I know if there's one thing that can get the tempers flaring and the flames going, it's server criticism. Criticism in and of itself isn't prohibited on the forums, but let's keep it constructive. (Yes, it CAN be constructive, even if it usually is not.)
If you go back and read the forum rules, it's personal attacks that aren't allowed. Attack the idea, not the person. That's why I modded lordnoob's first post but left his second.
And last of all, keep in mind that the server ops ARE devoting their free, unpaid time to it. Unlike the gaming companies, they aren't getting any money for the time they spend developing, adding content, balancing, and resolving player issues. So cut them a little slack if things aren't perfect. If you as a player feel the server isn't to your liking for whatever reason, be it amount of downtime or otherwise, it might be time to move on to something that you'll like better.
I've already locked one server criticism post that went south today, so I'll give this one another chance. If I keep seeing what I've been seeing lately though, this one will be getting the padlock on it soon. Keep in mind that personal attacks are against board rules, so if I have to lock this thread because of that, this THREAD might not be the only thing getting locked.
Back to your regularly scheduled surfing...
