Ceb [68232] Committee Committee

Discord, Skype, possibly a carrier pigeon.

 

OP has a fair point. Slow justice is also an injustice. Best to perm ban them all if it takes this long to provide a picture of octuplets holding up usernames and id's all around one computer.

This is directed at ched.

You cant keep sweeping stuff under the carpet forever.

There is a lot of trash under there now.

You need to take some of it to the kerb and get rid of it.

Who are the little boys who caused the crash in the last few hours?

You can sweep stuff under the carpet all you like but eventually you do need to take some of it to be 'disposed' of.

Do you want your game to be full of cheaters or do you want real game players?

The real game players are going to leave if you keep sweeping stuff under the carpet.

We want it to be right. Even if that requires a bit of  short term pain. Get it done now.

You are crying about some cheaters being banned from the game?

Cheating is not good. It is very bad.

Anyone who cheats in this game has to be punished.

And any of your friends/brothers/sisters/hamster/gerbils/fieldmice/racingpigeons who 'restart' should be banned again when they are caught cheating.

In that case - yay for more population control! 

If some mentally degenerated shmuck wit h IQ 60 and/or autism or some similarly whatever mental issue/insecurity offs himself or herself, that is objectively good for mankind's gene pool. 

I am all for retards and degerates removing themselves from population, preferrably if they don't get in my way while doing so, I don't need your pitiful existence inconveniencing my day's progression. Thank you and bye in case we don't meet again! :)

I think hes trying to say is some of the 20 odd fedded might be  innocent and waiting days for there appeals to be sorted

I've heard the same complaint regarding how long it takes for staff to reply several times now (mmcp members aside). Is this really a thing, and if so, why? It seems like a long time to me, especially knowing a few were released from fed after appeal.

Does anyone remember the WSSB insider information scandal? I bought a BB of WSSB around that time, and it was a legitimate purchase and only one BB. Using the guilt-by-association measure, I could have been temporarily fedded just because I bought a BB of stock at the wrong time (I was not fedded). Anyone needing a refresher on the details read:

Compare this incident to the MMCP situation. What if you were targeted, flamed and otherwise harassed because you innocently bought a stock block in the middle of a scandal?

As for MMCP, some players broke the rules. Some most likely knew but did not interfere. And some players, especially newer ones or ones who don't participate in faction chat or activities, did not know and were in the wrong place at the wrong time.

We all owe those innocent players the benefit of the doubt. It could be any of us. Even senior players are sometimes temporarily fedded and released, or have assets stripped and then returned.

HavokGDI is noting that players from Myanmar not even associated with MMCP are being targeted, and players from other Southeast Asian countries as well. In real life, I had a friend from India targeted after the 9-11 bombing because some people thought he "looked like a Muslim".

Is this who we are?

We can be better than this.

Blunt [2076337]

It is. I was just recently, wrongly, fedded for multis. I filed a fed report.. 24 hours, no reply. I went to the "contact staff" page, and was basically told "file a fed report and wait".

Another 24 hours went by. Nothing. Eventually, I happened to check the contact staff page again, just as bogie was responding to Tarun, who had the same problem (we were hit by multihunter for trading with multis unknowingly). Granted, as soon as bogie knew the story, we were out within 20 minutes.. But had he not been in that chat, God only knows how long we would have sat there before our fed reports were looked at..

And we were completely innocent :/

Wssb cannot really be compared to this case though.. 

Wssb was a one of suspicion that something was leaked, due to which all investments with profits upwards of 1b were undone, not a single person was fedded.

This case against mmcp is the third huge streak of feds on them in less than three years, and there's been many before that.

People targeted during the wssb scandal were also generally better at handling it because most did nothing wrong and they actually knew what they were doing (making a solid investment the at the time?)
