Twinny that rule has been in place for ages, and the only people who seem to break it are new members to the forums, who _DONT_ read the rules.

I've never read the rules but at the same time ive never gotten warned or banned or anything like that.

Sometimes its just general manners.

I haven't read any posts other than the one created by the thread starter. Anyway, Enforce the rules - this feature is pathetic.

They still do enforce the rules, who do you think decides that we lost a point?

If they enforced the rules upon us they obviously wouldn't of implemented this new system - I hope.

Really do we spend more time figuring out ways to punish us then developing the game?

Listen up. I break rules on games because it doesn't have a serious impact on what I do in real life. If I wanted a place to be paranoid about getting in trouble I'd go outside. When I feel like getting something off my back I do it here. Don't take that away too you selfish ****ers. End of story.

This is getting more than a little ridiculous. As if the forums didn't have stringent enough policies already? I've never heard of a non-free forum having so many damned bannings. I swear to god, I'm starting to think you guys want to be broke.

What an absolutely horrible idea. The people complain about the moderation being too strict, so you make the rules even more strict? I guess the customer isn't always right, eh Unix?

The problem with these rules is that they are up to interpretation of mods who a majority of users don't think properly understand them. This mis-interpretation and misunderstanding that is no doubt going to happen will make for even bigger problems.

Are you insane? 3 spam posts and you're banned for a week?

Unix, I understand that you have a game to run and a profit to make, but you do realize that alienating a large amount of your forum userbase is only going to do the opposite, right?

Remember when we had vital stats on the left? It was some PHP Hack, I forget what the deal was really...but hey, if they can hack it for that, they can hack it for this right? I'd be cool with that.

The problem isn't the rules, it's that you can't seem to follow them. You whine and cry after someone has a problem with the way you're acting.
They wouldn't need something to strict if things never got out of hand.

Yes, this is only a forum, but it's also GraalOnline's official forum. The people that think graal would easily fail without them should really learn to look further then their own nose. The way you act now is what keeps a nicer population from Graal. The way you treat fellow players both in game and on the forum shows these new comers that this game isn't friendly at all.
They visit the forums for the first time and see a little kid swearing his head off and bashing another player. Yes these things can be deleted, but what if they weren't deleted in time. A new, mature, and friendly player could have seen that and decided the game wasn't for them. It's the way you act that is keeping GraalOnline down. This new system is so that the crap that should be deleted, never happens at all. This isn't limited to just players either, i've seen just as much from a few nameless globals as well.
