Water too pure has no Fish

In what fucking world you live ? in my country, you would have less chance to get ill by drinking pure river water where fish are then drinking water you buy in supermarket ...
I will learn you something, if some race of fish live in a river, it show the water is extremely pure (yeah, even if they poo in it ...).

To return on the post topic ..

Please, i don't understand why KMRA server problem are on this EQEMU forum. :(
After Guildwars, now KMRA and tomorrow ? We must make a FLAME server section no ? that is a good idea for child's pleasure :( Sorry but i'm too old.
My advise ? Plz just read forum rules, i think they are here for a good thing...

No worry, it will be your turn soon :/

I stopped playing on KMRA, Ive asked gms if they summoned there stuff mort, they openly say yes. I've been a gm on a few servers and one thing I know is that you have to have competent working gms, who push aside playing on the server and decide that they are there to continue the balance of the server. once a gm decides they are there to play, and moderate, thats when problems arise. some people just like haveing the power, and others realise they are there, and have a responsibility. Ive seen very few gms that realise this on KMRA.

Oh well guys, some people enjoy it, some don't... This is why there are varieties of servers for everyone and if there arn't, guess what.. They can make their own

Some tips that any server could use:

I believe that the current code has, and has had for a few months now, an audit log that it writes to for any command that requires an access level above 0. I suggest that server ops periodically review the file which is probably located under the logs/ subfolder of their eqemu folder.

Also there is a log_level (or something similar) in the variables table. Change the value of this to turn on logging of player trades and possibly other items of interest. This will log certain things to an "eventlog" table that is in the database.

Finally, check the database table "hackers" periodically. Anyone in this table has attempted to use a GM flag hack -- causing the client to believe they are a GM and then using one of the GM-only / commands.

Playing and GMing isn't a big issue if you're just selective with your staff and moderate them via logs.

I'd say not letting your GMs play is a bigger issue because they'll grow bored and quit.
