Since I was away during the past 2-3 days and the topic has move on I will use the quote-reply style...
Let's begin!
i have a question why all moderators and other ..... have salary of 1... diamonds and play in the game ?? its not right this thing ...normally the operators ,admins .etc must bee neutrals not having 100 big alliances and be big bosses in the game and other players put money in the game and bee a small player because what u do they are first ....if this thing will not stop i already give some messages to other players for this thing if they are moderator they must bee neuters
Well what to say?!! First of all lets explain once more some things.
Moderators and translators receive a bonus (not salary) in diamonds. That bonus may be up to 600 diamonds per month for Moderators and up to 800 per month for translators (according how much they have translated).
Other titles the forum accounts have are Community Managers and those are employees of IO and receive salary (in real life money).
And there are the Trusted Members, those doesn't receive anything!
Also there are the people who reply the "ask for help" section with up to 50 diamonds reward per month. But the amount of those diamonds may differ due to lack of questions or other people replied first. Any additional information about each category can been found at forum or ask at a topic about it and we reply.
CMs are not playing the game. There are some test accounts (who are those accounts is secret) that are used from CMs to test the game but they are not playing. After the Beta ended at least.
Why Moderators and the others have to play? Well to know what to reply!!! Can you reply for something that you don't play? Can I ask you for a rule/bug of a game that you don't play and you will be able to reply? Are you serious?
Anyway back to order...
Mods and Trusted Members MUST be players. That way they know and care about the game. In fact I have 1 abandoned account are realm 2 "Crassus" who belongs to a minor guild "peacemakers". Also I have one active account Crassus_M at realm 3 and around 4 or 5 of other accounts with several classes and professions just to test and experience the game from every possible way I can in order to be able to reply to your questions... I believe same applies to other moderators.
Now you are saying about the ethics of a moderator... well I am speaking from personal experience!
When help is requested a moderator is obligated to provide what ever he/she can.
The level of his account aggressiveness or to what guild he/she will belong is up to him/her!
Again the reason? If a mod hasn't loot then don't know/experienced the looting mechanics, if a mod hasn't been to a castle owning guild then he doesn't know anything about castles etc.
You shouldn't think that forum moderator's account and gamer's account are the same! No! At forum we are moderators at game we are one of you! What gives you the right for you to loot me but I shouldn't?? If it was such then we should had an "Avatar" status ingame and none could touch us and we could do anything... But our game accounts are not treated as special!
If a player mod or not dominate a region/realm then it's up to his "skill" & time he is able to spend!
This extends to diamond spending but I will reply for that to the other topic.
That's all for that.... moving on...
There are some mod. here, that help their guild with dark strategy.
For example, a mod. ask at programmers for check the Ip of some players, so they see who can be a spy into their guild.
Really? Did someone asked programmers to do an IP check?
Questions:
1) Who was this mod?
2) How do you know? (Because I am learning about that first time!)
3) Did the programmers gave such information?
3)* if they shared such information then the programmer or CM who did something like that has the problem not the mod (at least not only)...
@Dark well said! If they don't trust the mods right directly pm to CM accounts here at forum....
do-sent matter ..... i say what its truth so shut up little baby because if u was just a normal player u will have the same opinion so shut up because people like you make imperial hero stink a little moderator if u want i gen bring a few fellows of mine to post on this post with the same opinion because Moderators don't let players to play so if u wanna be moderator be neutral in the game or don,t get diamonds for what u do on forum ....and search ip for the spy's in acpx ,zelots, etc ,in ALL ONLINE GAMES MODERATOR ,ADMINS ARE NEUTRALS PLAYERS , why imperial hero do not have the same thing ? tel me the reason ? because u are a moderator with 10000 reset accounts and also have the lead of 2-3 top guilds ??that its the point my child because u are a child for my age.I will wait some one higher then you or robio ....... its must bee rules for those like u u understand that or u are crying not me i just make a point ... u can do what u want but let the players to play and sit still ... all of you if u wanna play become a normal player if u wanna be a moderator just sit tight
Respect rules and other players... I could easily give you some hours ban for that but I will let you this time due to the day...
Also I believe I replied about the reason that you are asking so desperately... The resets are because he much older player than you! Did you ever consider that?
So to understand something... You are ok if I spend some money and buy 3000 diamonds per month but you are not ok if I earn 600?
Seriously? Either you have issues with players who are able to afford buy premium and pay for better items, either you have unjustified issue with us (moderators).
then take all your pg and others staff members and make your alliance and in this way will be a fair game for all of us . i play lot of online games and in all the staff members are observers not involving in the game supporting one player or guild
Well said... STAFF members are OBSERVERS...
STAFF we are not staff dude! we are players!!!
Staff are the CMs!!! And they don't play!!!
As for the guild...
Even if we do something like that I can assure you that there are players who buy diamonds at bigger amounts than we have... So there will be guilds more powerful than us!!! I know players who bought 3000 diamonds with 600 diamonds bonus due to Xmass promotion... and that's just for a month...
Even if I was player I would say the same...
