The bottom line is, as someone has already stated, the start up message in your client was changed several days in advance. It first said "no rules will be enforced" but was changed several days (three I believe) before the GM's return. It clearly stated the rules must be followed. This was plenty of "advance notice".

Claiming ignorance is not a credible excuse IMO.

Does anyone read the opening page? It clearly stated that the GMs were back...not everything a GM does is abuse...Kat was not abusing anyone. She was doing her job.

As MK stated...claiming ignorance is not a credible excuse...

Wishing things were different...hoping for better now.

Why GMs got their power back? Experiment proved that people were doing fine without them.

Platyne :)

ok

i do ...

Platyna ! don't spam or you'll be banned :D joke double click always happen
(no offense please i just could not friendly resist :) )

back to the post subject

well i imagine we will soon have a post that explain

why GM are back
What results are the results of the experiment
What are the evolution in GM role and rules
etc
etc

i can just imagine it takes some times so i'll wait and see

anyway this will not change my opinion that

GM are needed in a game such as this one in this phase of its development work at least. Hen the tmwserv and final game will be released it might be different maybe.
GM are really doing a great work always warn, explain in proper ways (if they would act as the ones that break the rules :) that would be fun! (why not a test in which they would do so...?)

so go GM go

Glad to see that Delasias as added fonctions too in the event side.

so let's go on playing, having fun and participate with play and feedback in this game development

I told Bjørn to change that in the news since it causes misunderstandings. However he had no time to do so. Fact is, that Delasia is now an Event Organizer only.
