Where do you stand on pixel trackers?
EDIT - Longterm fabrication done by someone to make staff look bad or actual thing that happened by staff or someone who liked the game very much.

I thought the same thing about the ID but I learned while reporting a banned player on another game...
Jeshin#0001 <--- discord ID you caught me! change name Bob#42314 change name Jeshin#4134
If you change your username and change it back, you get a new # so she could have screenshotted it, Shalnooshboosh could change his name and back and suddenly oh no look those # don't match.

Based on this anecdote... Staff must spend a lot of time, not doing anything. Those who are worthy die and those who live are unworthy </3

Did anyone forget about this post where he basically goes players have advantages yada yada, I'll go make an NPC that does XYZ. Seems like staff or at least one staffer was discussing the changes that have come down the pipe for non-PK reasons.

So I was turned onto Hamilton a few months ago. The animatics on youtube are pretty spiffy. I leave you with this one and lets see if people can pull out the key phrase from it... youtu.be/uduagwxKGi4

To those outside third parties coming to this. This is just a moment in which Qwerty has finally occupied three positions at once. Thus allowing people who have been wanting to demonstrate his snake oil salesman posting to others an opportunity to do so. Think of this as a public flogging in which one side is going ACKNOWLEDGE, ACKNOWLEDGE YOUR SHILL-DOM OR PROVE IT WITH MOAR BAD POSTING and the other side is going NAY! Really this would all be done if any of us had the time or inclination to actually go back and cite Qwerty posts in full. Do one of those arguing against yourself videos but in post form, no one had time for youtube video editing this. youtu.be/-WmMj4lfpdc

I didn't say anything about the reviews. I was asking about your personal goals and what mattered to you in the middle ground.
You said you want proof of abuse/cheating, but the majority I would assume do not trust the staff complaint tool to resolve in a reasonable/fair manner. If it's a complaint against another player I imagine the staff just need to be flagged to an irregularity and they can look at the runlog and determine it themselves. I just wonder what motivates someone has to provide evidence of staff complaint issues if they weren't on their way out. Plenty of people play games they're not stoked on to play with friends or no alternatives. There are people on this forum who claim to still play but clearly have complaints that they do not articulate because they want to be able to play. It would seem like what you want most is the hardest kind of reporting to get because of the risk of fallout.

Is it at all problematic that in order to provide the evidence of the issues you care about that a player pretty much has to resign themselves to being banned? Unless they send it solely to the staff complaint tool which I don't think anyone, even you would agree is a productive use of a complaining players time even with logs.

Qwerty why couldn't you test it before trying to imply the review was misleading or fake by claiming an aspect of it was no longer in-game?
Even when Delerak is like it happened a few months ago...
Aren't you staff and/or an active player? You can't just test this right now?
Don't you directly message people on this forum asking for 'more details' about their experiences so you can 'look into issues' for them?
>_> can you hold a consistent position for like a hot second?

My point is more Qwerty immediately tries to discount the review as unauthentic. He questions whether it's accurate or written by someone who has played recently. He can't simply go, oh yeah that's a review, okay.

Why can't a review just be legitimately someone disliking the game? The first time I played Armageddon I died to kryl while sleeping at a logging spot because I didn't know better. Newbies never have 'good' experiences on a game like Armageddon which is meant to be harsh and unforgiving. It takes a few throwaways and some motivation to keep trying to get a 'good run' it's like a roguelike in that regard.

It's an easy trope to fall into. You're a gladiator. You're a celebrity. You're not a celebrity due to your wits! You gotta act all macho because that's literally what the role requires. I bet WWE wrestlers act the same way as well. Even if half them have minuscule ball sacks due to all the steroids and they've long lost interest in opposite sex. Sex is part of life. There is a gazillion of vocations IRL that require women 'and' men to appear just a hair short of sexually enticing to keep clients attention piqued. Especially in entertainment/service/sales industry. Dont take it too seriously, would be my advice. I'm not sure the advice of "don't take it seriously" is really applicable to "these two dimensional characters only wanted sex and it was sad / boring to RP around" it would seem the player already didn't take it seriously because it was a stereotypical bad joke to them.

Reconciling is not futile because of the personalities. It's futile because the majority of the active posters don't even play anymore, haven't played in years and wouldn't play again. There is nothing to reconcile these are people with lives doing their own thing coming to talk about something they used to do because it kills the time and Armageddon is often so wrong it's like watching a drunk try and make it into a cab. I like the hobby, I like RPIs, they are dead or dying and Armageddon is just a good example of why. HavenRPG likewise has insane staff. SOI insane staff that torpedoed the flagship RPI. It's not like Armageddon is unique. It's just really good and continuing on in comparison.
That's also why there aren't as many guides as their used to be, the people who could write them haven't played in so long we have no ability to make an accurate or helpful one.
