Splinterlands: Community Proposals for Tournament Changes

So apparently the solution is, more band aids on top of more band aids on top of more band aids. Wow, so greatness! Let's not bother focussing on the root cause and issues. Just leave the obvious flaws and bad actors/manipulators, entirely out of the conversation.

This is all completely useless bullshit that won't do a single fucking thing to fix anything, which is really the responsibility of the devs who deliberately fucked it up in the first place. Why did they fuck it up deliberately? It's fucking obvious why, as they and their "friends/largest investors" benefitted from it immensely in an unfair manner, and will forever based on earning from what they took from the player pool, that does not belong to them - and you damn well know it. Remember the reward pool rape days, and how it was a personal crusade of the biggest hypocrites in this game now? You just prefer to shut your fucking mouth now, and eat from the same trough as the pigs, cheats and two-faced thieves and scamming/cheating two-faced liars who are now virtue signalling with solutions, of which were already proposed long ago by others.

The result at the time, was mocking those people and calling them names because of their "peasant" standing in the controlled discord server they call a "community". What a wonderful and controlled circle-jerk we have here. Approved members accepted only. And by approved members, we all know that means the biggest wallets, with the biggest self-interest and most importantly "access". It's all a load of complete and utter crap that is going to end up helping the same dipshits in the end. The solutions have to come from "approved members only". It's a nice club, congratulations for having exclusive access.

Besides, you would never call out some of those bad actors, because you are now way too "invested" to say it like it is, and those bad actors are some of your bested "friends" and @bestpartnerever. They seem to do a lot better than most around here, especially as they have a perfect 3rd world slave who has both manipulated matches/results and cheats with absolute impunity at any opportunity they get, with the full knowledge and planning/encouragemnt of their master @bestpartnerever, for a very long time now. You are fully aware of this fact too, but deliberately defend, cover up and shield them from any criticism at every possible opportunity, even when it goes against the "principles" you apply in public to everyone else. It really helps that they are also great "friends" with the co-founder and lead developer of the game, especially when you get airdropped the rarest $10,000 gold card in the game "randomly". There was totally nothing devious about that. They seem to get a lot of "random" favours that go their way. They have this special ability to openly lie compulsively about their "business" and get away with it...I wonder why that is? Of course, they have a special gang with personal protection and bodyguards to protect them from anyone who dares speak of their fraudulent actions.

That pathetic and protected/shielded hypocrite cried openly in the that shithole discord server, because they didn't like some of the "competition", that was doing the same. I guess they are much more attracted to the idea of having a monopoly in that situation. Which is extremely hilarious considering you all first campaigned fiercely in favour of j6969 initially (even when it was obvious what the result of that would be - you were in total denial at the time even when someone pointed that out to you), but then turned on them as soon at the competition got too tough to handle. That is the ultimate hypocrisy that permeated through the zombie brains in that server at the time.

It's very true that some people can't see past the nose on their own face, and will constantly be in denial of certain facts, even when they are presented to them in a way that they cannot be denied. But votes and money for the "special" ones. All their so-called principles go out the window, when it comes to their own self-interest.

This was the proposal as originally voted by the community. But @yabapmatt has suggested an alternative system change that addresses the tournament fee exploit without changing the season resets. He has mentioned that it may be possible to have tournaments check your league at the start of the event and if your current league would pay a higher entry fee than when you signed up, you would have to pay the difference or get booted out of the tournament.

If this solution was already available and able to be implemented, then what was the fuck was the hold up all this time? Were they waiting for their insiders and friends to accumulate as much "free shit", as possible before anything was done about it? Of course. The insider thieves, are now going to fix it all, after stealing everything with dishonest "play", and their "code" advantage and manipulations, that totally screwed the same people you now think you are going to help.

Get you heads out of the sand, and stop pretending that this is going to do anything other than line the pockets of the same cheats, thieves and manipulators, who have accumulated an immense amount of player funds and assets, though dishonesty and fraudulent means. Too bad this game is not truly decentralised, as we now can't go back and extract democratised and old data/information as it is lost in a place where nobody can access it. So much for "decentralisation for the people".

But as is always the case, the messenger of this comment will be attacked (as always is the case in a group think herded mentality) by the hordes of morons, and biggest interests in this game. The virtuous "crumb feeders".

Oh yes! Massive kudos, to the cheat/theft "team". Your so-called awesome "team", is made up some of the biggest original insider thieves who literally stole tens/hundreds of thousands of dollars of other peoples money and assets that did not belong to them, or did not acquire them with their own "investments", like everyone else from the very beginning, and then a whole lot more. Now they are also getting compounding returns on the assets and income they continuously derive, that doesn't legitimately belong to them, as well as all of the loopholes and special access you gave them with their "code". You all new about this, but not only was nothing done about it, it was deliberately kept quiet and covered up, and then you all literally rewarded the theft and cheating by giving some of them team member status AFTER it was made aware to you all (you already knew about it anyway).

That's right. You literally went and hired the worst of the worst of the scumbags, thieves and cheats, even after you were fully aware of their actions. That needed to be repeated. Was this based on some kind of genuine merit system, or something else, considering all of the above? Who the fuck hires people and makes them a part of their organisational structure (and pays them a regular income, while having a direct conflict of interest in-game), when they knew all of this? What was the payoff @aggroed? Are you going to reimburse any of that stolen money or assets back to the "community", (a word you love to throw around as a PR stunt) who funded the cost of it all, and those peoples very existence around here?

To this day nobody has directly responded to the cheating allegations which can be backed up with evidence, that was provided at the time.....of course it was completely ignored and the theft continued, and still does to this day in other various forms because of that special access with "code", to your special class of butt lickers made up of giant stakeholders with big wallets.

Screw you, and your lard brothers who constantly have their tongues firmly entrenched in your butthole and deliberately work in unison to trash and marginalise anyone who dares have a different opinion than others, or asks legitimate fucking questions that you don't want to answer honestly. They even do it on their own podcast, by trying to deliberately tarnish others reputations, and then literally contradict themselves the very next "episode", when the same message is coming from a different, but "approved source".

Funnily enough, when some less revealing and damaging concerns or questions are raised at a much later date by others who are deemed to have "approved opinions" and even team member status, then suddenly you are all on board. Forget about the original messenger - they must be crushed and left aside. As long as you can control the entire conversation and PR, then it's given your stamp of approval. Anyone outside of the "approved for comment status", needs to shut their mouths just in case they mention something we don't like. No problem in allowing the very same original thieves and cheats in taking over and controlling it all, because they are your babies. Some of the same insiders.

You think I'm the only one who believes/knows this? You would be wrong. Anyone who dares question any of this is crushed from the top down, and then all the mindless dipshits just pile on as well, because need votes and money.

When are you gonna write another cry baby post that sounds like a sulky tyrant, while speaking of peace, by way of your absurd "captain's" hypocrisy? You gonna keep throwing ludicrous labels around, because you don't like people outing your bullshit and dishonest tactics with anyone who dares to question your AUTHORITIIIIIIIIIIIIIII.

It's so fucking amusing, that the so-called "anti-authoritarians" and "freedom lovers/free speech advocates" on this platform who live in their glass towers, only care for those principles when it directly suits their own interest, or when others agree with them. Otherwise they deliberately start with the bogus name calling and sniping through their proxies. Just call people the C word, while some literally take things that don't belong to them (because they didn't actually pay for them), and then say anything to keep your lard brothers and so-called "team members" all fat and happy with their special access code and "free shit".

You don't need to be afraid of anything though, because all the gutless cheating/thieving wankers with big stakes and huge wallets will back you up all the way, for obvious reasons. Even the mindless zombies at the bottom of the trough, who don't know any better, will do the same.

You can all now enjoy the spoils at the expense of people who got wrecked by these thieves and cheats - who will continue to plunder this place until the end of time.

Not surprisingly, there is no response at this point. I doubt there will ever be one which speaks volumes in itself.

Well said, lard brother! Except that it's only 3 years too late and many of these types of ideas and proposals have already been made and were dismissed/marginalised when they came from others. But it's not going to do shit, because this is just more band aid bullshit on top of more band aid bullshit, and is only a tiny part of the real problem. However, band aid bullshit, is much preferred to real solutions that can only be made by addressing the root cause at the developer level, of which are completely obvious and known to them. But you know how it works.
