AFK siege usage

Post by MadMikael »

We've received many reports of players using siege weapons in an afk state.

We were unsure of this, so we had a long discussion, and did some testing.
It turns out, that when a player does this, they still gain experience, even if there is no ammo.
This means
This is a violation of rule 13, and you will be punished if caught!

If a GM inspects the warzone, and you do not answer, you will be subject to further testing, and jailing if you fail. Punishments are described in the rule as well.

Now, there are some things to keep in mind:
if a GM is on a clan map, we do our very best not to interfere; but it may happen accidentally; please, if we're in the way, just ask us nicely to move {However, if our work requires us to be in a certain position or area, the players should wait until the GM is finished working.} [DaHobbit]
if a GM is on a clan map, we have to be very careful; it is far too easy to accidentally move stuff as well
while on the clan map, we typically will not do alliances etc. due to the amount of attention needed while we are there
we get very many reports of players doing this; most turn out to be false; but we are still willing to check up on reports when we can

if you think someone is afk, sure, report them; it is best to do so privately, so not to tip them off
if a GM is in game, you may find them usually at the start map
facebook is another method to get our attention quickly as well
on the forum, it may be best for you to post in the minichat something like "I need a GM"... if one is online, they will answer; then you can chat there, or take it to private message

It is our intent to keep the game fair for everyone. It is not an easy job, but we try our best.
If we all work together, the odds of players getting away with things are lessened.
