roleplay gone wrong.
Beefie, if it was done In Character, it is not "Role-Play gone wrong." It is "Role-Play moving in a direction other than what was expected, anticipated, and desired by the organizers." And that is 100% acceptable. ESPECIALLY in a sand-box game like Ryzom purports to be.
If you are going to have a public RP event, be prepared for it to go in a way other than what you expect. You can't sit high and mighty on your RP throne and expect that everyone will just tremble at your fingertips and abuse your powers to make that happen if they don't.
If something happens in-character, respond to it in-character or not at all.
Muting was not acceptable.
Teleporting was not acceptable.
Acceptable Response:
- Resetting Matis fame to -50
- Then spawning guards sufficient to kill the "unwelcome guests"
- After killing the unwelcome guests, let them know that continuing to return to the event would be considered RP-griefing and dealt with harshly (by porting and muting)
I think a public apology from the events team for responding in an out-of-character manner bordering on abuse of powers is appropriate, as well as a promise not to do this again.
