Not all of us are rich, I only had around 10 mil in the bank before this. So yeah, it is kind of a big deal to me. This is the 6th proven case for tampering, so "lightest punishment" is based off of like 5 other cases? It does seem like there's some resentment between you and I. I understand I'm not the most likable league figure, but why don't we put aside our previous schemas and think of this from a neutral POV. Of course, there will always be a certain bias, depending on how the defendant acts. We can at least try to minimize that. The language you use in your conversations with my GMs and I seems to point towards you having a predisposition towards me.
So you think the punishment is lighter, because I'm not in line to be a GM? Seems weird that Butters hadn't even taken a GM position, and neither had I. You don't know what I was planning to do. I think your reasoning is flawed, and I'm not here to just blatantly criticize HO. They do a lot of good stuff but some of the reasoning that you used was poor. I do think the tampering rules themselves need to be changed also. I'm perfectly willing to stop talking about this if you want me to. And yeah I was definitely in the wrong with that dumb comment. That was definitely "tampering" according to your rules and I take blame for that.
So to recap this response
dismissal as oversimplification
attempt at creating a bias to explain result
usage of private conversation with only the gms
usage of quotes aorund the word tampering as if it indicate its not real even while admitting it was
To go back to the beginning. The rule was broken blatantly, simply, and in public. The punishment was levied. This should be the easiest thing in the world.
If people dislike the rule, tell your GMs to support Arizona's proposal to alter it. A rule I personally support by the way. I'll be very personally happy that one of the last things I do as a member of HO is to vote for that rule change. Every one of you has access to rules voters. Use it. As is, numerous attempts to change the rule have been made and failed since the previous situation and its absolutely ridiculous to expect that your HO is going to just not enforce rules that the voting powers of the league (ie GMs/HOs) have repeatedly kept in place by not replacing them before now.
