We need new rules, better rules

[Menace13]

We need rules that weren’t made by a 12 year old with a power fetish. Detailed rules that put the burden on the administration, not the idiotic players. Or, yknow, just don’t have rules besides the obvious “don’t fuck up the game” rule.

We need new rules, better rules

Please elaborate. Are you talking about only the website rules, only the game server rules, or both? What particular aspects of the rules do you feel need improvement and why?

(As a side note, I didn’t want to rate this topic at this time, but the new ratings plugin we are testing wouldn’t allow me to post without rating).

How do you want to have this:
“Maintain a safe, friendly, productive and fun environment.”
and this?
“ursing, foul language, swearing, profanities, trash talking, distasteful/controversial/taboo/offensive chat, disrespecting both players and/or admins, as well as any other undesirable chat that doesn’t violate any of the rules are ALLOWED (but not condoned, encouraged, nor recommended), and are NOT valid reasons to mute, kick, nor ban (neither by admin nor callvote)”

New rules: any insult, trashtalking = 1 hour ban.

This article elaborates on GrangerHub’s position on chat and free speech in-game:

I believe that would lead to an environment that would be highly tense, restrictive, and unwelcoming. There would also be more possibility of abusing enforcement of such a rule. A server that would have and strictly enforce such a rule would likely not be very active, at least not with the size of Tremulous’ current playerbase.

Additionally insults and trash talking are common friendly interaction between friends.

I don’t know why did I even try…
