A bit off-topic, I'd like to complain about a (possible) viper: "Friendship One (viper)", who mined s7 at about 11:41 EST.

Edit: mkay, he's an EiG member now... watch out for him

edit: oupsie-doopsie, seems that it was a case of stolen identity, prolly "Xanth [EiG]". Sorry 'bout that friendship...

Thats ok, Friendship One (viper) was attacking people unprovoked and all in 13, and we have a viper witness to the fact of course. Friendship One (viper) also claimed to be Commander Jameson if anyone cares.

Well, since I was in Unna till now, and I can't possible be at two places at the same time, it wasn't me. It was Homestar Runner - there are two easy ways to find out that it's him:

1.) He's a terrible pilot - he's got no piloting skill and relies on rocket ramming alone.

2.) He's got problems with his plurals - he uses "spys" and "trys" etc.

Anyway, soon there'll be a complete list of Vipers - so it's easy to see if someone is really a Viper or not.

Regards,
Mark (Commander Jameson)

LoL I am not responsible for every evil that happens, you guys crack me up sometimes.

"1.) He's a terrible pilot - he's got no piloting skill and relies on rocket ramming alone."

Buckaroo, you just broke board policy. If I can be cival in these forums, so can you. There are many other forums where you can flame your fellow players, this is not one of them last time I checked.

Laws are made to protect all people, not to cater to your popularity contest. The use of "Homestar Runner" and "Xanth" or any other member of my little group in a negitive way is a violation! This board has rules which I try my best to follow. I am sure it is trying on the forum mod sometimes, but when it comes to the rules, I expect others to follow them as well. I have been haveing multiple problems with a small group particular offenders.

me finds that we need the same rules in-game.

Maybe it will be a better place "sighs"

No you arent responsible for every evil homestar runner, but you are a mayor player in a lot of them. And please dont try to hide your actions behind a smokescreen of following boardpoliccies. You are just taking advantage of every loophole in the law so you can come out on top.

I could say that in real life it would smell like a cop gone bad. But since I dont know how you act in real life, im just putting your "alias" as a cop gone wrong.

//On a sidenote, you can categorize me as a darn goody-two-shoes, good for nothing except getting gutted with the trusty rusty axe of little old korgan.

If you really are in this game to contribute in a positive way "by adding roleplaying efforts to it", then for once, use them to be a good "morally" being also. And not just an evil one. As you know, evil has always been the easy way out.

And stop using those techniques that we all see you use frequently, it will have 1 consequence: nerving of a valk and removing/nerving of the flare. And with this you will lose your precious weapon.

So are you really willing to sacrifce that to be evil? In my opinion you arent, because evil people always want to be the strongest/hardest/fastest and want to have the best gear. So if you continue on your path of despair and utterly doom then you will lose the weapon that you hold true and at the same time will nullify your actions of trying to put an evil side into the game. With as mayor result that everything what you were talking about was nothing more then a smokescreen to justify your actions in stead of actually roleplaying a game.

cheers

PS: I did nowhere even remotely brake the board policy, not even in this one.

The problem with naming names when it comes to behavior that the author of a post dislikes, it becomes an argument and possibly a flame war. Thsi serves no purpose to Vendetta. I have yet to see a player change their behavior as a result of negative posts about them. In fact, the negativity only seems to escalate the problem.

If you find that some sort of behavior is throwing off gameplay, stick to the issue. State in objective terms what the problem is without going into great detail about who or when (because it really doesn't matter from a problem-solving perspective), and suggest in-game solutions.
