Ragnarok 2008-03-17 |  | STC vote link disabled 4 good? |  | Sure looks like it. I guess stc link abuse is gone for good eh? =P |
|
Ragnarok 99+ day(s) ago | Yea, one time a friend of mine asked one of the admins a question about what is cheating (some market transfer question), and the admin immediately assumed it was an admission of guilt. After some protest the suspension was lifted, but still this isn`t the first time an admin acted too quickly. =/ |
Ishamael 99+ day(s) ago | yeah. slightly less planets than us. meaning any fed with (1 or more) less planets than our count were at risk. and i didn`t say it was a past staff member, rather a friend of the staff, and AGAIN- i won`t give out names, sorry. your input was irrelevant, but thanks. |
Travvivian 99+ day(s) ago | I`ve never really heard of the loophole. Although now that I think of it, it does much to clarify several incidents.
Anyway, I will say this. There are SOME times in which Admin have been at least slightly too quick to act. I`ve had incidents in which I`ve been accused, and punished, without any explanation. Nor any opportunity to defend myself before punishment was meted out. For example, the whole "multi-account" deal. I had a friend who also played, and made the mistake of checking his account at my house. Shortly after, we both found ourselves barred from accessing our accounts. Needless to say, once I started asking- And answering questions from another server about the incident, things were quickly cleared up.
It makes for a rather good point, though. Not everyone is as guilty as some would like to immediately believe. =P |
bipbippy 99+ day(s) ago | Hey don`t bring me into this... I didn`t know about this particular loophole |
Athena 99+ day(s) ago | Slightly less, weird Demandred entered TBK`s fed with 10 planets, the fed planet count was around 40 and he had something like 800 votes.
Sure slightly less is I guess defined by around 760 planets more than the total overall voting capacity of that fed. I can totally see how that error was made, what is your problem Pandy.
Curious who the past staff member was, was it bip ? |
StormofBladeZ 99+ day(s) ago | Yup the STC votes gone i guess. * back on topic*
btw. the main people to blame are the ones who took the action of enacting something. aka Stephen. |
DrunkenMasters 99+ day(s) ago | And seriously talking, the only people trying to save stephen`s business at this very moment are:
moops
anfit
that`s it, and hell, it`s annoying to see someone as careless as stephen. I have never wrote that but he threatened me to delete all my accounts because I`ve sexually harassed sk8land!?! Have I? No. I answered his mail writing I haven`t done that, no answer. So if sk8 sends him mail that I have done that again, he will delete all my accounts. Rather amusing, isn`t it. The same guy that wrote that stephen died... I am leaving this game soon for good anyway. |
bipbippy 99+ day(s) ago | ok I don`t even know Ishamael really (although today I joined the same fed he`s in)... but I find this whole Bash Ishamael for ruining feds thing kind of annoying. Instead of blaming him for apparently finding a loophole (which others knew about anyway), why don`t we blame Stephen for not fixing the problem once he knew about it. I mean, it`s not the first time a loophole was discovered. For example, Stephen took out the 4 second DP after building a ship, because I `abused` it during a UW attempt. Then he took out UW counter attacks, because I `abused` those too. See a pattern here? Stephen fixed those. You all are just sore at Ish now because Stephen doesn`t care about us enough anymore to fix that particular problem. So how about you go be sore at Stephen and leave Ish alone...
And I for one don`t find that the GC community is any worse for wear due to not being able to anabolik feds. Sure it was fun, but what did it really do other than annoy some newbies for the most part... |
Ishamael 99+ day(s) ago | it was long known before `me and demandred ruined` your little community. it wasn`t my idea to begin with, and frankly i was told the idea by a long time friend of all the staff- won`t give out names. in fact i was under the impression that it was perfectly legitimate. it`s not like it affected game play in the least, other than being able to destroy feds with slightly less planets than us haha.. i wasn`t trying to make this a flame war, but since the gm`s have clearly not lost their hold on the reigns, deeply sorry to offend.
i don`t understand where i went south with pandy, or maraudian. actually- pandy became unrightfully enraged after i had a LAN party at Asmodean`s house with demandred and modistmouse, and we were down a computer. leading to the ban of all our hard work into our accounts. but whatever. and maraudian..? he just snapped because i avoided the filter i think. DEEPLY sorry to both of you.
but i`ll take no credit for being the `scum that has made the gc community worse lately` -DM pointed out a better philosophy than both of your rambling`s in one word. Quit blaming the honest, disgruntled players and look up from your knotted shoes. |
DrunkenMasters 99+ day(s) ago | sorry for the double post |
DrunkenMasters 99+ day(s) ago | Lol and how exactly is ishamael`s fault that that GC is going worse? A player that logs in once per 20 days lmao. The only ones to blame are the people with power:
1)Stephen
2)paid staff(does these even know GC exist???)
3)non-paid admins(with quite limited powers anyway, can`t make miracles with the careless owner) |

Maraudian 99+ day(s) ago | Ishamael , im not even going to pretend to be nice about this , as pandy said its scum like you that gc has gotten worse recently , so dont even think about coming on the help center and breaking the chat rules because i got zero tolerence for you , i simply wish i was admin back in those times , im happy to say you wouldnt be welcome to gamestotal at the least |
EvilPandy 99+ day(s) ago | well ishamael since you and demandred are the sole reason that the fed voting is removed i think you`ve a lot to answer for, to the destruction of the community players.
EDIT: No biting.

UberPansy 99+ day(s) ago | *grabs Ishmael by the coat and shoves him against a wall
You bored now huh punk? Huh? huh? what...? my shoe is untied.........??? oh. |
Ishamael 99+ day(s) ago | not that the voting link has brought a whole lot of new blood anyways eh pandy? basically what im trying to say is that this game reeks of stagnance and a generally boring community. shalaylee.

UberPansy 99+ day(s) ago | Mmmm I hear that Donster... |
TheHominion 99+ day(s) ago | FYI, Ive still been going and voting for it daily :) Im rather new and I hope I can see some of the older players here stick around.. |
Donster 99+ day(s) ago | yea, well the old fashion way is 3:00am for me... |
Ragnarok 99+ day(s) ago | I doubt a lot of the new players are even aware of it. Maybe you should put up an announcement asking players to vote on this site or that site for GC. Worth a shot I think. |
