Here are some photos as requested by jak2131
Oh no. I can't upload any pictures anymore?
What have I done to deserve all this?
I am sorry. Please forgive me.
SORRY.
You just turned World of Minecraft into terminator (Har har)
Every member can upload... nothings changed.
Grimeton has summoned a wild H4X \o/
I came here and expected to be able to ban somebody. Dissapointed
IT'S NOT TOO LATE
Bans are no fun! >:O
Maybe wrong photo format!
Anyway I had a nice chat with MrSnowGlobe last night about some of this.
Should I not too first be given a warning like any other staffs or/and players?
Yes, I was gone for a couple of weeks or so. I had to go in to the hospital. The anesthesia they give me is a very heavy stuff for me. I did let youse know at;
http://www.worldofminecraft.com/content/treasure-hunt-locked { #15 }.
I also gave mention of it both in game and on my twitter.
Replicator.
I did asked if it was ok to use replicator signs in shops months ago. Jupiter did said to me it was fine but the replicator do have a bug. "You have to reset it every now & then as it thinks that the chest contents has runout."
I can remember him when he was a mod two maps ago, when he had shops using replicators signs. That why I asked him about it. His an Admin now.
What staffs use to do when there was a problem with a shop, or a house. They use to just block the door way off with wool or dirt (Sometime with a sign saying "Closed until further notice".) until the owner returns.
Then, so as to show & tell & either the staff or player can fixes the problem together. Much nicer rather then destroying the whole shop or raiding a house! All my shops have been standing for months. Why waited until I had to go away? The stuff had months to bring any of the problems to my attention and I would and still will be more then happy to apply.
As for the "...a series of Auto-shops selling expensive items to users for $1 each." Can somebody please show me all the shop with the $1 each? The only shop I can think of is the op shop. Though I don't remember the $1 so it would of been very nice to have it shown to me so that I can have the kindest of a
chance to sort it out.
Lag machines.
Again, that don't sound right. Can you or somebody else please show me where all those "lag machines" that was spoken of are located. The only thing I can think of is a noise maker in the basement of IssacOzzman place. It was for a special effect for the now defunct treasure hunt.
Finally, my house I no longer have permission with and most of my chest and stuff are now gone. This have brought back some rather sad memories of an incident ... years ago (I'm over 50 if you must know). I won't get in to details but my advice to players is, don't have your house on land that somebody else owns.
I haven't been feeling well and I haven't been feeling good about any of this....

They were all removed.
hmm, i'll answer a series of questions here;
What staffs use to do when there was a problem with a shop, or a house. They use to just block the door way off with wool or dirt (Sometime with a sign saying "Closed until further notice".) until the owner returns.
with users shops, yes.

this happened while you were away, therefore they had to be removed.

there was one lag machine in the basement of IssacOzzman's home, superlag down there, next time make an on/off switch so we know.
As for the "...a series of Auto-shops selling expensive items to users for $1 each." Can somebody please show me all the shop with the $1 each?
and here are the screenshots requested;
the other shops were the record and farming shops, the records were spawned, couldn't be too sure of the farming supplies.
people could've abused the replicators and sold the items for free monies.
for those who griefed the peggle eyes have been spoken
the peggle eyes have been spoken
This just in: all staff need a pug gif for their signatures.
"The Puggle has spoken" -lockthread-
Shouldn't grimeton at least get some compensation?
Oh great, I just spent over an hour typing away here and now it all gone! tomorrow another day then sorry
I could screenshot the bits of the staff rules that he broke if you really want.
I must of press the wrong button yesterday. Back to the good old text editor then, for safety.
A lot of people I've spoken to in the 'real world' about all of this said the same thing, "They really gone over the top."
As I already said above, all of those shops of mine have been there for well over a month and now all of a sudden "this happened while you were away..." Why waited until I was away? Come on, you have to be a bit realistic about this one. I was in hospital. (Please see #8 above 4th paragraph.) People go away for a time for all kinds of reasons and come back.
I know that some of youse may have had Thought I "left in a fit of rage." but I'm sure a lot of players will think that it was the staff that gone off on a fit of rage. Who, who started that rumor anyway?
As I said before, on my return I had a nice chat with MrSnowGlobe the other night; He said to me "This Sucks. ... We all thought you left in a rage." He was almost was going to leave World of Minecraft over all this but H4X had talked him into staying. "No hard feelings." No hard feelings, what happen, happened and that the way it is and I accept that and we all need to learn from all of this.
People will usually say their not coming back again with a "goodbye post" but some still ended up coming back anyway, (I did said before this is one of the best server hey, lol.) when did I said in a post goodbye?
I still think it would of been nicer if you had of just blocked the doors of my shops, but you only do that for "users shops". This is not a good impression for players to think of how staff being treated by staff! I mean, really. What ever happen to "equality for all"?
I had a good look at the screenshots. Thank you for that but I still don't see anything selling for "$1 each". What I do see is;
Stone Sword $2.55
Stone Pickaxe $5
Stone something $1.55
Something in the background $5
Leather Helmet $55
Leather Chestplate $85
Leather Leggings $75
With the free Cookie & Melon Slice, others have had free food at there shops before. I'm not the first. I am somewhat sceptical about "people could've abused the replicators and sold the items for free monies." (#3 above.) This had been discussed before, in game about a year ago or so, just before the Dispenser become available in 1.2.1 I think it was.
Free food, you'll have to be there all day stepping on & off that pressure plate to try and make it worth your while for some of that, "free monies". Shop items in a chest, yes I guess that possible, being cheap for the poor and all. So what I could of done if you'd mention this to me, is to removed all the replicators signs and bump up the prices a bit. Simple, no biggie. Likewise with the Record shop of which the prises are or where much higher then the Record shop at Beachside.
The Freebies, all that stuff there come from the donation bin out the front. No replicators or low low prices there.
As for the farmer shop, there was nothing wrong with that shop as far as I know.
The "lag machines" and there are only to be found of one! Not as Many as some have had claimed to be. Well there we go. Again, that so call lag machine was for special sound effect (Please see above #8 13th paragraph). "...superlag down there.." you say? That funny. Out of all those months of other players, staff and I being there, there was not ever a mention or experience of any lag there. Maybe a lag for the one with a bad connection, I don't know.
As for my house again. nichbal had taken away my permission and he or somebody else have taken away most of my chest and things in there. Most of all that was there before I become a mod. This I have found most dishearten and hurtful. It would of been nicer if the doors there too where blocked followed by a nice chat to come to some from of understanding.
Even my account balance have been cut back!
Is not true that when one have broken a rule/s then it only fair that the rule breaker be giving a talking to with a warning and to make amends? Or should one should of been banned? It seem to me like the punishment I received out weight the crime.
See ya all in game...
Poor Grimeton,
I honestly don't see why there is such a fuss.
Grimeton did just as much as many, many other staff.
Not to tattle on these guys but two examples of staff own age are Jups healing and food pool, and spud has a free melon thingy in my town.
My personal opinion is that Grimeton should be reinstated as at least trusted...
Also, Snow dont leave us :O
Ignoring most of it cause I don't want to join you in writing essays here.
2 things:
1) Just because some other people are giving something out for free, doesn't mean that it is correct and you should be doing it. If you knew that they were doing it, why not ask them/snow about getting that removed?
2) I don't think anyone was deliberately attacking you when you were away, that would just be when someone found that there were replicators/shops giving stuff out for free.
I know that some of youse may have had Thought I "left in a fit of rage." but I'm sure a lot of players will think that it was the staff that gone off on a fit of rage. Who, who started that rumor anyway?
the staff were still moderating the server, none of the staff "rage quited".
I still think it would of been nicer if you had of just blocked the doors of my shops, but you only do that for "users shops". This is not a good impression for players to think of how staff being treated by staff! I mean, really. What ever happen to "equality for all"?
hmm, note the shops YOU made had spawned items and replicators in there.
I had a good look at the screenshots. Thank you for that but I still don't see anything selling for "$1 each". What I do see is;
Stone Sword $2.55
Stone Pickaxe $5
Stone something $1.55
Something in the background $5
Leather Helmet $55
Leather Chestplate $85
Leather Leggings $75
once again, selling spawned items is illegal.
Free food, you'll have to be there all day stepping on & off that pressure plate to try and make it worth your while for some of that, "free monies". Shop items in a chest, yes I guess that possible, being cheap for the poor and all.
and the effort some people goto to abuse shops.
So what I could of done if you'd mention this to me, is to removed all the replicators signs and bump up the prices a bit. Simple, no biggie. Likewise with the Record shop of which the prises are or where much higher then the Record shop at Beachside.
well, i found the shops while i was inspecting the mall and looking near the spawn.
How much does stone tools and leather armor sell for on /sell hand?
Everything on /sell hand is underpriced in order to promote player-to-player selling.
What ever happen to "equality for all"?
If there was really equality for all, there would be no staff. :)
I spent 24 hours reading this..... I'm gonna go ride my gator.......
I need a new computer life :P
'If there was really equality for all, there
would be no staff. :)'
That sounds like a wonderful idea :D
That sounds like a wonderful idea :D
But Jak then your precious forums would be overrun with spam bots :D
Since when were we talking about the forum?
TL;DR I just wanted to say thanks for the sticky pistons your shop sold me. Got several stacks of them.

This post is a tad off topic :P
I sense a lock
Grimeton, thank you very much for serving as a Moderator.
I'm sorry events have worked out in a way that is displeasing to you and I hope you will continue to play on the World of Minecraft servers as a User. You are a valued member of the community in both your relations with others and the things you have built in-game.
That said, I see no point in discussing this topic any further in a public forums as any actions that could affect the situation can only come from above and should be discussed privately with those known channels.
Would it kill you to ask nicely for it to be locked?
WoM Coins: 5305
the shops have been terminated as the items were spanwed and had replicator signs on them.
also other spawned items have been terminated.
