Default Regarding the Online Manners Update 10/2/08

Oct. 2, 2008 22:00 [PDT] From: PlayOnline
Regarding the Online Manners Update

We would like to inform you that the contents of the "Account Penalties" section of the Online Manners page under Rules & Policies has been updated.

As we have cleaned up the section referring to the account termination punishment for policy infractions, the following two points have been updated:
- We have specified that upon the first policy violation, you can receive a 24, 48, or 72 hour suspension.
- We have corrected the accompanying image.

In order to allow all of our players to enjoy the game with peach of mind, we will be redoubling our efforts to punish those who violate the terms of our policies.

For more information regarding "Account Penalties," please refer to Related Information

http://www.playonline.com/ff11us/pol...ews14494.shtml

whats that mean exactly? if we get GMed for cursing or spaming we can get banned? O.o

I think so. O.o

If this was in place two years ago, the person who harassed me in-game would've gotten a 24, 48, or 72 hour suspension, or possibly a ban and never have bothered me again.

Yet, I had to endure him creating a new mule and repeatedly do it again from each of his newly created mules. Blacklisted his main character and new mules. He eventually deleted one and made another. *sigh*

What did a GM do? Bring him to Mordion Gaol and told him to basically "stop" and "not do it anymore" then sent him back.

Thank you SE, too little, too late unfortunately.

i don't think they actually changed anything regarding "manners", they're just saying they reworded their warning/suspension/ban section.

It always kills me when people get banned/jailed/reported for killing a Charmed character. If we aren't supposed to attack Charmed characters then why even give us the damn option?

Wow, it really does say "peach of mind" on the POL page. That's like the most adorable typo ever.

If killing charmed players was a bannable offense, people would be banned at almost every Undead Swarm Besieged.

Well technically people try to pull off being killed by players as 'harassment' or 'grieving' another player. Which is indeed against the rules. I know it didn't hold up before but maybe now? Since they say they are doubling up on it.

It's buried in the "information" box at the bottom of the page and was posted at 11PM.

I'm movin to the country, I'm gonna eat a lot of peaches
Movin to the country, I'm gonna eat a lot of peaches
Peaches come from a can they were put there by a man
In a factory downtown
If I had my little way I'd eat peaches everyday
Sun soakin bulges in the shade

I took a little nap where the roots all twist
Squished a rotten peach in my fist
And dreamed about you woman
I poked my finger down inside makin a little room for an ant to hide
Nature's candy in my hand or can or a pie

Millions of peaches peaches for me
Millions of peaches peaches for free
Millions of peaches peaches for me
Millions of peaches peaches for free

Look out!
