Gabe86 Money Appeal

[Gabe86]

When: N/A

Who: N/A

Reason Given: Hour farming

I had posted this appeal a few days ago, however I got a reply from Hit that I wasn't satisfied with. I haven't managed to get a hold of her via pm, so I am forced to repost, hopefully this time there will be better communication.

I have a hostile mob trap, which generates loot for me. Nobody told me that I couldn't make one. Often on the chat I would talk about the farm, and no ops stopped me. After the trap was built, several ops even came over and complimented it. Finally I decided to test it out, and told everybody who was online that I was going afk to collect loot. Nobody told me not too, i got a few goodbyes and good lucks for my loot collecting from the other people online. I specifically remember my Aurei's were in the 680's at the time.

When I came back on, I found that I had been kicked, and my account was subtracted money. Hit_girl told me that i hour farmed, so the Aurei i had gained from hour farming were deducted. However, my account was deducted way too much money, and I was not hour farming.

I had over 680 Aurei. For fairness sake, let's use 680. When I came back online, I had 450 Aurei. That's a deduction of 230 from my Aureus count that I had before I went afk. I still think that I should be allowed to go afk to collect loot from my loot farm, however Hit told me not to do that anymore, so I won't.

I have the utmost respect for Hit_girl and I think hit's one hell of a trustee. However, I simply cannot let this go. If I were to be deducted Aurei for hour farming, then take the Aurei i gained while being afk. Why take Aurei i had earned from hours and hours of hard work? This may not seem like a lot of money to some, but it's the gesture. I feel like that money was a symbol of all the hard work and dedication I have put into that server. Not to draw the sympathy card here, but I earned that money. That was my money. Now it's gone.

Please, please give me back the 230 Aurei. I apologize for any inconvenience, however I felt like this had to be done.

Aurei is already plural. The singular form is aureus.

Its a real thing.

Thanks Haf

I apologize for not replying to your PM, I genuinely forgot.

Lets clear one thing up - the mob trap isn't a problem in any way, its a neat idea & I'm all for it. As I previously stated, intentional or not you were hour farming, fair enough you may have innocently been collecting loot from your mob trap but unconsciously you were hour farming.

Having said that, clearly somewhere along the lines I miscalculated a figure & deducted more Aurei than necessary thus I'm happy to reinstate 150. This is the best I can do, I shall now tell you why.

If we were to let everyone go afk whilst unknowingly they're gaining Aurei, then soon the whole economy would just be pointless. Not only that, but this Aurei was not 'hard earned' the best way to describe it is free payment; this is why I believe some form of punishment is needed to stop others from doing it in the future.

Appeal: Accepted
