With the changes to the attack system, Vicodin isn't being used as much anymore and the market is becoming flooded with them, and it's only going to get worse as time goes on. I propose that it be changed so you can possibly get Ecstasy instead of Vicodin. That is a more commonly used drug.
EDIT: Some people have suggested that LSD may be an option as well. or maybe just have xanax be more common. I will leave that to the devs to decide... But 50% chance of vicodin is flooding the market.
Due to recent events coming to light, I want to request my cash be returned from a fedded player.
Back in 2009, I deposited approximately 60 billion dollars in the faction vault. Another player withdrew the money without my permission and passed it to a player named Tea who was fedded a few minutes later.
Scamming was illegal at the time. Faction theft was also illegal at the time. Of the 60 billion dollars stolen, approximately 45 billion belonged to other people who entrusted me with their money that I, unlike the other investors affected, repaid with interest., 1%/day, compounded.
I realize 7 years of interest would be game breaking, so if I could just have the principle returned, that would be great. Thanks!
I understand people laughing when someone is scammed by a stranger... But this person befriended him, mentored him, gained his trust, then scammed him... That's f**ked up.
I think MB has a legitimate issue here. The faction should have switched to Mr_Owl, as the longest serving member. Clarka should actually be the last person in line.
A friend used to rent out 165 happy trailers to new players for $1, and for whatever reason she asked me to take over, so i did... Always happy to help new players.
But then people started sending me more trailers, anf more and more people sent more and more trailers... and 100s turned to 1000s.
It got so bad that clicking on my property page would cause your browser to crash.... I could only move to a spouses property using direct links... I had to cancel my yearly PI raffles....
I'm confused... You paid your opponents 1.5 billion to let you win AND paid 875 million to mercs? And one of the mercs, Transition, is a member also getting paid per hit?
And who lost money in the alleged vault theft? Seems like you are the one who actually lost here...
An all-expenses-paid trip to the red light district goes badly when you find yourself in Duke's den. When he realizes who you are, he promises to 'help you out' in exchange for you putting in a few good words about his organization. Extra time has been given to pay any debts you have.
It does not give you extra time to pay the fees, nor does it reduce the fees... if anything, It possibly raises the amount you can borrow, but what happens when you have that maxed out? Is it a waste of job points?
Only a small fraction of that money belonged to HT. It was mostly other people's money that we were all investing... I had 40-50B, I believe Dime had over 100B, Tea had to have had close to what I had, plus there was Sindree, Jallabrev, and a few others that had several billion of other people's money...
There was a group of investors that all offered 1% interest, compounded daily. The way the stock market worked then, you moved your money every 15 minutes, causing the stock to spike. Most of us were in the same faction so if someone was offline, someone online would just grab their money and invest it.
Scamming was still illegal at the time, it was made illegal shortly after. In fact, I still have the mail from Leuky saved where I asked if I was at risk of being fedded if I didn't pay back my investors.
Leuky was in charge at the time, Is0 was still admin but mostly inactive, and Clansy had just become admin... So it was mostly Leuky that handled it. The problem was, the faction we were all in had recently become HT-International, much to the dismay of one of the faction's owners.... Leuky. There was no question that Leuky was not HTs biggest fan at this time. That's why everyone wanted Is0lati0n to look into it.
Anyway, it was rare that one person would have all of the money, since there was about 10 of us that all worked together. HT-Gargoyle had just passed what he had to Tea and logged off, and 10-15 minutes later Tea gets fedded. And within an hour most of us were back online trying to figure out what was going on...at first we thought it was just an auto-fed for having too much money... But it soon became clear that wasn't it.
The money actually belonged to hundreds, if not thousands of people. I know I had over 50 investors, and had stopped taking on new ones, some of the others had many more. So yeah, it was quite a big deal. Most of the investors quit rather than deal with the fallout... I personally was about 30-40 billion in debt besides losing all my money...
Tea later admitted to us that it wasn't originally his account. He had taken it over a few years prior. Someone ratted him out and Leuky waited for the right moment to fed him. And all he was left with was his bloody rag.... He restarted a couple years later but is inactive now.
The other person who owned the faction with Leuky quit and just gave it to the girl who happened to be leader at the time. She was being pressured by HT to turn it over to them, and also to turn it back to what it was before the alliance... She ended up saying f**k it and sold it... That's a whole nother story.
HT was still the top faction, but they lost several of their top players, lost most of their money, lost their sister faction, and immediately went to war with them which dragged on for a couple months. All this time JFK had been mostly uneffected by this so they just got wealthy and kept growing, while HT focused on war instead of rebuilding.
In my case, I sold of a bunch of collectibles and properties, then started investing and took me about three weeks until I was in the black again and ended up repaying all investors with all their interest as if nothing happened, except for one who went inactive.
P.s. I purposely left out names and some details. Of they want everyone to know, they can post themselves.
