This whole thing was not to get SoF a ban. I really hope people start to follow this rule though. It makes it extremely unfair to people who boost moderately and only use their boosts. And hopefully people start reporting this problem more often.

Hopefully there is a way for admins to monitor it. but when their is a huge surge in power after losing your entire army it is obvious at what is going on. I have seen it happen a lot of times, and I hope it stops.

good luck all -Trevor

Trevor,

all is good bro, banned or not..it doesn't matter for me...whose lost would it be?? BD &staff or alliance playing every world..

the more such is complained the more BD lose another mass supporter...soon including me... i wont support till this so called "Token Farm" is resolve...i want it fair and square match...

True Fact:

the more you ban a mass supporter the more BD statistic income drop... i know a few mass supporter who quit already...because of such being taken advantage...sadly but true..

time to do statistic, I'm sure more than 50% of the community here are working, retired, RICH and are will to pay such...oh wait... correction DONATE!!

Define DONATION?! is there a limit to it?? as a DONATOR OR SUPPORTER, i am willing to purchase...thats why there's a confirmation...a paypal...a button that says YES or NO for verification.. once confirmed..there is no returning back and or refund...

In any RL business, TOS is ammended or revised at lease once a year...the bigger the community, the more it gets revised..you cant have a perfect TOS...but correction and ammending to it is one of the solution to further improve.

In short, BD's current TOS is in need of ASAP revised...im sure 95% of current mass supporters and or supporters have no clue of this...

This is not a 5-10 year old board game anymore..where its a 1 time off purchase...maintenance is needed, valued supporters are needed...

If such generous supporter/supporters get banned for it even temporarily...then please, remove such word as "DONATION" as it is a mock to such supporter...we paid so much only to get banned/temporarily...

Non supporter with minimal supporter Vs Mass supporters... definitely you cant satisfy both...there will always be a loop hole, but revising and or doing such corrections can be done...never too late.

Summary:

i speak for all those supporters, i want a fair match...i dont want alliance taking advantage of such...as this is real $$$ involve...

you work so hard, being active in a world...for 21hrs - 48hr..being one of mass supporters in a world...only to find being banned in the end...or complained for being so generous...and over donating...since yours is on cooled down..

-----------------------------
when boost bar is 98%..alot of alliance and players mail me...

Non Supporter:"can you boost" so it gets reset and we get the bonus round resource. appreciate alot..thanks

Supporter: oh wait, im on cool down...zzZZzz....heres a token...i'm in a good mood today...boost and it gets reset..

next thing you know..he attacks an alliance..you get reported and then BANNED!!!

GUILTY?!
-----------------------------

Time to revise that TOS as it is not applicable for current BD now..community is big, its a "free game" for kids, but adults have come over to enjoy such game...and are willing to support as much as they want...

Either that...HEY KIDS!!! GO UNDER KIDS world SECTION where its free for play!! this is an adult WORLD match...VERY SERIOUS!! Where SUPPORTERS VS SUPPORTERS!! BATTLE OUT...Who supports and wins most... (-.-)"!!!

till then, looking forward... you all take care,

hey dont mock us kids

SoF there are plenty of boosters who play fairly and don't go against the ToS and wait for there cool downs to get over with. You agree'd to the ToS when you created your account.

And boosters can not be treated any differently than regular players.

Trevor.

yes bro, but once again, its time BD management /staff revise it, as BD community gets bigger and bigger!

As a business man, i want my income go UP UP UP!! not maintained or go down the drain...so by right..TOS are to be revised every now and then...this is what I'm highlighting...as i dont want other alliance taking advantage to this "token farm" as it is real $$$....once again real $$$

nothing to do with me but to speak for all mass supporters...we are "DONATING"/SUPPORTING HERE...IS IT OUR FAULT that we are being so generous to support as much as we want??

you yourself as a supporter...highlighted that, if such case, remove that cool down...so that means, you want that TOS to be revised too? correct me if i'm wrong?? right??

in fact, we are actually helping to improve BD...with more fundings...thanks to all supporters, BD manage tp build up mini games, battlegalaxy. es.battledawn.. bla bla...but because of such complains and being used to take advantage, soon it might go GAMEOVER for BD...

just a say, so yeah...once again, to revise the TOS is what im highlighting...not me going to be banned or not...for all i care... whose lost would it be...?? My team? Or one of BD's mass supporter??

SoF this is a game not a gambling service.

I want people to follow cool downs because they are in place so 1 person can't overpower the entire server. So i do not want it changed. If battledawn was all about money there wouldn't be cool downs. But they were put in place so everyone has a fair chance at winning. someone gaining 14 boosts in 1 tick is by far not fair and balanced. Which is why the ToS states that its against the rules to do so.

-trevor

Well Gollum I must say onething... when you do it you do it... the reasons you are showing doesn't stand because you did it... so you are guilty of the same thing... doesn't matter for what reasons you did it... if SoF has to be punished you deserve to be punished too...

So better stop getting other people banned for the same offenses you are doing... if you think you can be spared... you are absolutely wrong...

Seth,

This rule is a ridiculous one. Cooldowns are there so that supporters cant buy a round alright. But are you gonna tell someone not to spend if they wish to? Are you gonna tell people that their purchasing power should not matter to Battledawn?

There is nothing wrong with me sending tokens to someone, and him purchasing resources for me. I do it every era I play. I will continue to do it too. I spend big bucks, and I dont wanna be losing my army, or the round after spending so much. I think if I buy tokens fairly and just get someone else to buy resources for me, there is nothing wrong about it. Any admin that bans me for this, WILL get in trouble because that would be enforcing an abusive rule, and I wont stand for it.

The rules in the ToS regarding this are primitive, without foresight, abusive and silly. If people cant buy tokens, a person that can should not be blamed, especially when that person is contributing to BD in a big way. Its high time you guys revised the rule books and removed stupid rules such as these. Remember no one is stopping anyone else from doing it, even the ones that complain. The fact that they cant buy tokens is no one's problem.

Another option is to come up with some change in the cooldown systems. I dont have any idea right now, but if you can come up with some change in game mechanics, to kind of find middle ground, then its cool. But strictly enforcing this rule, is silly and only hurts BD.
