LFM follies

[DelScorcho]

Did anyone else see the Looking For More requests this morning? About 15 that indicated "Tibet is part of China". It lasted for about 15 minutes before the GM's dropped the hammer. Hillarious other groups were posted, and the whole thing lasted about 10 or 15 minutes before the GMs resumed control.

It was started because someone titled their LFM with 'Free Tibet'. It's a bad idea when someone start trolling with polical messages in a game.

Agree. It started with some that LFM post obviously meant to get a rise out of others.
Everyone knows Sarlona now has quite the Chinese population, the initial LFM about "Free Tibet" was completely unnecessary and obviously meant to get a rise out of them. It worked. Congrats whoever you are. You must be real proud of yourself.

I go out of my way to avoid trolling or to stay within the rules. But I'll say this, while it obviously wasn't me who made that lfm, actually I'd have been very proud of myself had it been.

its completely inappropriate, it has nothing to do with the game and can only promote more trolling and arguments. keep your politics to yourself in game.

Well, technically, aren't LFMs supposed to be used only for group-forming porpoises? So even the "trade" LFMs are a no-no.

Indeed, and they have been for quite some time now. That was only the official notice even - it was inappropriate long before that was posted.
