Studman was never actually banned. Substantial anti-griefing code was put in place because of him though..

be carm ,
the sock pooper is only a threat to players who dont know about him.
if you see him in the lobby give a heads up to any newer players(like the ham gang) and he will soon get bored and go away again.

the more we all start ranting and raving about him the more he likes it and the longer he will stay

LOL the anti griefing code has killed more newbs then shark ever will.

Shark's garage is pretty loaded....if he has an active alt all this time I'd say it finally worthy of ban.  Also suspicious he shows up just as BL goes full open pvp, just in time to ruin it for everyone again...

Shark isn't a fantastic PVP player you know. And if he's limited to the 'studman' account then he really isn't a huge threat.

The fights I've seen him win, he only won by fighting dirty (with squad challenges where he takes about 50% more CR than agreed).

The 'studman' gangers are fairly low skill gangers. Of course, he doesn't care if they die so that's where he's most dangerous. Pretty much any player that has played a bit in the SCL should be able to handle him fairly well.

At least, that's from what I've seen of him.

Self policing community.

You're giving him more notoriety than he deserves.

Is that really it? With 100 or so people with PvP flag enabled, you guys really can't find anybody to fight?

For the record, I'm sure shark/studman would be just fine with attacking in PvP somebody that is totally unprepared, so even if he is a sucky PvPer, he's the kind of guy that's going to want to force everybody to do it, so he can take advantage of them. He wouldn't want a fair fight.

He's a loozer. Quit talking about him. He's a coward too. :stare:

Self-policing didn't work with shark/stud, thats why the code was added and the PvP flag right???? SO why will self-policing work now?

Joel, are you blaming triad for PvP being screwed up or shark? Not sure to whom your pronoun is referrring.

And what's to stop anyone from griefing? Isn't it clear that Sam is more than willing to tolerate it regardless of what the community desires? Serioulsy, it was Sam that called that style of play griefing, and now we find that griefers won't be banned at all. Does this mean that we are now testing the anti-griefing code? Seems like with things wide open now we are back to the issue spanky spoke at length about: Is it not a valid option to play your gang as "evil"?

Shark declared "war" on everyone ...dishonorably using a loophole in Sam's "rules". Sam Honorably held to his rules, but put in the anti-shark code to stop his grief in town events (it worked, but a little too well in my opinion). Technically Sam couldn't "ban" him and I think that shows what a great person Sam is...cause I probably would have done and IPlookup/yellowpages on the credit card name and opened up a can of real world BAS RUTTEN on his ass if it was me.

Triad? who the fk cares?
