Ben. I'm going to voice this now and see if anyone else agrees with me. I feel that it is VERY shady that Heaven's Gate Det. Agency won the last treasure hunt. The character "intra", (not ".intra" or "intra.",) seems to have joined their agency long enough to have gained the treasure, and then retired. Now, while I don't mind an agency getting a treasure, I DO mind when it looks like there was quite a bit of suspicious play around the gaining of it. I don't know whether the current directors of the HGDA made up new characters, paid for them, and then were trying to get rid of the evidence? Or if there were some "mercenary" character out there, who just picks random names out and solves cases for favors for a random reason. However, I must say I'm very displeased with this occurence. I don't know how much I can really do here other than to voice myself.

Thank you for clarifying Ibragimov.... I appreciate it... it did have me concerned that someone in our staff may have made you feel unfortable.

**sigh** What happened to playin rpg games for the fun of it?? Maybe I am getting to old

i am sorry for what i did, i just wanted to try and see what happens, well thats my problem always i try everything.

There certainly is some shady business going on...detectives under 10 days with HUGE experience points, agencys with two members getting treasures left right and centre... i guess the decent players will stay and the cheaters will get bored eventually..i know i certainly don't have the time to run more than one charcter and save up cases and things like that..

My point was...I didn't have a problem with the first treasure you all got, because I understand with the saved favors how that worked. I did have a problem with you creating new players to add to your team for the SOLE purpose of saving favors. That's just messed up....

stop talking about me, im not gonna explain for what my friend did we are three different people, im online the most. and its just a game so have fun.

even if he did that im not proud of it and if you think about it this way he didnt cheat.

so he created a new guy and paid its his loss but to get a favour he had to play at least 3 cases at that level and then join the crew and do the favour so its not cheating he still had to play like others to get that

for second hunt he couldnt save the favours cause it was taken off. we had already 8 out 0f 10 favours saved before it was taken off so we woulve won anyway cause we had everything.
he just made a stupid mistake and couldnt wait for us to come back

wasnt that the purpose of saved favours option,, to save favours what u get

Aug-20-2004 07:23

Looks like a good decision from Ben came about after these events... No more saving favor cases..

Now all that needs to be done is fix it so that there can only be 1 detective per actual real person within a single agency instead of all these twins and triplets who are hanging around ;)

well that wouldnt be fair cause we pay for the game and if we wish to play together we should be able to, if this was a free game then i wouldnt have a problem

how about not letting the SAME IP address join the SAME agency? hehehehe that way you can have as many people as you like..and it means you can't help yourself out.. just a thought! :D
