Set Me Straight With A PoleHammer, Plunder Bunnies Options

[Meowric]

Time for me to weigh in with my godlike opinions

From what I can see stormcow joined the server and was in full roleplay mode (which is consistent behaviour), then came the comments of burning, rape and, much like The production of Tesco clothing, Child enslavement. However I suppose they are in keeping with such a game - listen to the knight VO on dark forest when he demands that he be 'brought the queen and kill the rest'. Perhaps it's a reference to chess? I hope so. I like chess.

So then comes the 'don't take this too far' - Sooo was this about the rape comments or the excessive roleplay spam in general. If the rapey comments warranted a kick*, then it could have been done here. Still this appears to be a warning. If the 'don't take it too far' was aimed at the roleplaying in general. I'd argue anyone roleplaying, has probably taken things too far already and needs some sort of intervention. Maybe someone should take away their foam axes and have a quiet word over a nice cup of tea.

'10/10/2014 07:43:40 (76561198150324592) Stormcow: Silence Midget Of The Masons!! Go forth and break the kneecaps of the Lion with your hammer '
'Storm, that wasn't midget the mason but midget the admin talking'

- midget the mason admin! This to me appears to be another warning.

<blah blah>
10/10/2014 07:44:17 (76561198150324592) Stormcow: Fool! There is no Admin, Only blue and red!!
10/10/2014 07:44:24 (76561198150324592) Stormcow: The admin is a myth!!

bah this game is set in medieval times, so someone in this era would know the latin administrare. -10 points from Huffle Puff.

then:

"10/10/2014 07:44:35 (76561198043953474) =SM= TurboMidget: Oh, for crying out loud... Storm, last warning. Behave or be kicked "

- well the cryptic use of the word 'warning' makes me think this would in fact be some sort of warning. The 3rd one by my esteemed count

so more flirtatious back and forth.

eventually

10/10/2014 07:47:11 (76561198150324592) Stormcow: Except for that penguin
10/10/2014 07:47:17 (76561198150324592) Stormcow: He will be our tavern wench!!
10/10/2014 07:47:39 (76561198043953474) =SM= TurboMidget: There, out with him

Now I may be reading this wrong, but it was only at the suggestion that penguin be made a tavern wench. This in itself is preposterous - penguins have flippers, can you imagine them serving drinks in a tavern? They'd spill drinks everywhere. They'd also be too short, unless you werelying on the floor trying to get drinks and that normally only happens later in my nights out. Although I concede some sort of strapped on drinks table contraption like they put on r2d2 in return of the jedi might work. Then again it didn't turn out so well for Jabba the hut.

So using my Sherlockholmesian powers of deduction the implications are that there was some flirting going on here and only when stormcow suggested the involvement of a third party (penguin) did the rage of hypothetic betrayal result in a kick from the server.

So in summary:

There were at least 3 warnings before a kick
Penguins do not make good waiters
Never suggest a threesome unless all parties are up for it


rambling on..

Is RP allowed? Yes - there's nothing saying it's not. Although there probably should be. Filthy roleplayers. Get a job and cut your lank greasy hair!
Are rape comments allowed? no rules against them afaik. Especially from context - it's not like the comment was aimed at someone in particular e.g. I'm going to creep out from under your bed tonight and push your poo. Plenty of raferences in game to gangrape that go unpunished.
Was it spammy? yeah quite a bit of text. No one really complained though (for serverwide disruption) and if that's the problem, can always mute or at least say he's being kicked for being a 'spammy mofo'
Were there warnings before the kick? Amongst the flirtatious subtext, yes 3 of them

So there were warnings and the was a kick. If the kick was due to comments regarding 'forced lovin'' then that could have happened earlier in the conov. If the kick was due to spammification then this could have been mentioned.

Afaict the kick was done legitimately after some warnings, however whether the kick should have been made for either rape comments or general spam I don't believe it breaks any particular rules.

The general convo from stormcow didn't seem to break any particular rules unless you're being overly strict on their interpretation.

Finally..



I concede I might have been wrong about my comments regarding penguins serving drinks.

[TurboMidget]

Sonne, perfectly explained. His attitude is what's been getting to me the most. Thank you.

Meow, that was hilarious. You should post more often. Like, a lot more. And on a side note; read Sonne's reply to find out how I got to the decision to kick Storm.

Pfff, penguins serving drinks. Preposterous.

After speaking to a few SM admins, And even looking back over the chat logs myself, I now have to admit some of the language used was a little ... Exercises? Crude? .. Ill put it down to too much happy juice and loss playing with friends, As much as it KAINS me to admit, I think Turbo DID do his job as as admin, All know me and know how I join games while at work and not, I had enough sympathetic messages from SM admins to know many sympathise with my moaning, given what others and more have been up to recently, Ill put it down to my lack of common sense in this case,( ON my behalf) but as expected, I maybe just didn't expect Turbo to take anything I say so seriously, But that is -my- problem, Ill apologise to TM in game for being so prickly and for bringing his integrity into question. Because as much as i would like to be in the right, I believe i was (On this occasion) In the wrong.

But i would like to remind all, As a donation and very frequent player of SM, That I expect a very fair chance and say in all that goes on! Like all other SM supporters. Because there is never else I would rather play while I'm travelling round the world, And if ANY of my own and others roleplay in game effects anybody, please tell us and give us the chance to right it


So formally, Ill apologise to Turboo Midget, But also like to let him know ill still chop his head off in game! : p

Now that's how you should handle things!

[AsDeR]

Chopping off heads? I agree.
Pride is such a bitch good for you for you first steps in overcoming it.

Let's see if we can make some "Humble for 1 day" chips, like the ones A.A. make.

Apology accepted I'll be looking forward to it

I maybe just didn't expect Turbo to take anything I say so seriously

Only partly. My biggest concern perhaps was some 13-year old seeing what you were saying. It's tough, gets attention and soon he'll be doing it too, but without the roleplaying. Throw in another few youngsters and you've got yourself a verbal riot. Not your fault, I know, but it's easier to talk to grown ups than it is to pissed off youngsters.

If a similar situation ever arises, I'll give you a heads up through the steam chat. Should prevent escalation by taking the role-playing out of the equation

Thank you
