 45 minutes to 2 hours max 4 days a week. 99% of the guild then logs off until the next raid. you can be 80% RA with about 3-4 hours total invested in this game a week. maybe when velious first launched it was hardcore but now it's on the loot pinata express.

i think he means that despite everything in your post, there's still extremely invested people playing alt#4012 until they collapse from exhaustion getting way too invested in this dead, gay free farm server.

Can we get more Empire officers to comment on what's going on with why Rettiwalk was never punished? Why does Cyren leaving excuse this?
