This is by far and away the most stupid decision ever made in my time in this game. 

You couldn't firmly pinpoint the people who caused the attacks? YOU? The admins. Wow. Swag. Totally. 

Ok, I simply don't get this. Someone shot someone. The dead person was someone you didn't want to be killed. So....DD the offender(and if you feel like it, revive your friends)? Pretty sure the 'order givers' wouldn't get another 'order follower' to do their killing for them,wouldn't you think?

Why would ze gawds be concerned about where the 'orders' came from and indulge in such a knee jerk reaction to 1(2?) Consig account(s) getting dropped? 

Sad to see Squishy and the admins loosing it like this. Not a pretty sight.

I thought it was halloween not april fools. This is a pretty shitty trick..

The shitty tricks have been played by the 303 on MR itself. 

ps .. you  missed one Squishy.

Nothing kills a game faster then when admins do the dumbest shit possible, like this. So let me get this straight you clowns killed OJ for the killing of the account. But now you (fucking genius you are btw) decide we just need to single out every single player that represents a group and just kill them off. I DONT NEED TO PROVE IF THEY HAD ANY KNOWLEDGE OR ACTIONS IN THE ACCOUNT KILLING. naaaaa id rather just kill off every single person and be done with it. Ok so skip that ludicrous logic, because thats what it is. How in the hell do you think any player that would after all this want to waste their time or money on your game that admins clearly use their power and influence to play. NOT want to kill your help-desk team now that you have shown your a waste of air? Hell personally id rank up just to shoot your help desk members. Because i know you will yet again do the dumbest move and bring them back to life, showing you do whatever you want when you want. Now im sure someone will make the comment "well its their game they can do whatever they want" Well guess what sweetheart there's things you do and you don't do when you try to run a business/game. Admins have broken those boundaries.   I still cant wrap my mind around the fact you morons just singled out an entire group just because they were a group.  Guilty until not proven so. nice job. 

I would like to point out those that are not involved/spoken to Izzy are no longer dead...

No one was missed. a bunch have been revived...

yes, they were.

I don't know what a 303 is. I don't know who is 303 or not 303. Nor do I care.

It seems, to me, that the simplest solution to prevent revenge against staff playing accounts, is simply to prevent staff from having a playing account.

You want to take a break from being a staff member and play? Cool. But your staff account is put on the shelf until your playing account dies. You want to get away from being a player? Cool. You get your staff account back but cannot create a playing account.

Otherwise, any time a staff playing account dies, the person that kills them could, conceivably, be DD'd for "revenge". It's absolutely asinine.

To those saying having an admin/HD account means a player shouldn't be able to play, stop being an idiot. For how long have there been players who double as admin/HD and people have not been DD'd? 

And you want to know why? Because the people in power didn't shoot someone's player account simply because their friend was DD'd or because admin made a decision that they didn't agree with. Players of this game are supposed to be fucking adults not little kids crying every time a decision is made and trying to belittle and berate the decision makers in public forums. Rather you act like an adult and speak to those making the decisions in a private PM or MM and discuss it like adults. 

If you shoot DS for a decision Izzy made then you deserve to be DD'd, if you can explain that your shot on DS was because he disrespected you in the streets/IRC/war casualty then you won't be DD'd. How is that hard to understand? Cory_Chase you spent however long begging Izzy to revive your character, "almost in tears", because you know the actions were wrong. You tried to lie about your reasons for killing Izzy's playing character, the fact that your decision had a more than substantial element of revenge you deserved a DD be a man and take it on the chin. 

Goodfellas, stop hugging Cory's nuts kthxbai. 

Then the fact that the 303 stragglers are acting like Izzy is in the wrong, look at yourself and consider all the times Izzy has helped you and ask yourself if you're being fair to him. Consider everything that has transpired in its entirety. Had you been owner of a game, and witnessed what was transpiring what actions would you have taken? 303 were leaders of the game, they are expected to lead by example. You as Godfathers openly disrespect the admin, what kind of precedent does that set? Stop being unreasonable...

So, let me get this straight, in a game based on the mafia, where you ought to be able to shoot someone for any reason, we now need to justify to Izzy WHY we took a shot at someone?

That's your definition of fair?

What's next, do I need to justify why I pp'd a HD's player account? Why I didn't invite them to an OC? Why I busted someone else out of jail and not them?

"I don't like them." used to be all the answer that was required when you shot someone. Now we have to prove a negative.

This precedent basically makes staff playing accounts unkillable. All it takes is the barest hint of a whisper that it was somehow motivated by "revenge", and now you're DD'd.  It's an absurd level of protection. 

It makes me sad to see that this is what the game has come to. I'm all for making sure that staff members aren't disrespected, or threatened to do things on their staff accounts. That makes sense.

But this? DDing people for playing the game as it was intended? This is gross. 

Vodquila, are you intentionally being obtuse?

Just like the mafia in real life, you go around shooting Government/City Officials you will bring down the wrath of all hell. I think DDs for all the 303 shot callers, until they can prove that they're innocent is nowhere near what could of happened. Just like in real life there are RICO charges, if you're the head of the empire/shot caller then you call the shots and you receive the punishment. 

So, let me get this straight, in a game based on the mafia, where you ought to be able to shoot someone for any reason, we now need to justify to Izzy WHY we took a shot at someone?

That's your definition of fair?

YES! If you shoot at an admin's player account simply because another admin DD'd their friend, then attempt to shroud it in "ohh you were like uber IA too" clearly shows - you do not have the maturity to be in a leadership position. Admit what you've done when you've been caught, it would definitely help how people outside of your friendship group view you and how the person dealing with punishments may handle it. 

What's next, do I need to justify why I pp'd a HD's player account? Why I didn't invite them to an OC? Why I busted someone else out of jail and not them?

Stop being an idiot!

"I don't like them." used to be all the answer that was required when you shot someone. Now we have to prove a negative. 

As I said if DS, or another admin, was shot because he was not liked/disrespected someone/war casualty then the accounts in question would not be receiving DDs. BUT, we know that is not the case they were targeted because they're admins. Be it wholly or partly. 

This precedent basically makes staff playing accounts unkillable. All it takes is the barest hint of a whisper that it was somehow motivated by "revenge", and now you're DD'd.  It's an absurd level of protection. 

WRONG! This does not making staff playing accounts unkillable, it makes those who are going to throw tantrums have to face punishment. I'd say that is more than reasonable.  

But this? DDing people for playing the game as it was intended? This is gross. 

Please tell me how you would this as a game/business owner? Would you willingly let a group of individuals disrespect you in public? Would you let said individuals shoot the playing accounts of the individuals who are helping you, because they don't like the decision you made?

You wouldn't, so why do you expect Izzy to?
