Arcanium Arena DEAD AGAIN

Looks like we cant even enter Arcanium Arena anymore, the genius' at Gameforge thought they would be smart and ban toons for going AFK in arena (which just allows us to enter arena due to the low populated servers) what they don't realize is most people used alts and played on their other toons... but noooo once again fully lvled toons were banned for being afk. Further to this, the loss of purchased items such as random extractors and puris will no longer be purchased. They even took away the points that the toons had built up over time most which took hours of legitimate game play. All this also occurred after the points system was nerfed.. i dont understand why they would do this, the server is dead once again. Thanks Gameforge for your continued effort to destroy server population. When will they relize that there are not thousands of accounts playing at one time, there are merely a few hundred left and for those that play offpeak, much less again, lucky to have 30 people active, how are these people meant to play Arcanium Arena without having Alts fill up the battlegrounds? Banning fully lvled and fully geared toons for being afk inside Arena is rediculous!!!! But oh well, what would i know.. i'm just a customer, rite Gameforge???

Well from what i have heard, seen around, people were doing AA 24/7 and wonder why they got banned. I used to do AA 12 to 14 hours a day with my alts but manually logging them in one by one all day, i had to go to the bathroom, had to eat also, even had to shower and do errands during the day sometimes. So since our GM's are not mythical creature that are brainless, they probably figured out what people were doing in game.

Also i am pretty sure that if they find toons botting, they can look up all accounts on that same IP adress and send them all in one click on vacation. All the talk of people on how GM's will not find out, they won't waste their time looking for stuff etc, guess what?? seems you might be a good example that they do. We have the same amount of GM's but for 2 servers only in the US, play clean or they will get you, i tell that to my guildies, no matter what, it's not worth it.

Don't blame Gameforge or other players for your mistakes :cookie:

Easy for you to say, you play during peak hours, not all of us have that luxury, as it stands offpeak is not possible to even enter AA without alts sitting there, also it generated interest, gave people reason to spend money on the game and gave us another game to play within the game. Some toons that were banned played many legitimate games, they were afk for the time that other toons were being used, sometimes hours on end. Why dont they fix the issue like make it so that points are required to get any rewards, GF's answer to everything is, "Just Ban people". When everyone eventually quits, they can read back on their forums and see that maybe they could have approached things differently.

Honestly, they should just have an option where you pay say 2-3k dias and they let you move your toon to a server of your choosing. I throughly regret making a toon on US server, and by the time i realised my mistake I had already spent quite a bit in the game and didn't have it in me to start over on EU servers. I mean seriously how hard can it be to move a toon from one server to another? it's not like the US servers are physically in US and people working for GF will physically have to come to US to do said character move. This way the players can decide which server they wish to play on, seeing as how most of them are dead anyways.

Well i guess some people still don't know that the server ARE in Florida!!!! unless Florida detached itself from the North american continent and grafted itself to Europe loll. I know if someone gets banned in game it is not because you were the most legit player of the server, stop trying to impose your views on why it was illegitimate please. The greatest trick the Devil ever had is making us believe he doesn't exist :evil:

When a GM silences me on Mithras, i know exactly why they did it and the reason. The simple answer to this is : You did the crime now you do the time. Accept your sentence and make a ticket to support if you think it was unjustified. :dash:
