My stance isn't as negative as it once was regarding you, but my main criticism remains the same; you staff like a robot, which is a two sided coin that paints a bad picture for a good reason. Your punishments are (as far as I know) reasonable and there haven't been any that have been appealled for being wrong, but sometimes you don't have to react in such a harsh manner against people who are playing the server to chill out. A good example is the warn appeal a guy made who "rdmd" ella , who was actually bantering with his friend. According to you, you wouldn't have warned the dude but rather you'd talk to them because of staff ethos, when in my opinion staff ethos is the last thing to come to mind regarding that situation; 1v1s are allowed in the game , and it's called semi - serious RP, where non-rp actions that don't affect 3rd party people usually are generally accepted. My point is this; you take some shit too seriously that don't affect others , and you end up a tryhard who's ruining their fun.
