  1. Cowardice seasoned with a bit of hypocrisy

    in General Forum

    Posted · Edited by Passant the Weak

    I, for one, am not asking Eon to prove he is [s]guilty [/s]innocent ([size=2][i]edited[/i][/size]). I have just asked 2 questions in page 2 of that thread, that answering of would probably close the discussion. We are not in a trial here dst, unless I understood your thread wrong. But in a discussion within the community. I remind my questions:
    [quote]Are you using your ALTS to spot activity in different areas so that you know what's hoing on and your main can go wherever there is something to get?
    Have you been using your ALT to record data about shared items abuse in the log room? That benefitted to your main (if you ever got a bounty, that is!)[/quote]

    That would harm nobody to just answer that, would it ? It's just simple questions on what people called out in your initial post seem to have issue with.

    Of course you can chose to stay on general things like "everyone is innocent unless proven guilty", "people will never say they abuse ALTs", "people are coward and complain about nothing", "people can use ALTs for whatever they want they don't have to state how" etc, etc, etc.

    Kyphis, I have nothing to prove. It's like me making an alt to test a thing and once I am done with it I simply let it "rot" somewhere. Do I NEED to have a role for it if I wish to log in once in a while just because I can? Is this really what you're saying?

    If you were in Eon's situation I would just ask you the same question I asked him above. They are fairly simple, and do not force you to tell about a role or whatever. Just state that you are not using ALTs to help main.

    Take all the screenshots you want of my alts walking around. Can you prove their specific goal is to stalk you for my main? That's the thing here, you can't unless I specifically tell you. For all you know Eno may feels a strong connection to the MDA and enjoys walking around the area from time to time. The same goes for anyone's accounts. You have no idea why we use them for the way we do unless we specifically say so.

    Answer those 2 questions frankly and I think the dispute can be easily solved.

    And if you or anyone else using ALTS does not want to answer such questions, then probably, before spamming the council, some limitations to the usage of ALTS logged at the same time should be put in place.

  5. Role of the council in regards to ingame diplomacy

    So yes, yrthilian did what he wasn't supposed to, but he was doing what he wasn't supposed to in response to someone else doing what they wheren't "supposed to". Doesn't make it any more or less right or wrong, but it does change the facts.

    That's where I probably disagree. "What they weren't supposed to do". To me it's not the council to judge that. Unless I understood its role wrong, which I'm likely to! :)

    However I understand the rationale now. It's probably just the wording that sounded strange. I would have perfectly understood something like "yrthilian is considered not guilty because he faced an unexpected situation with what he had in hands", rather than saying tat the 2 others are guilty.

    as for what they said. I think it is interesting that they made a comment on the actions of the others, but it does partially explain why there is no punishment on yrth or anything. Otherwise i would asking why hasn't he lost a trust point or something. In their eyes they are all guilty so there is no punishment. It does however clarify that land laws still apply in this period of no kings... or i think it does.

    Do you mean that the answer to my question is "yes" ? And that the council should also take care of the politics and ingame behaviour of players in regards to land rules and what not?

    Role of the council in regards to ingame diplomacy

    in Questions and Answers

    Posted

    Hello!

    I make reference to this annoucement by the council about the Yrthilan/Azull question (use of King tools after retirement). I have a question regarding the council's role in general.
    [i]Please don't discuss here about the yrthilian/Azull dispute in particular, this is not the subject, and there is another thread for that.[/i]

    [log=annoucement][color="#cccccc"]Ann. 2156 - [2012-01-02 23:16:00 - Stage 11][/color]
    All king items have been removed from the Kings, all King powers have also been removed.
    Azull has been unjailed.
    Our thoughts:
    -Yrthilian is guilty because he used tools although he was not supposed to as he is no longer King, items are allowed to be used by those who possess them though.
    -Kiley is guilty for breaking the land rules put in place by the former king.
    -Azull is guilty for not fully thinking about what his actions meant.
    Past what we, the council, have already done, we will take no further action.[/log]

    While I understand that the coucil voices his opinion/judgement about yrthilian (he is using tools from the game that are subject to game rules/regulations), I was suprised that the coucil voiced his opinion about Kiley and Azull actions. Those actions are to me pure ingame actions, involving nothing related to game rules. I would have thought that this is not council responsibility to decide whether those actions are legitimate or not.

    My question: is the council to raise opinion about diplomatic/ingame policy? I looked for a definition of the council role, but did not mange to find one.

    Thanks!

  12. Make Land Loyalty decrease AP only for citizens

    in New Ideas

    Posted

    Amber, I would agree with you ifthe bonus was based on visits madein the land. But that was discussed elsewhere as xrieg pointed out. Here, it is the citizenship that grants the bonus, which to me means the land recognizes you. loyalty is probably inaproprate word, yet it makes a bit of sense. you could always find a good real live analogy to translate that "loyalty". For example, as a citizen, you get used to (and recognized by) the bureaucracy in the land, which allows you to travel easier. When you lose citizenship, the bureaucracy knows it and makes you feel it

    Pip, my suggestion stands even with no people "forcing" the way to several citizenships. Even for loyal people who change their citizenship in their MD life, I believe the bonus should be granted only to their current land. That's why i suggest an ingame mechanism.

  13. Make Land Loyalty decrease AP only for citizens

    in New Ideas

    Hello,

    After a bit of time experiencing the viscosity system, along with the land loyalty bonus, I'm fairly convinced that Land loyalty should be counted only for current citizens of the land, when it comes to calculate AP needed to move from one place to another.

    Currently you get the loyalty bonus for any land you have been member of in the past. That does not sound right to me.

    I know some people think differently, but this is how I see things:
    - you get an AP bonus because the land recognizes you as loyal to it and becasue yourself have accumulated days as citizens that make you familiar to the land
    - if you leave the land, it considers you have chosen another land to love and it does not grant you the AP bonus anymore (however your loyalty still exists somewhere, just does not grant you teh AP bonus)
    - if you come back to the land eventually, your AP bonus is re-activated.

    I know some peope of the east claim they are still loyal to their former land, but to me they are not different from other people who change their citizenship: one day theywere offered to join Mur's troops orstay in their orginal land. they have made their choice.

    Feel free to contradict me! That won't change my mind though, and I'dloveto see that suggestion implemented.

  19. Discussion regarding Alliance Hidden Forums

    in General Forum

    Posted

    To me you should keep it simple:
    - keep running alliance forums as you do, one leader and one deputy tat can take over if something happens
    - whatever happens to the alliance is not your business: you keep current leaders for forums as long as they don't ask for a change, and you do no grant access to anyone if appointed forum leaders don't ask. This shall stay even if alliance is taken over for whatever reason
    - if a dispute occurs between new alliance leader (for example after a take over) and "legacy" alliance/forum leader, then you still do nothing....but create a new private forum should the new alliance leader ask for it.

    TK sponsorship still stands.

    Just a side note, I had no intentions on judging any result. I just wanted to make sure there were actual submissions.
