Easy enough at the level you are (size wise and alliance wise.) For most of the rest of "us" not so much. |

And this is why you never made it into a Scooby Doo episode.

You don't have to use *my* term. I've been using it long enough that I'm kind of amused that just now people are picking up on the term but eh.
and yes to those that meddle in affairs that do not concern them usually get the title of a GP because they think they are upholding their standards of law and order *police geddit?*

Global Police? What in Illy is that? Beyond a few scant rules (http://forum.illyriad.co.uk/code-of-conduct-rules-updated-102911_topic31.html) and a very occasional minor moderation of chat and the forums by the MODS, there are no rules in Illy. The notion of Global Police is absurd. There are players who state their opinions, and players are certainly free to act and react to the words and actions of other players, but rules? Absurd. |
Subatoi's refererence was not specifically to the written rule nor letter of law rather the wielding (meddling?) of power by those whom politicking is of interest. It of course exists. Ironically by definition those that engage in this behavior though indirectly curbing sand-boxing, are indirectly pursuing their own right to sandbox.

Ahh... So the Global Police are defined? I would love to know that list, please...

The first rule of GP's is, you don't talk about GP's ;)
Really, I think the definition of Global Police as relates to the game seems to be fairly malleable; mostly it just seems to be those who are considered to be meddling (cue Scooby Doo). And I'm not sure I've seen anyone else use the term besides EF/Subatoi. |
You put to words the thoughts in my head. lol
