myRAN Private Server

This is concerning the GMs' attitude in-game.

I know this is a free server. Like RAN PH or any other game, the ones in-charge of the game at a given time (we call them GMs), are suppose to maintain harmony and enforce the rules. They can do that by chatblocking, banning, etc.

They are also bound by rules (or are they?). Given freedom to do something extraordinary tempts us to abuse it and cause trouble rather than the original purpose of having it.

I also know that most of the GMs are inexperienced or should I call it immature? I see GMs flood the chat window, react to questions that shouldn't even be a big deal, see them being provoked by the players (Player attitude is another topic), and see them being killed.

As for the CW issue, i wasn't there exactly, but for me, there's fire when there's smoke. I would incline to believe that some of the GMs are just players who wants to have higher power over other players and doesn't want any of the responsibilities tied to it.

Pick GMs well, it's essential to not having a chaotic game environment.

==========================================
this is an additional: 2 points that i want to highlight.

1. Should GMs be considered as a role model or a peacekeeper?
The "clowei" character is a GM. If this will be considered as a Bad Mouth (BM) for that character, then it should be chatblocked. And there's one GM ("ellysa") that speaks spanish or so she thinks, how can you possibly resolve something by speaking a language foreign to a person?

2. Should GMs play among common players?
There is a sense of imbalance here. If you refer to the same screenshot, you will notice that my character was hostiled (killed 1-hit / 32K damage) by "clowei" (GM). What do you think my character should do faced against a superior one?

My overall impression on this gaming community (myRAN) is damaged when all these incidents happened. Being free and all entitles you to these undisciplined, unfortunate, frustrating instances. I admit, I like the features of this server but I am unsure of the people that run it. This community is still young and good culture can still be put in starting with those who are in-charge.

I just found out that the "clowei" character is edited.

Can I have my character edited too?

Well... as far as I know, "clowie" is not a GM.. just an edited character. Anyway, this incident is not unknown to the owner GM bl4k... just give him time to think what is best for the server... If he decides to close the server, we can't do anything about it.

as far as i concern i dont tolerate this kind of attitude for a GM or even a normal player. hope the admin can do some action about this. Clowei is not a GM but act like a GM but the problem is that he`s worse than a GM. im here in this server since this was created and i proudly says that this is a gud server with a very nice ADMIN. but it slowly getting worse bcoz of the action and doing of this NON SENSE-SELF PROCLAIMED CLOWEI. we hope that admin will do something about this coz im tired to this self proclaimed gm.

Hi Ellysa,

You are using the M_E_A_G_A_N and ISHA characters, right?

You didn't do any violation (I was talking to the clowei character) and you were reacting to our conversation. I think that's where the misunderstanding started.

I'm the one you messaged before the server went off. I apologize for a rather rude conversation. I was so pissed off by that clowei character. I wasn't able to save screenshots (I thought it was automatically saving to a directory) save for 1 which is attached to the original (1st point).

Then you were speaking spanish, crudely, I didn't understand what you are trying to convey... which kinda pissed me off more.

oh i see,, im not the one using M_E_A_G_A_N and ISHA,, my characters are CuTiE-=YsA, OcToBeR`FeSt, -=Konan=- and NaGaTo,,

ianthe · Private First Class

If you're not using those characters, then he or she was impersonating you. She introduced herself as ellysa.

I'm getting dizzy.

Admin Blackjack,

An unfair game won't last. Chaos in-game or even in real life will bring it down.

If one of your objectives for this server is popularity or quality, you must do something to make it fair.

Cheats are fun but the fun it brings is short-lived.

This comment is a result of a bad experience in-game, please take it as constructively as possible.
