Im also not sure why that char is making naq while banned, something smells off.

Ban on blain ended on June 16th.
It is June 19th today, and I attacked on June 18th and 17th. He is also not listed as banned anymore. Please do tell me how is it I'm farming someone that's banned? :roll:

I also did not know why you made some units while you were actually banned, not after you were banned, but during the ban. I already notified Jason about it.

his not on the ranked pages , type his name in he dosnt come up and his marked as unranked......

so im guessing that char hasnt logged on and it bugged in someway, and you thought what the hell I will exploit the fact nobody else can see that char on the ranking page and farm some big naq.

So you gained an unfair advantage over other players that cant see the char, also known as cheated!!

Have you tried typing his ID? ](*,) I couldn't find him by his name so I ran an ID check, like anyone else can. Saw naq out and took it - whether he has logged in or hasn't is irrelevant as anyone can search up someone by their ID and, if they are not banned or on vac mode, attack them.
If you cheat that doesn't mean everyone cheats.

If it was all so simple I think the ammounts of naq would not have been that high for you to take as most are farming anything from 4billion and up. end of the day its a bug and you eploited it.

So you deny that he is accessible via an ID search?
This is the same as farming unknown very good farms with high income - why would you farm them for the same amount of naq as you farm other people if you know that they are going to have more naq out soon and the chances, since it's an unknown farm, that people will find it are slim? That holds true especially for games with more accounts, but heck there are a few good farms on Quantum as well.

I still fail to see any real bug and fail to see how I abused it. It isn't my problem if some think that searching for someone via their account name is the best way to go, as that's a dumb thing to think.

This accusation is a joke and a lame attempt of you getting back at me since you can't really affect me ingame.

I wonder if someone asked admin jason already, whether something went wrong with banned accounts, seeing as their name didn't show up somewhere it should, right ?

So, instead of fueling this topic with accusations and silly explanations, perhaps it should be a bug report ?

Banning by cops being new and all ... I wouldn't be surprised if something needs tweaking after it has gone live.

like, producing the resources ... silly ... sounds like a free ppt

From what I can tell, he started producing resources after his ban expired. That was 3 days ago.

The resources in question here were produced after the user, blain, was unbanned.
The resources that Nitro got when he was banned were approx 70k units if I remember correctly - it happened a day or so after his ban, while he was still banned which is pretty much impossible. I sent you a PM regarding this.

Ah, and him not showing up in search results apparently helped in stacking up resources.
Well, no real intentional harm done then.

Case of the mysterious ban farms, solved.

It would have been a bug report! The person originally noticing it, Jack. But instead thought to himself "why say anything its easy naquida" , its obvious something is not right when it says in writting "Not Ranked".

Ignorance is not a defence.

Yep and I'm gonna ignore this because it's a joke and I don't need defence for this as I've done nothing wrong. People are also unranked when they change their race, for instance, or, on main, when they ascend and a number of other reasons. That doesn't say something is wrong with the game :roll:

They also come back to the rankings when the next turn change rolls over. I'm sorry but as a Game cop you should have noticed after a few farms and reported it to be fixed, not just kept going. It's hardly crime of the century, but i feel anyone given Game Cop powers should be SEEN to be above reproach.
