Strategus General Discussion / On the question of Cheating

« on: October 13, 2015, 08:38:16 am »

This is absolutely absurd. We did nothing to cheat on strat and if I accidentally glitched something out in a fief that doesn't even have an army to defend it against a raid, well I'm not going to apologize for that. Why should I? As for the others, I don't fucking know. We've spawned with broken weapons and not peasant gear defending stuff too. I don't know what to tell you. If any other members of the clan have somehow glitched out strat and cheated in the past, then they should apologize for their actions and be dealt with accordingly.

What I did was the following: I had a battle, I was gear-bugged. I sold the gear to the crappy castle I was trying to get silver from. I then raided it because someone suggested it to me in teamspeak. I thought it was a prudent thing to do, since the goal was to get money out of this debacle. If selling gear to a fief somehow gear bugs it, that's kind of fail. It really doesn't make sense to me.

I can also confirm that no one in teamspeak proposed to me that I should sell the gear to the fief and then attack it in order to gear bug it. We aren't scheming and plotting like most people's perception of bankers or something. I'm a noob in strat so I have no idea what the hell is going on, but it seems that my mistake (which doesn't really change the situation for largos' fief anyways) has caused a great deal of problems for my faction. I suppose I will apologize for that. Regardless, the reaction and following action which caused Louis to lose his army is completely unjustified. Countering cheaters by cheating is stooping to their level and anyone that pressed 1 in those polls should be ashamed of themselves.

1. Baron_Bauer_of_Acre (in game as WILLARCHIETROLLHISOWNBATTLE)
2. Schoi (Skoi in game), various.
3. APPROX 1:15 EST NA_3
4. We were ninja rostered at a strat battle because we were accused of gearbugging fiefs (?) and raiding (which I did do, which is not a violation of the rules, obviously). Because they were naked and without weapons and we had taken most of their ticks they began polling to kick/ban me so as to get weapons and remove me from the server. The admin did very little to stop this until too late for whatever reason, but that may have been an honest mistake in judgment and I do not hold it against the admin, despite the feeling that while it happened he was really just going through the motions. We lost the battle and Louie's army because they managed to ban me and steal a weapon and get flags. We were very nearly done with the battle and had won. Had I not been banned there is little to no chance that we would have lost. The fact that I was banned is the sole reason we lost the battle. Schoi was banned for a SINGLE HOUR for this. I believe this is far too leniant of a punishment. This was extremely unsportsmanlike on the part of schoi and the majority of the players who polled to kick and then ban me for no legitimate reason. I did nothing wrong on strat as far as I know. I sold gear to a fief to ungearbug myself. I then attacked that fief. If that somehow gearbugs the fief, then that's on the devs not me. I was unaware of that. I do not have screenshots, but I have witness and I am sure the admin will be honest enough to explain what happened objectively.
5. See above. Because he is a troll and he wanted attention and he was probably the only one willing to violate the rules to do what the rest of their team wanted to do.
6. Multiple Screenshots (Witnesses)
7. NAUGHTPRIMARY_OF_BIRD, Froi, Uulmshar, the other team.
