Feeder

[navymom]

I got this message from V. He wanted me to post this.

Account: zebrahives [id: 19092]

I saw 2bil+ in his account, farmed it, Saw another 2 bil+, farmed it again, saw another 2bil then thought it was a bit sus..
and spied on him every time i saw a large amount of naq pass through his account.. none of the naq that passed through was spent on anything at all.. he has no stats other then some measly attack..

After I questioned him he said:

\"I just build up turns and when i get a bit of time off work i farm. Usually i just mass random ppl for the hell of it, but i have never really gotten into Q like i did in main, although i dont really play main much anymore either. And i have given naq to ppl before but i dont really have many good friends on here so i wouldnt say i feed ppl\"

Followed by:
\"Ill feed you some naq if you do something amusing like mass rank 1 or something lol\"

An offer I refused of course... lol
I think someone who is feeling threatened by Fearless wanted me to weaken him a little, and possibly myself at the same time...

Personally I think there should be a full investigation into this account, and the accounts that he has fed.

If he has been feeding the account should be eliminated and IP should be banned.
Accounts who had arranged to have been fed should have their accounts suspended/eliminated and IP\\\'s banned..

Hmm ok now if you look at the post that i did about someone who i thought was a multi...he farmed with like 18k turns and was hitting for stupid amounts like 30m and had no stats whatsoever and 70b worth of defense weps...

Even though this dude probably has 'fed' people before that isnt actually cheating by him or anyone he has fed.

I mean maybe it should be checked out but 2bil is only like 10 tabs worth of attacks and i just spied him and he has just a few weps (maybe 10b worth) which is pretty normal for accounts with small banks...and he has a 6k UP or something so he is at least playing a bit

If i were to feed someone i would want to make it look like i wasn\'t feeding.. so i would have a sizeable UP, about 6-10k, and a few weapons, likewise (and hippy would know this) if their bank accounts aren\'t big enough they buy weapons to sell at a future point. since this recent post someone has either sabbed him, or he has sold his weapons (presumably to feed someone)..

I know 2-3 billion hits (about 10-12billion from five consecutive hits) isn\'t a lot but it is still higher then the average player\'s farming income and gives whoever is fed an unfair advantage. 2billion hits compared to 200million hits is a huge advantage at this stage in the game. In his reply he admits \'to giving naq to some people\' (saving up some naq then channeling it off to another player/s), i.e. feeding, whichever way you want to look at it.
Feeding which he admitted to. If there is an account which is partially active, it will have an ok UP and some defence, but then if it decides to feed people it is still feeding. It still deserves to be investigated further.

Woo! I have my own forum account now, no need to post through proxies.

Basically from the messages that I received it's obvious that he has fed players, massive amounts or consecutive large amounts (amounting to massive amounts) doesn't matter.. feeding is feeding, even if the feeding method differs to what hippy is accustomed to observing..

who do we contact to investigate it?

FEEDING IS LEGAL

Just to make sure we understand each other. Admin does not ban people for feeding. It is a legitimate tactic in his view. There is no point accusing someone of feeding.. nothing will be done about it by admin. If you want to punish them.. then by all means sab the crap out of them.. or try and find who the person getting fat is. But admin will not ban them

FEEDING IS NOT CHEATING it is just frowned upon.

(sorry for absence, was away raving over the weekend, forgot to get cover)

I wouldnt bother if you are gonna accuse him of feeding...even if he admitted to feeding people, as sleepy and i said...that is not against the rules

[5forV]

Serious? It should be made illegal... it's basically cheating..

So what you're telling me is I could phone up my friends tell them to play quantum, and get them to be active players but feed me 75% of their naq.. It's not multi-ing, it's only feeding (ie. multi-ing through proxies...)

Sigh, shouldn't be a legitimate tactic..

Thanks for the clarification, guess you can lock this topic now..

You cannot attack accounts exiled from the community. They do not exist, as far as this reality is concerned.

tell me this when i attack it . Could be banned for multying?

[High Empty]

yeah a few were.

but hardly all of them
