TOPIC: [SSRP] Miners deserve a little consideration

if you got told that paying for a rank on a server will stop you getting rdm'd then your pretty silly, it just gives you benefits like unlimited job slots and printers and jobs not rdm protection lol

When people want to difuse something, they focus on the little things. First off, I rarely afk mine, I don't even go for gems most of the time, I like to mine more gold and stones, which makes me have to change ores constantly. So, the "you thought you could sit and afk" comments are just ridiculous. Even worse are the "VIP doesn't make you immortal", most of you who are saying this are the ones who kill. I don't mind getting picked on as a miner, but don't say you're helping the economy, you're just being the douchbag you really are but are not able to express outside the computer (don't take it bad, but I am pretty easy-going irl and I'm the same way here, you're not RPing, you're just "power-drunk").

Tadgee and others who seem to have problem reading, my problem is that we're not being killed for being afk, or to help the economy, we're being killed for other people to get spots to do exactly the same we're doing, but they want to do that not by buying VIP, by killing all those who decided to buy VIP to bypass the low 5 miner limit. That's all my problem is, men.

This has been made so many times. The point is obvious, but they don't listen because unfortunately - the fact that most miners will sit for hours doing nothing but earning money through their gems is one of the main reasons nothing is done about it.

It's too easy to make money as a miner, being set back by someone killing you in a perfectly legal way - except of course when they deliberately RDM to get spots - is ultimately nothing when compared to how much miners make.

I still think Chute should develop a "revolving currency" system, where after every one or two seasonal updates, the event currency is changed. Players with loads of gems remaining could trade them in for a fraction of the new currency. Maybe make it so that mining isn't the way to earn this currency, either. Switch it up a bit. Lots more complex than it sounds so it'll probably never be implemented, but still.

Tl;dr I agree with your points, but I also think it's pointless to argue against a system that is fundamentally flawed in the first place.

First thing I notice once I enter the server, a citizen stuck on the Wall with an autoclicker. I give him 1 dollar to see who it is, such surprise: http://imgur.com/a/MxEri
Hypocrite lol
Hope it was Nunu, tbh.

Father Watson, that does sound a bit tricky, but it sounds so much better than calling hitman-killing a way to save the economy.

So basically from what I can gather, the hitman in the video provided is trying to become a miner but does not have VIP so he can't become one due to job limits. He then gets a friend to place hits on them then kill the miner, then demotes the miner and continues to the next victim until he can get his hands on that job.

I even said in the video he'll have to become VIP if he wants to be a miner, because that is how the system works here.

In my opinion, I think the demotion system should be removed since that all it does is cause many many issues, there may be valid reasons and people using it for the right reasons but that's pretty rare to see.

On the last part of the video, when you think they're false demoting, that's the case yes. But on the beginning, it's just Nunu using is alt to put the hits and his main to take them. (Isn't that self-supply or something like that?)
I've never thought about that, tbh, that's a great idea... The hitmans would still kill the miners to feel big and all, but they wouldn't be able to demote. If there's someone not doing their job, you'd do a F1 or buy VIP, which is the point of having 5 job limit on a server that sometimes has 80 people anyway. Literally 80% of demotes are cancelled or someone says "don't demote for rulebreaks" because it's always reasoned with "RDA/RDM"
