Over a year ago I asked a friend who was involved in the dev group about trying to help out coding but was basically told that the dev team was hard to work with and almost impossible to gain their trust.

You do realize you can download the server and make changes to it and submit them, right? It's not a matter of trust, unless you mean 'i want to be a GM'.

Yes he mentioned that to me and I read about it also. I don't NEED to be BM or anything, I am more than happy to help without any recognition or supreme power, etc. I don't remember the exact conversation, but I do recall my feelings at the time were kind of meh in regards to submitting fixes to GM's that seemed like they were hard to please. I have NO IDEA if this is the case, just passing along what I was told, and why certain things going on right now seem questionable to me. Could the Devs/Gms (including yourself) be 100% legit and the server becomes everything anyone can hope for? Of course, and I hope that is the case, but I would be naive in thinking that it's all ANH fault, and the Devs/Gm's are perfect people.

I'm hoping all this can blow over and we can see a stable server with a good relationship between the Devs and all members of the community. For now I will hold off playing anymore until that is apparent because like anyone, I honestly don't want to have a time dump into something I don't enjoy.

Devs don't deal with these types of issues.. GMs do.

So since the lead GM has decided to give everyone the green light to go exploit the bug, Destiny has been power leveling their sub 30 Mains and Alts by grouping them with their level 50s in Sol A. At this very moment there are 3 full Destiny PL groups going on in Sol A. It is a sight to behold.

The fact that this isn't being patched immediately is just another sign for the downward spiral this server is in, and the blatant favoritism. After all, they used to take down the server immediately to fix such exploits as a 70% drop rate on the Hooded Black Cloak or to change the order in which certain NPCs will cast their spells from their spellset, or simply just to reset a broken Cabilis West zone. But for some reason, even though half of the server is using a known exploit to level up at this very moment, it will take them at least another 2 to 3 days before this bug will be fixed.

Insiders have revealed Destiny is now only 3 to 4 weeks away from tackling the Fire Giants, and we all know Vox and Naggy will be released right after that !

Speedz and other officials are not willing to comment on the situation at this moment. They are more concerned with finding out the true identity of yours truly to end my crusade for a LEVEL PLAYING FIELD and FAIRNESS.

I will keep fighting the good fight!

Sincerely, Bleepo
Hero of the Server


Edit: Pretending you are a new player trying to get started on TAK and asking me for my ingame name to chat is NOT GOING TO WORK, Speedz. The same goes for lame ass attempts of making me post on the TAK forums. After all I do not break the rules, and will NOT create a second account there, and I am not going to reveal my identity to a forum troll. Amateurs..

bleepo, you're 5000 candles in the wind. keep up the good work!

Not too concerned abt current exp exploit. When cap was 65, took a few mages to put in VT, from 0-55, emp keyed, emp kill, in 8hrs total played.

Doing a PL is easy.

Allowing exploits to stay, so guilds can mow down raid mobs. Well, that ruins things.

Fight the fights that need fighting.

My goal is to be at least 50 by the time SoL comes out.

I agree for the most part... But when things seem in favor of a guild and there is already gm's in that guild.... Does not give for a bright future for the people who aren't in that guild. And judging by past things that happened on eqmac just adds to it. I really really hope this server turns out great and that I am just reading into things that aren't there, but for now I am going to take a break and see how it unfolds. I still have p99 for now, but I really want to raid me some luclin and pop.

You cannot tell the effect of the GMs in that guild yet. Many will think favoritism even if its not. Who cares. Play. Have fun.

You will find what you are looking for if you search hard enough. You will see things in a biased nature.

If you want what Destiny has so bad? Join them.

I assume this was targeted at me... since when am I speeds? well obviously you don't want to group or socialize; which is fine you should have just told me so.

N E Wayz... anyone else have a lowbie toon and wanna hep out a starting chanter? name is Gelba, 6 - gnome. HMU in game or PM me here.

oh cool another pointless slapfight about guild politics on a server that's been dead for over a year

this is way more important than the staff being rather terrible; thanks for your post Imaa
