Question 1: Why should I ask myself what I already know.
Question 2: WRONG! The answer is YES! I do not like to, I have had it forced on LK and other alts.
Question 3: WRONG! The answer is YES! And I have PVPed in clans, well mostly PvDied and a few times lost gear, still do not like it, but no choice in a clan. In my time playing FT I have been involved in 6 to 8 clans, with alts of course. Even LK has a build level of 1, he was in a clan for about an hour with a friend just to show me the map.
Right now If I reinstalled the game and reactivated my accounts I think I have alts in 6 clans - one of which my alt is the Duke. Another clan I created gave the "Duke" to a friend.
Common sense already tells you what I meant.
I don't like PvP either, though I have been part of quite a lot of it. I have spent thousands of hours doing things related to clans. You cannot reasonably claim, that after a bit of experience in it, you know exactly how everything works, how is like, what needs changing, ....
I didn't say you know nothing about it, I'm just saying you don't have the kind of experience in clans/PvP as I do, just like I don't have as much experience as you in things you do.

It's even more accurate now.

Barkley,
creator of a map that was wiped off the face of FT because you cheated in it's creation
Are you going to answer my last posts question?
I really like that quote, thank you for quoting it again
Here it is again.

RevenShas wrote:It's funny, all I see is rule breakers complaining about the GM team
This statement is technically correct, but what it implies is not.
Whilst most do not complain about the team in public if they haven't had any issues with it personally, a large number of players do
privately complain about various things, like inactivity and bias.
I'm certainly not going to name the people I know, and the VAST majority certainly haven't talked to me about it.
Only "rule breakers complain about the GM team", but that's because they have been labelled as such, not because they are objectively that.
People aren't mad because they are rule breakers, they are mad because they are in their mind falsely labelled as such.
RevenShas wrote:I have no friends in game, I have no enemies, I never clanned and never attack people with ill intentions
1. Everyone has friends and enemies. Of all GM's, tough, Reven is the one with the most biased decisions.
I have multiple friends who have gotten out of things they shouldn't have, simply by being friends with Reven.
2. I also have multiple friends who were punished for rather ludicrous reasons, just because Reven didn't like them.
I'm not going to go look for all the screenshots and ask for more, but I have seen many pretty rude messages in various different places. If you want, I can ask people if I can send those here.
I'll give you one example of him contradicting this claim here, and one later.
Reven wasn't in clan at this time, I'm not sure about celestial, but he probably was.
Celestial came and attacked an enemy of his. That enemy was in a clan. Celestial had a fight with him, and during that fight Reven started healing that player. Celestial was upset and attacked Revens (non GM) account and killed it.
Reven logged into his GM account and jailed celestial for violating this section of rule 9b:
excessive hunting of the player
I believe Reven claims, that he was healing either himself from some monster, or some other person and wasn't engaging in PvP. From celestials perspective, whether intentionally or not, Reven
was engaging in PvP by healing that player.
And even if Reven hasn't engaged in PvP first, he wasn't "excessively hunted" by celestial, he was in a fight ONCE. Reven also jailed another one of celestials accounts minutes later, and then IP banned him.
Celestial was only released after the direct intervention of comp.
Main sources: celesital, Reven
3. I saw Reven on his main account in the same clan as me earlier this year. In fact, it was a clan in which I was the only lord ([Hive]). Judging by the fact that I have been inactive for months, and I don't snoop around seraching for Reven, its probably fair to assume that that wasn't the only clan.
RevenShas wrote:That being said, I have personally overseen or newest JrGM and I am the one that has decided all punishments given by him, so all the claims about him picking sides is completely wrong, as he would not take an action without my say so.
Again, technically correct, Galba couldn't have done anything wrong, because Reven made all the decisions.
But people didn't know that when they were upset at Galbas injustice, it was actually Reven making the decisions.
Honestly, thanks to Reven for clearing up the confusion, as everyone was privately shocked about how Galba transformed into being unfair overnight.
I cannot wait for the good Galba to be able to make his decisions without others deciding on his behalf.

All them alts used to kill friends pets
All the horrendous language that would deeply upset your mother's
All the people caught auto clicking or just afk
I'm quite sure no player would like there dirty laundry put out in public
If thats not an implicit threat, what is?
...a suggestion that something unpleasant or violent will happen...
RevenShas wrote:All them alts used to kill friends pets
This familiar wording clearly refers to my brother. In order to save time, I'll only mention what is relevant.
So Reven has repeatedly implicitly threatened to "reveal" the name of the relevant account, though hilariously, we "revealed" the name long ago.
Reven doesn't like shade, so when he sees this "pet killer" he instantly jails it and says "funs over shade". My brother is not shade and he repeatedly told Reven. The team eventually jailed my brother's other accounts, because Reven claimed that he was impersonating shade (shade would've been fine with it if he was asked).
RevenShas wrote:All the people caught auto clicking or just afk
Here's something you didn't know: Who's the first person caught by comps system of scanning your device and checking if you're using auto clickers on ft?
The answer? I opened Messenger one day, and found out it was... me!?
Obviously, everyone knew it was wrong, and later when I was incorrectly permanently jailed Rasta mentioned the auto clicker, though not even he had to audacity to claim that it was correct, he said it was false!
Maybe there are so many issues with the tools, that all the people complaining are actually victims of the defectiveness of the tools used by the GMs.
Who knows who could be on such a list if it was published? Maybe even you could be on it, if I am
Thank you, for being one of the few people who knows how to write a well-written, serious and yet interesting/funny post.
Perhaps I was not clear enough, as you seem to have answered everything, except for what I wanted you to. What I wanted you to answer was this:

Out of genuine curiosity, what do you think about my actual talking point which I repeatedly try to make?
That being: That the rules should be clear, detailed and enforced as they are written so everyone knows exactly how everything has to go, and not as subjective as they are now.
People who don't speak English seem to get jailed more often (on average). Wouldn't you say that's probably because there are issues to do with translations or similar?
I cannot understand how making things clearer, especially for people who aren't fluent in English, can be a bad thing.
I had to write this entire post twice for you because my connection deleted it
