    Anyone else feel bad reading certain Ban Appeals? People who make mistakes by not carefully reading the Terms & Conditions get to me the most. Particularly Account Sharing and Voting on more than one Account a Day because they didn't apply for the Whitelist.

    I know, I know, it's the responsibility of the player to read them and memorize all the rules. But I still can't help feeling bad for the people who are just ignorant.

    I'm not suggesting that the rules be more lenient. Far from it. But there should be a way to inform people who just press "I accept" cause they want to play right away.

    That being said, I think incorporating the Terms & Conditions in-game with the Light Bulb Quest was a BRILLIANT idea. Forcing people to be exposed to real-life scenarios that might get them banned through a quest with a Medal as a reward could very well be the most clever way to get to those people who just blindly accept the T&C.

    However, I noticed one small thing about this quest that I think could be tweaked just a bit. I was so impressed by this quest when it first came out that I purposely picked the wrong answer to just to see what would happen. I then noticed that, once I started the quest over again the question was different. Playing around with it a little more, it was obvious to me that there were more than five question scenarios in the quest. But, you only need to answer five of them to complete it. Wouldn't it be better to have to answer every question, just so people are exposed to every scenario?

    I don't know, just a thought. Maybe it would save a couple of people from losing everything they put into this great game just to have it all taken away because of their ignorance. Maybe seeing every question would be more helpful to players than only seeing five...What if that player doesn't get the Whitelist question and goes on to multi-vote?

    On a side note, does it piss anyone else off to see a Hacker with the "Well Behaved Child" Medal on? How belligerent can you be?!

    I'm thinking that most new players would have to take a look at the terms and condition page while attempting the questions. If they are interested to know more about the rules, they would read the rest of the terms and conditions.

    New characters have to do this quest to leave maple Island. I spend quite a fair bit of time trying to do these questions when I was making inventory mules. Good luck to people who make fame mules ;)
