    Lightbulb GROSS PLAYER IMBALANCE PROBLEM FROM HEAVY Credit Card Users RUINING Entire Servers

    I am sure that this problem pertains to a lot of servers in the Tynon gaming universe. But we apparently got a kid with an ultra wealthy family that's given him a credit card and he's buying 10-20 coin chests a day and also talking his guild members into giving him their account log in info so he can "give them free gems and coins" to "help the guild". Frankly I think he may have hacked the gem server code or is using prior accounts he talked into getting log in info from to use their credit card info to buy gems....

    At any rate, the problem is that just a few players who throw a ton of money at the game are completely dominating the game play and destroying the fun and satisfaction in developing characters. It's really creating lopsided play and making it impossible to prevail in guild wars, pirate sailing, PvP, Arena etc. etc. It's a moral buster and people at some point just drop out of game play and we have fewer and fewer active players to interact with.

    Possible Remedy:
    1) Could you let players request character reassignment to other servers with perhaps some penalty (loss of rank/title etc.) to do it and prevent lots of spurious jumping around?
    2) OR, could you create special servers where ultra high might players can migrate to so the rest of the server play can be more normalized? Maybe even create a "vanity" server where one is auto-progressed (or their power cap is frozen at a certain level) to the elite-class server once they have achieved a certain threshold?
    3) Only other alternative I can think of would be to give us a handicap system.

    I am not against credit card players at all but some are really going to the extreme with it and completely ruining entire servers and forcing many to leave/abandon their accounts.

    Hmm. No offense, who who's money is it? Is theirs, whatever they wanna spend it on- so be it, plus, many people work hard, or are retired peeps, or yes, they're kids with rich parents who gives to these kids the money.So what? Their money, their issue. Plus, thanks to all the VIP users, players that can't afford to buy VIP get to enjoy the game for free, as basically, the VIP are paying for their game-play. Is called a "free-rider" (economics)

    PS- I'm VIP4.

    Boro did you even read my comments with comprehension? Why did you have to take this down the same old tired and irrational path of "we need VIP players to pay for the non gem players" line of dialog when I said CLEARLY that I have nothing against VIP play right up front?? WHAT I SAID is there is ABUSE in this category where some are completely dominating with massive amounts of spending - many thousands of dollars and creating a whole new super class of user that utterly DESTROYS entire servers in a TYRANNICAL and ABUSIVE WAY. There is a HUGE difference in concept between paying to participate and play verses PURCHASING the server to become The Server God and DESTROYING all game satisfaction for the rest of the people so unlucky to set up an account on that server to run into this nonsense. If people have the option to relocate and let the miscreants who want to destroy game play for everyone "play with themselves" (and you can take that in the self abuse sense) alone while everyone else relocates then let them have all the fun they want alone buying the entire server and pretending to be demi-gods with no subjects who want to submit to that BS. VIP4 - VIP 6 is one thing but VIP 10+ is owning the server and bullying everyone into just abandoning their accounts for wasted time...

    "WHAT I SAID is there is ABUSE in" this category where some are completely dominating with massive amounts of spending - many thousands of dollars and creating a whole new super class of user that utterly DESTROYS entire servers in a TYRANNICAL and ABUSIVE WAY. "

    How is spending money abusing? Is pay-to-win, not paying to abuse. I don't see that it destroys any server, in fact, it does not.It does the positive- From a business point of view, as well from a player.

    "There is a HUGE difference in concept between paying to participate and play verses PURCHASING the server to become The Server God and DESTROYING all game satisfaction for the rest of the people so unlucky to set up an account on that server to run into this nonsense."

    There's no difference, only difference I see is people that can't spend (for whatever reason it is) always complaining when VIP users get the top notch. Isn't this the whole point of purchasing gems? To become the God of the server and to dominate as much as possible? If you think having a paying costumer is nonsense..

    "If people have the option to relocate and let the miscreants who want to destroy game play for everyone "play with themselves" (and you can take that in the self abuse sense) alone while everyone else relocates then let them have all the fun they want alone buying the entire server and pretending to be demi-gods with no subjects who want to submit to that BS.

    This wouldn't many any difference. Tynon will just start closing down server and only keep and/or merge the servers that are alive and making cash. Abandoning what accounts? This will just make other users be VIP.

    Is the game of the mechanics and economics- supply and demands, needs & wants.

    I just don't get your concept of "bullying" the players if you're VIP. What are you talking about? Is money, money talks!

    When money say "Boro!" I say "Yes, massa!"

    The same happened on server 14. A kid came in, bought vip8, destroyed the server, bullied everyone to a point most just quit and then left after 2 weeks of playing. It is a shame.

    It would be great if they cap the purchase amount since they don't want to lose the balance on a server to a reasonable amount.
