Hey everyone. So much time has passed since I left Skyblock last year. Skyblock had a big reset and I think it is time for me to tell my story on how I crashed economy. I am no good storyteller, so I just tell you what I did illegally to get Money and resources. All techniques from back then are either not working anymore ore useless because many items are now legal. Golden Sky Empire | Skyblock Forums [icq10] Island farming [staff] | Skyblock Forums Some people know me as icq10 or the GoldenSkyEmpire. One Year ago I got banned for my activities, after a long discussion I got unbanned. At the end I have to say: I was guilty. Reporting people for things they did not do I had my own server where I reconstructed the Spawn or my island a little bit. With some Plugins I made it possible to change the name of my second account and gave him the fake rank. I wrote things in the chat that were accusing him of being not polite. Sometimes I made photos where the fake player was trying to kill me with lava. In many cases it resulted a warning of the player. One time the person got a Tempban, another one got banned. I didn’t pick the people randomly. I just chose people that were either richer than me to make myself look richer and people that spammed me all the time. Fake auctions My friends auctioned a redstone and I was bidding $10k - $20k. Then I wrote in the chat “I’m in a good mood today, anyone wanna challenge me?”. Some players wanted to challenge me and were bidding higher. SO we got the money. If I won the auction. The person gave the money back to me. With that we got about $60k, but it only worked on weekends. Island farming I was flying with a grid system from island to island to chekc if they were protected. My 4 friends were greenbeans and waited at the empire. When I gound one I teleported 2 people there to search while I continued flying, if the place was bigger I created a warp there with a complex name and all 4 were gathering stuff. We had a system that took us less than 10 minutes: 2 were looking with Nodus for chests and opened them. We immediately threw trash and other unnecessary stuff in the void. But we took worthless stuff that was collected in stacks in order to auction them for quick money. If chests were locked we just placed a rail under it and a hopper minecart. The items were flowing out of the protected chest and we mostly made a lot of profit. The third one was inspecting placed blocks (iron blocks, redstone, pistons), destroyed machines, killed animals, put lava on the bedrock and looked if a mod was online. Once we found an island that belonged a mod. We assume that he misused his rights because he had many valuable items and things that no one else had. We captured Diamond blocks, Quartz, Heads and other Stuff. We got that stuff all but didn’t want to get accused of having illegal stuff. After a long discussion in our empire (on our own TS Server) we decided to sell them on other accounts to get quick money, the other half was stored on an unprotected island that did not belong to us with a warp from another account that was not connected to us. Later on we got less caring and got the stuff on our island, where the mods were skeptical and finally banned us. During our ban we were trying to be diplomatic and prepared for the ban appeal. We were searching together for explanations of every single item found. But first of all we requested of what we are being accused and were pleading for not guilty. We wanted to go through every accused point step by step, requesting an inevitable evidence, posted our statement on how we got it legally and then called every single argument from the mods as wrong. At the end they kept some items but we got unbanned. We were frequently searching on the Bukkit dev forums if there were bug reports for known plugins. We tested them immediately (just a few worked) and it was amazing. As you can see we had a high criminal energy. This was not just something we did for fun, we had a system behind it and spent many nights and days to figure out on how to control this server. We were not overestimating by calling ourselves the Golden Sky Empire. I am not looking for amnesty. I just wanted to tell my story. Dear mods: Your word is my fate. Just do what you think is right. My time has come to tell you. I don't play this game anymore. I had my fun. I just want the others to know what I have done to them or what the Empire was all about. Here some images to look at the good old times (inventory pics by MrStealYourGirl):
So you let others take the hit for your own actions. You reported myself and other staff knowing it could get us demoted. So many words can describe you right now but I'm not allowed to say them here.
Hello, so let me ask you this, why did you decide to island farm and "fake auction" to earn money? May you please tell me why island farming is bad and is a rule? I'm very surprised you would do this.
Survivors, I would let Bdark to join in this, as he handled the old report, and was the banning moderator, I'm pretty sure, a year ago.
I don't need to handle it nor do I think I have the authority to. However, I should be able to put in input
Not for you to handle, for you to put your stuff/comments, back then. You handled the old report, is what I meant. cx
Putting in a report the day I was demoted was cold. You lied, stole, and was a overall terrible player when I was a mod. You were not compliant with moderators what so ever. As Bdark said, I can't say the words that describe you.
And those "good times" by your table, don't forget you reported 3 moderators for standing exactly where Bdark is.
I can only be tried once... Look up: the "Double jeopardy Clause" The fifth amendment of the US Constitution Article 103 paragraph 3 of the German Grundgesetz (GG) § 362 and 373a of the Strafprozessordnung (StPO) I say that it would fit to the Rule number 15 for the SkyBlock Servers.
Take it as you will, I'm here as a witness. And I'm here to give insight to the kudos who now have to Deal with you. I'm not going to start a flame war here, I'm done speaking unless I'm asked to. If bot needs me, he can (and already is) contact me on skype.
I do not know what I did wrong to you, PDA11. I was reporting you for the right thing. You and Bdark called me a racist. I think even someone controlled the server logs to confirm that, so it was not fake. And at the end it was the decision of Cyp. Concerning you I did nothing wrong. Want to see the screenshot from then? And I remember the harassment. It all happened after I got unbanned. You teleported to me all the time, jumped around me, stood on the table (visible on the background of the image...) That was not professional at all
Buddy, you Are not the reason why I was demoted. At all. Believe me. I'm pretty sure anyone who was there that day knew we were kidding around with you. You didn't seem to tell me to stop? You didn't tell anyone to. Now I see what you are doing. Go along with it, then report people. It wasn't all the time,we teleported to you once. We were trying to be decent with you. I'm done talking here. Edit: Mods aren't perfect. I was very immature last year. We are just trying to have fun. That's all I have to say until a mod asks me a question.
