EVALUATE MY BATTLING!

TRAINER TIPS:
→ This is encouraged, not mandatory. We will not penalize you for not using it.
→ Feel free to link your personal HMDs if you would like, just in case someone doesn't want to use the mass HMD post.
→ this is more for actual critique and discussion. Please don't just blindly praise a person or just call them horrible. If someone's doing a wonderful job, you can tell them, just tell them why, or even where they're showing off bonus perks. If someone's doing a not-so-wonderful job, tell them why, give them things to improve on if you can. Examples, links, things that can give them something to work on. Meaning, no bashing, flaming, or nasty behavior. Please keep it civil.
→ Anonymous is turned on! But note: anonymous is a privilege, not a right. If it's being abused to bash players, please be sure to let one of us know and we'll step in or freeze threads if necessary. If anonymous is abused too much, it will be turned off for the next HMD.
→ Don't take this all too personally! Remember that roleplay is a game, and crit is supposed to help, not make you feel horrible. No one is perfect, we've all got room to improve. Please keep that in mind.

ah, well. yeah, i know there were things that were comparable done in game before, sure. but i thought you literally meant there was something publicly broadcast that was comparable, which i would prolly remember if there had been which is why this stood out to me. i've never seen a post that had this many warnings and labels on it, which is a sign in itself. logs? yes. but never a open post that was open to everyone to watch and observe

tbh the fact that caster was apparently going to get away with it in the sense that he'd be set loose again and be able to pull it off multiple times is what really irked me about it. especially the detail of the player asking for the fact he was captured to not go public. that was just being way too unrealistic about the thing. there's no way anyone who was involved with that wouldn't be checking constantly to see if he has been caught... or even further that they wouldn't let everyone know he had been caught... especially considering the personalities of people like say... saber or shirou.

still, i'm glad you guys are taking a step back to adjust this. this could have blown up in a really bad way otherwise. like i said, this really just felt to me like the aftermath of this wasn't given enough consideration as much as the act of getting to do it was

actually, one more very important detail that i feel i want to mention

since there was going to be a police bulletin about this, doesn't it kind of make it hyper unrealistic that people wouldn't know about this and could ignore it? as i recall, police bulletins are forcibly broadcast on a character's gear, so that kind of makes it even more difficult to ignore the entire thing in a realistic way...

The police bulletin wouldn't have been too descriptive as to keep from inciting public panic. However, it doesn't matter anymore.
