That was the consensus myself and other leaders from neutral alliances came up with, yes.

You're welcome to disagree, but the majority of the server (those with influence anyways) agreed.


So you basically went to your allies and people scared of LaF/SoF bullying but not yet at war to confirm that no one was going to keep gang-banging you beyond the one round before you accepted that as a desirable outcome?

Cool beans. :p


We were apologetic and made no attempt to justify it when it happened, we took our licks. But no we won't allow it to be an excuse to take licks in perpetuity. I don't give a fluff what other people think we deserve, they didn't try to do anything more to us over it and if they feel LaF got off too easy, that is the folly of the rest of the server not LaF.

LaF as an alliance, and people as individuals will not apologize repeatedly over the same issue. We've already apologized more than once and if you feel that we need to apologize more, too fluffing bad.

For example Hanlong has apologized more than once, but occasionally has to apologize again when an admin decides they aren't quite done being butt hurt about it yet.

It is ridiculous.

Pang, I never tried to leverage our friendship, I was letting you know that your involvement in these discussions and bickering back and forth is not good for the game as a whole to grow. But it seems like you have no intention of such, and that, is the real disappointment for me, as a returning player.

My only intention was to let you know that, and in PRIVATE messages, which you have now out'ed me for.

I don't make decisions upon FB site access, that's not up to me to decide, another matter of fact was that you were leading another alliance, it's very common for alliances to lock access to ex-members who are leading another alliance.

I don't even want to further discuss that whole scandal, because it doesn't matter anymore, the involved parties are no longer playing, and the community should let the topics slide deep into the background of AT, so new comers don't have to read a hundred threads of people fluffing back and forth.

DOES THIS HELP THE GAME OR NOT?!

Dave, you stated yourself that HLW wasn't banned from the game from the initial wave of posts, is that changed? Let's assume it is.

Let's just say HLW is banned from the game. But you are trying to ban him from running war chats, building tools for LaF, and even banning him being friends with someone who plays the game? What are we playing, Earth Empires or Nazi Germany?



Pang, you went from spewing your spin on this publicly in LaF forums, to taking it publicly on AT. You can have your hate, you can hate how things internally is in LaF. You can either go lead another alliance and war us in game, organize another gang bang, or heck, ban all LaF players because you sure have the Admin access to.

But why post this crap on AT again, DOES IT HELP THE GAME?

Now your spinning that LaF threatened other alliances so they stop hitting us?

This is a war game, if HLW was so mighty god like and owned everything with cheating, then how come LaF has stood our grounds? If HLW's accused cheating prevented other alliances from beating LaF, how come none of the other alliances are beating down on LaF now?


================

TL:DR

Hate LaF? War us over it.
Can't beat LaF? Spam on AT!

Dave : As you demand that someone who has created a dark cloud over LaF (HLW) to be banned from our site, exiled from REAL life connections.

How do you feel LaF should handle another member who left to lead other alliances AGAINST LaF, who now wants to play in LaF quietly with old friends. But wouldn't stop posting internally and publicly against LaF?


fluff this, I'm out. I came back for a few weeks, but this fluff sure isn't worth my time when the Game Development team seems to be more focused on bickering on AT, or using their access for their alliance.

*smh*

So after reading this entire thread, my take on this is that there are actually NO consequences for cheating or worse in this game.

Sad and really, whats the point. People who do this type of thing poisons the game for the rest of the people who play, and have consistently played clean.

You say its only an online game, but then why bother cheating, accessing databases, ect. Afterall, its only an online game that the rest of try to play with some integrity.

Oh, and last I checked, running war chats in EE is playing EE.

I dont blame Pang for trying to protect his investment here.

This is so fluffing funny to read. Seriously. Wow.

This happened what? 2 years ago? I bet at least 1/3rd of the LaF tag are new members since then and the fact everyone seems so cut up about it just goes to show how good an alliance LaF is and will continue to be in the future. If LaF died a death or turned into a 20 member alliance because of it, I bet nothing would even be said on the issue. But the leadership stayed strong and LaF continues to be the best.

As for cheating, he cheated, he got banned from the game and doesn't play anymore. Isn't that the punishment in line with the rules? The same as anyone else who has cheated to such a degree, they get banned as well. He goes to or did go to highschool with a lot of LaF players, you can't seriously expect people to stop talking over an online game?

You're moral compasses are way off the mark if that is the case and I seriously suggest you seek help.


P.S. Threads like this give our leaders greater focus and goals for our alliance. Keep making them, and they will try even harder to keep us #1.

Just my $0.2.



Success is in the mind. You must believe you are the best and then make sure that you are.

err... the 2 people who cheated don't play any more?

I don't remember hanlong ever running any warchats since he was gone. If you can prove me wrong feel free.

Might want to clue him in.




As for my comments you quoted, I did not say this was "hanlong specific" but its a comment that goes for the entire community.

However, they DID cheat so again, why bother?

While Hanlong's actions were bad, I don't think he should be permabanned for his actions. I don't think it's fair to punish someone for life for a lapse in judgment, not to mention that Hanlong also had some positive contributions to the game like building tools and providing input to some of the very technologies that exist in the game today.

And Pang, LaF did reinstate your council access and don't you now have access to the LaF facebook group? What wrong there was done to you has been reversed and fixed. What more do you want from it?

Any alliance leader worth anything would have done the same had they gotten access to any third party alliance hosting site admin access. It's not breaking any rules of the game. And, it's been done since the very beginning of alliance hosting sites, and still goes on to this day regardless.

MULTIPLE triple crowns? In EE? In the sole interest of popping bubbles, I certainly do not regret reminding you that EVO only got ONE triple crown. The first triple crown EE has ever seen, but one nonetheless. I believe EVO got several double crowns around that time. I think someone needs to read the history board. You HAVE at least kept that up to date since I left, right?
Wouldn't Evo have won multiple ones had LaF not dropped or added members one set? A bit hazy here..

True, but the official game records don't show what truly happened in those rssets. The only records of what happened are kept hidden away in alliance sites. Therefore, it ultimately does not matter.

I missed the part where I was a cheat to be honest. I mean just because you keep on saying it, it doesnt mean its true... I was never deleted or banned despite all the claims by LaF that I was cheating.

I have been an alliance leader for over 10 years, and no i would never cheat, ever just to help out my alliance, i never cheated in Earth2025 unlike most if not 99% of alliance leaders.

And yes, i cant remember what laf leader said it, but yes Hanlong should be permabanned for his actions, he knew what he was doing was wrong before he did it and i bet he thought he would never get caught. His actions were disgusting and i guarantee that his so called apologies meant nothing to him and if he looked back on what he did he would laugh to himself thinking how awesome he was.

Now as i said at the time, i dont think laf the alliance should be punished for his actions, but yes hanlong should never be allowed to play this game again, the same for anyone who cheats, knowing they are cheating and really dont care that they are cheating (eg dont think they will get caught...)

Scode, you have a fluffed up moral compass anyway when it comes to things in this game. Might not be cheating, but in my opinion it may as well be.

Anyway, I will repeat again for all the idiots not getting it. HLW doesn't play anymore. I don't know if he is banned (thats up to pang and qz) but either way he doesn't play, weather through choice or being banned. So there really is no discussion to be had and I don't know why people keep bringing it up like he is making top 10 countries every set.
