Running a column like this is hard work for a number of reasons....
- People do not like that you have taken the piss, finding a balance betweeen humour and griefing is tricky
-People feel that the the things you said were not accurate.
- Sometimes you follow a logical path which gives you an incorect solution !!!
The top 2 I am not too bothered about as I do things in good taste and always in humour !!! the final point however is a biggie.. with more and more people reading my blog it is important that everything I write is accurate.
I wrote a post abut a player in our pledge EvilMagii that we kicked out of our pledge for being a bot... we followed did some research then some more and the result was that we thought we had a bot in our pledge.
The reality is that some players have special circumstances, they could be foreign language speakers who can barley scrape together Hi or a smile. They could be disasbled and have mental slowness, they could just be so damn wasted that he is in his own little world....
We all have differnt reasons for playing Lineage, for some it something that makes them smile and takes them away from things in real life.... I have to imagaine if I logged in only to get a message that my account had been de-activated for failure to meet terms of play... how would I feel !!!
Evilmagii is not a bot...... and I got it wrong ... very wrong !!!
Several people in pledge know him in real life and he just has some personal circumstances for not answering.... that does not mean the wis I got wrong because it was a good call ^^. It does not mean that we did not have evidence to support him being a bot... the fact is that despite all of this I still made the wrong choice !!!
Spare a thought for the monitors as this is a situation they face every day !!!!
