well of course they were following orders. riot or not, rule breakers are still rule breakers. i spammed the **** out of nani for this very reason. the same way protestors should expect to get arrested if they go around breaking random crap in protest.
but to a certain point it becomes less following orders and more ego-ing the players by putting ban messages like "touch grass" or "drink some tea". i understand tensions are high, and these two were most likely already dealing with the stress of having to deal with such a mess, but comments like that were totally inappropriate lol.
@Bethinwonderland@frankdhmind sharing your input on the inappropriate ban reasons? were they just a funny hehehaha, because i (and many others) certainly did not find them funny especially while expressing our anger and disapproval for the server's direction. your bans/punishments were justified, not the unnecessary comments on them lol.
