We hold the individuals who do this accountable for their actions, regardless of rank. However, we can't deal with every mortal player or watch the actions of every mortal due to:

A: other projects.

B: baby-sitting 30 year old men who are dying for attention.

You're right. I'm probably not the first or the last immortal that realized the breeding pit of cheating that mirc is. The difference is, I've managed to learn from my mistakes and leave. You however, continue to make the same mistakes over and over again. Yeah my ##### may stink but I've managed to wipe my ass. You're still groveling in your own #####.

No but I can make some pretty good observations given the right amount of time. These rules have been standing for awhile now. They are pretty clear cut and obvious. You just happen to be one of the few individuals ignoring them. Thanks for your input Jhyrbian but you should get off the computer and go eat. Mom is probably calling you up from your basement.


>Yours truly.
>Jhyrb.
