As I mentioned in another thread, but maybe a bit hidden.

Thanks for giving us warning now when a behavior strikes you as blatantly non-conforming with rules you like to be observed. (speaking of Talas / Asenath occurance in south metz)

Giving warning for a one singular such occurance, like Daimoth describes, where in a one-time-occurance a one-time alt was present, well, IMO was not really REALLY needed, but oh well. You warn when you seem fit. Our job is it to listen.

I for one am glad when people clearly overdoing it, get warnings. I do very much hope, that consequences, which will then hurt the entire community will NOT be necessary. Also I hope, we can forgo really tough personal punishements like SC and Pe'Ell endured. You can argue, if they do NOT take THREE clear warnings, they are beyond hope.

But I can tell you from my own experience. Once a GM communicated his problems with what Muj and I were doing in plain words in a PM. Mujin and I stopped immediately, cuz seeing his PoV, which of course was totally different than ours, explained so much. That GM is not active anymore, but I keep that lesson in fond memory. It is many years since, but said GM and the occurance have a special place in my heart still. So I would please ask, even if you have said it a couple years ago in plain speak, and it is stickied on the very forum for everyone to read, please speak with the persons you find obnoxious. Does not need to be a long discussion (as they are argumentative it seems to me, entitled feeling rangers ;) )

Sometimes we really only get a general feeling of wrongdoing from warnings, but what exactly ticked you off? If it was me in the situation of Talas & Asenath I indeed would love to have a couple things cleared up. Actually even as an onlooker. Asenath porting, anything wrong with that? She got the mark by a legit hunt through RF, marks are means to port 5 people somewhere. If the ledge would get port, and pend free, as other areas are, that would punish quite a lot of other groups, who play by the rules.

If something is unclear, please come back to me, reader or GM. I know my english is really far far from as precise as I like to speak in my language.
