Zombies in the Bluzone** [[CLOSING]]

[Mr. Jelly]

No, she did not even spawn.

She said something like "I joined and my screen was spammed with text so I just set a name"

Wait, the rules only come up when you spawn

It still says in the welcome message that it is a serious roleplay and to pick a serious name or be banned.
People don't seem to understand how many people we have to deal with on these servers that break the rules.
It gets really old to have to continuously tell people over and over again to stop doing something multiple times especially when there's usually three people doing stuff (i.e. shoving people for no reason, not picking an appropriate name, etc.) every ten minutes.

"I didn't feel like reading all that text" is not a valid excuse.
Period.

Ok, but someone could at least given her some sort of warning that was not in the welcome message.

He makes a valid point, it's true that the welcome message is typically
"HEY %1, WELCOME TO MY AWESOME SERVER, HOSTED BY (hosts name), ADMINISTRATED BY ..., PEED ON BY ...,"
you get the idea.


However, if you join the bluzone server, and are not willing to read, then you should leave the bluzone server.


I'm going to add a system that will automatically kick you if you don't read the welcome message based on a code included in it. good or bad idea?

also, for the record, syntho did say "I really want to ban you right now"

I don't think it's possible to have the player's computer scan your brain to check if they read it or not.

Exactly, how would she notice it would have been any different?
Give her another chance, please. I was really looking forward to RPing with her which was a smashed hope within 20 seconds. :|

Might be a good idea, but Electrk had a point there about the brain scan thing lulz.

You just proved you didn't read my post. Great job!

YOUR STORY MAKES NO SENSE, MR WOLFMASTER

[Lugnut]

even better, I'll make the thing intercept /setname and such and not work until they've read the welcome message

She was banned before she even could spawn to read the rules.

Plus

It still says in the welcome message that it is a serious roleplay and to pick a serious name or be banned.

Lugnut, why the forget do you admin those people? It's your server.

Out of curiosity, how would the code indicate whether they had read the welcome message or not?

BUT

you had stated that she had her screen "spammed with text"

the rules appear only when you spawn

iirc the welcome message is like, 3 lines

that's not a lot

[Lugnut]

Lugnut, why the forget do you admin those people? It's your server.

because it's kniaz's server, I'm just the loving host/scripter.

They're actually quite fair. I suggest you come back in a day once you're calmed down a little bit more. Seriously, works wonders.



also, electrk, a loving /rules mod isn't going to help here, and if I wanted a forgetnig /rules mod I would make one myself

I do not know how to recover IRC messages, but I know a log exists. where is it?
Fyi, the spammed with text was a bit of a metaphor. It's easy to assume that it will be the same as the rest of the messages which lugnut stated earlier.

[Mr. Jelly]

What was the name she selected?
