Long story, lots of not real drama. Online friends fighting of silly game we call torn.
I am far from perfect in this mess, my biggest error was to trust someone with a gambling problem. Noso and I had to fix the faction vault for him in the past but he did not lie about it or try to make it look like someone else did it. When I took a long break from torn, I said I was going to try to not come back. Rich was not even in Rawr when I went to leave, I asked him to come back to get someone active that I trusted to run Rawr. But truth is I just wanted Rich back... but it was nice to get away from torn and then real life happened. I even talked about selling the faction and splitting the money with Rawr members. But Rich said time and time again that he was just going to keep Rawr safe for me when I got back and that it was always mine. The whole time I was gone, Rich was given my bank investments to buy xanax for members and to chain if he wanted.
I went to come back a few times and did not like what I saw, Rich was pushing out good members. He claimed no one respected him and they still saw me as leader. He would tell me that I needed to come back and then he would push me away saying that I need to spend time with my family. All in the same day... I would ask for access to stuff in Rawr and he would get mad and say that it took time to give access and that I was not active. I never removed his access when he was to busy or not able to log in for months. But he has his own trust issues and no one had access to any thing when we came back.
The last straw was when Smidget saw that her vault funds were deleted from the forums. She talked with him and said what he wanted to hear and after about a week he added her funds back to the forum but the vault was short. He did win in the casino and dropped 10 bil... that fixed the vault but his greed got the best of him and the vault went from 17 or 18 bil to just under 8 bil in a matter of days. Since her money was in the forums I told her to ask the co leader to send it to her before she did not have money. She had the most to lose and the one person in torn I can't help as she is my wife. We stayed for a few days after she got her money but it was clear that Rich was pissed that he did not have her money to gamble with to try and win it all back with. I never asked for Rawr back, I asked how bad it was and if he needed help paying back what he owed the vault. He told me where to stick the faction and said I would never get it back. He later offered me co leader but still would not talk about what he did with the vault or that he was going to pay it back. Just went off on me about how I never said hello and now I am trying to take over. Even before we left Rich was saying that he could make it look like we scammed Rawr but he has no leg to stand on. If I was leader I would have kicked him for the crap he pulled but he had the faction and made it clear he was not going to give it back so we left.
Rich was not even playing torn when I started Rawr. The name and group came from another game we played. Rich did play the other game but not in Rawr and not even when we were all active there with Rawr. I thought he was someone else but that part does not really matter. He later joined Rawr when he saw us talking on the other game's irc about torn. He was not even active for over a year when he started. He did work his way into Rawr leadership and was part of our 3 way cash/faction share. His chaining shows how hard he works and cares for Rawr but what you don't see is all the people that left over some thing he said or did. I always backed him up even when he went after my wife (smidget). I told her he was just drunk and he did not mean what he said. Rich did try to make up with her but it was never the same but she stayed for me.
Sadly now Rich will not even sell me Rawr, so yes I made a new faction and no... we are still not set on a name but for now we go Rawr! What makes me the most mad about all of it, not the years put into Rawr.... but the friends in the middle. I am grateful of the factions and players that have helped us. Please don't war them unless you were going to anyways, it wont help. Thank you, T-Rex
One post and you want forgiven. You basically had everything you could have wanted with us but without all the hate. You posted to try and not be forgotten. You still don't give a shit about us or what you lost. I am sorry that real life is or was hard for you but you are dead to me. I lost the friend I wish I never had. Just go away
While I agree it isn't fair... I think you forget most of the players are men and boys pretending to be women. The rare females were included. Many good players left out for men too.
Just looking at your profile... lvl 66 and leader of a dead faction you were given. Clearly many think you are a scammer. While yes some scammers made this list you didn't. Just be happy you own a faction worth a few bil. You are 2k days... chill out
Not sure what you expect but I was happy my drama wasn't a collection topic. I knew most of the players listed. Many of them were my leaders over the years.
Just yikes... I spent billions on armor that I couldn't possibly replace even once a year or two. If you have to much money, feed a dinosaur but don't come up with ways to steal what I got.
Sadly I am leaving for vacation and like every year I am going to lose my torn job. Thankfully real life isn't as harsh. I just think it would be cool to earn vacation leave for torn too. I understand we need people to stay active but can't we have a real life too?
My vacation is just over a week and I will most likely hurt the company if he keeps me. Sadly it's not easy to get in my industry even with my work stats.
I think best way is to have a vacation mode you can switch on. Clearly would need limits to keep people from abusing but shouldn't punish people who go offline for multiple days. Earning days like real life is silly, this is a game and but many of us put in over 40 hours a week. Let us take a vacation.
I question the balance, yes I am a def ho. But it's not fair to punish us for using armor. Without armor our stat is worthless. Why not just make dex hos able to win fights without even fighting.
I understand the need for waiting 3 days to be part of a war... less on the perks not working till you been there 3 days but what bugs me the most is not being able to have perks back when going back home.
I suggest being able to set a home faction with no wait on perks or positions. Able to war would be helpful but could be abused by setting your home as a subfaction and able to switch and fight right away.
But to set a home faction, you have to have been there 30 days in a row without leaving and be in it. Leaving resets your 30 days keeping you from resetting it.
I don't see a need to add a waiting period on how often you change your home faction but also don't think it should be switched every month.
I agree, it's a joke now. I did find one green egg but if idea is to keep us on torn... cool. I think best plan is to look on the last day but that shouldn't be how it works. I don't make my kids wait till they don't care anymore to find an egg. They are literally bright colored eggs in the open. It's like a drunk father forgot to hide the eggs so you have to follow him around as they fall out of his pockets.
