Hello there, You have been banned for 3 days, due to your (1st) offense KSing / Objectionable behavior. In the future, please respect the ~mapowner of a map, and do not proceed to bring friends to help KS the mapowner. "It's channel 1" is not a valid excuse. This has resulted in all parties involved in KSing being banned. Spoiler: T&C - Non appendix Minor Infractions: Punishment: First offense - 3 day ban, Second offense - 7 day ban, Third offense - 30 day ban, Subsequent offenses - 90 day ban Objectionable Behavior - The act of insulting, threatening, or harassing other players or Staff, or engaging in speech that is vulgar, defamatory, obscene, hateful, discriminatory or derogatory on the basis of personal identity - including, but not limited to, race, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, religion, and national origin - irrespective of the language used. Additionally, the act of "spamming" or "flooding" with chat or skills, or any other action that is excessively disruptive to the individuals around you, as well as transmitting any sort of content that is inappropriate, sexually explicit, or privately owned. Kill-stealing - The act of attacking bosses or monsters on a map persistently without the system designation of ownership via the ~mapowner in-game command, or alternatively last-hitting any bosses or monsters on a map without that same designation, without the expressed permission of the player who does have that designation. Map Looting - The act of looting one or more items dropped from a boss monster, regular monster, or other map element without the system designation of ownership via the ~mapowner in-game command, or alternatively without the expressed permission of the player who does have that designation. Spoiler: T&C - Appendix As a general statement for terms under the Minor Infractions title, please be aware that Staff retains the right to decide on a case-by-case basis what infracts the rule and what does not. A similar case in the past does not necessarily qualify a current case to be treated in a similar manner, as every case is different and the nature of inappropriate actions is constantly changing. To be safe from potential bans under minor infractions, the most general suggestion we have is to act as though you are in a real life public situation with your superiors around you. If you are respectful to the individuals around you, it will severely reduce any likelihood of facing minor infraction consequences. 1. Objectionable Behavior - There are multiple scenarios in which harassment can be defined. Persistence and level of aggression are two major factors - constant harassment over a long period of time will likely qualify a player as having broken this rule, or alternatively a strongly objectionable statement or group of statements over a short period of time. Persistent mass defamation will be considered three or more defames by an individual and may also include asking, paying, or otherwise incentivizing other players to defame another individual. Be aware that the use of certain words, and any variation on them, will result in a ban, if they were uttered in a public space (defined as: all chat, megaphones, omok games, hired merchants, stores, chalkboards, etc.), regardless of whether or not they were used in a targeted manner. In private spaces (defined as: party chat, buddy chat, guild chat, alliance chat, spouse chat, whisper) these terms will be considered a bannable offence only if used in a targetted manner and the target files a report. Do keep in mind that the in-game chat filter is active by default, and will filter a vast number of vulgarities. Reports filed for the use of words covered by the filter will not be considered valid. Only cases where the filter was intentionally circumvented will be considered. Use of monster sacks will be considered harassment if the individual is either targeting the same player multiple times or targeting multiple players to disrupt their gameplay. 2. Kill-stealing - The ~mapowner command has been put into place for the reason of understanding which player in a kill-stealing altercation is in the right and which is in the wrong. The ~mapowner command functions in-game to determine which character possesses ownership of the map and all contained monsters. Upon attaining ownership of a map, the owner is granted three minutes of immunity, after which the first character on the map to attack will have ownership transferred to them. If the owner attacks prior to the three minutes expiring, the three minute immunity is refreshed to the time of the attack - therefore, the owner of the map must not attack on the map for a period of three minutes before the ownership becomes claimable. This allows the owner to leave their computer for smaller purposes without allowing ownership retention over long periods of inactivity. A player who is not the map owner may still attack on the map, however, if the owner of the map decides to ask the player to leave, they must comply at the risk of consequence by this rule, regardless of any past agreements. 3. Map Looting - Please refer to the above appendix section on Kill-stealing for a detailed explanation of how the ~mapowner designation functions. This rule does not apply to group bossing and party questing expeditions, where players are expected to communicate with one another on the allocation of drops. Additionally, this rule does not encompass items dropped by a player. You are responsible for items you have dropped from your own character, whether the incident was accidental or not; map ownership does not apply to instances in which a player has lost an item to another player via looting in which that first player dropped the item. Finally, a player is allowed to loot drops on a map with the permission of the designated map owner; however, in the case that that permission is revoked by the map owner, they must comply at the risk of consequences under this rule, regardless of any past agreements.
Hi GM Pure, I did not KS the player, I was there for bubbling quest. I am not friends/buddy of both players. just party the guy for quest and not sure they are quarrying , so once that player ask to cc, i did quit the game. please check with the report player to confirm.
I have watched video evidence of you KSing this person, with friends, for over 15 minutes, with map ownership showed multiple times, prior to ever issuing a ban to you. This has been confirmed prior. Your appeal is denied.
Hi GM Pure, The guy is not my friends/Buddy, can you check the buddy list. why would I ks the the person I dont even know. i am purely there for quest and i cc after i saw the freeHS mention cc. maybe you can post the video here
It does not matter who the person is, friend or not. If they hold ownership of the map, and ask you to leave, you need to leave. No if's, and's, or but's. You were in the map KSing the mapowner. Even if you are not friends, I confirmed everyone involved in the video itself.
@LemonBean933 I went back to double-verify, and upon looking again, it does appear that you left upon the mapowner telling you to. I apologize about that, and will look into an unban on you right away. Awkward...
You have been unbanned! Once again I apologize about that! Thank you for your understanding / cooperation on this matter.
thanks, understand that is hard to investigate the matter, i will do my best to explain the issue as details as possible. thanks alot for the time.
Hi GM Pure, Can you help to unban my Priest as well, I mention wrong IGN in the post. the correct IGN should be: CoffeexBean
