Why was he ejected from Ark?
I offered free warp from ark to calypso. I wasn't logged out but tp'ed to space.

The quality of the general environment for Entropia players is important. This is what builds the community, retains players, and allows new and experienced players to enjoy the social aspect of the game.
Cheating and exploiting does have a negative effect on this, and should be dealt with. However, toxicity, badgering, harassment, and consistent spreading of discord has far more potent of a negative effect.
If you believe certain players or groups have gained an unfair advantage via cheating/exploiting, you have several avenues to approach this:
File support cases
Discuss in your society
Discuss publicly
Discuss privately
All of these are fine. However, if complaints about your discussion are received, or you are asked to change your approach as it is coming across as disruptive to other players, one should do as asked. If you choose not to do as a MindArk Official, Live Support Official, or Planet Partner Official has requested in this situation, you may be temporarily removed from the situation, in an attempt to reduce toxicity and disruption to gameplay.

Great words and as i stated, i`m not that good with words, yet i doubt ONE person can harass an entire group of "players".The quality of the general environment for Entropia players is important.

Majority rule might be the social justice mindset when such a call is made. Im not saying thats acurate, just a stab in the dark.
There is an option ingame chat that let you ignore an avatar!

Since when making jokes and speaking the truth is considered toxicity, badgering, harassment, and consistent spreading of discord?
Also, many players seem to disagree, actually cheating and exploiting has far more potent of a negative effect than a few jokes in a public chat...

What is really happening is far from the propaganda that is being spewed here. First off, the people being accused of cheating in this thread have never placed in an event since yogs came out. I got mine during this whole cheating thing. I am sure someone dumped theirs on me because of this situation. Anyone here is capable of going back 18-24 months and seeing who potential cheaters are. They used yogs to win events. You will not see my name there. What this really boils down to is some people dislike other people for whatever reasons and they use anything to start trouble. MA has said repeatedly that the exploit is fixed. Just because someone has a yog out now, does not make them a cheater. There are people that obviously do not realize that. What i do find interesting is that almost all the support for this thread, came from 1 soc. That soc has at least 1 member who commented here, and is pointing fingers. THAT MEMBER ALSO OWNED A YOG, AND HAS PLACED IN SEVERAL EVENTS. Hmmmm. The person making this thread has been asked to let this situation go for weeks. She has had at least one thread like this locked and been punished for it. She continues. She has also made statements about how rich she is, claims she owns a casino, she should have her way, and everyone else is wrong. This is just to give an idea what that poor dev was dealing with. I am sure someone will make negative comments about me after i post this, simply because they do not like me. This is indeed what is the problem with EU. People post to defend their friends, instead of the facts. Nobody at that event was cheating. Yes some had yogs. YOGS ARE FIXED. LET IT GO. I personally am sick of hearing you accuse people of cheating when MA has clearly announced that it is fixed. I am also sick of you calling me a cheater 15x a day when i clearly acquired the yog during this issue, and have not won or even placed in any events since it was introduced. There is no favoritism, there is no defending anyone, u simply do not understand how damned annoying you are, and u pushed the dev too far. Do yourself and everyone a favor, and, LET IT GO.
my issue is simple (fyi im the dude with the smuggled yeungling) I was shooting having a good time, people started crying in chat and making my well deserved buzz of my limited supply of alcohol go away.
Ruining a Yeungling buzz should be a bannable offense as the closest place to obtain it is a 5 hours 1 way drive.
the people being accused of cheating in this thread have never placed in an event since yogs came out.
