  1. I hope by now it is clear that most of the ‘toxicity’ that comes around player bases from their leadership is mostly derived from staff pushing the constant need to be on the server at a very consistent play-style, otherwise there is punishment that comes for not having as many people online as your neighbours. Which causes discontent between the leaders of the settlement who wants his little town to flourish and the residents who simply want to have a fun time on a server whilst also living their life outside of the server. Rules and punishments that revolve around time and activity only end up hurting what they are built to support.

      We had a chance to put a stop to this 4 years ago when halflings had their region deleted and village griefed by GMs for ‘not being online enough’. Players enabled this behaviour for years

      There is, it existed on the server in Aegis. I had a city there

    What were the names of the towers in aegis you walked by going north on the kings road from spawn?

      aemon and daemon

  4. Was there any video of the Undead nether finale event in Aegis? I’ve been looking for ages and found nothing ?

      I remember it was livestreamed, whether all the old Aegis livestreams still exist is a mystery though

  5. My nibba Dalek got banned for protecting his land. Guess the era of admins hating halflings is back boys.

      If I may interject, wasn’t the 6 day ban given for spamming and locking signs with vulgar messages on them? After given the ban, he went on to, in his words, ‘finesse’ the GMs which resulted in the ban being waived.

      This system was introduced this year. You really don’t believe that we ever had a better way of doing it previously?

      The fact you could get around it doesn’t change that it’s badly implemented and a stupid concept

      ‘Inactive’ does not equal low population count. A low population count caused by factors outside of their control. Doesn’t take a lot of brain power to figure that out. Also it’s absurd that 2 very different groups like Oren and Halflings should have to hit the same quota, 6% of the server population, to achieve very different things (Oren wants an empire, Halflings want 1 village)

      Like I said, I have never brought it up. But you’re the high and mighty one, we all know that. Wherever I go on the forums, you follow making comments. Anyone would think you’re obsessed with me

      The difference between us sky is that I have never demanded or expected respect for the sheer amount of myself I have dedicated to the server this past 7 and a half years, both in public and behind the scenes. Very few can say they have shaped the server in such a significant way as I have. Not to boast, but you brought it up

      Not Undead, our only rule was that you weren’t allowed to pick flowers. It’s Nawari Gypsies but I had to look it up

  13. Can y'all stop bullying the halflings. Literally the only community on the server I feel bad for when I hear they got raided.

    1. Hobbs_Burrows

      Hobbs_Burrows

      @Unwillingly Like I said, that kind of behaviour shows you need to have a rethink on why you're on the server. You cry on the forums about people hiding chests behind blocks and want them banned. Not to mention that the group in question are the only group on the server committed purely to having fun. Tough-talking alpha male internet persona isn't very convincing

      We have no valuable items, and we don't fight. I think if you then raid us you're a pretty pathetic person and need to evaluate why you're here and what you're doing with your life

  15. How hard can it be for a GM to send someone a forum message to the person they ban with the reason. 

    Grow a backbone, GM's.. jesus christ. 

    1. Hobbs_Burrows

      Also all evidence needs to be posted publicly. The number of bs bans would go right down almost immediately if it was practiced in public (as any judicial system should be)

      The GM who banned me for breaking 1 cobble hid away for 3 days until I finally found out who he was. Such a childish fear of responsibility

      I thought his weird recent behaviour would mean they reject his app. I guess it only encourages people

  18. Out of all the races I've interacted with as a Halfling. It has literally only been dwarves who have attempted to kill my character... I'm so confused. I would have thought orcs would have been the cruel ones. But they actually helped me when I first joined lol

      @AlgodaI remember me and my Legion mates at Fort Gold  at Kal'Alras going out orc hunting, and refusing to let orcs anywhere near Kal'Alras. Better times

      All of the old Dwarves must be spinning in their graves watching this new bunch of Dwarves try to terrorise Halflings. Dwarves have been Halflings best friends since the server began, but now they're just PVP goon kids

  20. @dogbewSince you wanted to lock my previous status updates, I decided to help you with your job a little. Every single one of these posts can be categorized as "criticism", and if they were allowed to stand there is no reason why my comment shouldn't. The blatant targeting is getting to ridiculous levels at this point. This needs to be constructive? Stop arbitrarily hiding posts and treating some people different from others. How's that for constructive?

      I was banned for a week for planting trees in freebuild, no communication with a GM, just banned out of nowhere and I still don't know who did it

      I would encourage everyone to build and gather purely in survival mode. It brings people together, gets people active, and makes you proud and connected to the world

      Long roads, regions on the roads, barren landscapes (lack of trees, but I have planted 600+ saplings in freebuild), ugly birch/fence custom trees that don't decay, giant empty cities pushed right to the edges of the map

  24. You know, if the Halflings get special CT protection then how long before Sutica and Fenn get CT protection too? I understand that halflings are a peace loving race but what's stopping me from making a Halfling with the sole purpose of committing acts of banditry and then hiding my stolen loot in my basement? 

    1. Hobbs_Burrows

      Hobbs_Burrows

      What is actually your problem here? Have you noticed any Halflings abusing the system and want something done about it? Are other races soon going to be given a region near the cloud temple like the halflings? Or are you just jealous that Halflings have something that you want, and you're not happy about it?
