THE GREAT ADRIAN DUMA OF 1745

12 S.S.

Albert Myre declares for the Ducal candidates to nominate themselves.

I. ELECTION OF A DUKE

The assembled Electors were called upon to swear an oath of fealty to the Duchy of Adria and the principles of Adrian Tradition. These Electors, duly assembled by Ratibor Ratispora, having come together with the intention of re-establishing the Duchy of Adria, set to choosing for themselves a new Duke who might lead them. 

After a brazen speech made by Ratispora in support of his opponent, the vote tallied thus; 

JOSEPH CLEMENT DE SARKOZY - XIII

RATIBOR RATISPORA - IV

Holding a clear majority of the Electors, Joseph Clement de Sarkozy is named Eleventh Duke of Adria, and promptly names Ratibor Ratispora as Lord Castellan of Renzfeld. 

II. FATHER OF THE PEOPLE

The second motion, proposed by Duke Joseph, seeking to lay the honorific title Father of the People upon Ratibor Ratispora.

This motion passed by a unanimous majority.

III. THE FRANCISCAN ARTICLES

The third motion, proposed by Duke Joseph, seeking to readopt the amended Franciscan Articles. The Fransiscan Articles shall serve as the instrument of government for the realm, being the rights and privileges of the Duke, and the Duchy.

AMENDMENT I:

Proposed by Porphyre Nicephore, this amendment seeks for the inclusion of the Tavern Lord within the Franciscan Articles, and reserves for them the right to an Aldermen’s seat upon the Duma in perpetuity.

AMENDMENT II:

Proposed by Porphyre Nicephore, this amendment seeks for the Duchy to lay claim to the County of Auvergne in perpetuity.

This motion passed by a clear majority.

IV. ADRIA COMPANY

The fourth motion, proposed by Duke Joseph, seeking to charter the Adria Company, under the leadership of Red Roger. The Adria Company is charged with bringing prosperity to the Realm, by both sales of goods, and the production thereof. Red Roger, by this charter, is held by the Duma to supply grain for the grain-dole of the Duchy.

This motion passed by a vote of six ayes, to four nays.

V. A FEAST

The fifth motion, proposed by Red Roger, seeking to commission a feast for all the Realm, to be held upon the inauguration of City of Renzfeld.

This motion passed by unanimous majority.

VI. CONCLUSION OF THE FIRST DUMA OF THE REIGN OF JOSEPH, 11^th DUKE OF ADRIA

The sixth motion, proposed by Duke Joseph, seeks to conclude the duma.

This motion passed by unanimous majority.

A letter is delivered by envoy to the sprawling list of voting members, to wherever diverse places they may find themselves, and published publicly for those who cannot be found at all.

DEAR SIR OR MADAM,

I thank Mister Ratispora for his considerate invitation.

The accomplishments of my lord father shall forever paint their own niche upon the tapestry of man. Adrian Leopold, being Duke of our restored realm, was called by Providence to assume a far greater responsibility of state. At the demise of the late Alexander II, he was declared Lord Protector of the Realm, and charged with the most supreme of responsibilities; the restoration of a fallen Empire.

In time, my lord father would fulfill his duty. Taking up our people from their country estates, he found Helena a ruin, and left it a ruby; honoring the fair lady’s graces, and also her profound reputation as the gem of all humankind. Together with the Count of Harlingen, he established the Imperial State Army, the remains of which had been splintered years earlier by the Dissolution of the Legions. Tending towards his reforming spirit, he fostered over the first session of the Imperial Senate, and in his most profoundly lasting of edicts, declared that the separation of judiciary and government be codified in law.

My lord father’s subservience to the good of his countrymen was cut short only by the mortal wounds which he received while scaling the walls of Moch-Orc, delivering righteous vengeance for the humiliation which the arrogant orcish tribesmen had delivered just years prior upon one of his subject lords.

Truly, my lord father had a vision for our people. With the collapse and demise of the Pax Orenia, the death and exodus of a great many statesmen and soldiers, ever-benevolent Motherland called for eminently capable men to service Her Holy Orenian Empire. If no others would rise to the occasion, it would be the Adrian people who would come to Her aid in the finest hour She faced.

My lord father’s vision is not yet complete. Even still, the Empire calls for good men to fill Her ranks. I intend to be elected by this venerable body of noble and genteel persons alike, Duke of Adria, my lord father’s son and patrimony, and executor of his most righteous cause.

YOURS IN FRATERNITY,

JOSEPH CLEMENT DE SARKOZY, DUKE OF HELENA

Yikes. I don’t even think this warrants a conversation due to how terrible this idea is. If you’ve played on the server for more than an hour, much less being a moderator or an admin, you’ll know people don’t compromise on this server unless a blue tag tells them what to do. It doesn’t happen now, and will likely never happen between certain player bases. If the issue is as you say it is, that on-site moderation isn’t efficient currently, this is not the solution. You might think this idea ‘encourages wholesome civility between the community’ but it just doesn’t. If anything, it incents people to stay with their little community of people and go out of their way to not interact with certain people. 

 

Edit because I'm dumb and didn't put this – The idea of ‘compromise and working together’ is what the current war rules were based on. It didn’t work.

The very fact that the server is as you say it is speaks the nature of the problem, and why this may be used to address it. It is a problem of entitlement. Mods should not have to be called at the very first instant because of total obstinacy. 
 

If a player has flagrantly broke the rules, and refuses to compromise or makeup for this, inform them they’ll be reported. Finish the RP/PvP and do it if you find it necessary.

Narthok brought up a culture of self-policing; that’s what we should be working towards. It’s idealistic, but it’s better than what we have now.

But what if the RP/PVP is important, lets say a capture of a leader – or an important skirmish. Players would rather it be handled and allowed to play out fairly, than lets say if the sides turned from 20v20 to 20 v 50 because a large meta-rally joined post-pvp, and then as a result of this a leader was captured & promptly killed.

 

The situation happened and a lot of RP around it could happen, but it’ll all be voided & punishments will be handed out in a few weeks time? Most players wouldn’t push for punishment and would just want a moderator to send the rule-breakers away to maintain a fair fight.

 

This system is so idealistic it hurts, because its unreasonable to be enacted in anything that will slightly resemble fair or efficient.

Simply put, that is not a situation that requires an immediate solution. When it comes to a situation as important as the capture of a leader, I don’t imagine the reports would take long, but that’s on the Mods to keep up with the work.

Situations of large scale, like massive rallies and battles, are exactly the types of conflict that I’ve been talking about. Stalling 70 players from action while one GM figures out whether or not the other side meta-rallied does nothing but incense both sides (in practice) and cause them both to simply try and win over the Mod’s opinion in messages. It’s not a good thing to send a Mod into a massive conflict midway through to pause everything while it’s happening. Just let it happen, and deal with the facts afterwards. It’s a game, and it shouldn’t crutch on your ability to lawyer.

If it’s later discovered the other side meta-rallied (via player provided proof) bans are delivered and the RP voided. But when presented with all the facts and information in a cooler environment, with both sides readily able to provide detailed proof of their accusations or defenses, the Mod is able to make a better decision.

It’s idealistic, but once again, the culture couldn’t get any worse. I still believe it’s worth a shot.

But it isn’t different at all.

 

This post, in essence, is saying ‘hey guys, be nice and sort problems out yourselves!’ which is obviously the ideal state of things but given our demographic, platform and just people in general that’s never going to happen. Like we can be positive and optimistic about trying something new but this just isn’t realistic and it’s a testament to the Administration being out of touch if people really think it’s viable.

 

Of course people should treat other people with respect. That goes without saying, but it also goes without saying that things will seldom play out that way especially in a heated situation and especially on a server with this kind of demographic

 

Like you cannot build a system on these glaring gaps in logic. You just can’t.

 

While you’re at it can you remove my warning post? I apologize for my grievous offence of calling this post ‘dumb’ and am sincerely glad this is now the new standard for which we hand out warnings

That is not what the post is saying in essence. What the Administration sees is that the system of /modreq reporting was unsustainable. We’re not saying be nice, we’re saying that you need to try and solve things without immediately calling Mods to do it for you. That is fundamentally different from what you’re arguing.

It is naive to assume this will solve every problem of conflict on the server, but that is not the intention. The intention is to slow down the process, and make players contemplate the necessity of using Mods to broker conflict, and whether obstinacy is the right solution after all. Go through with the RP/PvP, settle down, and make a report afterwards if you deem it necessary. The demographic problem is a new one; it has not always been this way, and the intention is to eliminate the culture of lawyering as it stands.

you signed up to solve issues on the server as a mod and you have the tools to quickly find out about a situation halfway through wtf are you even talking about man

It’s a cultural problem, and most of these situations are not resolved quickly. What happens in reality is a barrage of half-baked information as conflicting players perform theatrics to get their point to prevail over the other side’s own.

Mods do sign up to solve conflict, but they are not signing up to be the first solution to broker deals between players. This culture has done nothing but breed rule lawyering. The policy shift is taking a stab at eliminating that culture of an insta /modreq as the first solution to any problem.

11 minutes ago, Lutai said:

 

If they are waiting for a moderator, and now they can’t, they will just fully refuse to co-operate in the slightest. The only time players like this (a lot of people!) co-operate is when a moderator coerces them via the threat of a punishment. The reason for poor conflict culture is because of the terrible conflict rules, don’t try deflect it to be anything else.

 

You’re acting as if it’s unfair for a moderator to deal with that situation when it is exactly what they applied for. They can hold everything up and search through logs to find the answers.

I agree with you that there are more problems at the root, but rule lawyering and insta /modreqs are a fundamental problem that need addressing. Players were refusing to cooperate with one another as is. We should not cater to that type of culture; you should not require a Mod to broker a deal between groups every time a conflict arises.

This is the culture that the previous system had fostered. The first reaction at a perceived slight was to call a Mod, wait for one to answer, and then wait even longer for a decision made without all the information available.

What I hope for is a change in culture. Do you really need to call a Mod when somebody joins PvP late? Is it that big of a deal to you? Is it worth stalling out RP for 15-30 minutes, while waiting for a resolution? It’s my hope that the new system leads players to contemplate these questions. This might be boomer talking, but there was another culture surrounding conflict before this one become dominant. This culture cannot get any worse, so this is worth a try.

heavy lies the crown...

 

Seriously though, now what’s going to happen is conflicts will boil over for hours with no resolution. They’ll end in reports that stew for weeks longer where players get banned over issues that could have been resolved by a 30 minute moderator decision. I can’t imagine why we’d pressure the community to be more litigious than it already is.

 

Just because something is hard doesn’t mean it’s not worth doing.

This criticism is leveled more at response times, and I hope that we’re up to the task. There’s no way players could stew longer than they currently do.

1 minute ago, Harrison said:

players specifically refuse to work with other players until a GM forces them to so they can stall situations out as long as they can to prevent losing – removing the authoratative figure that says yes or no to conclude this argument will mean nothing will ever be achieved on the server ever

i have been saying this for months, but systematically removing the GM team’s responsibilites until they do nothing at all on the server is such an awful idea

The primary way players stall in the first place is by using the excuse that they are waiting for a mod. Throwing up a /modreq when something isn’t going your way is the easiest way to lawyer the rules on the server, and has bred the worst possible culture for conflict to date. In this system, you are expected to wrap things up on your own, deal with the consequences after.

It is unfair, and I think downright inefficient, to throw a Mod into a situation half way through and demand they solve it on a whim. How these things usually play out is detailed in the OP; each side immediately launches a barrage of information, the Mod has to scan through pages of logs, and ultimately conflict boils over for 30 minutes waiting for a result. It’s a bad culture, and I think one that depends on Mods to nanny situations that otherwise can be solved after the fact, when people have cooler heads and all the evidence is collected.
