    I don't know if this line was intended to be a jab or not, but I was completely content in Haze (you can ask Tynon, I turned down an invite the other day) until these issues started to arise. When I saw the inevitable destruction on the guild, I high-tailed it out of there, knowing there was nothing I could do to fix it.

    So far as "It's just part of the game" being acceptable, it isn't, but it also isn't the responsibility of the company to reprimand someone for a poor choice they made that was well within the parameters of what their rank allows them to do. It's up to the players who were booted to seek out their revenge in whatever way they can, not the game to punish Mick. He didn't exploit a bug or hack the system to do it. Those are pretty much the only time a game should step in and punish someone for their actions.

    So far as if there were rules posted anywhere or consequences for breaking them, I'm not positive, as I am like every other American ever presented with a form in their life that isn't an Attorney. I look for the signature box or check box and move on without reading. It's quite possible there was a ToS or a code of conduct when we signed up, that doesn't mean everyone read it, it just means everyone checked a box that said they did. I checked beta.tynon.com and could not find a link to any ToS or rules on there, however, so that may need to be something Tynon will have to look into in an attempt to clear up any future questionable actions by a player so that the other players know if it was something against the rules or if the guy who did it is just a douche by nature.

    First, I just wanna say that it most certainly was not a jab. Trust me, if I have a problem with someone they know about it. I'm being sincere.

    The questions about the rules and stuff were't so I could don the bifocals and put together a Supreme Court case... I just really would like to know. I'm like you, I just sign and move on too... It's like that episode of South Park in that regard...

    I know I am making a big deal out of what many see as "nothing". But it's not nothing if it happens to you. You chose to leave, the others didn't.

    I agree that bug exploits, hacking, and yes even language should be the primary focus of the Game Operators. I like the term "Questionable Actions". I'm asking if there might be a system where "Questionable Actions" could be heard. I know it would take manpower and time to do so, but it makes sense to me. Since so many want to compare this to other games... I play (sometimes) a free online game that has a player based review board. Once a player is "REPORTED" they review the report and submit punishment or whatever.

    If we had a similar mechanic here, the community could govern itself. A player could have their reputation lowered as a punishment, for example. Or even be demoted if the infraction is deemed serious enough. Repeat offenders before the board of review could even face a temporary ban. Anything more than that should come from Game Operators. If a player decided to be a jerk and knows they could face consequences, they may think twice.
