Crystal Drop in Temple (if I can pull it off...)
« on: August 24, 2004, 12:10:56 pm »
As some of you know, a few of the GMs have been kicking me on sight (Cad and Moogie), and Psybur\'s account had it\'s password changed, so he\'s been effectively banned.  I recently heard that more than likely the same thing will be happening to me as well.

Now, I\'ve had my account wiped of crystals once before, so this time I\'m going to try to give away the crystals before they get trapped in my account.

So, after I\'ve given crystals to friends, associates, and those who attempted to defend my actions, I will drop the remainder in the temple, once a reasonable amount of people have signed one (30\'s a nice number).
There's a fine line between genius and insanity.

Fortunately, I have good balance.

Hmm, I am, as always, against the actions of Cad and Moogie.

I am also against Zet being banned due to the fact that people had the chance to stop him but rejected it.

Yes people play planeshift still, and some people made mods to make it more fun, but then people who havn\'t got the mods complain, so people get banned, and then the game sux, people leave, next release finally comes, we have all sorts of crappy banning systems like having to have credit cards to sign up, and yay, we have a everquest clone :D

Anyway... Lets start up the \'unban Zet\' movement!!!

We will require everyone to have a webcam so that we can monitor who is actually playing. Then we\'ll make an AI system that can see from the persons face if he/she is cheating or not.

Quite long ago I played Planeshift... Just like there were some news updates :rolleyes:

But on topic, I suppose it couldn\'t hurt to have some more crystals... Or does it? :D

If you don\'t want my crystals don\'t pick them up; it\'s a rather simple thing to do.

Also, thanks Cadoras (you are Cadoras, right?) and Xordan.

That\'s a nice thing of you to do, Zetsumei. Don\'t be doing it under one of your many Moogie-insulting alts, and everything will go fine. :)

Heh, sorry about that.  It\'s just that you were the proverbial straw that broke the camel\'s back.  Cad had been kicking me, and then you, and I got pissed.  I do apologize about though.  Though, I still think hevrah\'s pretty cool.

And don\'t worry, I won\'t use any of the moogie-insulting alts I made.

Heh, just noticed your sig. ^^\'

Fun for themselves, at the expense of the fun of everybody else, yes.

And rightly so, since everybody agreed to the unmodded and official rules and workings of the game, whereas modders chang these one-sidedly (i.e. without everybody else agreeing). Therefore, ppl. have every right to complain, because they don\'t get what they were promised anymore. Don\'t even try to put the blame on the ppl. complaining, as it solely rests on the modders.

I\'d hate credit card tracking, but obviously ppl., even in a small community like PS, can\'t be fair to each other. Therefore, they must be forced to be fair.

I don\'t know the facts and therefore will not take sides here. My general opinion is totally anti-cheat, though.

As for the crystals: my computers slowness and lagginess wouldn\'t permit collecting of > 1 crystal per minute (if it doesn\'t crash on the way to the temple, that is), so this question doesn\'t even exist for me. :D

WOW!!! Who would of ever thought that the GMS could actually kick someone for cheating? It was actually good of them to do that to show that they care about the community. So, if you don\'t wanna pay the time, don\'t do the crime. :rolleyes:

It has never been finalized that this will happen, and I highly doubt that the Devs will/or that the want to do it.It was just said as a possible approach if the cheating gets out of hand. So, shut up about it already!

Do you not think about the GMs who he, himself, said kept kicking him and he didn\'t like it? By, kicking him, they were giving an effort to make the community better. Do you also not remember the thread about Zet, and people getting banned, etc. etc? I admit that I went a bit overboard on my reply, but I still view it as the same way: All the cheaters should be given one warning, then the next step should be a ban. Simple as that. But, who cares what Faldrok thinks? :rolleyes:
