thursday night I get booted 7 times by dr so I say to myself the heck with it I wont hunt at level for a while I'll go to the islands and goof around right? So I go to Ratha, get lost in the sewers as I always do :) then go into scorpions, run around for a bit and stop to work MD so I'm sittin there and my ex-wife shows up then runs off, she does this 3 or 4 times then goes into RF or turns her polo cloak or whatever and is messing with me from hiding so I chuckle and wait for her to appear. Only she doesn't appear, instead I am tossed off the island and back to Crossing, so I assist then have to find my way out of some wierd room I've never been in. And as I'm scrolling back to see this '''BRIGHT YELLOW WARNING''' a GH shows up. I ask her to remove the silly warning from my acct as I am obviously awake and to please put me back on Ratha. She says she cant help, so I demand to see the GM who did this and the GM shows up and says "You were unresponsive" and I say I'm ALWAYS unresponsive with my ex-wife, she likes it that way, we tease each other all the time. The GM wouldn't remove the warning nor put me back in Ratha.

I sent feedback to request the warning be removed, no such luck. SO now I am stuck with a warning because the GM's message wasn't highlghted in yellow like the MASSIVE warning message was. Something needs to change, I get one of these usually around the holidays, where I'll be sitting there and a message will come on my screen saying something like: "Those who are awake please raise your hand." and I will raise my hand. this message was nothing like that, it was something nipping at my nose and I was sure it was my ex.

Handing out warnings like they are candy is a bad idea, and since I was obviously awake considering I assisted instantly(why wouldnt I, I was tossed off an island! heh.) The warning should be removed.

Warnings are for people who afk script, was I doing that? no. Are they removing the warning? no. you do the math...

It does however make me wonder who takes over the controls during the holidays cause it always happens around this time though I always respond, because I'm ALWAYS at the keyboard, apparently that isnt enough. Gotta be somebody on some sort of powertrip, chasing around people to see if they can hand out warnings, its pure shameful. And more importantly its just bad business.

I've had to deal with many undesirable changes to DR over the years just so they can stop afk scripting, changes to weapons and critters and all kinds of stuff that gets changed solely to keep people from afk scripting, and now I get a warning while I'm standing there waiting to get a hug from my ex, would be hilarious if it weren't so sad.
