A notice to the admin team and the players

[Prysin]

After viewing the sanction reports for a long time, iv'e noticed the admin team handing out sanctions with questionable rule use. Im not saying your wrong, I'm saying your using the WRONG rule to describe the situation.

Let me make an example; http://discoverygc.com/forums/index.php?...pic=128072
This sanction, it's perfectly legit, however i saw that thread where they were "trolling" and this is what i want to explain to you.

Flaming is not trolling.

IN that thread, there was more flaming then trolling, obvious trolling is not trolling, its just flaming.

In regards to other sanctions; admins/players love reporting for 1.2.... which is a diffuse rule that can EASILY be interpreted as "admin power abuse" by players NOT so well versed in discovery.
The fact that §1.2 clearly state "we will sanction you cuz we can" is a very good reason NOT to use it. I've seen other game servers with such rules and it really pisses off less experience players.

Instead i encourage the admin team, but also the player base to REREAD THE RULES. Not to make sure you know them, but to make sure you report for the correct rule breach and not just go for the broad spectrum ones, such as 1.2 and "you troll you lose".

This is but a notice, not a discussion. Take it to heart and know WHAT you report for, as reporting is a serious thing.

Dunno what gives you the right to tell me that this is a notice and not a discussion. I'll discuss it here if I damn well want to.

I prefer reporting violations of 0.0. If I don't see excellence on your part I'll make sure you are going down, that great I am.

Sure you can, but I wasn't referring to that.)

Muahaha aren't you just a perfect little nitwit.

If your (yes in this sentence you're actually supposed to use your) injustice alarm goes off over such a thing as this I suggest getting into the human rights movements. In other words do something useful...
