Hello all, I decided to enter here to discuss what has been going on with a free server I have been playing on for over 8months now. First of all I came here because I thought it to help me get a better idea on my own situation and if anyone else experienced this before.
I play on a server I loved and did my part by voting every day 2 times a day and by donating to help the server and to get items. My last donation was about 4months ago. Needless to say our server was converted to mangos and everything lost, wiped out. With the 1 month of server downtime and poor news and decisions to it's players had a big impact and thus we lost over 70% of our original server population.
Our server is been on mangos for 1 month or about now. My problem is that our server staff OWNER has poor management skills and so we have players asking daily for our donation items back. With countless PM's and forum topics we get nothing. Has anyone else had these issues with there servers on trying to get your donated items back? A large portion of players have been given back items for donations and also the players who donated hundreds of dollars to get GM spots got their items. He even has 2 administrators who have bought their spots.
I am also upset at the fact that the owner was asking for donations everyday prior to the server wipe before he told anyone about it. The wipe came up with players who got duped into donating for items and not even realizing all the time invested was getting wiped and to have to wait.
My server I play on has so much going on right now with careless decisions and poor management and fraud. If you play on my server I suggest to never donate or vote. If you try and buy items with your vote points also you will never get the items since they keep erasing and they have no system setup to get you the items.
Also they are now charging an arm and leg for donated items and before the prices did not go this high but now they charge 60-400 dollars for items WTFBBQ!!
Now they are using cheats to get votes to rank higher. In world chat a gm said we are cheating the vote system to get you all more players to come here so don't worry. We went from 30s to 20th spot in 3 days with no others voting.
