Rhizome - 7/12/2005 3:04 PM It is surely much easier for me to look at the calendar and see that an event has too many people already and thus refrain from signining-up than it is to sign-up anyway and force the GM of the event to deal with the situation by himself at the beginning of the event. Respect, Rhizome
KageKeeper - 7/12/2005 4:25 PMPersonally I feel this way:It is a players responsibility to check the calendar. That is what it is there for. Other player's should not be penalized because some other player is not able to check on a fairly consistent basis. Many quests are up weeks in advance.The calendar should not be gotten rid of as I think it is a great way of communicating quests and also shows some accountability that quests are being run. Picking a group of players to go on a quest will inevitably lead to claims of favortism.A GM has many responsibilities. One of which should not be babysitting and micromanaging every aspect of a players time. That is the players responsibility. If a quest is full, do not sign up. If you do and you are asked to leave, well, you should know better.There are plenty of quests run each month I think. All across the timezones. I try not to sign up for every single one, but I also do not think we, as players, need to be limited to how many we can go on. In most cases, it is first come first served. Unless you have a key role.We are all supposed to be mature individuals here. We also do not want a lot of restrictions put on us for these types of things. So let's use our intelligence and common sense and police ourselves.Seems prety simple to me.
Zhofe - 7/13/2005 3:00 AMWell, no, a player should not be penalized because he/she was able to check the calander more than someone else, but there is really no reason that Bob the Cleric need to go on 8 quests a month either.
