The samurai were generally told of their offense in full and given a set time to commit seppuku, usually before sunset on a given day. If the sentenced was uncooperative, it was not unheard of for them to be restrained, or for the actual execution to be carried out by decapitation while retaining only the trappings of seppuku; even the short sword laid out in front of the victim could be replaced with a fan. Unlike voluntary seppuku, seppuku carried out as capital punishment did not necessarily absolve the victim's family of the crime. Depending on the severity of the crime, half or all of the deceased's property could be confiscated, and the family stripped of rank.

Don't hold your breath. Ever since late tier 5 (when the "MIB" moderators were brought in) they have been losing communication with customers via the official forums.

Sad to see it come down to this. I've always been a fan of the Flames community even when I was calling some of them names. I hope it'll continue to provide the EQ2 community valuable feedback. Good luck to you LFG in the umm...new site direction?

Points to Niber for rationality.

YES!!!! grimwell u have questioned LFG's character ur really fucked. we all kno its the only way to pis him off cept postin those hard N words or racial stuff.

I find it pathetic that sites like "Ten Ton Hammer" who service a meaningless niche in the EQ2 Community (posting out dated info that noone cares about) get more handouts than the single largest feedback system this game has ever seen

Sites like TTH were created to make money, sites like EQ2Flames were created to fill a gap in the community that people needed filled. Hence its unprecedented popularity.

SOE should be able to prioritize accordingly.

Anyone have smed's email and want to organize something like this? All of the patronage of this site could add up to a LOT of emails, and it might do something in terms of getting rid of these community team clowns as long as it is polite.

This is kind of off topic Snark and should probably be kept about LFG. While I would normally be more than happy to not only correct your flawed logic but explain the difference between a news network and a forum I think there are more important issues at hand.
