Oh jeeze, seriously guys. We aren't admins. Let's just ignore it. We don't have the authority to make these decisions or to tell people whether they can buy an account lock or not. We also aren't lawyers or cops so throwing around 'You are committing fraud/credit fraud!' is pretty ineffective.
However: You proceeded to call the server owner a coward and insulted the server altogether.
Plus, retracting the donation you made to the server would count as Credit Fraud, and would also get your son banned.
Markillion is not going to "discuss the ban" with you, because that information is kept with the Wardens, not the Players.
Dude. Shouldn't Markillion decide if he is going to discuss the ban with them? I mean, he has the autonomy to do that if he feels it is necessary.
We aren't his bodyguards, why should we decide who he can talk to...?
Oh, and just as a head's up, 'Credit Fraud' is actually pretty much identity theft (registering for credit cards under somebody else's identity, using their Social Insurance Number, etc.) so you just accused them of something that is way more serious than anything they have likely done. So. You might want to apologize for that.
Not looking for special treatment just a reasonable approach here.
Unless you can confirm the rules you feel he has broken then there is no clear rationale for his ban
I am not going to invest too much time in this -
so regarding the donation - the unban you have suggested is clearly a purchase (given it states purchase) - and by banning a person without a clear reason you have broken the original agreement.
I therefore intend to report this system to the Visa Credit card Company for credit abuse and failure to deliver. they have their own investigative procedure which will follow.
Having scrolled back through the posts - someone is clearly profiteering from banning and then charging kids to unban themselves.
As I said I am happy to discuss this outside of an open forum through private messaging, but clearly you prefer to hide behind a server.
You do realize the person you are messaging doesn't have any involvement in the running of the server, right?
And since you seemed confused on what 'advertising' was, that is putting in a website link or an IP address anywhere in chat.
So, as I was saying before I got perm muted. For the past 4 months I've been working on a mission. My mission was to place as many guard kits around the map as I can, to either screw up the economy or create a rollback of map reset. I was smart enough to do it within different accounts/ips etc. The guard kits are placed in random bases, places, mines, oceans around the map.
You have been working four months to screw up an online game?
Wow. Wow. Impressive, but probably not in the way you intended it to be.
One thing I would change on Killion is that Iwould like to see the Frees/Citizens have a reason to interact with C blockers again. Back in the old days of the pumpkin economy Free/Citizens would work together with C blockers. We competed for the C blockers that cut down wood and sold them in the BM. We would give them gifts, enchanted axes, a few hundred if they needed it to rank up, trying to stop them from going to competitor stores. I had a healthy relationship with a lot of C blockers, and C blockers that participated in chat ranked up quicker than those who didn't and worked mindlessly in the mines. In addition, in those days the BM was ALWAYS full and competition to get new stalls was pretty fierce.
I am not sure how this C block-Free relationship could be instigated again. Maybe by putting apples in the tree farm (or maybe make it so they only drop in the tree farm) and boosting opples? Not positive, but I would like to see that partnership again.
One thing I wouldn't change is the KCO system because #yolo I don't actually think it is annoying. But for real, it isn't that bad. I like that one can still get KCO items without spending their own money.
Also I would totally change that non-donors can't use ender chests. just saying.
These created needed keys, and had a set percentage of chances to draw various items making the "stamped" items very difficult to acquire. I saw people with these items absolutely ruling the servers, killing alot of players with items which ruined the pvp system. The bottom line is, I played this server, it was amusing, but I feel that the server requires you to "pay" to basically succeed.
Weird, I haven't paid Killion a dime and I have three of those 'stamped' items and other KCO items.
Last by certainly not least, no Euphoria or prestige, I would LOVE to see this because it forces frees to go out and make something of themselves in free instead of grinding endlessly in a town.
What what what.
You were not even around before Prestige/Euphoria. Euphoria and Prestige were benefits--before everybody was quittnig because they were bored. People had nothing to spend money on and they had nothing to do. And you could not make much cool artwork or buildings because they would be griefed. Prestige gave people something to accomplish, and Euphoria made it so you could build in peace. It solved a huge problem.
Taking away Euphoria and the prestige system is like going back a year. If you are going to suggest to take it away you might as well come up with a solution for the problem of no money sinks and no building locations.
It doesn't really matter who quits, guys. It may seem like the end of the world now, and it has every other time a large amount of Frees have quit, but after a while the new Frees start to replace them. Sad, but true.
With every (known?) Blaze spawner broken, Blaze rods are riduclously expensive and hard to come by--and they aren't looking like they will get any cheaper. I propose that Blaze spawners be placed in the End on weekdays/make them only spawn on weekdays in the End. The Wither is the best attraction to the End, but if I recall it only drops skulls on the weekend. Allowing members to profit off of CTP on weekdays would allow blaze rods to become attainable for people who can't afford 10k+ for one, without giving a huge monopoly for anybody with pstones. This would also give CTP a point on weekdays, and allow for all fighters in CTP to profit.

No, man, didn't you know you can say whatever you want without consequence as long as you say 'loljk' after?
/sarcasm.

So are we not allowed to own chain mail anymore? Should any chain mail items found by mob grinding be disposed of?
