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.

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

I think this is genuinely fine. BUT when we put up reports they need to be handled quickly and rule breakers need to be punished. Slap around a few powergaming / meta gaming bans 1 week or so and this stuff should start regulating itself. Staff can’t ***** out of reports if this is the play.

this isnt fine at all lmao 

have you not seen how many players just get in conflict then say ‘im waiting for a mod XD’ and waste everyones time for 30 minutes?

im just gonna tell people i dont want to co-operate and go about playing for 2 more weeks before the gm team claim the report on me XDDDDDDDDDDD

we used to have people called global moderators who resolved player conflicts

MODS DO NOTHING THEY LEGIT DONT MODERATE PVP, RP, ISSUES ANYTHING THEY DO NOTHING

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

not to be like “ur fault” on you, but how come you didn’t copy paste stuff to a document off the server as a back up?

Daniel sighs deeply, turning his half gaze downwards, a sad look taking over his features as Flemius tells him of the sad news. “War is already horrendous enough – but succumbing to the sickness sweeping this land... His last days must have been worse than death itself.” He wonders whether the poor Haense man’s family had fallen ill from his return home, sending Flemius off to try and gather information about them, so that he may offer his services.

Daniel’s eye was just watering, he was not crying. It was just the pocketful of onions he happened to have on him that day! He does appreciate the drawing of him, though, studying it with a smile.

Doctor Daniel sends note to the author of this thesis, the details of this letter requesting a peaceful discussion about the two acclaimed diseases of the realm, so that he may be further educated on the dangers and effects of Rye.

“How....how exactly is it spread Doctor Daniel?” Edyth would ask, a concerned tone to her voice! 

“More research must be done, as the process is still uncertain. After the plagued city is captured, I’m sure it will be much more apparent!” Daniel answers the worried Edyth, giving her a reassuring smile from behind his protective equipment.

ON THE PLAGUED HAESENI

As reported to the Ducal Court, Doctor Daniel of the Danielson medical and mercenary company.

---

In the first days of the past year, troubling news was reported to the Ducal throne of deadly sickness among fellow Highlanders. By Godric’s just command, the doctor Daniel and his assistant, Ralph were dispatched at the first snows, 1742 in an attempt to understand this epidemic. In deep cover, his loyal subjects discovered grave news on the subject; this understanding having been recounted the eve of 1743 to the Ducal court, and recorded for public enlightenment.

By the report of Dr. Daniel, the disease has been traced to have begun in the city of New Reza, Haense. Beginning first among local rye-farmers, it is noted to have quickly spread to the city center, from which outward trade spread it as far as the Ruberni crossroads within a fortnight. Its rapid spread in Haense is theorized to have been caused by a variety of factors, among them naturally inferior physique and a disturbing lack in both faith and willpower. Not only this, but the act of cramming every man, woman and child within the city’s square at the first mention of danger gave birth to its numerous hosts, and with the city under siege, who knows the lengths at which this sickness has developed? Among its victims, the most commonplace symptoms include a wracking cough, severe hallucinations, a sudden failure of the limbs, loss of actual speech and devolving to a grunting beast. Men who succumb to it are even open to consuming dirt, happily doing so once suggested. As such, it has been deemed by the nation’s foremost physicians as a plague of the utmost severity.

To combat this virus, known herein as the MARIAN PLAGUE, a national prescription has been issued by the Ducal Court; Ashwood and incense burnt twice daily before one’s doorstep to keep away Marian humours; three measures of lungwort weekly, to protect against the cough of Haeseni peasantry; one measure crushed rye seeds, combatting the illness’ origin; two measures macerated oak bark, fortifying the body against black biles; one measure animal fat to be taken with each meal, solidifying the body’s blood; and one cup Serpent’s Stalk tea fortnightly, cooling the body and reducing yellow bile. Under no circumstances should the infected areas be approached without proper preparation. At the least, one should cover their nose and mouth with a thick cloth, ideally dipped in a fragrant substance.

Writ en Namen De

-Godric

Doctor Daniel notes down on a piece of paper as he sits within his Rubern study, murmuring about the Haensetic plague more and more. “I must inform Duke Godric of this... I am worried this could sweep the nation!” he concludes, setting off for Morsgrad.

? 

think its an awful change and will only be used in selective circumstances when it benefits the moderation team but spamming ‘free hong kong’ and drawing a parallel between china and lotc anywhere past a fleeting joke is ludicrous 

Daniel practices his kicking technique, trying to remember back to what Risky Ralph had taught him. “HIYAA!” he repeats as his mentor had cried, as he shadow-kicks at the wall.

Daniel smiles as he sees Titus smile, also laughing aloud into the sky!

ben happens to stand infront of dan and also at the same exact time holds up his own sign with a drawing from olden times  covering dans

daniel is really flustered by this and asks ben “please move”

Daniel sneaks into the crowd, wearing a hood, and listening to the speech. Mid way through, he suddenly holds up a sign:

“HAENSE DIE” it reads in bright red, poorly written letters. He quickly takes off before security attacks him!

daniel sends in a letter to apply

“i’d like to apply”

little tip when taking screenshots – turn ur fov down to normal otherwise the image just looks really strange with an odd focus

only thing is you actually have to enforce this and have people willing to enforce it, which hasn’t been the same for every other change you’ve made on the server

dont just make this big post about a huge revamp to the way staff works and vanish for another 6 months because nothing will happen and people will just be dissappointed in you even more than they are

glad it’s started getting through to you regardless of whether this post achieves anything

LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOO
