What did you expect?

The intent is quite simply to open up Haven to raiding, and the wording (as well as accusation of regional involvement in the TSP coup, ironic considering the writer himself was heavily involved) is but fluff!

To fool the unwashed proletariat masses of the WA, presumably.

I'm really disappointed you didn't actually read the whole post, it speaks marvels for maturity.


What? Your "hashtags" at the bottom? Sorry not a Twitter fan....


Less gameside and NSG moderators polluting RP threads with their ridiculous rulings for one. And we get a louder voice when it comes to travesties such as this.

But in turn, it would make the RPers feel even more entitled than they actually are and further alienate General and Gameplay.

Lead to raiders being punished for raiding RP regions. The raiders are a harmful element to RPing and need to be thwarted before NS becomes little more than raiding and forum debating.

You can't just start "punishign raiders" for raiding RP regions. See, we have these nifty little things called "rules". Raiding is not against them ;)

Can you give any instances of so-called "entitlement"?

I'm not into RP or Gameplay much, so I'd like to know there's actual evidence this is happening, if even from an anecdotal experience.

Wrong. Raiders do not grief. Furthermore, griefing is a serious offence. I would suggest that the next time you see someone "griefing" you report it to the mods.

This entire thread has just been massive, for lack of a better term, "butthurt," by the RP community. Not even including the people who feel that RPers deserve to "opt-out" of a game that, by creating a region, they automatically join.

If they deliberately do it as to expel the previous occupants of that region I would consider them as the people who go around intentionally using mods to make themselves invincible and kill people on WoW for loot.

We don't do it to expel the occupants. We do it to capture the region itself.

I uh... I don't really have any conspiracy theories. I make a case that Haven was involved in the coup of TSP. Links are in the OP. Take it or leave it as you will.

Capturing the region often involves such activity though.

You could have been more eloquent and gone with "This entire thread has been a massive drama scene by the RP community and supporters" but I get your point.

Furthermore, I don't see that as "entitlement"; I see it more as a right for them to defend their choice not to participate in the Raiding and Defending aspects of it all, which is precisely what Generalites and other people in other aspects of gameplay have declined to do as far as I am aware.

To conclude, I am aware of the precedent this is creating, but I could care less if it passes or not as precedent, but at least the proposal should have been more fleshed out. As it stands I do not see this proposal's logic of even existing.

I stated somewhere along the way that upon further reading I was content with it because it states that regions like haven were "heavily involved", so it allowed for a more lenient interpretation of Haven's actions.
