It's not fun because we don't have a chance. You come around every day demanding money and diamonds so we don't have a chance to get resources back! When we don't have the resources, you attack and raid us! It's impossible! You're retarded!

You have made it sufficiently clear that you are not "detached" from the situation out of character, even though that's what you wish to convey here. I can't just say "Well, my character is unbiased, so my decision is the right one." This is entirely irrelevant, and I've seen you say it other times.

If I am wrong, I apologize for my misreading of the situation. I was under the impression that there were occasional raids every now and then now rather than constant raids as there were before we cracked down on them. I have absolutely no problem, then, with complaints regarding the actual frequency of said raids. That is definitely something to be dealt with. What I do not agree with is the grasping for ways to ban them. If there was a simple complaint on the frequency of raiding, then the answer is simple: The staff tells them to slow down or they get banned. Easy as that. It doesn't take 9 pages of arguing to do that. However, it did, and that is what I am addressing.

The other things still happened. It's stuff they were previously warned, like burning items, and raiding without permission. Was the screenshot posted where I tell Conor that the raiding ban was still in effect? 3 raids followed. They certainly knew that they were rule-breaking. Pwolbart once threw items out of a base, and when I caught him, Saera warned him. He did it again today. Why doesn't that matter?

I just said that I am most certainly not always right... I thought it was worth noting that my character despises them. Anyways, those are things where we say 'Ok, you did this again. One more time and you're banned' rather than OHHHH SNAP BANHAMMA!

Aaaaand you just butchered all of the RP reasoning.

On hungergames servers one can fully arm themselves with iron armor and swords within 15 minutes, even while hiding from almost a hundred other hostile players in a much smaller map.

Whoever honestly thinks it is hopeless needs to give their heads a shake.

In addition, Lava hardly represents the whole of Solitude, considering, ya know, he joined the town yesterday XD

You conveniently missed the point about arming up easily didn't you?

You see crash, maybe I don't want to dawn my prot 4 diamond armor to go fight people who will only attack by surprise or in groups of 3 or more. Then follow up by assailing you every day after the fact, maybe they should learn to take the peace offer and act civil toward other people rather than just being dicks to everyone on the server.

They gave you a peace offer.. a legitimate peace offer, in an RP style, which would promote further RP.
