Having run and administered Minecraft servers for a couple years, I've done fairly similar things. I think of it this way: Should the devs really be doing it? Probably not. Is it fun and enjoyable to do it? Of course.

On occasion on my server I'd spawn a shit ton of creepers in some friend's house or something, or just generally mess with people. As long as it doesn't go overboard, like say Banks or Hande playing as any of the bosses or one of the higher level bots, it isn't a huge deal. You just have to consider where is the line between professionalism and personal enjoyment is and find a balance.

I would laugh my ass off if I looted a coif or huricane bow from a dev lol. It would be the best sig ever Big Grin

I'm always looking forward on getting some picture like that too, even if it's just a Sturdy Wood or something. But so far not even a bad mats didn't drop from the kills. I heard they should still drop stuff but haven't loot or seen anyone else drop stuff from DevNords.


------------
And to add on topic= I do also enjoy devs playing as nords. It's fun and adds something different to a game that doesn't happen every day Tongue

Not when you're kiting alone and they mess up your hour or two of work.

work ?
I think there are some people who take NI too seriously...

Yea? I get pretty fucked off when some idiot ruins the 3 hours that myself and the team put into a rag run. Time doesn't grow on tree's.

definitely people take NI too seriously. Play for fun not the mere sense of achievement. If you want to feel like you have achieved something write a book, get a promotion if you work or get a job, plant a garden or something like that. Don't rely on a game for some sort of sense of achievement. They should only be used to kill time and talk to people. Don't think it really matters or anything. Just shrug it off and go oh well. Devs create this mod without really getting paid. In fact if you take into account that they are hosting the servers (I think) they are paying for this as well. So by all rights they should blow off steam. Some shoot players. Others like one I had yesterday, not mentioning there name in case they get in trouble, committed suicide and re-spawned using dev tools with a tome so we could complete our run.

No one cares if devs play as nords so long as they don't ruin a 3 hour run (which they haven't afaik) but as assassine has said, Hande has ruined a few of his kiting trips while he's on the last waves which is yes, work. That is when it isn't acceptable, it's just like players glitching, the developers hate it when people ruin their work by glitching the mod and wreaking havoc, same deal for them, spawning as nords and ruining our work of getting to higher levels.

Anyway just to get your mind off the negative, as I already said, no one cares, they can do what they want.
