We've had yet another issue with 303, so it's time to follow through with all the warnings.  From this moment forward, anyone who states they are with 303, or state they were previously of the 303, will be killed from the game immediately, plus random intervals until such time that 1 year can go by without any problems from current or previous 303 members.  Don't want to be held accountable for the actions of your group?  Simply follow the rules, and keep a distance and you will be fine.

 

Thank you for your time, and I look forward to a time where we as a whole don't have to deal with this shit any more.

 

Cheers.

So here we are, 4.5 months ago and 3.5 months ago, I gave like a 19th chance and 20th chance, and now today the drama continues once again.  All current and former 303 members who have gone out of their way to intentionally cause trouble are now on the list to be randomly killed off once they have done enough work so that it stings.

You were warned.  You were warned 37 times.  You were given free passes out the wazoo.  But its not enough, today you want to start rumors?  It must be utterly exhausting living in your world where if you don't get a witness statement, that its easier to assume that its an admin faking a wack attempt, then to assume that maybe users are lazy and didn't kick it up to you, or maybe that the user doesn't like the user who was shot at, or maybe the user sold the damn thing, or maybe the user likes the attackers side better. No, you just assume its an admin sending fake witness statements.  Or worse, you just enjoy stirring the shit pot.

Libel and slander, especially when done by someone in a position of power, causes harm to my reputation, the games reputation, and the user experience as a whole.  I will not stand idle and let paranoid people, especially crewleaders, plant the seed of doubt and pass misinformation as fact.

Reductio ad absurdum.

If you don't get a witness statement on a missed stealthed wack attempt, it must be because the admins are cheating right?

Of the thousands of wacks that take place weekly, how many do the 500 active people kick up to the WS collector on a days average?  All of them?

Of the thousands of wacks that take place weekly, how many get ignored?

Or land into the hands of someone who doesn't like the target.

Or likes the the attacker more.

Or doesn't give a shit.

Or loses it in a sea of other personals.

Or sold it to the warden without seeing it.

Or traded it to get out of jail.

Or waits for a reward offered .. that never happens.

Or simply ignores the 8 mass mails that the city sent in the past 48 hours.

The obvious answer, clearly Occam's Razor, is that since the Admin can send fake personals like 'Peguins dressed like elves stole all your right socks", then it must be the admins on a giant conspiracy to fake a stealthed missed shot.  But please, ignore the other two witness statements that we did receive because that would be contrary to the conspiracy.

So yeah, sometimes I have to be the bad guy.  Sometime the multiple warnings needs to actually be followed through with.  Sometimes the sanctity of game is more important than the feelings of those who try to hurt it.

Karlos, I encourage you to go back through the multiple threads that were previous warnings and previous peace offerings, the start of this thread is a direct copy and paste from the latest warning (I believe it was the 4th warning?).  There is no one in 303 who doesn't know that the goal is to just move on past this, and that all their slates are wiped clean and all there past actions are forgiven and forgotten if we can just go a period of time without indecent.  Yesterday, their names crossed my desk 3 times.  Two of which were logs, and one was me being told that 303 was being considered to be authed.  Simplicity was killed not for being 303, but for admin accusations.  Morty was not killed yesterday because I do not know how long ago the incident in the logs took place.  I have not killed anyone from 303, but, the option is there and the option is open if/when problems persist. 

You ask why don't I ban them?  Because dealing with ban evasion has proven to be a problem with them in the past.  Its easier to just ask them to leave, and when they don't, execute them.  There is nothing new here, they all knew this is the consequences if problems persist, this isn't out of the blue.

Bobby, you're right.

Its difficult to be emotionless when you are passionate about something (which is probably what incites both sides of this situation).

But in the end you are right.

If this is the case, why is the numbers thing being brought up, and in the title of the thread?

Curiosity being killed and this thread are two different unrelated things.  This thread was posted after the 303 getting authed conversation sparked up logs about morty from earlier yesterday to surface which caused me to post this thread.  The logs were about morty, and old.  I did not act upon them.

No one from 303 has died because of this thread.

After this thread, in a separate incident, logs surfaced of Curiosity, which she was then killed for.  The logs were also about admin accusations.  I am replying to comments about Curiosity because someone posted them in this thread, but that does not mean this thread was about curiosity.
