From clanmail, writen by Kotrin:
We are a great and numerous community, but many members join first and ask questions later. I think they didn't even paid a visit to Warriors' Guild rules here:
http://www.warriors-guild.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=10
The guild suffered a recent wave of AFK members. AFK means Away From Keyboard, people quitting a battle before it ends, or even starts. Well, it's a big issue. The very purpose of the Guild was to get rid of AFK players! Handling every case in the Justice forum is lenghty, but also too complicated: people going AFK are usually perfectly aware of what they've done.
Therefore (clear throat), members caught going AFK will now get BANNED from the Warriors' Guild, UNLESS:
FIRST, They immediately send excuses to *everyone* involved in battle, and at least 500 gold to each of their *teammates*.
SECOND, They notify me that they went AFK, providing a link to the battle.
Actions have to be taken within 24 hours. I'll check transfer logs and randomly contact people involved to check. Of course, in case of repeated offenses the member will still be banned.
AFK isn't punished more severely than before, it's just that members now have to take the initiative. If you spot some Guild member going AFK, you can notify me via private message and I'll handle the affair. The Justice forum can still be useful for other rule breaks. |
