Thank you for the replies.
I definetely understand that it's not players business to find out what happens after making a report, so no contest there.
While I do agree that ideally I should have given a more descriptive report, the circumstances weren't exactly allowing for such a thing. I'm pretty sure as soon as I sent out that report I got sting by a ling 30 seconds later. But even then, I do believe a reply asking for more details would have sufficed.
Of course, and I can relate (though its definetely not on the same level) in regards to MentorHelps. I do hope it didn't come across as if there's supposed to be any ill will directed towards anyone.
In regards to this however
I'm aware of this, and people have bought it up alot whenever I've vented about bad rounds. However, the issue I find is that 1. it gives people looking for a reaction exactly what they want, 2. only incites other people into violence (ie. if the HoS is doing then, then Im going to as well) and 3. it's something that I've purposefully haven't done. While theoretically I could start dishing out punishments by death, it's the exactly the sort of thing that turned me off whenever I read about old HoS' and their attitudes. I'm self-concious of what people think of me and behaving exactly like the personalities I dislike is not something I want to have to do. It's provocative and it doesn't make anything better.
And truth be told, people that go out of their way to be intentionally obnoxious won't stop because an HoS told, or killed, them to. The people that respect the HoS are the ones that aren't getting caught carrying half the armoury in their backpocket. It's the sort of thing only an admin can properly enforce
