Shattered Kingdoms

Several players have asked me to investigate this rumor. I hadn't given it any credence, since I know that Achernar has a bunch of things going on in real life and hasn't even been available to help with the game much lately. But let's do this.

My understanding of the accusation is that (paraphrased) "Achernar pasted the exact location of Earar and Zaarim to Orsiphantes, his pet mortal, so that he could land a quick double kill".

Assuming this is the facts of the accusation, it would be hard to prove if true, but it's potentially easy to disprove if false. Achernar would have to be online during the time period in question and I have logs of all admin comings and goings.

Logs also provide the exact time period in question:

So when were the closest times Achernar actually logged into the game during this time period?

Or in other words, he didn't log on at all during that particular day. Hence the accusations are proven false.

Furthermore, I did a search for every active admin, just to cover all the bases. There were actually no admins online at all during this particular killing spree. The one online closest to the action was Meissa, but she logged out at 2014-05-17 19:00:48, almost 4 hours earlier.

Except that that wasn't the time that it happened.

Also it seems that I read "staff member" as Achernar.

The ONLY other time Orsiphantes killed Earar was on 3/30 at 17:11:53. No staff online during that time, either.

In fact, EVERY time Earar has ever died to any PC, the entire staff has been absent online.

Flail harder, please.

I never said that Earar died when the information was given out, or that Orsiphantes was involved.

And the example you gave is CHARACTER1 selling out CHARACTER2 to CHARACTER3 for an ITEM from CHARACTER4. It has nothing to do with my allegations, which happened before I even began to play my current character of Athrae.

Is this what it looks like from the outside?

Obviously Ardith is correct. No further investigation is needed. Ardith is not crazy, even in the slightest. Not at all. Not even a little bit. Not even a tiny bit.

They had to be online for them to copy/paste his location. Are you suggesting that they could see in the future on where that char was going to be????

If you snoop a player long enough you learn his habits and where they prefer to hang out. You can do the same by playing with someone long enough to learn. It is why I could never imm, because I enjoy playing the game, and at the same time refuse making alts to ensure I am not being biased or having info spill over.

lol, you all sit in the same areas?

While I've often saber-rattled and cried out for transparency along the lines of what Dulrik's posted, I can't help but feel like it's a sad state of affairs.

There seems to be way too much personal drama involved in the death of a few characters. Maybe these guys should take a break if the inevitable parts of SK get to them so much...?

It reminds me of those moments in TF2 when, after sniping some kid with your Ambassador, he starts mic spamming about how you're hacking.
