Again, this is just specific to Draz and his play style on my end. Anyone who regularly plays this game knows he does weird dung. I’m not going to ask him every time he stands still if he’s actually there or if he’s trying to do something dumb.

Otherwise I’d spend every pk session with him just letting him disengage bash me while trying to ask if he’s there while there are three channelers, two more warders, and two other bashers 3-5 rooms away while I’m beaten/battered.

Anyway, he got all of his gear back minus maybe a medallion and jcuffs + potions because I gave those to Venum.

With this small of a player base, I just really don't understand killing the other side when they are doing literally nothing.
And I repeat, he was not not doing nothing. He literally just walked by us and there's almost zero reason for him to flee with the group so close. Role reversed, wounded in an easy dline room vs two attackers, I would have stood there until a bash landed to trigger auto flee or my group walked in too.

Also, miss me with the SmAlL pLaYeRbAsE crap. I don't really care -- not my pig, not my farm.

It was a kind gesture to return his things, and it was kind of you to give him the benefit of the doubt.

However, I do not appreciate the vitriolic tone that has started coming through in some of the posts.

You do not have to agree with one another, and you do not have to get along. But on any official WoTMUD platform, we do need to maintain a basic level of respect toward each other.

Scrat's point about the size of our playerbase does have merit, and that extends to spaces like this. We cannot bring players back, continue growing, and build a stronger community while constantly tearing each other down. That applies both in game and outside of it.

I am not claiming to be perfect. I have lost my temper before. Everyone has moments where they could have handled things better. But we have to at least make an effort to improve, both individually and collectively.

And Crusunte, you do care about this game. I do not know why you pretend otherwise. You are passionate about this place, and that is clear.

That said, there are people who genuinely seem to hold disdain for this community. To those people, I would simply say this: you are welcome to find another game and another space that better suits what you are looking for. We do not need people here who only wish to tear down what others are trying to build.

Locking the post now. I think we have gotten what we need from the discussion.
