Alright, I have been trying to reach an immortal in the game for quite some time, but somehow the timeline just doesn't coincide and I really hope some admin can shed some light on this. Wicigogord is a character I played. Now I am aware that he got outcasted, for whatever reason, I can only guess it's due to my aggression towards the keepers cabal for invading them and capturing their item. However, I believe I have sufficient reason for that since Wityl, their gnome thief stole 3 or 4 of my rare weapons once and I believe I do have the right to exact my revenge upon them since I was provoked first, even if I am a neutral.
If that is insufficient reason to be hostile against the keepers, and my case is overthrown, then I would have nothing to say, since I am just a player governed by the admins' decision in the game. So, I have somewhat accepted this judgement and decided to make do with it despite having to face all the disadvantages of being an outcast, since I have really spent almost 300 hours on this character, mastering almost every skill there is to master for a warrior.
However, what shocked me most was, when I logged on today, I realised that my maximum strength attribute has been reduced by 1 to 21! Come on, I mean, do you really hate me that much to do all these to me? Imagine having spent almost an average of 50 days worth of sleeping time (assuming that one sleeps 6 hours a day) on a character. I don't believe I have broken any rules with this character, if then why are you being so difficult on him.
Seriously, it was simply "Log in;*outcasted*;end". No note or reason given at all, and I dun even have a chance to plead my case, and now the reduction in strength attribute without any notice again... Is this character really that detestable?
Imagine someone invites a group of 'friends' to his house for a Super Bowl party, provides the food, provides the beer/drinks, etc. Say some of those friends bring their friends too, who don't really know the host but the host is gracious enough to entertain everyone on his dime.
Throughout the day the host is having to occasionally tell his friends "please get your dirty shoes off my coffee table", "please put your empty beer bottles in the trash/recycling bin", etc. He's trying to be friendly about it, but the majority of the people he's known for a while, and they've been to parties at his house before, so they should know better by now and the "pleasantries" (asking nicely, etc.) get old after awhile... especially annoying because, as I just mentioned, it's assumed that THEY SHOULD KNOW BETTER BY NOW.
Finally the host, slightly irritated but still trying to maintain his composure and keep the majority of the partygoers happy, decides to bring out a snack tray, which happens to be loaded with some slightly different munchies than everyone at the party is used to. There are a couple of sneers and upturned noses at first (which is normal when people experience new things), but once a couple of people try the new snacks they realize that they're actually pretty decent and give the host kudos.
Along comes a partygoer, a longtime acquaintance of the host and someone who's been to his share of the host's parties, who asks the host a seemingly innocuous question. The host replies with a somewhat "well you should already know the answer to that" response, but the partygoer in turn responds by calling the host a "dumbass" and adds a mild insult to the other partygoers (but many of them are fairly thick-skinned when it comes to each other's comments, being somewhat longtime friends/mutual partygoers).
The host, having already endured putting up with the messes he's having to clean up from accidents and sometimes-careless partygoers (spilled drinks, empty bottles, etc.), gets a bit miffed at being called a "dumbass" in his own home during his own party. He in turn kicks the partygoer in question out of his home and party.
Regardless of what else you're going to rebut with or add onto this specific event, Tipplwise, what in that scenario is "powertrippy" as opposed to someone not wanting to have dirty dishwater splashed in their face for cleaning other peoples' dishes?

I can understand one big explosion every once in a while, because you all are human after all. However, to use the cliche from spiderman: "with great power comes great responsibility." I feel that it is the responsibility of an imp to have a respectful tone when talking to his players. I mean, it may just be me, but I don't think snide comments coming from the imp is going to be great for the retention rate.
Your smack-down on my powertrip comment was a very fitting one and one that I would expect to come from an immortal. It did not include any ad hominem attacks (which Clifton will tell you have no logical value) and it clearly laid out the point you were trying to make.
Regarding the dumbass comment and your analogy: I would first like to reference the Golden Rule "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." If the host of this party during the course of the party repeatedly calls his guests retards, insults their intelligence, and acts in a condescending manner towards them, why should he not expect something in return?
ROFL.
Sounds to me like all the crap is still going on. And it looks like everyone is trying to pretend they're still having fun.
Getting outcasted for no reason and without any note doesn't even seem harsh to me wici. LOL.
Wait.. Dav's allowed to call people retards? HAHAH.
Awesome. I'm glad I stopped by again today. I find all this kinda funny. Maybe I'll poke in again every once in while.
Keep enjoying yourselves guys.
BTW you were banned because you were, at least acting like, a total fucking moron. How much clearer could he be? If you want to post bugs post here, if you want to post ANYTHING ELSE click
I almost posted a reply there telling you to shut the hell up, but I can at least follow simple instructions.
and basball outcasting has been WAY too lenient. someone needs to put a stop to this gay "I'm going to roll a halfling thief, rob people and then kill them repeatedly for attacking me! invade cabals, etc. but I'm neutral" shit.
I never got a clear answer to my question. And I mean, if it were SO clear, then why would I have a question about it? It's a simple question really: what are the stipulations to confining. Dav's post didn't say you can confine whenever the hell you want inside the inner section without any stipulations, so I was trying to CLARIFY.
According to the old confine, you had to confine while the first guardian was still alive. Obviously, that can't be the case with this two guardian system. Davairus also said that you could not go past the second guardian while you had adrenaline. Thus, in order to be in a confineable position, you have to have killed both guards. If that is the case, I'm not even sure it is (which is why I'm asking questions) does that mean you can confine whenever the hell you want once they enter the inner section of cabal grounds?
If you are neutral, get butchered by a legion, for example, are you able to kill that person back? I understand neutrals shouldn't be aggressive, just trying to figure out the nuances now.
*cough*
The reason, really simply, is it annoys that hell out of me for him to come to my website and act like a douche. Very few things will give someone the right to come here and take a shit on something I enjoy doing in my free time. You don't get to come to invokation and judge me for doing something they enjoy.
The question about confine was posted in the wrong place. He pointed out that you posted in the wrong place. You claimed he was starting shit and called him a dumbass. So he banned you. I see absolutely nothing wrong with that. Maybe you think he should've been more lenient; What I want to know is why?
When it comes to respect, it really is a one-way street. Do you really care if someone doesn't respect you when you think they're completely worthless people? Of course not. So instead of wasting your time saying you lost respect for Davairus, ask yourself whether you think he'd really give two shits.
