i'm been "muted" for 9 days now .. u get to the point that the game is actually not playable , u have to make everything your self .. its not different from a offline game. too bad that i can't cheat mine way true it ^_^
A little bashing the mods could help .. cos whats better, to sort it out on a server level, or wait to all the wrongly banned/muted players start spamming the BBs at home and some heads might roll later .
But what do i know what the BBs in Dusseldorf are thinking ^_^
10 pages or so, the thread started off questioning the mods behaviour or such like. In the last 5 pages pages, or so the thread has descended into a series of rants.
Right guys, how do the grwon ups cope with it? Well simple really - Realise that the mods are humans and individuals, just like us. Just like us they see rules and guidelines and just like usdo act differently to them - in their case interpreting them and then either imposing or not imposing sanctions. The trick is to get consistency - as you should ALL agree this is very difficult - remember being at school and how some teachers were consistent and others weren't! - NOT how strict they were! - So how did we cope with it, well some adapted for the inconsitenticies and had a reasonable time. Others didn't make the effort and made life unpleasent for the teacher and the rest of the class (read MOD and chat population for that).
They moaned because they got into trouble all the time, saying it wasn't fair, and why me?
Well if you're grownup, you take note of these things and work with them, not against them. You notice which mods are online and you remember how they react and you make sure that act sensibly.
If you're not mature, but someone with a chip on their shoulder and don't see the need to conform in this environment, then rather than question how the MODs try to make a fun atmosphere, then perhaps the game is not for you and you should move on.
The actions of the powers to be have caused me to loose around 1/2 the people on my friends list. I followed the set down procedure about making a complaint and got a reply. As far as I am concerned, that episode is now finished and in the past - life goes on. - Stop being so bitter and twisted about things - a mature person makes sure that he/she doesn't do what was perceived to be wrong again - a child or petulant teenager keeps riling - grow up.
As I said earlier, the MODs mainly get it right - try to help them get it right more often.

This website is a GAME. We should have FUN. But me and lots of others are feeling UNHAPPY because those who host the site are NOT creating an HAPPY ATMOSPHERE.
Why do bans last 666 minutes? This makes me really not want to play the Settlers anymore if it's run by satanists.
Thank you for your feedback guys (even if for some it was more a question of venting their frustration than giving feedback)!
I've read it all and I'm going to address some of the major issues you've mentioned here in the next few days. Some of these you probably won't see publicly, but for others, you'll get a clear indication on the forum (FYI, look out for some major changes in the channels).
Toruko: your way of handling things is appalling and the more threats and comments players make like this, the less credit I give them. Please make a special effort to stay civil, polite and constructive when asking for a major change/rectification.
