... With a bank like that, for all you know, the donated items are being pocketed. This is worse than lightning.

I know I wouldn't donate to that.

Related, I keep meaning to ask this - presumably some people covered under EU rules have exercised this option. Does anyone know an example of what that looks like? Is the user profile for that ID blank, a 404, or even is the ID reused the next time someone signs up? Do their posts disappear? What about the dragons, are they just auto-exalted, or if not, same question about what happens with those dragons' IDs? And what about the thing where all the dragons a user exalted are still tied to their account (which we know because all your old exaltees change pillars when you change flights)? As someone said in that thread,

"It makes sense for a site whose code isn't built to delete accounts, though. Where would the dragons on a deleted account go? It would mess up exalt counts, offspring/parent lists, and so on."

I'm curious.

No need to tell us how much money they have, anon, but was the bank total at least shown on the sheet? Hiding old rows might just be because they've poorly organized things and didn't want to scroll down to add new transactions.

so we can see how much treasure and gems we supposedly have but when you look at the sheet we also get a lot of negative transactions. labeled as bank purchase things for -840k, -1.425mil, -960k they dont list what the purchase was because again that might let someone know what items we have in stock.

there are some big ones for gems too of -5kg. but we also have notes like brew for the bank -100k so i dont get why they can label 100kt but not 5kg

someone did the calculation and embers have access to 'view' 9% of the bank because 'someone might see it out of flight' or 'details can be leaked' friend donated x25 noc eggs and doesn't know if they sold/were hatched/used for prizes

i dont know where my battle stone donation went but two ambush isn't much

AA did bring in new blood in December 2021, but barely anyone that join managed to get any of their ideas through and was mostly asked to help keep the already set events going instead of adding new things.
AA seemed interested in having new things and wanted to do a more active Dom but apparently couldn't get it going.

When it comes to the banksheet, they honestly thought that all flights had the sheet hidden. But after asking other flights they decided they would be more "transparent" but instead of just making the sheet open to the public right away they took quite a long time to make it _partially_ open to anyone.

When it comes to the discord toxicity: Yeah there's been a lot of issues with the first fire server.
There was a reason someone actually started a NEW and ONLY FIRE discord server.

IIRC wind and plague don't share bank totals either, (but I could be wrong) so that's not that weird, but I'm glad I'm in a flight that gives full transparency on everything.

I can't answer the specific, but that bolded part doesn't make sense.

UN: They can be changed to something like Deleted#####
ID: Not reused, just taken up by the Deleted#####
Post History: Potentially the hardest issue, because do you just straight up delete everything, or just change all posts to blank, but leaving threads that user started?
Dragons: The easiest thing to deal with. We already have the solution: exalt them. Just auto exalt every dragon on the account. Sure, it might give a boost to dominance, but it would be a one time event and I doubt it would affect it much. Exalt pillars wouldn't matter because that account would forever stay in whatever flight they are in when they deleted the account.
Profiles: Just completely wipe it. Make it look like a brand new account that hasn't even created their progens.
Items/Currency: Just straight up delete it.

fuck! the old discord was bad! There was a lot of crap that was rug swept. art theft, harassment about g1's, XXX art in the non XXX thread, ppl being told to kill themselves, jokes about someone getting r'ed, users who should have been banned never getting banned, people oversharing in the vents thread, the certain users trying to relate anything to politics to pick a fight was the worst for me. someone posted about the new hatchlings they had and this user would pop in and be like it sucks that fr doesn't have an abortion scroll or button in case you didn't want those dragons hated them so much

the fire only discord is really different though it is a bit quieter but it also feels like a very safe place. mods (multiple mods too) are active and respond quickly. the dm's of the mods are open too which is really nice? like I enjoy being able to reach out to them. ALL the mods are active in the new server not like the old one where 8 people can ping the same and not get any sort of response for 2+ days.

in the old one we sort of self mod where we ran the one who made the r'ed jokes out of the server. need more of the new mods energy in dom too

it was super funny though. new fire only server made to make a safe place for everything, dragon sharing/lore shares, whatever. no one on the aa with the bank funds joined the new server. none of us know the drama that tipped the mods of the new server over an edge but they tipped and i love them for it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

glad i will be back at school for FF though the ping for raffle attendants went out earlier today. we haven't had any organized effort to store leveled fodder and the aa is treating it like a profit push like we do EVERY festival. i have 25 spots but i can grind a lot...but i have no where to put the dragons.

No prep has been done for FF

If fire doesn't have dom for FF do not blame anyone but fire. We JUST got the ping from organizers about staffing the FF spreadsheet for the raffle. All throughout WW there was no direction on group effort storage or a number of things that needed to be done

FF this year stands for FUCKING FINALLY!! 2 days prior to push we ping for raffle acceptors. No pre-stores from WW/any dom efforts. No reminder pings 'hey, store up hatchlings/lv7+'

FodderArt was done so go check that out I guess? Thanks artists for being more organized than anyone else!

The new Fire Server legit saved Fire from being the worst flight for me. Mods that are active, that care, that talk to their flight, and make the effort to keep everyone updated on events - in and out of flight. The mods in the new server have really made it a wonderful place.

To compare to the old Fire server, there was one player that gifted me a rather expensive item that I never asked for and never wanted. They said, they told me, I could sell it for something else I wanted. This was done publicly on the server.
I sold the item in order to obtain something I did want and proceeded to be dragged through the mud both in DMs and in the server for "breaking the trust" of this player.

I bit my tongue about it so as not to cause drama for months until I found out this player was doing this to others as well. So I sent the screenshots of the evidence to hopefully get this player removed from the server. The Dom Lead, who doubles as our ONLY active mod in the old server, decided that the screenshots of evidence were not solid enough to give them the boot. Our Dom Lead didn't care that this was an issue, that there were screenshots from within the server of me going through this. It took our only other mod (who is primarily inactive) to kick that player out.

This is just one example of how little our Dom Lead cares about their own Flight. The Anon above me hits more of what else the lead just conveniently ignores. I'll say, if our Lead is busy with real life, own up to that and step down to let someone else take the reigns. There are still minors who play this game and if you cannot be responsible for properly moderating a server, you should not have that position of power. For Heaven's sake, a player joked to a pregnant player about they should lose their baby. What happened? The FLIGHT- the player base- had to step in with that mess.

Fire Dom has so many problems and it starts from the top.

this is not normal, right??? there aren't other flights out there with nsfw channels in their main/dom discords, right???? right??????

There shouldn't be. I heard one of the Flights - Light maybe? - got theirs temporarily pulled over that. Mods come down hard on linking servers with nsfw channels.

the thought of wanting to share NSFW in a general FR discord is so foreign to me. the 2 FR discords im in are constant reminders of FR's age requirement cause it's always kids being mildly annoying about something or other. why would u wanna upload tits and balls there lmfaooooo

Yikes bro... If the first Fire server is advertised somewhere on FR itself and it has a NSFW channel, that's flat out against the rules. If you're going to advertise a server on FR, it can only have content that would be allowed on FR itself, and a porn channel... ain't that.

I know which player you're talking about. They found out I was saving for this G1 and I was SO close to buying it. I only has 150g left. Well they bought the dragon 'for me' but paid more than what I was going to pay for the dragon. They bragged about how much they spent on the dragon to everyone and kept asking how I was looking after the dragon. They wanted me to make it a Banescale because that's their favorite breed and that's the breed the dragon should be since THEY bought it for me. They also tried to pick out the genes I used for it as well.

I got sick of it and gave the dragon to a friend and sent the user what they'd paid on the dragon so it could just end there and be done. No more harassment, dragon isn't with me and I paid them what they bragged they bought the dragon for right?

Wrong.

I was cruel for re-selling the dragon, how could I do this with a gift they gifted to me, didn't I have any respect for them. 'Oh I know who I won't be gifting this dragon to! Not after the last time!'

I didn't ask for them to buy the dragon for me. I was working on buying it myself. I wanted to make sure that I did it on my own and when I didn't get to do that, it ruined the dragon for me. Anytime I posted a dragon, they would PM me and ask if I needed help buying it or not since it 'takes me a long time to get the funds'.

The user would constantly lord it over me that they had bought my dream dragon and I'd 'gotten rid of it'. It happened in PM's on discord when I stopped posting and then she got upset I blocked her on FR. She complained to people that I had taken a gift dragon, 'resold it' and blocked her. Always left out that I paid her 5kg when I was only going to buy the dragon for 2.5kg because she offered the seller 2x what we had agreed on.

I don't post dragons I'm interested in now unless I own them and are fully gened which bothers me because I like sharing the evolution of the dragons as I get them. That user ruined sharing dragons for me. Being told I sound ungrateful by the mod ruined fire for me.

HAH! I know this person. They randomly DMed me about my BSJ submission saying “Oh I love your BSJ submission but it will never win because the colors are too dark- love your art though!” or something along those lines, very passive aggressive. (I submitted it btw and I got it back first try with no denial for me to fix the apparent “dark areas”).

They also were passive aggressive towards me about a particular special ID dragon. Had very few digits, and I personally as an ID collector, love dragons with special IDs like that. They mentioned they were looking to give them to a good home, I naturally asked about it, and got shut down with “only to people who i trust *squinting eye discord emoji*”. The fuck? Why fucking post it then lmfao. Apparently this person makes people go out of their way to gain their “trust” and shit from what i’ve heard- so these posts don’t sound too far off from this person.

To keep it short: Ik who you are talking about and they are bad vibes all around. I’m glad they are not in the OOF Fire Discord anymore and if they pop up anywhere else I am punting them far away from me.

38428 ID going by lucara atm, was tamaska.

Fire Discord has a loot share where people can share what they got that day. It can be dragons, apparel, sold auctions, accents, everything. I showed off that I bought 2 will o' the ember's because I'd saved up enough for them. I had been working on getting them and got some good tips from other users on the server so I posted the screen shot of the 'purchased will o' the ember's' and I was excited. They were playing when the embers were released and had been prior to that too. I found out she had played for far longer than I had in that moment because she decided to brag about the collection of embers and how cheap they were when they first came out. She can't believe how much I paid for them and that was a mistake right? Could I get a refund? and she laughed at me.

I was 2 months into the game at that point. I moved to a new flight and then a few months later she moved to my new flight. So I'm waiting to see if I can't move to get away from her again or if I should just restart with a new account somewhere else. This sucks. I don't want to be involved in flight activities because I don't want to cross her path again. I moved to get away from her and she followed!!

anyone got screens/proof?

(Anonymous) 2022-08-20 02:03 pm (UTC)(link)
what the fuck. While looking through this thread I had decided to block the person, but this is someone I've been friends with for years. I'm not trying to question anyone's honesty at all, but it's really difficult to hear and believe this kind of thing about someone I've known for so long. Again, to reiterate, I am not saying this person is innocent, only that it's difficult for me personally to wrap my head around since I've known them for so long. I know it sounds like this is old drama, but does anyone have screenshots/other proof of any of these incidents?

They might move to Earth next as they tend to target “wealthy” flights so they can rub their wealth in everyone’s face but also get free stuff in return. They joined the Earth Flight public server for all flights and jokingly threatened that “no one’s wishlist is safe.”
