Hey all,

Recently I have encountered some serious problems with Anonymous users.
A certain anon in-particular, (I can't name him because he signs in and signs out every 5-10 seconds). EVERY time I come on-line a room an anon has created is called 'LiamOwns is cigarette'. This 'room' has been active for about a week now. I have contacted members of staff,moderators, talked to friends etc. At the moment nothing is being resolved...

If anyone could contact me about how to stop this room being made, a clde or something it would be much appreciated.

I believe anonymous users (seeming they don't make accounts) should not have the rights as registered users:
-Chat
-Room Making
-Game Creation (but still be able to join games)

I believe that the the chat should be disabled for anons because if they get 'muted' for 3 minutes they can just sign in as a different anon... How is that fair?? They aren't learning their lesson. So therefore I think that they shouldn't be allowed to chat because me (and many other users) have been hurled:
-Abuse
-Chat Spamming
-Lying
-Spreading rumours
-Room making "LiamOwns is cigarette" "Doom is lame"

Also a certain anon made an account called 'doom is lame' I don't know how that this was aloud in WI list of names but 'lame' shouldn't be allowed.

I hope that you read and view my concerns,
Please take this into account and try to help all of us REGISTERED USERS.

Thanks,
Liam Murphy[/u]

I seen the rooms before do you realy think it's hurting you their your fans. Even if your not an anon you can still make rooms called some ones lame and just leave and come back to rest the internial timer

Just have fun with them.

those rooms which you talk about, liam, are not made by anons. The Doom is lame room was made by someone with the account "doom is lame" (I've seen him online) and as for the Liam is a cigarette, I saw that some player named "Liam is a cigarette" created the room. So it's not a problem of anons, its a problem of people defaming others

lol... you don't even know what scott did. It's not a matter of an account ban, the 3 minute mute is a DEVICE ban (so the guy's DEVICE is muted, NOT his account) although you can avoid the wait by exiting the game and going back in.

Yes, all those changes sound appropriate to me. But u might be able to give Scott some stats, like what anon he was and when, so that he can identify and punish him accordingly.

Woulden't scottlu computer login some where when a new room was created and he could find out who's ip adress it is and tell them to stop?
Or maybe the time and date so he could look for it in his files.

Maybe if he could do it?

It's just bullying, there is in my opinion no way to fully get it out of warfare Inc. I would just reccomend making a new account if all else fails

I can help with this problem. I will look at my records and see if I can spot who it is, and deal with it appropriately. Bullying is definitely not allowed.

Liam and anyone else, in the future be sure to PM me directly.

Thanks.

Other things Liam:

- As of last night, there are chat room moderators on the MP servers, that can ban or kick off players with bad behaviors. I made the moderator feature to help with situations like this.
- if a player gets muted they will stay muted even if they log off and log on again (fixed this last night)
- swear word detection is being put in this coming week for both chat and room names.

Miner here <grin>...

Agreed that the bullying gets a bit tiresome. And anons who bail out of games are annoying, no doubt.

Just wanted to say, I've been playing as anon a lot lately for my own reasons. Mainly to try new maps and to TRY and get better at this infernal game.

Anyway- please do not restrict the "rights" of anon's, especially the abilityto create games. Anons are people too! We have needs, wants, and desires, albeit somewhat... anonymous ones. Smile

See y'all on a map!
