Admonishments
Just a thought here. Like the law system in most countries after while you can try and a get a pardon for anything you did. Could we do the same in Illarion? Say six months (active or semi-active), and a PM saying why you think it should be removed. Just my thoughts here for the players that play a long time.

I second this idea, As someone currently paying for a Ban bacause of previous admonishments:
One for abusing building shadows - Happened months ago.
One for multiple PK it seems - Happened while I was trying to play an evil character, months ago.
The last one for attacking a newbie - Happened 2 weeks ago.
The last "Ban" was affected by those first two admonishments which happened months ago. I have been playing for years, and plan to enjoy many more. I shouldn't have to keep paying for mistakes with longer bans or even a perma-ban!
There's got to be a way to wipe these from the record somehow. Can't I just do some "Service" to the game instead? Pay a fine? Something to make up for past crimes? Something "constructive" rather than destructive?
I'm sure I'm not the only player who's made mistakes here.

But oh well . My fault for listening.
You guys all pinned that on me, I have an adminishment saying I TAUGHT everyone how to do it.

You guys really shouldn't worry too much, I merely wanted to provide some more information, no panic. As I said, the permaban is really barely enforced because someone has many admonishments (I know an account with 9).
I don't think the system will be changed after it seemed to work for years now *dashes into the bunker* BUT you can keep coming up with good ideas. Maybe there will be something picked up by the staff, no promises though.

You can be sure that we'll never suspend an account of somebody we consider a valuable part of the community.

Those who commit serveral serious rule violation, show absolutely no insight and learn nothing from offered help or reject any constructive feedback on their flaws may get their account suspended. Those who do not understand why they got banned for good are usually those who did not understand any well-intentioned hint and do not understand what Illarion is all about. If there is any concrete problem with a ban, please contact gm_complaint. Bans aren't discussed in public.
The number of perma bans of the last few months can be counted with the fingers of your hands, btw.

The more immature people come in, the more bans will (and have to) come into effect. It's a simple calculation.
If the number of bans increase, it doesn't necessarily mean that the staff is becoming ban-happier. It can also mean that more players came in, or specifically that more immature people came in :p

As we noticed you players feel slightly uncomfortable with the admonishments you got stored in your account. And since we want to make you feel good playing Illarion we came to the point that you need a possibility to remove the admonishments and clear your dark past. But we expect a return for the work and the favor to forget the misstakes you did. So you have to do something to help Illarion, to support us directly so we forget your past mistakes.
So you offer everyone to get rid of one admonishment in his account by writing and submitting 3 proper NPCs written with the simple NPC language. What is "proper" is the desicion of a GM or a developer. Who ever does not feel like writing a NPC or who thinks that he is not able to write NPCs with that simple language has to suffer his admonishments.

~Uses the time during his ban to script 9 characters~

*admonishes the staff for public display of desparation*
But hey, the community will be pretty happy when we have all those new NPCs don't you think ?
