Regarding the Revision of the Prohibited Activities and Account Penalty Policy

Am I the only one who has at least a modicum in trust in GM’s etc to not abuse this lol?

Idk it’s rare for me to defend dev decisions lol, I usually disagree or I’m indifferent. But I feel like thinking these new rules are going to be used to ban everyone with an opinion is maybe a bit of a knee jerk reaction. I highly doubt anyone is going is going to get banned for saying ‘I’m sorry but I disagree because [Logical Reasoning]’.

Now, if you said something like ‘ur opinion is worthless because you’re x on DPS list / a specific race or job / less well geared / etc’. Then you’re not really disagreeing with them, are you? You’re disagreeing with some arbitrary aspect of that person and not their opinion itself.

Basically, you can disagree with people, but don’t be a bastard about it. Is that really such a bad thing to ask lol?

Hopefully this makes it easier for them to deal with harassment / stalking / abuse etc that they had trouble with before.

So yeah, I understand why people would be worried that the new ‘rules’ can potentially abused. But I disagree that adding them will affect normal players in any way. If you do get banned, I’d like to assume there’s a reason for it lol

I have 0 trust in the GM's to not abuse this... because it is vague and leads them to have to make calls based on....their personal feelings. How is that fair or consistent at all?

Reading some of the comments in here, it actually surprises me how much people blindly trust in authority. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It's more a case that I know I behave myself. I also know that losing a game account, no matter how much time I've put into a game, is meaningless in the grand scheme of things.

If these were laws that were about to go live for my country or town, I'd have a different mindset.
