I treat players with the same respect they show me. If someone acts like a child I tend to treat them as such. There isn't a single player here who I gave an attitude or became short with for no reason. Everyone had a fresh slate with me when I met them, some players just chose to get off on the wrong foot. Take your own advice, treat everyone equally or deal with the outcome.
About the sheep "bug"
It was more of a economy imbalance then a bug. It wasn't like there was rules being broken or anything. He, and a few other players, just took it far beyond what we thought players would. Thus it was changed so it did not have a huge impact on the shards economy. Not sticking up for this in the least, when a player finds something that seems like too much income vs time they should make sure the staff are aware but we can't expect players to triple check our work and balances.
And smoke, must you disagree with everything everyone, that isn't a friend, says? Why would Taran lie when he didn't even need to address this...
Also about me hosting and such, I do not award players with events when they can't be patient or grateful. Regardless of how you look at it, any staff hosting is putting their time aside so players can have fun. So when myself or any other staff doesn't host because of childish behavior or attempts to ruin the fun of others, don't act like it shouldn't be that way. I don't know how things were handled on previous shards you played but I do not reward rudeness, rule breaking, or being a smart ass. The only complaint that can possibly be made about me hosting is how I sometimes try to reorganize teams to make them more even.
