You are sooooooo banned when I get back, Jadeth.

Look. I don't play this game successful, and I don't play it well. My english is still slow and my vocabulary is small. I can't commit myself enough to successfully push character goals.
Yet, DMs speak with me, give me advice, and sacrifice their spare time.
Yet when I start to pursue a storyline they help me out with advice, they help me out when problems arise like another player retire a char with a crucial plot item or I don't have time to get things arranged because RL things, they help me solve it.
Despite the fact I suck.
They also discuss favoritism and try to get rid of it should it be present.Basically, they work while we play. And yes… they play too, but it requires much more structured and consistent game time from them.
We need not to flame them for even every real mistake, not to mention phantoms.
The guys at Netheril Rising work, while you play.
Yet you ruin their reputation possibly without being a big help in other fields or being part of their crew.You should probably read your own stuff, and say sorry to someone. Or everyone, but I wouldn't dare to judge that.

What can I say?
I might have been tempted, but if this is the kind of attitude I can expect from the players on that server I'm quite content to remain here.
"I assume you'll be rude to me if I try to be polite" IS NO EXCUSE for ignoring good manners.

Netheril Rising deserves better representation. I know personally, if I had time for NWN right now, thats where I would be. Its not that I hate CoA, in fact I genuinely like most of the dms here and bow to the effort Zool has made over the past year going from not knowing how to do shit scripting and toolset-wise to catching up CoA with the rest of the NWN world in custom stuff. The problem has never been the individual DM, but rather the collective thought that they as DMs are more important then the player. This is where I think Netheril Rising goes above and beyond what one expects from a Persistant World. They understand that it is a truly symbiotic relationship between player and DM that makes a server great, and will never put their ego's or personal thoughts of a player before what is good for the game. That coupled with a setting that is flush with opportunity to manipulate and grow your characters reputation is why I would pick that over one of the other servers if I were playing. I don't know what their launch date is, but you should check out #Netherilrising on irc if what I said sounds good to you. Maybe in a few months when real life settles down for me, I'll see you there :)

Stop trying to defend CoA. We're awesome, no need to let trolls get under our skin.
You want to play another server? More power to you.
People poaching players are the ones with a grief against CoA anyway, likely got denied for an app or something.

I think what was to be said in this thread has been said. I am locking it now so civility can be the order of the day.
