Confused as to why this came to fruition all of a sudden?
What nonsense comments ... wow. I don't understand why it would be forbidden to create an account that looks like others ????? This game is getting more and more stupid and ridiculous. I do not understand why this deed is judged. One thing is certain.
Why would someone who clearly knows who this other person is create a character with a name similar?
I don't recall having similar names being 'forbidden', but you seem to have missed the entire point here. Sometimes new players find their name they want to use is already taken and then try to add a different letter somewhere but that doesn't mean they're trying to imitate someone. The fact is that someone has created a character with a similar name with the sole purpose of grief play by imitating another player (and there is clear evidence to support this), with no actual intentions of engaging in the content as normal. Let alone the fact the player who committed the offense is suspended. I had someone on Project 69 create their character with the same name as my tao, bar one letter (still to this day have no idea why?) but they didn't use it for grief play and instead actually levelled it and played normally. At the end of the day, we have and always have had zero tolerance for grief play and any such person who likes to test the water will receive the same treatment.
DO NOT GIVE YOUR ITEMS TO ANYONE !!!!!!!!
There are many reminders in game and here on the forum that aim to discourage players from sharing items and accounts.
what's the difference between losing your things between disconnect or pk or giving them away voluntarily ???
To compare item loss to disconnection or PK against theft through breaking a clear rule is overkill, since you should already know this has been a thing since day one of Mir. You'll likely find we are not the only server that has this in place. There aren't that many rules, we want players to feel unchained and not feel micromanaged. The rules we have in place are down to basic common sense and decency.
Regarding wummy or other players who have bad intentions to spoil the game of others, I don't think there should be any policy in this regard. Everyone plays as they please and obeys the rules of the game.
Strangely enough, there is a rule about it: "Impersonating another player or member of staff" falls under the "Forbidden and Punishable Offenses". So if players are following the rules, then there is no issue? I still go back to my previous point though, if you know of a person in game quite clearly, why would you want to create a new character with that name? In what way does this benefit anyone? I can think of only one outcome. (Genuine question btw)
If there are any complaints, it is Scorpian's mistake because he does not create more options for PVE players. Thats why this game lose both PVE and PVP players.
You lost me here I'm sorry.
And when it comes to giving up, I also lost interest in the game as many lost. After months and even years of lvl during an event, like last halloween, a noob can do 15 ... 20 lvls in 1 week .... you lose all your mood. What would be the point of doing lvl when you can sit still and do lvl only in the event .... strange way of thinking about a business .... Scorpian you want active players in the game to spend money. This way ... we will all go to other servers
Events are there to give players something new and give them a break from the normal. Each event has it's own pros and cons and it's not always about getting rich overnight or becoming max level in the week. Some enjoy the events and do well from them, some dislike them and will give us some feedback afterwards. There have been a number of events back to back with everything going on recently so I can imagine this is why you feel this way, but don't forget the big long slog mid-year when there's not a lot going on!
Usually when an event takes place, content releases tend to fall shortly after followed by updates and tweaks en route. So once you finish enjoying an event, we like to have something planned for after.

What would be the point in only logging in for an event just to gain levels? Do you not like to play through content as it's intended? What about gear? What about spells? Upgrades? Sockets? Daily Events/Challenges? Group play?
Fun? On the topic of XP, I don't recall it being all that difficult to level up.
With that mentality we may as well just add an @InstaMaxLevel and @AddAllSpells&Gear command too and turn this into a sandbox server.
For what it's worth, I appreciate the feedback and the time you've taken writing the post.
top class customer service.
