Reasons Not to Play This Server

Banned within 13 minutes of posting. Is that a new record?

The OP is certainly a troll, but he makes a couple of valid points.

I seem to remember all major bosses on farm clocks on live. Sorry, without temporarily banning the IPs of the uberguilds, those who are the most active and most dedicated are going to get the bigger bosses.



Good, you remembered to use correct tense this time and not sound like an idiot. Work on the caps lock though...

Why complain that plane trash is on farm status? Those are actually really good exp and decent loot for up-and-coming guilds...



...People want to gain things for themselves...? Really? Who knew?

Most people who accuse people of being greedy are just greedy themselves, but less competent than those they call greedy.



If you complain about things pointlessly, flame GMs, and sound like a complete idiot instead of offering constructive criticism, expect to be permabanned. No one wants you around if you wish to behave like that.



OH NOEZ HE NAMED A BOAT AFTER HIMSELF!!!!!!!!111 THIS IS INCONCEIVABLE!!!!!!1111

To people who have genuine problems or glitches, he's swift and effective. To idiots intentionally training other people, 2-boxers, etc, he's also swift and effective. That's probably why you hate him.

Sure, he's probably made mistakes or acted without complete calm when he dealt with incoherent keyboard jockies like yourself...but who can blame him?

First off i haven't even made it past page 1, I just wanted to quote (or re-quote) this statement. +1, 100% spot on. I love you Mess.

Uth, you've done so much for me in the past 2 weeks, name changes, listened to me telling you about how Ralph was 2 boxing, and then banzoring him, coming by just to chat, always responding to the tells, illusions etc. Your my favorite gm on the server. Fuck the kiddies, they'll all ween on out eventually.

You mean the one on your name that appeared when i clicked "quote" on your post to reply?

Oh noez, I misspelled a few words on an internet forum, I should be shot

Wait, didn't you rip the OP on page one about his grammar?

So how does this work? Grammar is ok to rip on, but not spelling?

Disclaimer: not defending the troll OP, just a judicator of hypocrisy.

Suck the GMs balls or get banned.

Make your choice.

This

I was in a dungeon camping a mob, a player came in and told me he was camping the mob that I had been camping. He quoted "Camps Defined" becaue I was not sitting in the exact room, more around the corner from the mob. (think FG camp)
Obviously I did not want to lose my spawn so I argued, he remained silent and continued to camp my mob. I asked several times, made the proper attempts ended up having to /petition. Upon arriving the GM explained to me that because I had not been on top of its spawn placement, I did not own the camp.
The next day I was back in a dungeon killing mobs for exp. I did a Camp Check and saw that one of the rooms I was able to solo was open. I ran to the camp, cleared the mobs and set up shop. I screen shotted all of this by the way. Then next time there was a Camp Check shouted, I called the camp. In from another room runs a group, who start spamming me with tells about how this is their camp. I was fairly non-responsive as I did not want to argue via text on a video game. As I'm sitting there the same GM from the previous day appears, calls me a douche, and punts me out of zone. (I was folloing the "Camps Defined" thread rules, explicitly, I might add)
When I asked why I was booted I was "being a douche." When I asked how I was breaking any of the rules, I was told to stop crying. When I asked simply what the rules are I was told that if I asked again I would be "Escorted out"
I'm not here pointing fingers or saying whats right or wrong on this server, but from a new players perception, this interaction left a very bad taste in my mouth for the server as a whole, now I still play on it, but I can honestly say that I don't see how acting like that is acceptable behavior to someone who has never proven themself to the GM in one way or another. These were my first two interactions with said GM, I hadn't posted anything on the forums, I am fairly unknown. If you were talking to one of those flamers thats always causing trouble and saying how shitty everything is I can understand. To turn a new player off to the server for no reason than you have a chip on your shoulder and want to be a dick seems counter productive.
and that, there's the door, attitude that all the top end players have just doesn't register with me. Why would you not want more people playing? Why would you not want to make this the biggest EMU ever to hit the server list? Is it really asking that much of your time to simply not talk down to everyone and treat them like the absolutly don't matter?
Please feel free to flame me for having an opinion about this, you won't hurt my feel goods.

I know situations like this are frustrating, but it was no different (and much worse) on live. The official position from SOE was that camps were not recognized and it was up to the players to sort out a dispute. At least on this server, they've gone a step further and laid out some ground rules to prevent what would happen otherwise, and what did happen on live: constant griefing. That may not be what you want to hear, I'm sure you'd prefer that we get out the pitchforks and torches and hunt us some GM monsters. But I can't really blame them if they make a mistake, or come at you with a short temper. I'd be just as annoyed if I was dealing with what my role entailed AND rediculous player-created issues all day, every day. It's the same reason there are so many pissed off cops. Sure your story might be legit, and you might feel it was unfair, but you don't realize that for every honest alibi there are ten more that are just bullshit to get out of trouble. It takes it's toll.
