And the point is? Many MMOs are like that... WWIIOL, I have been banned from at least once, they let me back... I have over 60 TOS violations on their forums they let me back after a limited ban, sometimes after 30days or so. The MMO market is a buisness.. they are out to make money. Even if you bad mouth them and do things they dont like you are a customer, and you do have what THEY want... money. COLD HARD CASH. So much crap, so little quality. |

While I agree totally with your post, it's not exactly what I meant here... What the lead dev does very well is A) claim that he's a world leading authoritay B) Harbour grudges A is self explanatory B needs some explaining, me and a good friend of mine were banned "for exploiting", the real reason was that the dev just didn't like our game style and wanted to ban us for a valid reason rather than upset the community by banning people for what looked like no reason. Naturally we changed IP's and used proxies to get past their forums bans etc etc etc, both got new accounts.. One day I awoke to find that "my forum priveliges had been revoked". This means that you can't access your character page to request a new password(you can't use your own password, they have to give you one...), since it's linked to the foums account. So if you've forgotten your game password you can't play. I created a new forums account to complain about this, and naturally my character just got perma'd, IP banned etc etc etc. in that case the dev had no idea who I actually was, and just banned me for the sheer nerve of asking to be able to access the game, his reply on the matter was "You had full world access, by complaining about the ban you got banned" all further responses were left unanswered. Would you like to play a game like that? 90% of the players who started at beta have been banned in this fashion. The other 10% have left. They EVEN banned cynewulf, the player single handedly responsible for half the accounts sold, most likely. |

Phill,
Its the internet. You have NO rights on the internet. This is the benifit and the flaw. The individual game companies can and often do what ever they want whenever they want. What you did may or may not have been wrong. Do I agree with their actions. Well without knowing the whole story I cant make a judgement. But as for holding grudges. They are people too... and belive it or not, alot of game devs hold grudges with some of the players in their midst. So much crap, so little quality. |

PvP has become more of what it should be lately. Many guilds and players have been working hard to resist the urge to use hired combat NPCs as a trump card, and have been fighting with very limited NPC use. This has boosted the quality of RP, PvP, and gameplay overall. Kinslayer has been doing a great job driving the negotiations, but just as much credit goes to the guild leaders who have been putting aside their desire to "win" everytime in favor of a better PvP experience. No agreement has actually been reached yet, but everyone is trying hard to keep combat NPCs from being a major factor in combat in the interim. |
