Well, this is about a guild got punished by exploiting a bug, keep this in mind. No matter what the Admin did, they would charge against him anyway. They are trying to minimise the exploit thing. They generated tons of CCs. Everyone that hosted an OT knows how harmful is this.
This is an explanation of what happened from my perspective, as the second Admin here, to clarify things:
I told the Admin to delete these chars from the beginning of this bug exploit, he disagree. I gave him the idea of auctioning permabanned chars some time ago, is common practice in other OTs to put permabanneds for auction, nothing personal here... After all we thought these people were not interested in coming back so Admin tried this formula. Passed a week we changed our minds and decided to return these chars, given the intention seen in discord to return to the game and, honestly, this guild was facing the top guild and this was good for everyone. Nobody wants to rule a server with just one guild, this is so absurd as an argument. The Admin do not provide any advantage to any guild, he doesn't even play. Finally, it wouldn't be fair for the rest of the community to return these chars as is, so Admin returned them with no items. So, they passed from being deleted to recover their chars after a week with no items. This is insane
No time to deny every single lie in here because it would be a waste of time, too much to deny. But this is one so obvious that I will:
No passion you said... what attribute do you think a person has to have to invest so much hours in an OT? A custom OT requires hours and hours of work. We were exhausted till the opening trying to make it as perfect as we could!! The money is not the goal, it's the satisfaction. If I have to bill the hours spent here there is no income to fill the gap.
Conclusion: lesson learned! We better just delete cheaters next time... The main problem here is a big bug exploited instead of being reported. If so this will be a different story.
Well, thanks for playing, we were happy having a guild facing Night Raid and fresh new players, and then ruined all by cheating instead of reporting, do not miss the point. That's so disappointing for all! Bye bye
goodluck on your journey, you deserve better.
