servere alignment shifts for obvious evil actions such as murder and assualt

it is an act of evil to murder or kill or attack someone over a perceived slight in-game such as two characters arguing and one demanding the other must make amends or be instantly killed when one player is non-combative.

an argument is not justification for murdering/attacking someone as a good-aligned pc. Tabletop rp convention would have the DM adjusting alignment.

It is too easy for good players to justify murder hobo mentality with zero consequences. Why even play evil characters at all? I didn't know this was a thing on this server it's when I encounter this I leave a server. If the alignment and actions or even guilt doesn't matter what's the point of playing the game?

This kind of act is outlined as evil in multiple sourcebooks as well as criminal law in real life, and foundational ethics of multiple cultures.

If the alignment does not matter why do we have it?

DMs do this when it's justified.

If someone's breaking rules, report them.

If you're sure a character is good-aligned and is deliberately murdering individuals for baseless reasons, take screenshots or video evidence to submit to the DM team via a private message on the forums.

My point the reasons for justification are vague. I'm being rude to and you respond in kind therefor I kill you is still assault and or murder attempted murder. An unmitigated evil action.

Then report it and move on if you feel like a good-restricted class is behaving in an evil manner, the DM's have all the details necessary to make a judgement about whether that paladin is being an utter psycho or not.

In the Forgotten Realms, good-aligned people kill good-aligned people for a whole host of reasons. It's not always murder! The DM team is available to review when needed.
