Before I go however, here's the truth about the situation from yesterday: Aris and Michael were threatened by the guild Brazillian Rage after seeing one (Leoiuncini) of their guild members perma-banned justifiably by the way at the hands of Tenzhiro, that the server would be destroyed by them and they wouldn't stop until that goal was achieved, Michael and Aris both came to the conclusion that unbanning a cheater was more important than preserving the rules of the game. This bit of proof can be backed up by some of the tutors who helped me to understand the situation a little bit better, their names will be kept secret to protect their identity as I am sure they don't want to follow the path I am setting myself on.
I have stepped down from Community Manager and left a trail of fire in my wake. I refuse to have the playerbase lied to about the corrupted actions of the administration who would otherwise like to cover things up instead of being truthful and not open pandora's box which was what Aris did tonight and has been doing since launch. I will repost what I said on their discord here before I completely take a break from playing Tibia for a long period of time.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I don't have the will to explain this better than Tenzhiro did, mostly because he has it right on the nose.
I have zero time and/or patience to deal with a game where the people who are supposed to be enforcing the game rules go against it and make terrible judgement calls. What happened yesterday was beyond disgusting in the matter of how it was dealt with and then further by seeing Aris lie about the matter to the public instead of letting his "head of support" deal with it is even more astonishing.
I have no more drive to play, no longer will I support this game as I see the administration for what it truly is.
To all of the tutors, senior tutors, community managers and gamemasters I have met and conversed with during this period of my ever continuing career in the OTS Community I say thank you for the amazing experiences you have given me, unfortunately I have made it a point to cut all negativity from my life and Dura has become one of them.
I bid you all a fond farewell.

Who are you anyway? Never seen or noticed you online as a CM on Dura.
Although i don't agree with what happened, this feels like a shitton of unnecessary drama from your side, with the mic drop and all.
Well, bye, cant miss what has never been there.
Hello Grynchy/Royalty/Forgewright,
So this is the only thing I'll address because everything else was no actual claim, only rhetoric. What happened yesterday was very simple and I already gave statement to it in the Discord to the entire community:
1) The character you refer to was unbanned by God Michael yesterday after being banned yesterday by GM Tenzhiro. The evidence was not conclusive nor definitive. It suggests a 98% chance of macro-use, and a 2% chance of innocence. There is a standing rule when it comes to Dura's banning policy that you must be 99.5% certain a person is cheating to delete them, for obvious reasons. As you yourself can see by how much you're valuing your time playing the game -- equal gravity and seriousness must be given to other players, even those who are probably cheating, it must be definitive, if it's not then their time is also being played with by the whims of Staff and chance that they 'probably' are cheating.
2) There have been over 600 Accounts deleted on Dura since it's inception. About 5-10 have been unbanned. Why? Because it was not conclusive/definitive after reviewing evidence. This is perfectly sensible and True Justice. It would be rather alarming if we were 600/600 accurate. So I am glad to say that we review People's Bans where necessary and if we find we are in the wrong we overturn it -- for the innocent to not suffer by Staff's only 98.9% accuracy evaluating if someone is cheating. I appreciate your concern though. We will only become more and more adept at tracking and catching cheaters with accuracy and swiftness. Edit and Afterword: I'm sure you appreciate that it is better to be wrong in letting a guilty person go free than wrongly sentencing an innocent person.
This case was already being reviewed before anyone said any emotionally whipped statements that could not be seriously construed as Sever Threats to Dura as you claim. It's like any common court of law where saying "I want to kill you!" is not admissible evidence that this person was actually going to kill a man. People seeing a friend banned improperly, which is what occurred, in 2021 with Forums, Discord, Whatsapp, Facebook at their fingertips would be expected to emotionally lose themselves a bit saying "War!" I didn't then and I don't now take this as a serious threat because of the aforeexplained. Other people/groups on Dura have also make such types of impulsive claims in passing. If there was ever detected a serious threat in the way you describe, it would be deemed actual Destructive Behavior and would be categorically banned on the spot. That was not the case however.
What is also of particular interest to me is that your information comes from Tutors? What information are they privy to you that anyone else isn't? Tutors have access to a Dura Staff Discord which you do too. No tutor has any information above you.
And therefore this is where I'll make my last comment, as the Tutor Comment has a fine flavor of espionage. This reeks of drama for drama sake and rumors being taken up whole-heartedly and spun without any due diligence to facts and running pell-mell with it.
- I have stepped down from Community Manager and left a trail of fire in my wake.
- corrupted actions of the administration who would otherwise like to cover things up instead of being truthful and not open pandora's box

I wish you the best,
Good luck Grynchy
Lol that was funny unfair ofc xdjust a friendly reminder:
this guy have been unbanned after his guild threat staff on discord and voice chat theres more people like him inside brazilian rage guild who got unbanned in past but this particual video was published by gm we dont have access to other proofs of ppl using bot and getting unbanned after all but we assume just by rumors it is common thing on dura
Theres few ppl spamming discord asking for similar proof videos to two other cases from brasilian rage but staff completly ignore them and refuse to public it even tho they record every proof of cheater seems like some ppl are ban-proof
