lock all the dam complaint threads before the felon gets to respond to them? Its sad for the fact that people assume so many things, take things 20 miles out of context then don't give the opportunity for one to defend himself. The reason for the complaint section is to get a formal argument or debate about a subject matter and for the moderators to look at it. There goes 1/3rd of the purpose, lets just inst-a-lock every thread and put a removal date 12 hours after the post, in the morning, on a weekday and situated during the off peak hours. Sounds like a plan. And guess what, I'm past my due-time to remove my contraption by 10 hours. Sucks. [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q7SPcDMgck0[/youtube] my fps went down from 200 to 20 too, omg! Secondly, its not a swatstika, i had to find the most compact version possible (I spent 10 minutes looking through my history for this): [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iVUnoZC9Oes[/youtube]
I left it open for you. Others started posting, I needed to lock it before anything could have gotten out of hand. You are not in trouble. I watched when you were last on, you had not been on by that time. You're fine. [:
I understand that you didn't mean for it to be a swastika - someone pointed out your machine thing a couple days prior to the complaint, and said it looked like one. That was the problem; people can see it wrong and make a fuss. For some people it can drop FPS. Depends on computer specs. Since you hadn't been on by the time I set, you are fine; don't need to worry. It needs to at least be shut off, though (which happened when server got slow) and probably removed to prevent people freaking out over what it looks like. You're not getting banned or anything just because you couldn't get on by the time I posted.
Still you did not give a single reason, good or bad for making an annoyance machine in a shop at the spawn store. All you posted here is that you lost alot of fps too, which seems to support that making it was bad for server lag. I suggest the policy of locking them once they are dealt with stay the way it is, as this proves there is nothing of value to be gained from leaving it open.
So, if I post a complete bullshit complaint about you, provide staged evidence, there is no value in you defending yourself, is there?
You lost me, so are you claiming that you did not make an annoyance machine at your spawn shop and post a sign telling people they could pay you $40k to remove it? If someone went to the trouble of doing all that, my first thought would be wow they really hate you to spend that much time doctoring mc screenshots, my second is why didn't you say that from the start? I am just baffled as to why you haven't said, yes I did this but here is why, or no someone hacked my pc and did all this crap to make me look bad. What was staged, and what was made up? Did you or did you not make an ANNOYANCE machine at spawn for sole purpose of annoying people and bilking them out of money, which is a douchey thing to do correct? Its not hard to answer that but in two posts in this thread you made to defend your good name, I have not seen it answered, in fact you seem to be avoiding the entire point.
Anyways, I made the annoyance machine as a joke, but to also bring wandering people into my store. Its marketing. I don't make my store out of dirt. I make it out of diamonds. It catches the eye, and in this case I'm also catching their ears! The sign was obviously a joke, do you think I expect someone to fork over 40k to get it removed? Lol.
Congrats on decorating your spawn store with diamonds, however I still don't find your joke funny or see how you expect most people to not misconstrue it as extortion. You made the mc equivalent of a talking flashing ad on websites that make people want to leave the site immediately and never return. Also your other "joke" that you got a temp ban for involved people looking around your shop for a sign that would give them money if they clicked on it when the only working one gave you "donations", for suprisingly the exact same amount you said you were handing out. The object of these jokes is pretty blatant, so can we cut all the bs about pretending to be misunderstood and things being taken out of context? If I was the only person this seemed obvious to I don't think they would have to asked you to disable it or give you temp bans for playing them. Next time you want to play an actual joke tell people asking for money or free items to go to the dark alley near spawn where people give each other netherwarts for free. Bonus points when they ask you to show them where the dark alley is, triple points if you give them a netherwart and can now proudly proclaim you gave another player netherwarts.
