Fmes have always existed. If you look at old enough sections of the GDB you can see hypothetical tales of tressy tress and stuff. It's always been a meme and mudseches has always been a factor of Armageddon RP. Whether it's FTB or otherwise one of the methods of assassination back in the day used to be get them into the apartment and nekkid then knife em good.

ShaLeah Unfortunately... If we accept Shalnooosh really did give access to his discord account. and If we believe that staff are competent enough discord users to check properly. then The conversation with Kaitrena or Katerina or whatever the spelling is would still exist even if it is only one sided. They would just need to go up to the top left side where it lets you search for discussions and you'd enter in her username. The issue is if she has changed her username you'll need to know the first letter to be able to find the old convo. So deleting everything would just remove his side of the convo. Like the things he said, but not her replies nor the timestamp on those replies. Unless he swapped out his entire discord account which is possible which is why the staff would have to check a convo between him and someone else to make sure it backdates to prior to the incident.

1. Attempting to improve is not in itself improvement. 2. You're right I forgot about the 'accurate lunar update' that truly improved the game for all. 3. You have no idea what my hobby is, you literally don't know me. I had a very good year thank you. 4. I'm the one dripping spittle? How so, where do you come up with this insult? I criticize of course but so do you. Do we both drip spittle? Do you drip less spittle than me or more spittle or do you simply drip it better?
>_> Like between the two of us at least I can retain a coherent posting history. How many contradictory positions have you taken on these forums over the years?
EDIT - For those curious the hobby I made improvement in this year was DND 5e tabletop. I helped fund Foundry Virtual Tabletop as well as several battlemap artists and reached a new level of quality in my online sessions. I even think it improved by MU writing although it did change the voice to a more narrative instead of proper english literature style of writing.

Isn't the Two Moons tribe so poorly written for the setting that someone else posted horror stories of being a member of it on this forum?
EDIT - PS how is the new subguilds and spice decay working out?

Saying staff should get rid of someone isn't the same as an obligation to do so.
I can say staff should get rid of Shalnooosh without that creating an expectation or imperative that they -have- to.
Just like I can tell Wildflower they should bring back their mushroom Caesar salad instead of this hardboiled egg one they currently have.
It is a preference/request conveyed by someone.
Sometimes you'll even see a should and a qualifier. The staff should remove Nyr if they don't want to lose players. Are they obligated to? Newp. Should they? If they wish to avoid the outcome that is qualified, maybe.
Finally the denial that any opinion anyone has doesn't affect staff thinking therefore you shouldn't share your opinion with any expectation it will do any good is... Dumb. People have an opinion, they fire it off into the ether of the internet, whether they expect it to do anything or not who cares. If someone thinks they're making a difference and they aren't percisely why does it matter enough for them to stop?

Hey Qwerty how about you just tell us why the staff did what. You clearly know many things and have inside information.
Why did the staff link Kaitrena with Okthen. Why did they tell her he was banned but then tell him everything was fine? Lay it all out for us.

You do not need to be friends or on a server with someone to msg them (depending on their settings)
Mutual Friend would require that someone be on your friend list and hers (not just sharing a server or able to msg freely)
Mutual server doesn't really prove anything
Both mutual friend and mutual server are not persistent so as soon as the complaint was made someone could have unfriended her and then removed her from the server or just unfriend her and then a mutual server match doesn't matter. It's not like the staff ever contested that she was a part of the arm discord server did they?
EDIT - TLDR Without direct account access screen shots, video, share screen all have varying levels of spoof ability in general and with discord it's pretty much get their login and password or bust for 100% verify. I would point out Shalnooosh could just give his account and password to staff and even if he deleted all his msgs to Kaitrena and unfriended here they could bring up the history of the conversation because her messages would be there.

The issue with the photoshop argument is it probably wasn't photshop. Assuming it is fake it'd be someone making a discord account and naming it the same as Shalnooosh and putting the same picture. This then makes it appear as if Shalnooosh is talking to them except the #IDNUMBER after each name and then the longer #ACCOUNTIDNUMBER which you can see in dev mode. As I pointed out in another thread though even without photoshop you can spoof all that stuff if you're determined enough.
Also likely they were putting in extra effort because of the reddit thread. Just declaring this person is wrong doesn't look good if the broader community (10 people or whatever) start rabblerousing for an explanation of why she is wrong/lying.

Questions... They will be redundant.
1. You are Okthen? 2. You were not banned until you spoke to staff about the IP addresses? 3. Kaitrena was deemed to have lied because she was linked to your account which was historically 'grudging' with the staff?
If the majority yes...
4. Why were you not disciplined if the staff believed you were involved in a public hoax accusation of a staffer? 5. Was Kaitrena banned for falsely reporting Shalnooosh or did they decide her quitting was sufficient? 6. I'm an advocate of just posting the request tool when you're quitting if you have it. If you would be so kind?
As a note to any readers. It is very common to see people who leave a game after a long time get hung up on singular points. It may look nonsensical or 'crazy' to the outside observer but any game that you have an emotional investment in suddenly becoming a place you are unwelcome or do not want to play again is like breaking up with someone. You're going to fixate and be like "I can't event" and kind of harp on the same points. Thus it would be pretty petty to snipe ate niles for quitting the game and blowing up at staff even though he wasn't technically punished.

Taven was boss and I hope her writing career has taken off since she left the game.

Jcarter and Nyr don't really match. My thoughts would be Shaleah and Whorehouses. Desertman and Byn. Topkek and Mafia Kronibas and Weed Bitter and walls of text Shaleah and Whorehouses, what an extremely feminist sense of humor from a staff who would be incapable of doing any of the things it's accused of.

I personally think lethal and poorly implemented city guard code which can lead to whoopsie deaths with no rollbacks or like toggle newbcrime.
If you are in a bar brawl and type the wrong command you get 86'd by the NPCs inside. Unless you flee, then you can be arrested. The issue is the whoopsie moment in a situation that auto submit to guards won't save you is an example of a system issue.
Obviously there are others but this one is kind of a good case of both a staff issue (no support in correcting) and a system issue (it is working properly).
