Mercy/Shirley/Lemon (all the same person). Stop acting like you are a innocent victim and lying. You know it was for much more then asking a question. You were being extremely toxic and disrespectful towards me and the server. You were also badmouthing and spreading libelous comments on third party sites. Or did you not think we wouldn't notice it?
I have never banned anyone for brining up issues or suggestions. I have always encouraged it. But you and the others in the small group are upset over a mod being removed to prevent you from glitching into bases. We have a other mod in place that almost does the same thing minus the exploit. If you don't like the server then you are free to play on a other server. But you don't have a right to break the rules, insult others, or try to drive people away because you can't have everything your way. And now because one of you guys decided to post pornogerfic photos on the discord, the mater has became extremely serious and has been reported.

I was asking a serious question in discord and got banned? I'd honestly like to know why? I've brought no toxicity to the server, so I'd really like to know which rule I was breaking. You have messages that say to please bring issues or suggested mods to discord, but if either are brought up, it's an instaban?

123 6 May, 2017 @ 6:06pm 
Thank you guys for your patients on getting the server updated. I was up all night finishing my mod for it then had PT and then had issues getting my main system updated due to space. By the time I could finish I was exhausted. Hope you guys are enjoying this round!

Xtremexc29 5 May, 2017 @ 7:24pm 
So patch is live. What is an ETA on server wipe and switch to Island map?
Xtremexc29 5 May, 2017 @ 5:59pm

OMG, I got banned from the official ark forums for a computer glitch that dupli-posted my post. And it was even after I edited the duplicate right away and got a answer in the duplicated version that didn't even show the question. WTF Wildcare?
123 28 Apr, 2017 @ 11:05pm 
You have to remember that this server with all modded or rate adjusted servers, they no longer perfectly ballanced. Even wildcard is working hard to find a ballance. But to be more ballanced means you have to go vanallia. Most people dont like to or dont have the time to grind. Exspecially when you get wiped. I try hard to make a server that takes out the hardships of that and make Ark more fun. But as you know, everyone likes are a little different. I can only try to provide a ballance for everyone. Im consently watching ofver comments and gameplay to see what I may need to change or tweak. I may also add or remove things from time to time.
I may even remove Heelkites in next wipe, not sure yet. Becouse the egg mod was so broke, it's hard to say becouse this effected things.
123 28 Apr, 2017 @ 11:05pm 
Naa, a few people with their Hellkites got wiped. Again by no means a end all break all.
Plus the breeding issue has been fixed. This was a result of the Egg Roulette mod the developer poorly coded and gave false informartion about. So now everyones limited in their Hellkites as it was intended by the dev of that mod. Plus everyone had the same opputunties.
Rekt 26 Apr, 2017 @ 7:42am 
Hellkites suck. So many people focus on air with hellkites becouse they got no other skill's. They are so easy do down. Are you that scared of hellkites?
Pooty421 24 Apr, 2017 @ 3:19pm 
they are the end all break all friend.....its not like they are remotely hard to get even......i got an egg from breeding 2 penguins.......no one dino should be that strong........but i hope u and ur people enjoy them......Happy ARKing!
123 23 Apr, 2017 @ 5:00pm 
As for the breeding goes. Like I mentioned before, this is somthing I cnnot control right now. The dev has flaws in their mod that prevent us and some others from removing it. Until the dev accepts the fact he/she isnt perfect and nor is their mod, their isnt much we can do as of this round. We tried working with the dev and he/she is in denile even though others have complained. Their fix is to insult you and delete the comments and ban you for pointing out bug/problems. So untill next wipe, it looks like it has to stay. But again it is one other and legal method to get a Hellkite.
We are always looking for ways to imrove our server. Next wipe we are not using any of this mod developers mods as they are unreliable and broken and lack proper support.
123 23 Apr, 2017 @ 5:00pm 
@pooty We are sorry to see you leave. Yes, Hellkites are strong. Theirs always going to be some sort of alpha or top dino. Are they a end all break all dino? No. Can they be deafeated? Yes. Everyone has the oppurtunity to get them. So it is a even playing feild.
We have already nerf them a little and looking into other tweeks and adjustments. But their are more stratagies then just using Hellkites. In fact, they can easily be killed.
Remember you kill somones hellkite they may just give up becouse they might not be mutli-stratgegic in using other methods. Often times people focus on one type of stratagy and while they maybe good at it, they lack the apptitude to do anything else. These are the people that easily defeateable. Somthing to keep in mind.
Pooty421 22 Apr, 2017 @ 9:05am 
As I said the other night....Hellkites break the game.....Chunk came and 1 shot my dinos and left cuz i told him he was being mouthy (as he was)......but not really upset with him being a child.....but it should be a little more difficult for him to throw a tantrun yes?

The short of it is i will be leaving if/untill hellkites and breeding are fixed

Happy ARKing! :)

I am trying to get into the server but every time i add the ip, it just says not responding
gmfireater 6 Apr, 2017 @ 11:13pm 
Thanks Blast, I appreciate your response. As far as people coming here for the mythical mod, It's one of the mods that drew me to your server, but after seeing it's current state I changed my mind about it.. I have one final suggestion regarding the matter, if more people are on board with getting rid of it. You could offer to compensate anyone who has tamed the mythicals with comparable tames? I don't see how anyone can enjoy the creatures with how they blink across the screen, but if I am in the minority that will be the last I have to say on the subject. THanks again Blast.

Yea, I was never crazy about the color of the Indom. But, it was a working version of the mod and purhaps the best one. Just recently they came out with some crazy colors on them. I would prefure a more natural color. But you can let the dev know our concerns. You would be surprised, some of these dev will put alot of weight into your concerns.
But yea, I am working on toning down the spawn rates. My idea is these extras be more rare of a spawn then a common spawn. And I have been considering stopping certain extras from spawning all together.
123 6 Apr, 2017 @ 7:55pm 
As far as removing the mod entirly, I cannot do that right now. Their are a number of people that came here for this mod. I simply changed the server title. Plus their are a number of people that have tamed these creatures and it would not be fair to them to remove them. Just as if tamed a bunch of animals and bred them and such and somone came and said of they goto go and then I removed them. That wouldn't be fair to you. I had to remove a dino mod once before becouse a ark update broke it and was causing crashing. Some players lost alot of time from taming and breeding them. But that was a circumstance I couldn't control.
123 6 Apr, 2017 @ 7:55pm 
Thank you for your feedback. I actually been working on tring to cut down the spawn rates. As you noticed the Orges are spawning way to many. But yea, I feel the same way, they spawn way to many. I also agree the movement is chunky. I was hoping they would be improving that by now. Even though they are chunky, I have been seeing some small improvments. So all hope is not lost here.
gmfireater 5 Apr, 2017 @ 12:23pm 
Now the indominous... again this is a personal preference, but basically i feel like it's a little over the top. looks weird, the colors are nutty, it turns invisible... and again, they ought to be rare, if they are going to be in the mod pack. i may tame one if i find one that doesn't look completely ridic, but again, lower spawn rate so the islands aren't crawling with indomious areound ever corner.

That's all I can think of for the moment. Thanks for everything blast, daisy! I know I just complained a lot, but I do enjoy playing on this server, thanks for reading.

gmfireater 5 Apr, 2017 @ 12:22pm 
Ok, now, this is more of a personal preference, but I just don't think the monster hunter mod is that great. most of the mobs animations are pretty smooth, but for the most part the models look out of place and frankly lame. I'd rather have vanilla rex or wyvern over deviljos or any of that other crap. I guess a couple of them could be interesting, but if it were up to me i'd scrap it.

think i can finish in one more
gmfireater 5 Apr, 2017 @ 12:22pm 
Next I want to say the dragons and wyverns seem like a great addition. My only problem with them is they are all over the place. I would think those types of creatures would be more rare, but there as common as pteras as it is now. They've messed up two quetzal tames (one of which was a 160) and killed both a ptera during one tame and later a quetz i had just tamed up and built a cage on. suffice it to say, this would be easily fixed if the spawn rate was lowered.

to be continued in third comment

gmfireater 5 Apr, 2017 @ 12:21pm 
i can't figure out how to post on the suggestions post in discussions. I just wanted to make a few suggestions for the center ultimate pvp server.

Firstly, the mythical creatures mod has got to go. The creatures movements are super clunky, and though some of them look really cool (ents) some others (werewolves) look like total crap. The mod does havegreat potential, but it's too early. Maybe if there was a way to turn off certain creatures or at the very least reduce the spawn rates. Those ogres in particular are ridiculous.

(gonna have to post mutiple coments)
123 5 Apr, 2017 @ 10:00am
