i feel ya pain there welcome to the club seems a lot of that going around these days
While it is always very sad to see long established players leave the game (for whatever reason), perhaps it is best, for future, and present, players not to cheat, hack or otherwise make the game miserable for others and therefore this kind of thing will be prevented from happening again and again and again.
Hey Foggy,
What happened?
Oh, I lost that privilege long ago. Even before they introduced their TOS.
For playing 1 day (yes, only one day) with a clan that was putting vaults undermesh, impersonated Funcom admins and built swastica (even in front of admins).
Keep the good memories. 5 years is a really long time. I am pretty sure you had a lot of fun in this game and still it wonāt stop, only the official experience is what you lost, not that the loss is small, so it is clearly on you, nobody else can or should tell you what to do from now on.
I would only keep the good, yet this is me, not having your experience, so I canāt really understand the feeling, I just sympathize you.
So.
If you decide to leave, farewell it was a privilege to have you around.
If you decide to stay, I will be happy.
Thatās all I can say.
I am sorryā¦
I am guessing that perhaps you didnāt guess correctly on Funcomās extremely vague and subjective building requirements and dared to kill someone on your PVP server and were reported out of retaliation and subsequently admin deleted and suspended???
Just go out and get another $5 account like all the exploiters and hackers do and get right back in there and stick to griefing players rather than trying to actually play the game. Focus on things like duping and server crashing, exploits and third party cheats and just pull hit boxes and kill people to grab loot or slip into secure bases outside or inside raid time without doing damage and play the game that way. Funcom is too busy catering to the whiners and wiping legit bases because one of their employees decided to throw a subjective opinion out that someoneās base was too big for ātheirā liking.
Better yet, just pick up a copy of V Rising which was released yesterday and go play a vampire in a new survival game and leave Conan to what it is becoming, a joke of a game that will eventually be made up of special snowflakes that run around crying about pvp on a pvp server and reporting everyone that raids or pvps getting their bases wiped as Funcom caters to these whiners because focusing on the real issues is just too hard for them.
For the record, played since 2017, have never been banned, do not have a large base. I just think it is asinine that Funcom injects a subjective unmeasurable āruleā about building size into their game and instead of providing a warning on someoneās āpersonal opinionā of what is too big so the owner can correct, they just admin delete and ban based on a biased reporter and an employee that caters to whiners with their āpersonal opinionā that a base is too big. Come on Funcom, come up with a fair rule and/or tool where players can actually determine when their building is actually in violation rather than basing it on āpersonal opinionsā and bias.
4th time having a base wiped for being to large haha.
Yeah right? A simple warning and a timespan to fix your violation is appropriate. Not this insta banning/deleting behaviour that Funcom is providing at the moment. Theyāve been developing and supporting games since 1993 but still handle some things rather unprofessionallyā¦
Going too big?
How about trying a private server or three thatās more forgiving to server performance stuff? 5 years as well - am guessing thatās on same server or just in the game? Good luck.
Multiple different servers in the same region. All been admin wiped now
Had og thralls, yogs touch before nerfed. lying bastard swords before they got nerfed ect ect
all gone.
Yup, I canāt agree more. Just demolish the bases (and do it fairly across the server - and regularly) but stop banning people for base building - even the more ridiculous ones.
Timeouts and bans should be reserved for actual cheaters or maybe people that wall off a base - stuff like that. Or maybe even too egregious chat s**t talking?
Warnings, Iām on the fence about. Sure, if itās 1st time violator maybe⦠But if warnings are to be a thing I think it would be better for all involved to list the offenders in The Message Of The Day dialog box which requires everyone to at least click the OK button before they can play.
I believe we have established that all bases on all official servers can be checked weekly with basically the same staffers they have now. Especially if they filter OUT zendesk tickets of players reporting other playerās bases - or disallow that category all together. So people building ridiculously will lose everything but their thralls weekly until they figure it out.
its the fact is if someone thinks your base it to big and donāt want to waste their bombs on you that can use the report system to falsely report you and get your stuff deleted and you banned so they can get hopes of being the first one there to get your stuff⦠just like it happened to me⦠i logged in as my base was crumbling and the person that was involved was there grabing what he could and running off while the other two guys that was running by it saw what happened also and managed to save some stuff for me⦠so with that being said i was able to put a stop to the person that wrongfully report me from getting to much of my stuff⦠and boxed it all up before i was banned⦠and allowed my friends on the server to go after my stuff⦠but the point is my base was built up for pvp yes it may look a lil over sized but ⦠there is like 300 more base across the pvp server that far bigger then what we had and way more land claim then i ever do but its is just the one thatās targeted out by someone cause they donāt like your build or maybe its to much for them to raid⦠but most part sadly its a influx of new players to the game that think they know everything and donāt give a rats butt about ppl thatās been around conan for years helping othersā¦
Explains why you stranded on Renes servers.
Here we go again assuming because someone got banned they are cheating or being toxic. Take a step back look around this is simply not always the case
The thing is itās not as simple as having a big base⦠from my experience there is currently a thing called spam reporting so if you get enough people to report 1 clan itās pretty much guarantee admin wipe. I watched a clan get banned the other day and their base was admin wiped.( from what I could tell and Iāve read as much into it as everyone it was not against tos) Funny thing is if the admins actually cared about their so called rules they would have gone 2 grids over to another base( with alters on the map) and noticed the ridiculous amount of old fence stack that was still there. Not to mention every mountain surrounding them land claimed. That tells me they donāt care enough to simply teleport to other bases just to check. Is it really that hard to get a warring! āHey your base is a bit laggy and you have to much land claim. You have 2 days to get rid of it or youāll be bannedā seriously itās not that hard to do. Its getting really old seeing all these posts about player base being banned and not knowing the real reason. The entire system in which funcom goes about this is completely broken. This is my opinion that Iām entitled to one so letās try not to flag it right away.
The problem is then one could use an alt, exploit the crap out of bugs, the clan reap the benefits knowing only the alt will get the ban. Clanning up unfortunately means knowingbyour clan mates and their playstyle.
Oh dear Boobie (I like boobies, by the way). I never said anyone had cheated. I just suggested that in the future people shouldnāt cheat, hack or otherwise make the game miserable for others⦠Those 3 points are normally what Funcom ban people for. It then transpires that Foggy, in his own words states:
That to me is my point exactly. By making his base too large, not once, but 4 seperate times, he has indeed made the game miserable for others. Those of us that play on Official Servers regularly know this, and it is heart breaking that an established player such as Foggy doesnāt seem to.
No. The problem is banning non-cheaters in the first place.
And if there is actual cheating then yeah, sure, ban the clan.
So your FPS dropping down to 40 for 8 to 10 seconds makes you miserable? If itās dropping lower than that you need to reduce your settings. The kinds of bases that people are often being banned for donāt actually cause all that much lag. Yeah, yeah, some might⦠But of the banishments Iāve looked at where I could look, no⦠over half would hardly produce any FPS drop at all - not much difference from FC placed enemy camps - and often even less.
Whereās the misery?
No, itās like that everywhere. Thatās one of the complaints people are having and likely why (or at least partially why) people seem to think the report system is so bad.
Thereās no consistency of enforcement. If I believe people here, and there are enough individuals making the same claims that I do, a reported base can be wiped for having 8 or 10 lights in the front yard and a guy just down the street can have 50 lights all over the place and not get banned or wiped - for months on end - or until it too is reported if ever. Just as one example.
