What is the actions taken against people name shaming? Or calling people out that you were nice enough to trust? Isn’t taking and running just another form of trolling? Like enclosing a settlement you worked hard to create. You worked hard to acquire those things too

I’m sure we could come up with some effective ways to discourage it. How severe would a punishment need to be to convince somebody not to do it? Permanent ban? I dunno, I’d like to hear your suggestions.
As for other shameful actions, there is an appropriate place to report those things. I can tell you that naming and shaming will absolutely not result in better results than following the appropriate channels.
I get that but from what I’ve seen even the “appropriate” channels hardly work for a while and take multiple reports by the same person or posting it here on the forums. I feel honestly first report a warning, 2nd month ban, 3rd 60-90 day ban, 4th 180 day, 5th you’re gone. If can get perm banned for slurs or cheating once on most online games this is being “nice”
I would like to ask about a punishment. More curiosity then anything, the situation that happened a bit back with Quebec mall and the illuminaughty. People held parts of Quebec mall for ransom and terrorized a city. I know plots were removed, was there any ban on the players accounts? Also with what is happening outside and around Biitula PS hub wood stair cases to the max height, characters actually name includes…the word troll. Not trying to name someone or anything. Just honest question. Since we are speaking of punishments.

It can take time for the devs to get to your report, as they are often busy, furthermore if the devs deem that no action needs to be taken, then it might look like they have not gotten to your report at all.
The best thing to do is follow up personally with james in discord, on by DMing him on the forums or emailing the support email. and ask them what is going on with it. And when they have the time, they will get back to you about it.
5 chances sounds awful generous, and I dare say it would encourage people to ignore the rules. That being said, in the past people who don’t know the rule are more than understanding enough to not do it again. What do you do when the person is clearly not ignorant of the rule, and chooses to ignore it anyway? I feel like such a situation would merit much sterner reactions.
I really don’t agree with 5 chances, it has been kind of proven by Riot games, that if someone doesn’t reform after the 3rd punishment, they are not going to reform
And I strongly agree with Riot’s system for it
However for boundless, Chat restriction would need to be replaced by something else, Warnings for an example
But at the end of the day, it is up to the devs to decide how to handle all of it.

I was being generous more so for the “new” players who don’t understand the rules at first. If do the same trolling (blocking/enclosing) first a warning, 2nd sense know what you did 4-6 month ban. 3rd year ban. I’m not mean I’ve messed up in my life but “kid” playing the game may not truly understand them. May be first mmo game. If devs can truly see all actions than should be able to see if being a troll or a kid just playing the game.
I don’t feel the rules are that complex to be honest.
Be respectful to other people, and Most people will be ok.
And for the player who made a honest mistake and didn’t know, that is what warnings are for and why most GMs don’t go right to banning unless it is extreme.
Anyone able to shed light on what happened to those players? The trolls from the quebec mall and illuminaughty situation? Did they get punished or just had there plots removed from mall and city. Because what they did to ginabean was cruel.
That all seems right in line with the CoC as it stands. So, responding to harassment with harassment doesn’t make it right, it just results in additional disciplinary actions. I think that’s as fair as it gets.
I feel you should ask the victim himself or herself about that, Even if I knew, Which I don’t. I would not feel like I am at liberty to say. It would be up to the victim to decide if she and/or he wants to tell you the full details what happened. and that is if the devs even told him and/or her the full end result of the situation. As the devs might want not want to state any other punishments that were given to any select player.
Okay okay I’m bringing out the serious question now… Please hear me out…how do you a make spitter eye smoothie?
In a mixer. Be sure to sanitize it after, though.
