Perspective, where are you?

Has anyone else noticed an increase in snitching, finger-pointing and the likes? Or is my decrease in playing handing me a new perspective?
Isn't this a game and not an online society where police forces and FBI should get instated to ensure for games that are more fair. When you play versus humans instead of computers you will come across ways of playing that aren't fair. Annoying? Yes. But while some things are helpful in tackling this, the endless allegations of pre-game truces and whatever are in my opinion useless... Dislike someone? Why, place them on the list and hey presto, you got yourself a completely useless list of pre-game trucers and proxy whatevers. I think even the gang- whatever it was called- was providing people with some fun, probably a highly disputable statement. But what is next, stalk people and torture until they admit to having 10 accounts, where they were, when they were using them and why? Though I guess fun is 1 of those many things that is in the eye of the beholder, I believe this game is only as fun as the people you play with and even more so if you are able to play them as if you don't know them. Not always as easy and sometimes I just would like to have a mute-all-chat button or a no-longer-know-all-players button. Anyway, perspective is a rather usefull thing to have in life, why do so many seem to lose it while playing this game. Have fun :), Sarah. |

Mikey, I would somewhat agree that self-policing is part of any community. But, without a set of rules to follow there are as many rules as there are crimes if you want. So in here, unless moderators are appointed who would have to remain fully neutral there will never be such a thing as self-policing that will get us anywhere closer to some form of order. Thought the self in self-policing would be... others, hmmm. Anyway, swiftly moving on.... Since self-policying really starts with each individual deciding what is right or wrong for themselves, it won't happen in a coherent democratically backed up way :). So maybe you would have to click a button 1000 times to report someone, would keep the people busy that are abusing the option and we get to play in peace. Seriously, it would help if we found a way, a well-thought through plan. No fixed rules, only fixed punishments :). See, finding consistency in this will be complicated :). Anyway, let's play a game :). |
