COURT IS HEREBY INFORMED that as of 01:40 EST on this day, the twenty-second of August, in this the 2016'th year of the Lord, forumer
@Tolvan was found
GUILTY, by a majority vote of the forum's Jury, of the murder of RP campaigns Golden Lore, Judgement Day, and Enmity: Vow of Vengeance*, and of aggravated assault upon the Fantasy Nations RP.
Taking into consideration the underlying circumstances behind the events examined, the sworn testimony of the witnesses summoned and their readiness to acquiesce to and comply with the suggested oath, the reservations of individual Jurors, and the attitude of the Accused with regard to the gravity and audacity of his (then) alleged crimes, it seems to me that, in the oft-exclusive interests of pursuing both full
and proper justice for these transgressions, considerations of both vengeance and mercy on my own part must be wholly abandoned. RP Campaignicide is not historically recognized as a bannable offence; and even in this particular case, as pertaining to a particular individual, having been found guilty of numerous consecutive such infractions and a clear tendency for destructive and degenerative actions with regard to that section of our respected social order, I do not find that the severity and extend of the damage that he has wrought, nor the level of evident malice driving his actions in doing so, have necessarily approached such levels as to warrant the establishment of such a precedent.
With that being said, however, it falls to the Court to ensure that fitting and effective action is taken in response to this kind of damaging behavior, and deterrence of future incidence is only a secondary consideration to the reliable prevention of repeat offences. Given that the bulk of evidence regarding the consistency of his MO, together with the clear lack of remorse or concern on the part of the Accused when confronted and questioned about his actions, together, appear to be indicative of an underlying disorder in his moral character fundamental to his being, rather than any exceptional or coincidental alignment of circumstances behind each or any separate charge, I can see no reason to institute any fixed deadline on the sentence now to be imposed.
@Tolvan , for the safety and protection of any and all future RP campaigns in which you may find yourself inclined to participate, you are hereby
RELEGATED from regular member status on these boards, and will instead assume the rank of
Campaign Killer, until such time as, (if ever), it may become apparent that you have sufficiently repented for, and given up on, your campaign-killing ways. May this serve as full and proper warning to any GM's who, in the future, should ever find themselves considering the viability of your participation, for the sake of their own future plans and visions, and the safety and peace of mind of all other active or potential players. Be it on their heads, if they should fail to react accordingly.
*(Not exactly a dead campaign.)**
**(Arguably now post-death and resurrection, however.)
This CONCLUDES the case of Tolvan v. RP Boards. Court is now adjourned, pending any future cases to be held.
Accusations may be submitted privately, through correspondence with the Justice, or publicly, in this thread.
(Given that the Court is a public institution, and does not operate in a secretive or exclusive manner, accusations may NOT be submitted anonymously.)
COURT IS ADJOURNED.
