This is all very good, but banning MostBlunted isn't making the devs answer our 1827368392 threads about NPCs being boring and dull, and the world being as alive as a lettuce. At least Most Blunted filled the forums with very spiteful comments and made the forums a fun place to be! Terco Viejo isn't coming around a lot anymore lately with his very funny images, now we must rely on what? Lucius can't make enough glorifying Bannerlord threads for us to argue inGauging the community's feelings, yup. With a poll. Y'know, I like statistics. Not just quirky and interesting facts or oddball applications of stats like sabermetrics (pardon the pun), but the mathematical theory of it, methodology, and interpretation of data. One of the things you learn about early on when studying statistical methods is sampling bias. There's a quote I always get a chuckle out of regarding sampling bias, and it goes something like "survey responses are all biased because they only come from people willing to complete surveys." It's said like a joke, but it's not wrong, either, especially when it comes to controversial or emotionally-charged issues. People who feel strongly about something are usually more willing to put themselves out there, while those who aren't as invested are less likely to participate in the survey. I think you get where I'm going with this, so we're not gonna beat that dead horse anymore.
Let's move on to the interpretation part of statistics. Identifying and measuring trends in data is the core of applying statistics, because that is how you generate knowledge which can inform future decisions. If you can't do that with statistics, then you're not really accomplishing anything with your data. As an exercise, I'm going to show you the data I have and you can tell me if there are any identifiable trends in it. Here you go:
We're all on the same page now, with the pertinent information right in front of us. We're just here to gauge the community's feelings and not to try steering moderation policy through populism, right? So, I'm curious how the community feels about the information I have provided, and if they think that perhaps we were too lenient in this case.
The only good take in the whole thread.
Most Blunted, was exactly like what was in his name, blunt and actively breaking forum rules.
If keeping the forum alive meant to consistently troll and flame, then I'd rather have a dead forum. Pretty sure I warned him a few times back when I was mod

i got the impression he had real love for the franchise. a hardcore fan
Must have missed him, but he's got warnings from more than a few mods in there. He even managed to get one from Reus.
I thought the thread was made after MostBlunted had been banned the first time. Again?
Yep, this is round two.
Now that's saying something.
I'm just curious, how did I get the "LeastBlunted" tag?
Not against it or anything, it's a fitting thing, hehe.

Well then I suppose it's a good thing that that's not the goal of banning someone from the forum now isn't it.
There is nothing I know of or can imagine that can accomplish what you are talking about, short of hopping on a time machine and bringing back the Armagan who used to be super excited about the early version of the first Mount and Blade and share things with people in the old forum. If you could bring that guy maybe he'd have a chat with the new one and then, who knows.
The game is what it is. Accept it, grieve, move on, don't give your money to this company in the future. That's all you can do as a customer.
most recruits need blunted swords as well
The man with the most blunted sword is the most dangerous one.

If he did enough to get banned
he should stay banned
