Professor wants DupeRam12345 to stay permanently banned with no 2nd chance even if he offers money.

It's been fun interacting with the community in the forums, I should do stuff like this again.

I guess the lesson is that you shouldn't betray the people who trusted you nor tell lies to your community, as ultimately, you will be forced to face the consequences of your actions.

If I were him, I would close the ArchMc chapter in my life and move on to something greater.

All the best…

Dear Players, 

It's me Zarif, one of the Admins of this server and website.

Recently, there have been many reports against some of our staff members on our team and unrest with the decision to ban certain players. 

Let me tell you how it all started.

Monica, the manager of the server, recently started giving out special deals where players could get items discounted if they bought a certain amount. For example, one of the deals Monica had was buy 4 tags for 80 USD. Normally, buying 4 tags would cost you 120 USD, but since it was in a deal you could save 40 USD. Some players, such as the ones banned (DupeRam12345, 200BoxedLost, and others) have attempted to abuse this system by buying the bundle and then requesting a refund in hopes of getting the regular price refund rate instead of the bundle rate.  This is considered fraud, and since it involves real money, it can be illegal. We swiftly banned these players upon the realization of their abuse. Some players who have been banned have been unbanned after paying the amount of money they frauded in their refunds. That is why there is an unban price for certain players. I've also noticed certain screenshots circulating the forums of Monica using completely unacceptable words. The higher staff and I will have a thorough talk with him about his behavior.

I am open to any valid criticism regarding this situation, I am not perfect, nor are the players involved.

If you have any questions or concerns, please reply below.

Evidence:

1. Monica sends custom tags at a discounted price.
2. 
3. 
4. (Requesting a conversion of bundled custom tags into credits )

no shot we on pg 5 D:|

2ny it isnt fraud having them its fraud asking for full price refunds even tho he bought them from a deal

ye its irl fraud

no its not once again.

i had 2 custom tags for 60 credits and then they doubled it to 4 and i refunded them all….they would have been fine me keeping 4 custom tags but when i returned them to credits they said thats fraud???? that makes no sense try to understand what ur saying godamn

okay okay okay this is having my head hurt so im going to shut up

its fraud bc you gainrd a financial benifit from it

dupe you paid ZERO credits for the free tags you refunded and you explicitly told them you paid THIRTY credits. Therefore, you practically deceived the staff into refunding the tags, which you profited from. If you hadn't told them you had paid 30 credits, you could consider it partially the staff's fault as they failed to realize and notify you.

I thought you were right at first too until I saw Zarif's screenshots.

Again, it was a misconception just like you can sell iron more than for what u obtain it, obv and there was no rule against it, now there is one so he wont do it again_. I will personally make sure of this_

cbd??? he wouldnt have obtained them then XD

holy shit i dont know how you dont understand this bro 

imagine a buy one get one free deal in real life, where you buy 2 items for the price of one. Returning both items for their full price is FRAUD.

F-R-A-U-D

1. The reason i dont understand it because as ive told u Im stupid no matter what my grades say
2. i dont understand anything rn - too much going on so im blinking out on everything

2NY the staff were under the impression that he paid 30 credits as dupe told them explicitly in a message. Therefore, he received the tags because they were under the impression that this was a refund because dupe told them he PAID.

but I really don't know anymore

idk i dont have tabs on dupe- And if i do i dont say anything

So…when you don't understand anything about the situation and the person involved that's when you decide to talk? lol im confused at this point gl figuring it out :)

i had 2 custom tags for 60 credits and then they doubled it to 4 and i refunded them all….they would have been fine me keeping 4 custom tags but when i returned them to credits they said thats fraud???? that makes no sense try to understand what ur saying godamn

ai boblo69 wowww

The problem is not dupe even committing “Fraud” it is rather how he talks to people, he could have just said “Im sorry i didnt know this was against the rules and can we take appropriate measures to fix this, is there anything I can do to fix this”?

Pissing monica off aint going to help
