This isn't about attacking you, it's about disproving your points since you seemed to have openly "challenged" everyone to do so. I wouldn't have even bothered with this thread if you weren't so egotistical about it.

Indeed it was.

Then stop making such broad statements and be more specific on what you claim will lessen corruptivity under.

One can argue this back and forth for hours. It's best if we don't.

I'm not supporting your system nor the current system, because there is no current system that every server uses. Each server has its own ways of controlling things.

No, just an example.

Nice to know that you believe business managers shouldn't enforce any rules. Very interesting, indeed.

Server managers still have to deal with the players when problems arise in which only they will be able to handle the situation.

Here we go again with your ego. This isn't about setting anyone up with the "pwn" or whatever you want to call it. As egotistical as your post was, you made an open challenge, and I've taken the liberty of accepting it by disproving your system from being as perfect as you claim it to be.

Once again, that doesn't make it right.

No, they are not the only way, they are just a very efficient way of doing so.

That's because you can't come up with a way to remove developer corruption. All you ultimately need is rights to one wNPC and you have quite a lot of power if you have the proper scripting abilities.

And that still doesn't make it right.

Not even close. You can't compare the amount of people that vote during elections "in real life" to the players that vote for elections on a server on Graal. What I mean by this is that "in real life", you most likely don't know over 60% of the voters, whereas with Graal voting on servers, since the playercount on each server is so low, you would most likely know over 60% of the voters, thus turning it to a huge popularity contest.

You can't compare politics to voting on a Graal server.
