So you admit that there was an active witch hunt by two unhappy CLs (one who has no part in SA:MP)? Let's call this what it is. CLs unhappy that I was unbanned and looking for any reason whatsoever to get rid of me. Even with my changed attitude and strive to bring positivity, this seems a bit far fetched, don't you think?
You are not as special as you think to be hand picked and be witch hunted just for the lols although that happened in the old times (probably by the same HQ people that broke core community rules), this doesn't happen nowadays. Excusing your shit actions with that also won't work. If you thought that what you did was "LEGAL" as you say or right in a more proper way then why did you try to hide what you did by flooding the purchase action to buy tomato seeds where you could have bought them in bulk in just one second? This just proves you really felt that what you were doing was wrong but you carried it out anyways.
Returning to the witch hunt point, since you haven't noticed already; we monitor the server 24/7. Logs are viewed all the time literally line by line and every player is monitored which is why we can easily find out any fuck up that is done and the result of this is the current good environment that we have. Some would react "EMRGHED wHy SpY oN uS" or "eMeRgHed nOw hE wiLl bAn uS foR hAvInG aN opIniOn". Honestly I don't give a shit about anyone's opinion, if you hate me and wanna shit on me so be it I don't care as long as it stays between you and the circle you talking with and not trying to influence other people. Almost the same goes to regular rule breaks, if you've solved it with the other player why would you want stuff to butt in?
So please, drop this special snowflake attitude and quit this self righteousness, you're just digging yourself a deeper grave. You're shitting on the only people that can unban you.
As for the intentions you spoke about, no one really cares about what you display public. Anyone could sell himself as some angel that wants no bad for someone or something, what really matters is the inside intention which is something you proved yourself, you only had shit intentions and wanted to abuse a script that was not intended to be used like that so you can go over people that are working really hard to overcome the economic crisis we had on the server because of people like you in the past.
Why the CLs are involved you might ask.
I found out about what you did on a regular check and had Brian and Kessu to look into with me since you knew what you were doing and tried to hide what you did (much for your public "good intention" campaign).

No one in his right mind would keep buying one single item over and over just out of boredom for 20 minutes straight. The script clearly offers you to buy in bulk in just one second to avoid wasting time which again shows that you didn't have good intentions at all.
Also, since you checked the logs, did you notice how I was checking profit for almost two hours last night? This is the exact reason why I was doing what I was doing. Not looking to flood the logs or whatever you're trying to accuse me of.
Oh please, quit this bullshit. No one even mentioned the purchase and sale of properties, you were checking every property's profit to acquire the profit that is stored in them from previous owners and that clearly has nothing to do with flooding, buying tomato seeds however... :rolleyes:
If you want to ignore everything I posted above, please just read this piece.
I want to make one thing perfectly clear: I honestly do have better things to do in real life but I spend my time here. This is the place where I retreat from my real life.
In case you didn't know In real life, I'm a CEO of a $x million dollar company in real life. I'm in charge of over a good number of employees. I'm also married and a father of two kids.
My time is limited and I only use it on what I think is important to me. I spend my time on Argonath because it's important to me.
I don't care, not my issue.
Again. I feel personally attacked and witch hunted. I used what I legally received for my advantage legally. Had I done something more evil, like exploit an actual bug or something similar, then the ban is justified.
If we're being honest, it seems like this is vendetta against me being unbanned by Aragorn instead of going through the channel where I was told no for several months (over 9 months).
wRONg again. I was free to decide whether to unban you or no from SA:MP, if it was a vendetta the CLs would have community banned you back on the spot but you're only banned on SA:MP for something you did on SA:MP to gain advantage over others from spawned stuff.
If you read it carefully, this was a welcomed change by many players. It meant the server could move forward. I then have donated slowly over $500+ USD for this cause. This resulted in these items being provided to me. With the money given, Teddy started to turn the server around. It's also an open secret but SEVERAL HQ members spawn money for themselves in the past. Devs also spawned money for various causes just to keep things going.
Again, I feel the ban was unwarranted and at best, grasping at straws. I personally believe there is a conspiracy to get rid of me due to my polarizing (and rather open) views. I have no shame in calling out things as they are - bullshit. If you wanted to get rid of me, just tell me directly instead of going through this whole route of witch hunting ("reviewing logs everyday just to make sure everything is 'okay'").
You have no shame in calling out things as they are (although wRONg there's no bullshit) you also have no shame by trying to justify a major rulebreak you've committed and still covering it up and lying with useless excuses. If we wanted to get rid of you, I wouldn't even have allowed you back in. You were unbanned from the community and you were told to make an unban request on other servers if you wanted to access them in which you did so enough of that excuse either.
I used a system that existed for its intention. These items were not removed from my inventory
You used a system that's supposed to give people a discount of 80k from buying vehicles not to spawn 15 millions with 400+ vehicle vouchers that were spawned.
I used a system that existed for its intention. These items were not removed from my inventory - the same way how Khm was able to use his access to sell weed and make money to purchase a farm, a PnS, and other stuff rather quickly after the reset. As others have noted, some other players ALSO used similar methods (past existing items in their inventory) to gain some money back.
Again with the bullshit, I did not use "my" access, I'm in a criminal group like anyone else and did the same thing as anyone else. The reset only removed money, properties and SPAWNED items that I had to manually fetch and the amount of shit that I found on you is more ridiculous than the vehicle vouchers and they were again spawned, not reward crate gifts.
Now, if the issue is with the amount itself and that it could potentially fuck up the economy or somehow give me an advantage - this is a moot point. The economy is already fucked by default when you don't do a true "reset". But if you really don't like me having millions and yet rig the system in your favor by purchasing highly valued properties to make even more money, then that's hypocritical and proves my original point - grasping at straws to quickly get rid of me 2 weeks after I was just unbanned.
The amount of bullshit you spit is insane, I do not own "valuable" properties. I do not even own a mansion, I'm holding an ammunation for someone else and have my own one and also have a cheap warehouse in blueberry near my farm that I've acquired after over a month of work.
Let's go back to Andeey's topic just to again prove you wrong.
Now, there were questions about the legality of these reward crates (Where did they come from?). Andeey introduced these in this thread: https://www.argonathrpg.eu/index.php?topic=125447.195. (Took screenshots as well so that you don't remove this thread).
You've paid $500 according to you here
Attaching screenshots of proof, hiding only the name to protect real life identity:

According to Andeey's topic, if you pay $50 you will get a various of gifts, one of them is maximum of 5 RewardCrate T1. Meaning if you paid $500, you would get 50 RewardCrate T1. According to the script, chances are you can only get MAXIMUM of 4 vehicle vouchers if you have 100 RewardCrate T1. And there's a %100 sure chance to get ONE vehicle voucher in the 1st 11 rewardcrates opened. Meaning there's no way in hell you would get over 400 vehicle vouchers from rewardcrates. I forgot to mention the 300 vehicle licenses, you can't get these from any rewards. :lol:
Your excuse of you "legally" acquiring these items also fall to the ground. These items have been spawned and therefore they should be removed. You knew this and have done it anyways and you tried to hide it by spamming the purchase of tomato seeds for over 20 minutes to hide the transaction log on the panel although you could have done it in just one second by buying in bulk.
So Nathan I still have the choice to either keep you banned or unban you and I can decide that right on this minute but I really would like for @Aragorn to see all of the bullshit you've done since he requested to deal with you if you've done anything after unbanning you. I suggest advise you though to quit the moronic act you're doing by sending messages across discord servers and to people's DMs and act like an angel with your manipulative methods to drag public's attention to you, that won't help you get support from people to buy the community from the owners in the future infact you're just exposing your shit intentions. Cut the drama and own up.
