dude what the fuck is this translation

Once word spreads of the effects of getting infected, I wonder if players could abuse the defense buff.
From the sounds of it, it makes players look like a weird enemy, but not like any other mob in the game, so it’d be easy to differentiate who is a player when infected. You could operate on prior agreed plans (assuming that communication is impossible while infected) to abuse the defense stat boost for raids and such. The downside would probably be that NPCs are hostile to you, but guilds could likely work around that.

 

[REMasher]

An interesting end to that little sub-plot.

Well it didn't seen like the player was out of their mind, which makes sense since if an effect would cause the players mind to be affected they would be made to close the game, so for players likely there is not any effect other than becoming in a state like a PK'er.

Really were we supposed to fell something by the erasure of the player? They were just banned and account ended, it is not like anything serious happened.

but we saw how she was banned not by the devs directly but by the game itself, which is kinda crazy ... I could believe it happened like that as the investor just last chapter went to show how real the game was getting

Brother - it's "they're."

Their - belongs to them
There - at that location
They're - they are

edit: and holy shit, did I seriously just see

everyt-

at least put the hyphen between syllables

every-
thing

You know, I thought initially that good ol’ underducation stroke again. But then I started to recognize the pattern that it happens (almost) only in El’s speak. And somewhere it was commented that she speaks in weird 400-700 years old dialect, or something. In the end I suspect that this speech pattern is intentional, so no need to be a buttplug of grammar Reich. Probably.

 

[Wolvenworks]

This….is rough. Needs more proofreading. Also, lots of empty bubbles.

But we do learn some new info at least, no least that that’s where the last wanted girl was the entire time, and a full wipe is what happens when a player gets executed…i wonder if repeat offenders get some kinda full wipe + user metric-based ban (IP, user data from headgear analysis, etc)

You forgot this game in the setting is a ground for AI research as well. As the game getting new patches, the AI became more self aware and replicate our real world system in some way.

Earth is one of the subject as their AI interacting with him has the most varied reactions. We have to remember the game also have human NPC and players are locked as Human in this game. So using their own ruling system, they just follow the law.

Compared to our RL MMO moderation, they take more flavour approach here.

 

[gormadoc]

Before you get too far, the new elf is probably supposed to be "Louise". "Louis" is a male name.

 

[Claith]

The unprocessed material effect is less interesting than I thought it'd be.

What are the pvp rules in this game anyways? Can't remember. Seems like it just made the character to through an elf darkening process. She was already flagged for being wanted.

She was chatting and laughing with a bunch of monsters (probably what she made her armor from) and seemed to get angry that her friends were killed. She thought the players were weird looking monsters, so it's definitely a reality changing filter.

In classic ragnarok online there is in game GM characters and they are devs walking around and can ban anyone, I assume this is the case.

But if it is not, the closest thing I can think is wind meet west, where NPC can issue bounty on bad players, like players harass NPC.

 

[Kaarme]

That player can't be banned if she didn't break any server rules. Just using elf forest monster materials and going crazy isn't breaking server rules because it was the devs that made the materials have that effect. Having a wanted poster is not an indication of breaking server rules because admins don't need to post wanted posters. They just ban a player from entering the game in the first place, after kicking him/her out. So, a wanted poster and turning hostile are mere in-game mechanics. Who knows what happened to that player, but it's not a game ban or something else server related. Losing the player character and needing to start from scratch would also be pretty rough, considering all the time invested, but if that's mentioned in the game rules that all players are supposed to read, not just skip, then it is what it is. Or maybe she will get a whole lot of loose exp/skill points when creating the new character, so that it will be a relatively strong character from the beginning, avoiding much of the grind to get anywhere.

 

[Bibliothecarius]

Thanks for the chapter!!!

 

[Saya2879]

I wonder if the erasure will be mentioned later.

 

[FlaminSarge]

What chapter did the Wanted player subplot start? And what other chapters referenced it? Been a while since I read this, can't remember much.
Edit: found it. 81, 84, 98

She was one of the fugitives from the Fairy War, her and her friends did war crimes and then went into hiding, so wanted posters went up in every kingdom, the others have already been caught and either did their time, or were banned. If you don't remember their crime, they did a monster train, leading a ton of monsters towards the whole allied army.

I get that but the player reaction is what was exaggerated(?).
Yeah I got getted but it is not like it matters.
