"Pugsy is the act of committing Multiple-No RP PVP killings."
Try again...
lying on a br that's blatantly obvious is one thing, trying to lie about what an established rule is is just stupid...

"We routinely go on patrol" literally the weakest excuse for covering up metagaming i've ever seen.

@Fireheart how is one supposed to know if they have a staff blacklist? isn’t it a private list that only staff can see?

@dogbew I would really appreciate it if you could put my thread back up... it really is World Autism awareness Day. I'm pretty sure shutting down people who are spreading autism awareness seems counter intuitive, especially today don't you think?

@Jeiku I'm glad you brought up this point, as it is currently world Autism awareness day, it is important to note that people with Autism are not specifically Mentally deficient or mentally retarded, while they are not mutually exclusive, for example someone who has Autism could be mentally deficient, someone could have a fully capable mental capacity yet lack social skills or have problems with language, or understanding abstract concepts.

I work in the special education field... I'm telling you, intellectual disabilities and Autism are two different things, even from your picture you can see that it says nothing about being mentally deficient, it states, like I did almost verbatim, that they have social problems, problems with communication, relationships, language, that sort of thing. I've worked in the special ed field for 5 years, believe me when I say that I know what I am talking about and I am incredibly passionate about it.
There are people in this community who have Autism, there are people in this community that have family, and even children in one case that I am aware of that have Autism, shutting this down is not only insulting to me, but to everyone else that has been put in a box, or that has been told that their can be no discussion about a major part of their lives cause its 'taboo', and today is about making people aware of that.
or we could sit here and argue about the differences between intellectual disabilities and autism, but I would suggest going back and looking at the thread and its contents again to see if the contents of the thread were in any way bad. if it makes you feel better you can even change the name, but this back and forth about terminology is not only unnecessary and detracting from the conversation, but it also shows a side of the staff that is uncaring and ignorant to a major issue across the world (1 in 68 children in the united states alone are born with some form of autism, and that is in a developed country, think about how bad it is in countries that have no sanitary water, a lack of available food or shelter or medicines!)
to anyone who is reading this:
Look at the work i've put into this and tell me that this is some meme or a troll, double check the information for yourself, do the research, if you do; at least today will have made some kind of difference, and that is what today was meant for, I guess in some small way that would be a victory.

All these people in here like "Oh, uncapped raids, think of all the 50-100 man raids that will happen!" First of all, the entire active population of the server isn't coming to raid you kid. I don't know how people can so overreact to this so stupidly. the largest raid I see actually happening to your tiny freebuild cottages is like 4 people, and even major settlements will only get around 20 if they aren't pvp focused players. pvp'ers want to fight pvp'ers, not people who can't figure out how status's work.
