24 bans in one sitting that's a record xD
right now if you add the bans before (still don't understand why do you keep on playing there after 1st ban) you have 33 chars banned out of 191 total bans which is around 17-18% xD
considering there's 450 online count, yeah for sure after 4 months GM's delete botting people, for sure xD
We were almost sure we'd get banned, but we survived for 4 days. The GM probably had enough of the complaints, so after 3 days, he announced on Discord that PK would be illegal on the server, but only for our team.

By the way, this ban sounds terrible, but all you need to do is delete two lines from the config in the appdata to unban yourself.
In my opinion, the GM's approach is strange. He banned 30 people because instead of fighting monsters, they were killing players. He even accuses us of doing it just to ruin the server, which is totally untrue. It's faster to earn money by killing people than by looting.
It's our fault that the GM is so incompetent that he blames us for the frag system. After so many months, nobody knows that there's no frag for most damage (by the way, interesting why that is, maybe because you can't get PKed), but whatever, it's clearly the fault of those nasty level 8s who are ruining the server. What a domination.
According to the GM, the problem is that we're fighting with low levels and have nothing to lose. Isn't it obvious? We just started on the server, so after 2 days we're supposed to have level 40? It seems like it's our fault that people don't have the right runes to get out of traps or can't handle 20 level 8 players, so they had to ask the GM for help.
The funniest thing is that the GM is building a community of whiners who will cry to him after every death because they died to illegal PK. Even the Swedes who bought a few characters got banned for PK, but he unbanned them because they said they were killing "enemies."
In summary, the Miracle server is no longer Tibia; it's something entirely different. You can log in, fight monsters, chat with people, and have a laugh, but heaven forbid you attack anyone. Well, you can, but first, you have to ask the GM for permission because who knows if they'll label it as destructive behavior. Maybe the heat in Brazil is getting to the GM's head.
@EDIT
Graphs of players online tells a different story, I don't play this OT but I like checking numbers of OTs and this one is growing nicely.
Maybe GM is taking good decisions that is good for the community, it is rare but possible (I don't have info).
Games like Tibiantis which follow the "no intervention" approach is known for extreme toxic community
It's true, there are some players, but the number doesn't reflect reality. In the game, you can set up what's called a shop, which means leaving a character AFK with a shop that can stay open 24/7 even with the client closed. Additionally, the rules state that you can have one shop and play on second account. This means that if there are 600 players online, around 100 are multi-clienting and 250-300 are actual players, as a percentage of them have shops open.
