All this talk about community...

[Skivvy]

I see your point and I have wished before for a DF blacklist (though I realize this would be unfeasible) with the hopes that trolls and asshats will get blisted to the point that they have to make a new character and change their ways if they want to dungeon ever again. But we are talking two 'sizes' of communities, for lack of a better word. You (and perhaps the OP) are speaking of a server-wide community; I am talking just of the community we create within the FC or LS (honestly, because I don't see everyone on the server getting along with each other.)

Sorry for my earlier snark. The hormones be crazy today, so I should probably just stop typing after this... D: But yeah, having a good group of friends to do things with really does make everything much more tolerable and enjoyable. And while I do tend to suggest that as well (find friends/people of like mind, etc), it's not always the easiest of things to do. DF does not help this as if you do run across someone you really like, there is a good chance they won't be on your server. :/

Here's the TLDR summary.

Those "ancient" games have done plenty of things right. Why not implement things that have worked in the past?
