Commander, I'm happy I found this community. It's a fascinating social environment combined with a brilliant game. And yep, patience is key. The more moving parts an issue has, the slower it goes. I'm replying so quickly not because I'm in a hurry for an outcome, but because it's actually been a very interesting discussion.  

Savanah, thanks for getting into more details on how you'd envision a parole system. There are compelling reasons to use an entirely honor-based approach. That said, any changes to the pearl system could be used going forward in any number of other situations, and would not have to be a one-off situation. Your  basic question still remains: Is it worth it? I could actually see myself using honor or a leash, depending on the situation.

Okay, I think this will have to be my last post for the day. Catch you all later.

Edit #1: I'm also glad to know there's a protocol for alt-catching. Thanks for mentioning it.

good god what a thread guys..

im not reading all of that

prison pearl won't be changed, consider it a unalterable aspect of the natural order of the game beyond changing, like gravity

you can only use it or avoid it but not alter it

i really think you should just release him, or charge him a reasonable fee (or whatever you've already taken) and let him loose

if he misbehaves you can capture him again anyway

"im not reading all of that"

Intangir is a lazy bastard, we're all screwed.

no i posted a new thread on the principles of the matter

it is alot shorter than this monster thread

"no i posted a new thread on the principles of the matter

I know, I read it 

        I am willing to free you under these conditions. Only if you follow these conditions WHOLELY.

1. No whining about your lost stuff.
2. No entering Orange City.
3. No more greifing.
4. No more pranks.
5. No more causing trouble in general.
6. No more stealing.

              Agreeing to this means that your next violation of these stipulations means pearling again.

without fair arbitration or any other options any agreement to such severe terms is obviously under duress

SIMON THIS WHOLE LONG ASS NOTE IS HIS ARITRATION.

Orange city access/building, etc and its water ways are temporarly revoked.  
if no nonsense it can be allowed in future.

Give it time, prove you understand, and will actually do it this time

then i will advise him he doesn't have to give in to such one sided unreasonable terms

Commanders proposal


1. No whining about your lost stuff.
2. No entering Orange City.
3. No more greifing.
4. No more pranks.
5. No more causing trouble in general.
6. No more stealing.

I agree to all of these terms, except number 2. I would like to access Orange City for shops, and minor other things.

Savanahmile can work that out with me I hope.

If pranks, greifing, if I cause problems on purpose, I accept the pearl.

        Good to hear.

zounds and horras

btw you damn well ought to stay off of savanah's property or she will surely pearl the shit out of you

and i won't give much of a shit anymore because you have no business on her property anyway and you couldn't be more warned on what to expect

"5. No more causing trouble in general."

Careful agreeing to this, Shystan. You may think you are being released, but the wording is ambiguous enough that you could (will) remain wholly in their control.



The just don't have to bargain.

#FreeShystan

ya a few of those were pretty vague but hes released now

glad to see yall mostly worked it out

sorry if i was harsh on you commander but social pressure is a valid way of trying to affect change without it coming to force
