OK, here is the whole truth so all of AL can know it and not have to hear bits and pieces from whoever...
Angel sent Trips that money which was money we pass around so people can use the Midlan House to train in. She sent it to him when he was offline and he hasn't been back online since. We have no idea what happened to him as he never told us he was going offline. So, fast forward a week and it's obvious Trips isn't coming back. I emailed Zen asking if she could put the money in his bank account since we didn't think he was coming back. I don't know what happened after this, all I know is the money got into his account and then I got a mail from Zen saying she had to take it back out.
So I got home, do my thing, log back on and see that Trips has been mugged by Matt for over 600k. So I kicked him from the gang and did my best to stop Matt from taking more from him. Mr. Fantastic thought he would join in and help Matt mug Trips by hitting me to knock my hit points too low. I did what I could but 3 against 1 is tough and finally ended up hospitalizing Trips and went to bed. By the time I got back on the next morning Sarge was mugging Trips for what little bit Matt didn't take. Come to find out that Matt knew Trips had the money, and he mailed Zen and got her to take the money out of his bank account.
Now, obviously we are upset. We thought that money was going to be kept in his bank account instead of being out there for anyone to take. We didn't complain to Zen however, cause we don't do that. Instead we do what we always do and that's fight back. We decided we would start hospitalizing those involved until they sent us the money back. They offered to send us 800k back, which we felt wasn't enough. We said 1 mil and they turned it down. So we continued.
After that we offered a deal of them sending us 2mil, plus we never war them or any of their gangs again and never attack them again, even offline. They refused so we continued to hospitalize. They countered with 1.2 million and no wars ever, but we didn't like that so we refused. Finally Zen stepped in and said we need to figure this out. So we said 1.5 mil and no wars ever, and they stuck with 1.2 mil, plus 100k from Nighttrain and no wars ever. We came up with 1.5 mil because that was the difference of what it costs to start a 9 person gang, since we deleted theirs a while back.
Finally we decided enough and said we would take the 1.2 million plus the 100k and no wars, and they still said no to that. The one thing they had always been asking for and they still said no. So here we are. We are no longer willing to deal with people who obviously had no intention of dealing in the first place. We decided to hospitalize all of the people involved and those we knew they had ties to in an effort to get them to negotiate. So yes, we are hitting people not involved, I admit that, but we are doing what we feel we need to do. So we came up with this offer for those of you who don't like the fact that you are getting hit and have no say in the negotiations.
There, that is the honest, 100% truth. Make your own judgements. |
