Can you see the contents of it though? The post says "testing" VSTF can see the contents but normal members shouldn't be able to. Yes, says testing. I'm on mobile version now and not seeing the quarantine banner on mobile. Hm, I think plugins don't work on mobile, try running desktop. You're vstf now though, so you should be able to see the post's contents regardless.

Lol, at least we get to stop the kiddies from going through it. I'll probably make vstf do some of the work too, lol.

Still trying to find a way to approve members, sorry
Edit: Never mind, I found a way

I have installed a new plugin that prevents posts from new members showing up unless we approve them.
It will take some time to properly vet people so apologies if you are negatively affected.

Also consider doing a IP blanket ban on all VPN providers, I can explore those options for you if needed. If you at least get 80% of them, better than nothing Can you find some for me? Thank you

master Aceboy44 if you're quitting forum because of difference of opinions, man how are your going to go thru life where you will face this almost on an hourly base of your life. Be that your family or work colleagues or friends. So chin up and stay I know this is off topic but AC/DC rocks! ? ‘Born to be a Metal head’ Aceboy if you can’t deal with a little squabble on forums then maybe this is not the place for you. I’m sure almost every forum member can recount a time where they have been disagreed with or even down right attack for that matter. Gotta but your big boy pants on before you click the join button. What's your favorite ACDC song? Mine is either 'Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap' or 'Thunderstruck'

Couldn't this be reported for false advertising? They're advertising it as a spinner when it isn't. More importantly wouldn't this company fall under the Russian Law and what exactly are the Russian laws on gambling? And who exactly are you going to report this to? If you were to report it to them, Apple or Google might take it off of their respective stores.

I recommend reporting especially the card flipping version, because that is so blatant fraud, same as dealer switching the card after a gambler chooses it. Reporting it for what? Much like gambling, fraud has a legal definition, and this isn't it. Couldn't this be reported for false advertising? They're advertising it as a spinner when it isn't.

Pretty much every "AAA" game made by a major company in the US and Western Europe is trash these days. Most of them are obsessed with lootboxes and virtue signaling. Not to mention the tremendous "dumbing down" that's happening because apparently people can't handle challenging games.(look at this). Just see CoD WW2, Fallout 4, Wolfenstein: The New Colossus, Mass Effect: Andromeda, and Battlefield 1 for examples other than EA. There are exceptions such as Doom 2016 though. Oh man I loved Fallout 3 played it for months and replayed years later. Was looking forward to Fallout 4 don't tell me it sucks!? I also finished the previous Wolfenstein, it was ok not that great. The new one looked cool though I thought. I loved the GTA series. Can't believe Fallout 4 isn't great Bethesda is a solid company I thought! Even wanted to work for them, they are in Virginia I think. Even before getting ruined by creation club, Fallout 4 was tremdously dumbed down from being an rpg. Simplified and uncreative perks, incomplete dialogue trees, lazy world design, bad story, etc. Creation club just fanned the flame by showcasing overpriced, sub par "mods" and downloading random things onto your desktop/console that hog hdd or sdd space. If you have not played it yet, you should get New Vegas instead of 4, it's cheaper too. I'd also stay away from Skyrim Special Edition as it also has creation club.

What is your point? The game was INVENTED to make a profit. They are smart and figured out how to do it easily. I don't hold that against them. And again...no socialist restrictions on how much profit they make. Are you going to limit them to a certain amount of money they earn? And how is it "ruining" the gaming world? If anything, it is providing a service to those that want to game. Nobody is forcing you to spend money on the game. You do so by your own free will. If you can't control your spending, that isn't their fault. You can make the same argument about war profiteers. They are there to take advantage of people who are in an unfortunate situation and there is no law like socialism stopping them from making as much profit as they can. Any new invention can create a monopoly in the market, even a new medicine e.g. Just because people do not have an alternative and have to buy from you because you have the new invention doesn't mean that should charge as much as you want for your new invention. Just look at the story of one of the most hated characters in the U.S. - Martin Shkreli. Well he definitely had intelligence and certainly was in a capitalistic society... What they are doing is wrong because they are manipulating a lot of people's psychology and well known theories of "gamification" to make way more money than they would if they considered what is good and fair for the players. In a capitalist world it is not illegal to only think about the profit of course. But doesn't mean that it is ethical and it doesn't mean that the customers will not even complain about it. Lastly, as far the gaming industry is concerned, I think it would be a nightmare to all the gamers in the world if the major labels looked at Pix's balance sheets and decided to go their route maximizing their profits beyond imagination where a $300 plus robot makes sense. raahloonraah, politics are not allowed on this forum.

No no I am against spending money on a mobile app game. REAL Games for the pc and the consoles use the talents of so many people like more than a movie production and are really well made and worth the $50 or $60 bucks they charge. You can play those real games in a 4k display for the money you spend on a single bot? I cannot understand why these people are doing this, spending sooo much?? If they spoil stupid easy to make games like these with so much money what does that do to the gaming industry - the real players may all just give up and create silly games like this one! You might want to check out EA games, they're doing exactly the same thing as mobile games. $60 for the game, quests to complete (but you can bypass the in game quest for $$), and loot boxes. I would guess the gaming industry will crash at some point, when folks are fed up enough. Pretty much every "AAA" game made by a major company in the US and Western Europe is trash these days. Most of them are obsessed with lootboxes and virtue signaling. Not to mention the tremendous "dumbing down" that's happening because apparently people can't handle challenging games.(look at this).

I actually think they need to buff the new weapon just a bit.. But I am sure I am in the minority on that.. Because weapons outscale armor, level 8 weapons seem weaker versus level 8 robots than level 12 weapons versus level 12 robots. So I want you to remember what you said about the Vortex... It is exactly why the Ember and Shocktrain got released as they are after seeming "weak" on the test server. Pixonic really should set the test server to level 12. It used to be at level 12, but I'm guessing that they changed it to level 8 to hoodwink players into letting op weapons onto the live server.

Sigh....(rolls sleeves back down) Dude. I don't want to know what you were doing with a sheep requiring that your sleeves be rolled up. He was poisoning someone's mutton? Thumbs up if you get the reference.
