Conquer Club

Accused:

King_Herpes
Queen_Gonorrhea
xxxxxxx



The accused are suspected of:

they find doubles games on strange maps with low ranked players, trick someone else clueless into joining using an auto-join link through pm, and then join the game immediately as team #2 in order to force them into a game they are unfamiliar with, and an assumed easy win.




Game number(s):

Game 3482368
Game 3469529




Comments:

in both of these games the players were clueless as to how they got into the game, and in this thread here a player from 3482368 is in the cheating and abuse forum claiming he recieved a pm from king_herpes and was fooled into joining the game:

viewtopic.php?f=5&t=67252&start=0&st=0&sk=t&sd=a

Well done on following this up.

I am intruiged to see how King Herpes will justify this.

farming is not a crime

Tricking people into joining games through auto-link PMs is though, I believe. Firth4eva got done for this a while back.

oh sorry, i missed the point...

thats different i thought they were being accused for asking people to join

but what proof do we have that they send auto-join links via pm?

2 people that ended up in games that they have no idea how they got in them. just clicked on a link that looked like it was to an 'article' and were auto-joined

EDIT: and those are just the two people that had common sense to say something about it in chat, ill bet the other games with those 2 are the same way.

auto link

t-o-m got a weeks forum ban for doing it in chat and the forums

It continuously amazes me how far some people are willing to go to get points. It's like getting the highest ranking possible is what their life is all about.

i'm rather against farming in general, but this stoops to a new low.

duping new recruits and seasoned players into joining a game is cheap and cowardly. not to mention, unethical.

We need the whole messages or links that were sent to these players so we can have the actual proof before we can determine the case. For now this is noted.

really? ?? wow. so since they apologized and nobody will post a pm then it wont be pursued?

no crime reported, no proof given, makes a sound judgement kinda hard, don't you think?

1. i reported the crime
2. there are two people that say in the chat that they did NOT join the game. and an admission of guilt and an apology for tricking them.


are apologies all it takes?? when did this become policy?

No, the problem is that the PMs are not posted here.

thats shitty. oh well.

lancehoch wrote:No, the problem is that the PMs are not posted here.

That's a horrible cop out.

1. The new player made a thread stating he was sent a hidden link to a game he didn't want to play.
2. He tried to post the PM, but does not have enough internet knowledge on how to do so (even when given directions).
3. King apologized for tricking said player.

How much more proof is needed? There's a reported abuse, and an admission of guilt on said report.

Nice to know that simply apologizing will let you get away with deceit. Good standard to set here.

And I guess mailboxes are taboo, so you can't check directly?

The admin have repeatedly stated that they do not and will not check people's inboxes.

Really? Well, my (and not only mine) inbox was not only checked - but even EDITED! I don't need to explain, since everybody remembers it very well...

(I'm not blaming YOU, lancehoch. But you're a spokesman - spokesmen do get a short end, sometimes...)

After one of the games that Herpes duped someone into joining:

2008-10-20 12:42:10 - King_Herpes: Hit me up Paul, for a game or if you need any advice. Thanks, you are someone I can trust

This is pathetic how they are sucking up to not get reported from people who don't know better.

Man! You guys are sure laying the gravy on thick. Save some for the rest, would ya?

I am having a private conversation with lancehoch about this issue. A possibility that I'm wrong showed up. It's still open at the moment, but (you all) take my optional apologies, just in case I'm wrong...

EDIT:
It's already virtually sure that I'm wrong. So my apology stands...

it's true. without the pm there is no evidence. all you can do, right now, at least, is foe's list. if you're interested. or go to flame wars. i think you can do that.
