So here is how it pretty much breaks down. A few days ago people in Eden started to whisper me and let me know that someone in the pledge was asking for weapons and account passwords. I of course advised for all of them to not give anything to this person and started to become suspicious. I had read on RiffRaffs blog a few days earlier that someone had been running a scammer operation on Dep recently and I wondered if perhaps that scammer was....in our pledge???
To make a long story short, we narrowed it down to one person in our pledge. An elf named ET2 had recently joined and nobody really knew much about him. We did know however that his other characters were theelf1 and theelven1. This is important because that very same day I saw Arsun globaling for theelven1 to whisper him. Thinking perhaps it was related to the scammer, I whispered him and and asked if theelven1 had scammed something from him. Of course as we all know by now, Arsun had lost EVERYTHING to him. Once finding this out I immidiately sent out a pledge letter warning about ET2 and I also explained on global what was going on...in order to keep others from suffering the same fate.
Now this is where it get's interesting..
The next day I log in and someone in pledge tells me Im now possibly a suspect as being the scammer. What the Hell? After some digging I find out that Arsun had talked with theelven1 on ICQ and was told that I share accounts with "someone" else in the pledge, and this other person was the scammer. Well, this little bit of information made me really mad. ANYONE that knows me at all knows my feelings about cheaters, bots, hacks, and account sharing!! I have played Lineage for just about 3 years now. It took me over a year and a half to get to dk, and in the next year and a half Ive only gotten to 54. I DONT SHARE ACCOUNTS WITH ANYONE.
I immidiatly whispered Arsun and set up a meeting. I wont go into exactly what was said, but I offered to open my linweb for him if he doubted anything i said. My account has also only been accessed from my home IP address which could be proved by NC. I was only trying to help stop the scammer and so the scammer decided to use me and another pledge member as his scapegoats.
Arsun if you read this, please realize that guy is feeding you lies. I don't know what else he has told you but I know for a fact he pulled the "sharing" thing out of thin air. I'm sure he is fabricating many other stories as well.
And there you have it...probably the longest post I will ever have in the history of this blog. These particular events just struck a nerve with me because I have a reputation on Dep as being a "good" guy, and to have something like this blamed on me (and a fellow pledgemember)is just upsetting. I've said my peace now...
See ya in game!
