so last month during a tw on tideswell a small faction beat a larger faction to kick the larger faction off the map. the larger faction is called **** and was in an alliance with a faction most people heard of ****. the alliance ended and most of the officers from the smaller faction were invited over to ****. then **** (the larger faction that has many **** alts in it ) got beaten by this tiny faction. then **** and **** renewed there alliance in game. Tickets were summited on it and the response was like this:
Hi,

Thank you for getting back to us.

Rest assured that we take these types of reports very seriously and we appreciate your dedication to making the game a fun and fair environment for everyone. Please understand that due to privacy concerns we cannot discuss the details or results of our investigation.

Feel free to submit a new support ticket if ever you have any other concerns.
Regards,

to me that is a "you can go your self." so the question hear is should other factions start bidding to manipulate the map as the GM see fine with the prospect on it and nothing gets done.
or do you think there should be penalties for it?
ban faction from current season tw?​​

    A few months ago the Mod Team raised issues with TW.

    I wont go into the long hall but the short reply was to report any problems. As a point seeing more planned and timed map resets should have an impact on this as well. Im sure the GM team will take action where they find a problem or the rules have been broken and If needs be I can also pass info on in regards.

    Thanks.​​

    Yer I can understand the frustration. However its is not permitted to Name and or Shame on the forums. Since this is with the GMs at that point I think its best left with them. However yes the issue is there and can be discussed just with out any names.

    Thanks.​​

    No frustration here. The topic was open for a while before I wrote something so let's hope no search-engine indexed the faction names.... think the Name and Shame rule is referring to people and not to urban/slang words like one of the named factions uses for a long time now. I think TW's need to change. We all can read the rules here on the forum but we also know rules doesn't mean anything in the game. It would be nice if we had a few active GM's.

    The players are also well aware of "players being officers in other TW factions..." rule being broken and "alt" factions creating multiple bids on targeted factions, but that's a retroactive report issue and nothing ever comes of that, either. You CS enough and you'll be fine. Yes, that is exactly how it appears to the community. A simple SQL script could solve that but hey, that'd cut into profits and we can't have that.
