Clarification On Non-Blizzlike Policy Of Nostalrius

by Nain » Fri May 29, 2015 2:32 am

Hi, I'm asking for clarification on the custom rule that was recently implemented due to a large volume of complaints coming from the lower-level playerbase about mistreatment from higher level opposite-faction players.

The rule I'm speaking of is the one which states that killing quest NPCs will result in a ban or suspension of the account involved.

I've been told from one source that simply killing quest NPCs will earn me a ban, and from another, that I simply can't kill stay at a quest hub for too long.

Can I have some clarification on how you intend to supervise this new and custom rule? How long can I stay at one place? On the retail servers, for the last 11 years for tens of millions of players, this has never been a rule that's existed, so I don't really have any idea how this will precisely be. Please share with me (and us) how you intend to enforce your new policy.

camping (for too long) has always been considered as harassment by blizzard and got punished. whether its a quest npc or a player.

So if horde decides to try and raid Ironforge and they fight there for an extended amount of period that's bannable? Incredibly short sighted and dumb decison by the management if that's the case.
oh, ok.

You may not know this but even back in Vanilla staying in an area where you could kill Quest Npcs on low level players was considered harassment by blizzard as well in Vanilla, this rule actually came out after the first wave of people hit 60 and some of these said people started doing this for days on end, you cannot have a server if all you do is harass the new people that come so blizzard changed that rule even in Vanilla. In fact they even made it so harassing a low level for hours upon hours was considered harassment near the end of Vanilla.

So take that into consideration.

If you lot could for one second forget everything you knew about wow and think about the situation. You would ofc see it as something that that needs restrictions and needs policing. Some additional clarification would be nice though.

Holy hell, 50-90g every two minutes? Even if it is split among a group or even decent sized raid, that could ruin an in-game economy.
