Be it what it may, I've seen a marginal increase of players rather than drop of them myself. I'm fairly sure that a drop of 10 players would be fairly notable, especially when only one of them appears to be talking. And yes, I say marginal, I'm not preaching of miracles.

And if you have no further interest into SCoD, please proceed to the exit, take a break and if your mind changes, feel free to return. Because as you've adequately displayed, you have little interest other than to produce ill will for the denizen of SCoD, which is at best biased perspective as you've also been fairly good at making it clear that you have difference in opinions. Not to say my perspective isn't biased obviously, but my desire is that of the good of community rather than one of its demise.

Also! Further proof that we're hardly censorship community. :P

A player was banned without any guidance or direction on how to better fit in with the server. This community is small. I'm somewhat ashamed the best we can do is shove some player off the server rather than coming together as a community of staff and players to work it out and find a better solution. Sad!



Also, FYI, Players make just as much rumors about the harshness of the staff just as they do the harshness of a fellow player's RP. The tone of the DM/EMs in reply to this thread... leaves much to be desired imo.

Quit catering to the sob story. It's just a berk trying to garner ill will toward the server because he's being pissy. It's actually kind of shitty to try and make the staff look bad because they don't want to air his dirty laundry for the whole community and are being as respectful about the whole affair as they can.

This is not exactly new behavior from what i've observed here.

The player was in-fact adequately informed of the reasons. The nature of the reasons are something anyone could easily choose not to practice, without any training, learning or reading involved, as the act of doing the thing in-fact requires more conscious effort to do, than not. It's not that the player isn't capable of fitting in the server, they themselves chose to leave on their own, not removed by mechanical matters completely (exception of temporary ban, as they themselves already said, emphasis on temporary).

One thing people also need to understand that bans are very rarely distributed for a singular instance, the singular instance may be a triggering event, but almost always there is a past that lead to this point. One which includes plenty enough evidences to go by. If things seem sudden, it's only because it's not made a public display by staff. Infact, this topic wasn't started by staff either, but obviously it will be responded by necessity, because it'd be rather daft not to.

Eddy -- Cut the shit? I'm not the one accusing people of "spewing bullshit" and posting "salt memes." Take a hard look at how you're presenting yourself... it comes off as super harsh. I'm sorry to say this man, but there's ways to present your argument without seemingly harassing people.

Mr. O -- The OP of the thread clearly wrote "... after a temporary ban of a few of the other demons and me, which after several tries wasn't really explained..." If this is the case, then how can as you put it the issue have been "in-fact adequately informed of the reasons"? Am I missing something here? To me it seems like it wasn't adequately explained based on the OP's statements.

Well you can choose whom to believe, but I'm going to stick by my statement. Meaning that one of us is lying. :P Only thing I can say is that the issue is incredibly clear cut that there's pretty much no room for not understanding it. But I'm not going to state what was the rule broken, that's between the staff and Untaramar. If they feel that they need better explanation, they are free to contact the staff about it. But I doubt they do, if they did, they would have done that already, instead of going to a tirade here.

Ok thanks Mr. O. This is just a sort of topic that hits close to home for me. Being banned with little notice and vague or no clarification is an important issue for me. Particularly when all your player "friends" were really reporting you behind your back or voting against you instead of actually trying to help you fit in.

I'm not trying to say this is a problem on Scod, just that I've seen it in a lot of communities and I think it's a very serious issue that should not be taken lightly.

*Ren blinks at all the side thoughts chattering around her and nods to the demon as he steps through a portal. The image of a little girl breaks out of the crowed and runs with hand extended to hug or say farewell while a woman and an elderly man watch on. The woman's face does not change, but the man giving a smile, a nod and a wave. All just images in the crowd."

It was fun RPing with you!
