Ok one more psot before I have to run off to work:
Castiel- I understand you were offended but that doesn\'t mean everyone would look that bad. There will always be people who won\'t like certain guilds for stupid reasons and getting more restrictive would only \"prove\" it if the guy says RPC are jerks. As far as public, most general players will hate and think RPers are stupid no matter what, and unless they\'re disruptive or harassing I ignore them. If they don\'t get a rise out of the RPC they will stop eventually.
As for definitions, fine have the RPC in their harrassment post define harassment for the group as a whole, those are the broad things I\'m talking about. We define our behavior policies and in the events the hosts implement it. The hosts determine if the battles are decided via randoms or whatever if its a fight tournament though. You cannot force everyone to use one battle system so its better to avoid it IMO since you would only generate OOC drama. If its left to guilds, indviduals on and encounter and event basis its fine.
If you don\'t believe me that is all Starsider used successfully please examine their forums. PM Tziana or something. Try and learn what they did successfully before deciding to make too many rules.
Kes- The point of having a journal thread is to share all your interactions throughout the community. What you are talking about is only an issue if a community atmosphere isn\'t fostered. On Starsider we all recognized every action with everyone as having happened and it was know throughout the whole community. Again please read the forum there. What made it so fantastic there is it felt like a small real-world community not a collection of unrelated characters.
