Kairoz hit the nail right on the head here.Kairoz wrote: ↑Thu Feb 16, 2023 11:50 pm
First. I saw my name raised a few times. The ones who caught my attention were, one thing about how much i have spend in auctions in the last years, and another was me in a PM exchange with another player. Both things were very disturbing to me. Because they generate a lot of assumptions that are mostly inaccurate.
To me it was pretty offensive the idea of a correlation between gold x EDs donated in those numbers. I speak for myself. This fallacy implies me as someone who just donated thousands of euros to get to the auction prizes, which is completely false, i only donate 2 or 3 times a year, a very humble amount... that discredits all the hard work i do in this game for grinding (manually, i only got the famous balron script couple weeks ago and i dont run it too much), farming real hard, many hours per day, learning, developing my skills, always trying to feed the market with good and fair deals, specially for the newer players. That auction Data file causes a totally misconception about things, shouldn't never be brought up, totally mistake.
Also, it makes me very sad to see my words taken out of context to support ones arguments, without my previous consense. Is this suposed to be a standard practice now? To expose people with their own words with no warning? Because if it does, i say respect is totally dead toward those who do it. No matter what is being discussed, no matter who has reason or not, we must try to be respectful with one another, and preserve each others integrity.
Second I think its clear enough what is the real issue in here. The Balron script WAS something that was causing a imbalce to the economy, PRECISELY because it was something destined to belong to a group of few people who had the knowledge to build it, and for looooooooong time use it to grind unprecedent amounts of gold. Myself, i never had the knowledge for scriptting, but i also always wanted to see how a nice script works. When i had the opportunity to buy it, thanks to Muolke, i did it and don't regret it at all. But, it is clear, some people got their feelings hurt, and started this crusade to point fingers to faces and be the saviors of the economy (yes, the same people who used to earn millions a day by running it for entire daily periods, big laugh). Honestly, +C, it isnt about balrons loot or recalling cooldowns. This is about some peoples Egos hurt.
These are the factual events that took place:
1. Months ago ZeeeQi asked for 600 million gold for his Balron script.
2. A few weeks ago Muolke offered to sell a very similar script for 30-40 million gold.
3. Up until Muolke offered to sell the script at a very reasonable price (about 5% of what ZeeeQi asked for it btw) only a couple of players had access to such script.
4. Kairoz purchased the script from Muolke, which btw Kairoz offered to buy before Muolke even made the script available for sale to the public.
5. Only AFTER ZeeeQi saw that multiple players were interested in buying the script did he make his own script available for free. He wants the community to have the perception that he was just trying to be a nice guy sharing with everyone but in reality it's because ZeeeQi didn't like the idea that someone else could profit from such script. It was minutes AFTER Muolke made an ad in world chat for the script that ZeeeQi got upset and dedided to make his script available on the forum. He was so upset that Muolke could have possibly made millions of gold selling his script that not only did ZeeeQi make his own script available on the forum for free but he actually went into the forum thread where Muolke was selling his script and made a post about him giving his away for free.
6. Kairoz was fully aware of the transaction he was making. He's been around for a few years and isn't a naive person. Kairoz made an investment and purchased the script from Muolke knowing the goal was to break the monopoly ZeeeQi (and a couple of his close friends) had and to this day doesn't regret his purchase nor does he feel like it was a scam. Meanwhile ZeeeQi is intentionally sending players private messages telling them that I scammed a player out of 30 million gold...along with his new buddy John Warren doing the same exact thing.
7. ZeeeQi then attempted to change the subject into "who has spent most at auctions" to once again deflect and try to make himself look better while attempting to make other players look bad. Including Zanzi who ZeeeQi threatened multiple times that he would have him banned via PM.
These are the FACTUAL events that took place. Ego is exactly why ZeeeQi and his posse are so upset over this whole thing. As if selling a script for 30 million gold is going to make much of a difference for Muolke in game. It's not. You know who it's going to make world of difference for? I'll let you take a guess.
I mean common.. being the best at an old video game, and monopolizing a virtual world economy (that doesn't make you any thing in RL), is like fighting for the front seat, on a Special Ed short bus...
