You all well know my issues with how funcom moderates the public servers.
I do not want to report people because funcom does it’s bans so wrong. I want people to be given a warning; I’m not the person to do that, they need to explain how the person is violating the ToS and be given the opportunity to fix it. I guarantee 80% will with no quibble.
What prompted this was me looking at the map and seeing a god/temple marker on Telith’s island, a POI with 2 other POIs and a lore stone. I have seen multiple people banned for building there. Yet funcom simply will not make it a no build zone.
If you can be banned for building there please funcom, make it a no build zone.
Although this could affect single player, there’s some time now that single player session gives you the option to build everywhere. So i am 100% down with this also, Funcom protect your players!
last year on the server i play, a player was warned by e-mail (the one vinculated in the game client) he didint noticed the e-mail and got a seven days ban, but didnt lost his base, just the side that as afecting a chest spwan was demolished. I trusted him and i was happy if FC adopted a better way to enforce their policies. I dont know if it was a personal decision of a good admin or the defualt procedure now. dont know if on ennhanced the e-mail still vinculated, didnt found where to put it, on the account tab on settings there are only an option to allow data collection. Atm even playing online on official server my client says “offline mode” and i lost all map markers and clan statistics are freeze, number of blocks and placeables didint change anymore.
Outright wiping people’s bases rather than messaging them first and giving them time to fix something is ridiculous. Building on a lake of water not blocking anything and being wiped for land claim abuse or something without giving the specific location is balls. Because people can and do spam and abuse the report function for petty revenge vibes
They need to remove the rule about build in POI its useless.
Multiplayer online servers shall be used to play was multiplayer , used to make friends , to play with other peoples the lore and poi right now change NOTHING for your character you didnt learn nothing with it one people building in a poi place doesnt block your progress in game also theres the single player mode where you can play read the lores and open the pois AND if transfers still working you can transfer to any empty world read it or open the poi in your map and back to your living world.
I remember years ago the same cry about world bosses " OHH MY GOD SOMEONE BLOCKED THE RHINO BOSS NEAR THE DEN MY GOD I CANT KILL IT NOW MY LIFE IS RUINED"
And some inocents and new players getting banned for building in places like it
Even when we have about 50+ world bosses in the map
So what funcom have done? They removed the rule about build in world bosses and right now we dont have more problems about it , no more new players getting banned and no more people dont have to do nothing in life crying in forum.
For last in Ark a very good and very very popular game you can build in almost ANY place even in caves where you need to get one item to make the bosses and we dont have this problems .
