[Discuss] Dwilight, SMA and Powergaming

[German Kutran]

Hi, i am German Kutran, the player of Baldur Mekorig. And i am here to ask one thing to the GMs?
 
Why Baldur has been deported? 
 
Today, i acces my account and found this message:
 
Your character Baldur was deported by a GameMaster. The reason was: 
Your continued behaviour and OOC powergaming doesn't belong to an SMA island. 

I remarked the last part. 

 

You see, i dont consider myself a "powergamer". I have playeed in a unmber of RPGs, online or tabletop, for almost a decade. I have seen "powergamers", perople how will do anythign to get power, even in this game, but i dindt do anything to be considered one of them.

In that message i am accused of "continued behaviour and OOC powergaming". Continued behaviour? In Tara, in Ikalak, in Fontan, i did nothing more than roleplay. In fact, i did roleplay the desition of Baldur to come to Dwilight. I contribuite to the realm i was, always managing Baldur as a proper noble. I explored the west, and documeneted it IC. I will not deny that Baldur objective was to create a new realm, and for that i made several in character calling for nobles and commoners. In several ocasion i talked with my ruler IC and OOC about the project, with little answer. And when i am my partners finally began our project, things appear in our way. We can not fall back, soo we have to improvise, adapt to our situation. And that is "powergaming"?

I have seen a lot of situation that were powergaming, denounced to the GMs, that dindt do anything, and this is considered powergaming?

I have been playing this game for some time, i have bring players, good players to it. The least i deserved in a message from a GM, a mere message asking me for my actions, but not a cold and automatic deportation with a single and emprty phrase for justification.
