Everything I said is very true, can we now move on to the real question. Knowing that, is it still not a problem ?

You could either give the criminals some time to notice the crash (which is fair) or you could, in case of a bloodmoon prevent people from doing certain things which can result in dead criminals. Both things would remove my concern.

Don't keep saying that YOU do not understand what or how, or trying to pin it on the fact that you think that I do not make any sense. If thats the case, you should not disvote or upvote an idea, as you sadly did.

Why don't you say exactly what you mean instead of beating around the bush acting like you have a clue. You sound like you are rambling.

Do you have a unreported bug/exploit?

No, I do not classify it as a bug or exploit, there are plenty of ways to get someones madness level up.

Judaism. I really have no idea what you're talking about so you'll have to be more clear. I've read your last few posts a couple times and I don't know what you're concerned about, you're just not being clear. I think maybe this has something to do with wanting us to make it easier for you to keep criminals online in order to avoid the stocks? But that's not something we really want you to do so we're not going to make it easy. You can do it, but you'll have to deal with bloodmoons and crashes if you do.

Seriously you guys cannot work out what juda is trying to say ? It seemed pretty obvious to me. (Hope im not wrong)

Higher end Criminals tend to stay logged in 24/7 and maintain their madness levels, to prevent stocking.

Other players intentionally crash the server, Other players login and summons criminals into the stocks.

Criminals are stocked by people intentionally crashing the server then quickly stocking them when it comes back up, and potentionally getting a kill on them for free, bypassing intended working game mechanics. Bug exploiting ? Abuse of the game?

If crashing the server to get these effects are intended, then just make it so that online characters can be summoned to the stocks.

To counter this, he suggests no one can be stocked for X amount of time after a server restart from a crash.

I suspected as much, which is why I said in my previous comment that we don't really want you staying online 24/7 to avoid the stocks. We can't make stocking while you are online a thing or every raid could be ended before it began by having someone quick enough to go out and grab a waste scent from the wall basher and summon them to the stocks for the next couple hours.

Now, you can stay online 24/7 right now to avoid your just punishment, but there are consequences. You have to risk the madness. Of course we don't approve of the deliberate crashing of the server, but we'll just have to fix the bug that is doing it.

Some other fancy stuff? If you think there's a particular bug that needs to be fixed aside from the lasso bug we already know about, I wish you'd just out with it. You're being very annoying.
