Dear player of Caeranor Saegarus,

You have been twice deported from EC, please leave this realm.

I'm as anti-Saxon as the next person, probably far more so, but I feel this Magistrate complaint goes too far.
I would agree.
In fact, I'm inclined to think Alexandros violated the SC right there. That's certainly not playing as with friends, seems like a public accusation of cheating, is an explicit pledge to take OOC matters IC, and is obviously exclusive.
I'd like to hear counterarguments, but the above message is just not acceptable.
Though I hasten to add, of course: that message is not acceptable to me, but the Magistrates would have to determine a precedent on if we would require a separate complaint to address it or not; and also though that message doesn't seem acceptable in any context, the question of whether Joseph Lant's actions are acceptable is, as noted, a separate one.
