Dman now does the same thing to skn demanding my departure or will attack the nation.
He also did the same thing to me in Kiribati. Pro in the past did this to me when i joined SSAA, and Pro was punished for his actions in past history.
I reported this behavior as griefing as this behavior has been continued for a week or two and was happening before i arrived at [GUARD]. The attitude behind these attacks has been very toxic and deluge has been toxic in both actions and behavior.
I call for a public reporting of these two. Dman has been very toxic in forums. His reasonings for his attacks have all been the same excuse of using my name, stan rogers, el draque, and magnus for his unprovoked griefed attacks. Every attack of his is someone elses fault be it their faulty action identified by hoax and fake belief he so call has.
His extortions along woth anyone he does the extortiona with need addressed as this has gone long enough to be tolerated in game. This toxic behavior is affecting me, new players in GUARD, and a few others that wish to stay anonymous of the issue.
They have affevted my gameplay and i have been unable to join nations without dman forcing me out of the nation based on his threats. This happened in kiribati (a nation i really wanted to help with france) and now with st kitts nevis knowing i have financially backed the nation in its recovery and because of some excuse not associated with and skn member, he yet again sings a threat that yet again puts risk on St kitts nevis.
A few more things he does that are toxic are:
Cast excessive voodoo when plundered, nukes ports when attacked with voodoo retaliation, has obscene mouthtalk in forums, uses deluge as a proxy, extorts new players or weakened players to feel strong, attacks whomever he pleases and gets protected no matter the situation by guildmates or proxies like taylorx, and makes jokes about gays, transgenders, and parental jokes that younger eyes should not see.
Why hasnt dmanwuzhere been banned or punished officially by administration for this kind of behavior ?
That is all i will say about this horrid toxicity.
Here is my honest opinion on the matter.
Are dman's actions an exploitation of game mechanics? No.
Do dman's actions ruffle feathers? Yes
Do dman's actions create a negative environment in game? Sometimes, but not always.
Does a negative environment mean it's toxic game play? Not necessarily.
Dman is not exploiting the game. While Dman's actions are not liked by many, his actions are within the game design. If his actions are pushing the bounds of what the community as a whole finds acceptable, it is the communities duty, not the administration, to take action. Come together as a community and take him on in game. As I last checked, dman is one player and even if he had support of a few others, the community as a whole is quite large. Resources could easily be pulled to fight against him.
As for the issue of griefing, if those involved are in any way instigating dman's conduct, then they are themselves at fault and it is not griefing.
This of course is just my opinion.
