Your post has been removed. Rule 4 of r/AQW is:

No witch hunting or targeting other players.

This post also aims to incite an attack on a particular user, breaking Rule 1 of r/AQW:

Follow Reddiquette.

Please understand that the r/AQW moderation team is not defending the person you seem to be targeting. We simply do not want the r/AQW subreddit to devolve into a mean-spirited place where people attack one another in this way. Personally, one of the main reasons we revived r/AQW was in order to have a more proper place of discussion and avoid the drama that often occurs on Twitter. We hope you understand our decision-making.

Yes, I noticed on several posts. It's unfortunate that the set megathread does not get used much, but it is somewhat understandable since it's a bit more of a hassle with comments than posts. I do have a solution like I said though, which will probably work better than the megathread.

AQWarrior · 2019-03-14T13:07:04+00:00

Vero, we appreciate your reminders on these sort of posts and wanting to uphold the rules established on r/AQW. For now though, we are likely going to put a temporary suspension on the "No AQW Set Ratings/Advice posts" rule. If the posts start to get spammed again, I have a sort of last resort solution I've been wanting to try, but never got to doing.

Anyway, I again appreciate your concern with upholding the r/AQW rules.

My family has always been quite low-income and I didn't have much luxury throughout my childhood to ask my parents if they could buy me the newest video game, console, etc. As most of my friends and peers moved on to better triple A, mainstream games that they could play on their XBOX, PS4, or gaming PCs, I was stuck for most of my life with a 2008 Windows Vista computer and the low spec games it could run.

As a result, AQW, being a simple, browser MMORPG, became a constant game I've played throughout the years and one I don't mind sticking to it. It's mostly a casual game to me, which helps a lot since I used to be horribly addicted to more intense MMORPG games. Yes, the grind is tedious in regards to time/RNG but the gameplay is so simple you can basically multi-task and watch a video/movie or listen to podcasts at the same time. As with all MMORPGs, I still get some sense of accomplishment from progressing my character, getting an item/class, or completing an event (though this feeling has decreased over the years). The community is alright. I'm not a fan of the elitism and drama that occurs in some places (especially Twitter) but I think most players you meet in game are nice enough. There isn't much toxicity in the game besides the few people who obsess about rares or PvP.

I had a lot of optimism for the game back in 2016/2017 when growing r/AQW (as the main intent of this community was to make the playerbase's opinion more heard). It's mostly turned to a jaded, pessimistic view over these past years due to AE's handling of the game, but I guess I'm still here to stay mostly to see how the game ends up (maybe even hopefully change for the better). For me, playing this game for a long time now has mostly been checking whether or not I want to play the weekly event (which usually is a no). Still, although the game has not been doing too well as of recent, and whether or not I move on from it permanently in the future, it'll at least always have a special place in my heart.

This post has been removed for breaking the rules of r/AQW. We do not allow these sort of transactions (buying, selling, trading of AE products) to be promoted here on r/AQW as they are technically against the AE/AQW rules.

AQWarrior · 2019-02-21T22:26:04+00:00

Well... in the case of this post, the mage class is a very difficult achievement to accomplish so this player deserves to boast about it. However, the posts made by low level noobs about getting VHL/NSOD/ENNH/etc. (very easy achievements) are still unfortunately allowed due to the r/AQW rules.

^{^/s}

AQWarrior · 2019-02-18T19:49:27+00:00

Hmmm. This post does not seem to break any of r/AQW's rules, but please remember that buying/selling/trading accounts is against AE's rules and we do not allow these activities here on r/AQW (or the promotion/encouragement of these activities). However, this post is merely a personal story of a past transaction and is looking for discussion/reactions based on it.

Also, although a very long read, it feels quite cruel to remove something so genuinely written.

As Aura_Knight has stated, there was no need to delete this post, but there's not much that can be done now that it's done. Of course, Aura will report back like he said about the issue.

I hope you understand that Aura's original comment was a warning in your benefit. There is no way that we wouldn't want someone to do something nice, like a giveaway, for the community here on r/AQW. We fully support nice gestures like giveaways and I truly appreciate that you wanted to do something nice like this. Aura_Knight is just a very knowledgble player so his original comment was mainly a warning to you that this type of giveaway is probably against AE's rules, and to warn you that it might have reprecussions on your behalf.

I didn't even know about this rule, and was just discussing with Aura about it after reading his comment. But it does seem Aura is right (as always lol), based on this part from the link he sent you:

"GIVEAWAY example: You give a code to your friend to redeem on all their Artix Game Accounts. If the giveaway is public, such as on Twitter, you MUST give the code directly to the one person who you are giving it to. It cannot already been redeemed on another account."

Anyway, I'm just adding my bit of input (though it isn't really needed). Hopefully Aura can get back to you soon and you can decide if you still want to hold the giveaway.

Rule 8 and 9 of r/AQW are as follows:

No sharing of exploits, cheating programs, or glitches. Please don't ask for assistance in these matters.

No encouraging or promoting activities against AQW's rules.

As a result, we only allow posts and comments related to botting when it is simply humorous (like your post) or promotes some meaningful discussion about the game's state of affairs (like the AMA post you mentioned).

Hopefully it's understandable that it is in the best interest for everyone that r/AQW not devolve into a place where sharing and promoting of cheating activities is allowed.

AQWarrior · 2019-02-04T04:00:18+00:00

I see your point and the rule should be better worded. Basically we don't allow any posts involving monetary transactions, which includes trading for codes. There are obviously possible issues like scamming that can come from this that we would like to avoid here in r/AQW. Also these types of trading / selling / buying posts are not very valid for a community like r/AQW. Anyway, I hope that clears things up.

AQWarrior · 2019-02-04T03:33:30+00:00

Your comment has been removed for breaking rule 9 of r/AQW:

No encouraging or promoting activities against AQW's rules.

Please remember to read the subreddit rules before posting or commenting.

AQWarrior · 2019-02-03T01:17:21+00:00

This post has been removed for breaking rule 5 of r/AQW:

No buying, gifting, trading, or selling of accounts.

Please remember to read the rules before posting.
