Cheating

Sat Jun 15, 2013 11:51 pm

As we have discovered there are a few of you who see fit to cheat eachother and our server economy by using exploits in our games to get easter egg rewards.

This will not stand on our servers. You are not only cheating yourselves out of working for materials on a survival server you are cheating our servers economy and your fellow players.

I am now going to name some individuals involved in the diamond heist. andronomos, bandwithman, exhound & cgirl.

We have logs of every command you used and the buttons you pushed and how many diamonds you received from that dispenser. We know that you used andronomos home storage2 to continually teleport back to the end of my easteregg and go through the reward room.

We have now corrected this fault and as result no one is now allowed to use /sethome, /tpahere or /accept anywhere at the spawn. If you want to know why you only have to look at these cheaters who have had their diamonds seized. Andro, bandwith and Exhound have had their /sethomes which went to the end of the easteregg erased.

You know I am very disappointed in you guys that instead of reporting this issue you decided to exploit it. Bandwithman had put in an application for moderator recently, that now is not going to happen, you were under consideration, but just blew your chances and I hope you're happy with yourself.

I'll admit to flying up to the top and getting Lapis once or twice, want me to burn it or something?
I still have the ore.
Sorry about that, also.

Shame, I saw all of you as good players, now you've ruined your reputation on the server. Hope you learn something.

I admit, I did too. Although we are in no high position to say so or do anything, I'm ashamed in these people and even myself. I'm gonna go burn that lapis ore now.

All I want is when people find bugs they tell us about them instead of exploiting them for personal gain. This is not the first time this happened and I'm getting quite annoyed with people misusing the new features we provide. The eastereggs were meant to be something fun for everyone to enjoy but it has just turned in to a farming exercise for exploit hunters.

If we are unable to stop this behaviour we may scrap the easteregg rewards altogether.

To clear this up a little. Cgirl did absolutely nothing wrong, she was teleported in and psi kept having a heart attack over nothing. We weren't stealing 100s of diamonds I think I got 2 in total we were mostly just hanging out. we don't need diamonds as the players you mentioned have no use for them. this was just blown out of porportion.

Agreed, I actually gave most of the diamonds I received to CGirl. I hardly needed them. As for her actions, there weren't any. She was teleported in by Bandwithman and myself and was a victim of a cruel yet harmless joke by us. So she deserves no punishment.

As for the "griefing" that I was supposedly doing:
  • I was in the wild (so pvp is enabled).
    Everyone was next to water and no one died.
    Not a single block belonging to anyone was destroyed.
    No one lost any items.
    I picked up the lava until I was jailed and couldn't anymore.
So I hardly consider that griefing.


This was all just some harmless fun a few of us were having and no one was harmed. This was completely blow out of proportion.

Cgirl hasn't been punished.

What about today then? You guys (Exhound, Bandwith, Andro) were all using invis potions and pretty much terrorising BillyBtheman as he was trying to build his town, bandwith has also claimed an outpost right next to it. Billy asked you to stop and you did not, you were following him around and I even saw exhound hit him. I then told you to stop and was watching you for a while and thus jailed you again.

Adrian unjailed you then you then you guys, exhound, band and andro started building a huge wall around BillyBthemans town and bandwith claimed right the way around it with a shipdock outpost so he couldn't expand his town even if he wanted to. exhound was draining the ocean with sponges also.

That's when I banned you three.

If this isn't grief then I don't know what is.

My fuse grew short, now it's the final straw.

This didn't touch a single block owned by someone else, and I was expanding into a giant outpost. Why do the moderators and now admins keep harassing us? And there is no pvp inside billy the dumbasses town all we did was stand around.


And what does this have to do with "cheating" diamond blocks anyways?

The story is all jumbled up...
We were just hanging around, having a laugh, not "terrorising"...
You jailed Andro for holding a piece of chicken for fucks sake, what are you thinking?
"Oh, look, andro is holding a piece of chicken, daym, better jail him..."
Get your shit together, we were peacefully making an outpost... right beside merton...
