True... if the dude has a title like that, that means he out-defrauded all other opponents and won the serverwide Scammer BOTB competition back in 2014.

I don't particularly care about the loss of the items. It's just pixels after all.
Yet you posted in Server Chat, R&F, Guild Recruitment, and Auctions?

Surnames can be misleading.

Example: The used to be a viking warlord named "Ölvir the Childlover".

Pedophile, right? I know, I thought the same thing.

In reality it was because he wouldn't let his men impale children on their spears.

Pretty metal.

Hi Hokkus - so sorry this happened. The player messaged us on discord almost immediately because his client crashed and due to current login issues was not able to get back online in time. He also could not remember who he was transferring for.
Here is a SS of the discord message he left. We were working with him to check his logs etc to find out who it was, but I'm glad I stumbled on this thread because we can try and get it sorted out.
Please PM me on Discord (Tricket#3577) and we can get you in touch with the player.

PIC: items.jpg

I completely understand your position to be untrusting of someone without this external info, and I'm very sorry that the player happened to be a member of Dawn Believers.

Please reconsider the situation in light of this new info, and I hope you would be reasonable enough not to tarnish a collective based on the actions of one individual.
If it were a true scam, trust me when I say we would do everything we could to remove and blacklist the player, as we have done in the past.

Thank you
-T

I would put in a petition on forums for sure. Hopefully his power just went out tho. It has happened before.
I was close enough

But didn't realize that this is more like... P99's 4chan or something.

except instead of random anons its a shark attack of a small clique that posts here all the time. so he's doubly fucked.

Something tells me this won't be a huge loss for the server.
