You can make a crew with a police-state government if you like. Then you can stop those bad deals taking place between your friends.

Um… I just have one question in response to this idea. How are you going to stop bad deals that are made by players with gapples and god? Unless all the police have the exact same armor and gear, stopping someone or some crew like CoV is comparable to committing suicide.

Civil war isn’t what you’re saying. What you’re talking about  is a petty little war between you and another little crew. Stop blocking up the forums with stuff almost no-one cares about. We don’t even know half of the people in your post.

Oi, you tit. Godsy said post it in the right thread, what do you do? You create another thread!

http://piratemc.com/topic/requests-to-remove-claims/ is the right one…

@godsdead

You are a LONG term player, you should know to use the correct forum…

Post here next time

So I have a couple of comments:

1. Removal of TPA/TPAHERE commands would kill the server, nobody is going to visit your build and see what you are doing or to help for that matter. This has been done here and it failed, for a reason.

2. The abuse of TPA/TPAHERE/BACK/TOP etc are rampant. For example, you can’t sail a ship since any captain can just /top onto the deck and appear beside you. So I completely agree they are “A” problem, but perhaps not “THE” problem.

3. As to the original post, a “delivery service” would be an additional risk for a seller. Even without TP I’d stuff an enderchest, walk empty handed, and deliver it myself. As a buyer, I might be lazy enough to have someone pick something up for me If I could be sure it would not be stolen. As such the “service” would have to buy the item, deliver it, and only get paid on delivery.

4. Creating more opportunity for PvP can be far less disruptive than the recommendations here. If we had “other worlds” to explore that were more rich in materials, people would go. These other worlds can simple disable the ability to claim land, teleport, etc. Truly “peaceful” players may never go there, but a majority would risk it if the reward in materials is there. Another possibility would be another “dimension” in like a sky-islands setting where the only transport is flying ships. Instead of disabling TPA/TPAHERE/etc we could add 30s warm-up and 5 to 15-minute cool-downs in a new “dimension” without disrupting the current world or gameplay.

5. All of this skirts the “real” problem. IMHO, the root-cause is that I can build a stone box and I’m 100% safe from anyone. This is both good and bad. I can’t imagine not having a “safe” base unless I have some other storage that is safe from thieves.

Meh, just some thoughts, but I still like this server the way it is though 😉

I disagree with that. TP is a key thing in this as to walk across the map takes over a hour to do. Now if you want to get rid of it. i would leave it as a donation offer. as i donate for a captain, you could add the ability to tp as a donation. this way it will not go away in full. As for people walking to a base and TPing there crew in. PEOPLE this is a PVP sever. PVP will not stop, the best thing you can do is defend your base better and get good gear.

So we are clear, I am not telling you to not appeal the ban. You will not get banned for that. There is a right place to make ban appeals, here on the forums, not in game, and not under “PirateCraft General”, but under “Help Request Ticket” where you posted this: http://piratemc.com/topic/teslotorpedo-ban-appeal/

Staff did read your request. Your original post should have updated rather than a new one created. But this is not why I am replying.

I’d like to cover why you did get in trouble with me, so let’s recap our conversation…

[15:47:48] [Client thread/INFO]: [CHAT] [_PigGuardian_ » -> me] can I request an unban on teslo
[15:48:41] [Client thread/INFO]: [CHAT] [me -> _PigGuardian_ »] NO. And you have already posted on forums. Ask me or another mod again and you
[15:48:50] [Client thread/INFO]: [CHAT] [me -> _PigGuardian_ »] may wind up joining him :/

^ A polite enough, but very firm response. Do not contest staff decisions, RULE #2 http://wiki.piratemc.com/Rules

But that didn’t stop you, you immediately responded:

[15:49:15] [Client thread/INFO]: [CHAT] [_PigGuardian_ » -> me] But I see no proof of him hacking
[15:49:50] [Client thread/INFO]: [CHAT] _PigGuardian_ has been kicked by MCShovel for Do not contest staff decisions.

^ This is my way of saying “Do not argue with me.” It means, as far as I’m concerned, the conversation is over. It means I will not discuss it further with you in game, and if you persist punishment will be given appropriately.

Unfortunately being kicked from the game didn’t get your attention either. You then came back and addressed me in public chat:

[16:10:59] [Client thread/INFO]: [CHAT] _PigGuardian_ » MCShovel will you be satisyfed if I give you a screenshot of his versions folder to see if he has hack

Then you log off before I can even reply :/ So I had to send you one last mail in game:

[16:15:34] [Client thread/INFO]: [CHAT] _PigGuardian_ has been sent the following mail:
[16:15:34] [Client thread/INFO]: [CHAT] [MCShovel] If I hear you ask again you will be banned, no questions no appeals.

And what did you do? You proceed to bug other staff members. I don’t know if this is how you behave with your parents, but my kids know better than to pull this crap. The only way you are guaranteed to not get what you want in my house is to keep nagging one parent or, if you ask the other parent when you don’t like the first answer.

Next time if I ask you to drop it, take it offline to the forums instead of pestering me. If you follow the rules, including Rule #2, we will get along great. I hope that you now understand why you got in trouble, and hopefully this will serve as an example of what *not* to do.

PS: I do not want to see you banned for this. You’ve played here a long time, and I hope you will continue to do so. I’m sorry your friend got banned, but sometimes bad decisions have real consequences and other times life just isn’t fair.

I’m sick to death of you @AidsPlays

1. You got off with not a single punishment for using an offensive username in game, that is not allowed, We all know you are full of shit; If you wanted your name you would have used your name and not Aids, But it does describe your sour aggressive personality down to a T, you deserve to be called Aids. usually its an instant ban, I was lenient and light-hearted with giving you a nickname, to keep it lighthearted but since you have:
   1. Caused drama over this; in-game related to this incredibly light-hearted, kind way of dealing you.
   2. Spammed me via PM and in-game.
   3. Now spamming the forums publicly… Continuing to be a menace and causing trouble.
      
2. Ignoring you? Are you having a laugh? Oh im sorry im not online 24/7 in different timezones to bend over for little pretentious asshole children, that nickname themselves Aids. Twat. you have really dug yourself your own grave.

Aids, you are atrocious; you have a disgusting attitude, and you need to read this:

http://piratemc.com/topic/psa-player-behaviour-and-respect-to-staff-yes-were-whitelsited-read-this/

But because im such a good admin, I will give you the benefit of the doubt, you have one last chance before you are permanently banned, you have earned yourself 7 days tempban.

Closed.

though I don’t know if this is relavant or not, but I recall duo saying in chat that someone (will no disclose whom) donated for his rank. someone donated for duo, not him… I don’t believe I have a screenshot of this unfortunately. as for duo /backing near my base, yes. he did this multiple times, to the point we lavaed his /back point, which still didn’t stop him. quite irritating. though, I did get a kick when he thought he lost me, when I just tped home and /toped right on top of him 😛
