Code: Select all
Greetings,
Usually we do not make announcements when a player or wizard is punished or
deleted (which is very rare), however, we have decided to make an exception
to avoid the spreading of rumours as best as possible.
Today, we have deleted the mortal Saya and the wizard Zizuph.
Saya/Zizuph has not been deleted for one specfic rule violation, instead
it's a pattern of behavior that we simply do not feel is acceptable. Not
for a wizard and not for a player, and since these two characters are so
intertwined and several of the rule violations affect both characters, they
have both been deleted. It should also be noted that deletion is almost never
our first option, and in this case Saya/Zizuph has been warned, and later
also, suspended, and then warned again, but unfortunately he has not changed
his behavior.
The rule violations include:
- Failure to separate mortal and wizard characters and failure to be a
'wizard first' and keep a low profile as mortal.
- Using 'wiz info' inappropriately.
- As Saya, letting other players know he is also Zizuph, which is against
wizard rules.
- Sharing alt and personal info about other players without their consent.
- Inappropriate conduct towards other players in and out of game.
Deleting a character is always something we use as a last resort, and it
never feels good to delete someone. However, after a very thorough
investigation, and because previous talks and punishments have not had the
desired effect, we feel this is the only reasonable action, and an action
we must take.

P.S. There has been many rumours and accusations surrounding Saya/Zizuph,
and also accusations made against me and the admin. I have written a post
on the forums where I answer some of these rumours, and you are also
welcome to ask any questions you want and I will try to answer them as
best and honestly as I can. There is just one exception, out of respect
for the involved players I will not answer any questions related to the
last rule violation in the list above.
Some of you may be unaware of all of this, but for some players and wizards
it's really been a pretty rough year 'drama-wise', and I also feel a lot of
trust between wizards and mortals have been lost. So, if you also feel it
would be good to clear the air, I invite you to the forums. Let's talk. I
am sure you will find the right thread over there.
