An apology

Postby Jeep? » Fri Jan 23, 2009 4:36 pm

Recently, some of you may have noticed a 'superweapon' being used by one of the characters on my team in the game, and will have rightly been offended by my creating and using it. I'm not going to prattle on with excuses, so I'm just going to apologise. I'm sorry, guys. I really dropped the ball on this one, and I abused the power you trusted me with. I've let you down, and I'm truly sorry that I allowed myself to hurt the game and the community that I've come to care so much for. I hope you can forgive me for it, but in penitance, I'll be retiring the character who took advantage of this 'superweapon' so I'm not taking advantage of his ill-gotten gains.

Yours,
Jeep

New superweapon? Didn't notice there was one... What was the name?

(I still have Burns hand in my armory, but I keep it unequipped - more so, because it has "none" damage now)

It was the "Radiological Dispersion Device", which I had initially created to test how the game treated one-hit kills, and then went buck mad with, which I shouldn't have done.

It wasn't just JP, I got a little carried away as well.

I was using mine at the time of the day when there were next to no 'Cons around and I needed that little "boost".

Not that it always worked.

So my apologies as well. It was fun, a little too fun, but the fun's been had and things have been learnt.

Sorry from me as well.

First I've heard of this.

Then again, Burn's part of the same faction as I am, and I don't see that many Pred missions lately. Not to mention I don't usually pay all that much attention to the mission logs anyway.

Very nice apology. I never noticed anything, but it might explain some of those questionable beatings from the Preds.

See, this is what happens when you put Decepticons and Predacons in charge. :P. ..Wait, a Con is appologizing for abusing power, so that explains why it's so cold outside :lol: I kid.


In all seriousness, I have no problems with it if it's all in the name of testing. I just say let us help you test :lol:

Well then, as an unaffected outside party I'd say reparations are in order. Give some Energon to the people you slaughtered in the name of 'research' and everything will be fine and dandy! :mrgreen:

It now deals exactly one point of damage per attack now. If anyone actually wants it (who knows, memorabilia), they're welcome to it.
