Uhhh… guys. This is about the sweetest post of the month, and I really appreciate the kind words. But I think there’s a “no dev call-out” rule, so I’ll just do a quite response and lock this so no one worries about it running off the rails.

The question about repeating information or advice is easily answered, I think, because if I do need to repeat myself a lot, I know that for the person to whom I’m responding, that is the first time he or she has asked the question. So that person deserves my respect and my courtesy. (Even if I’ve said it a gazillion times before.) It’s part the words I live by: “On the other side of the monitor is another human being.”

But if you’re messing with the game, if you’re antagonizing the community, if you’re making other players uncomfortable with your words or your offensive behavior, if you’re scamming/cheating/exploiting, and if you play the " I have no idea why I was blocked" or the “Customer Support messed up” game, I’m sort of obliged to set the record straight. In a ladylike manner, of course. lol
