The definition of griefing

[Sebiale]

The fence was holding back wildlife, he just killed it all. And if we allowed one person to grief two blocks, why wouldn't everyone just grief two blocks.

You want a fully functioning RP experience but you ban people who do just that. you should be able to do what you like ,in a RP sense, without the fear of getting banned. Creator's character was a pirate and he was raiding, He shouldn't have to stop and think, well i should probably not go in there because i might get banned :/. He was acting the way his character would have acted, a minor 'grief' like that should not have been a bannable offence. The fact is that if this were a RP experience, you would realise that he was raiding and he broke into the farm to pillage, exactly what pirates do. your giving contradictory rules. even in 2.0 people would get banned for minor offences. Can you please reconsider your rules and define in more detail what each rule is.

Obviously people aren't allowed to do certain things, regardless of their RP.
What would be the point of the rules if I could just go, "Oh but I'm a pirate, therefore I get to do whatever the #$%^ I want."
Realistic perhaps, but almost undoubtedly not very fun for everyone the pirate goes after who isn't playing a character that's got an RP pass to just do general #$%^-all behavior.

As I recall, in K2 the general rule was that you replace what you destroy when you're stealing things, unless you're at war, then I believe you were allowed to destroy structures and the like.
