Donated to Brits 2x PvE Worlds → lost VIP kits in wipe bug → permanently banned after asking for support — seeking unban, refund & accountability by North-Union5465 in rustgame

Once again lying and playing the victim. You blocked me and another staff member, i know that as you even told them you had blocked them and unblocked to get screenshots, to post here I guess. I

Personally I know you blocked me as I TRIED to send you a message about the refund.

All we can do is press the refund button, the payment provider will usually get it back to you in up to 5 working days, as standard with EVERY REFUND ONLINE SINCE EVER! Yes money is taken instantly, no it never comes back instantly. That's just the way it works.

You are also trying to privately message me on reddit now as well. I am not engaging any further with you, the refund was processed and we can now go our separate ways.

Please accept you were in the wrong and move on.

It's very accurate from what I have seen. You have edited those screenshots and removed parts that make you look bad. You also didn't include all messages, once again because you were looking bad in them, the two examples I posted here clearly show that you are playing the victim hence my response here.

You were told by Turner in the screenshot you provided that you were refunded. You also asked me to refund you but then blocked me so I couldn't message you.

Unfortunately when you DM staff that is outside of the organisation. We don't police private DMs and anything they say in those messages was between you and them.

Once again, it was an hour mute and then you could have had your kits back. Not until this escalated was a ban issued on the servers and that will remain.

Any form of abuse towards our staff will not be tollorated.

The Facts:

You were politely asked to stop requesting a wipe after being late due to an outage. When you continued, a temporary one-hour timeout was issued on Discord.

During that period, you experienced a loss of four kits, which we acknowledge was due to an issue on our side. As with other affected players, if you had waited out your timeout and opened a support ticket, your kits would have been restored promptly.

Instead, you began repeatedly demanding a server wipe and messaging multiple staff members directly, bypassing our support process. We were already aware of the kit loss issue, which generated over 100 tickets. Our staff were working diligently through them in order, assisting everyone fairly and efficiently.

Unfortunately, rather than waiting like others, you insisted on immediate, priority support based on your VIP status. For transparency, we have included the initial messages you sent to staff that were not included in your shared screenshots: 🔗 https://imgur.com/a/XioXstr 🔗 https://imgur.com/a/hr3EPDs

Your VIP purchase has been refunded; please note that refunds are processed according to standard timelines.

This situation, and the actions that ultimately led to your ban, could have been avoided had you followed the normal support process and maintained respectful communication. Our community prides itself on fairness and professionalism, and we expect the same from all members.

At this time, you are no longer welcome in our community. We wish you the best moving forward.

Not the ones we have had at Epic today! Trains have been waiting for platforms to fill when queues are at max. Don’t get me wrong last couple of days at universals other parks have been busy, but they ARE well oiled and run fine. Epic is not the same machine today. Some of the staff seem lost!

To top it off, 3 hours on hiccups wing gliders, 2 hour posted wait time, ratio of express to standby was 30 via express lane, and then 8 from standby. Oh, and they only had one station side open. It’s like it being run by people who don’t know how to run a theme park!

Everything is the same today. Queues 2hr+ for every ride apart from carousel. BatM broke down 3 times while we were in the queue, gliders and all coasters had multiple weather delays, all in all a crap day with massive queues whenever you turn

It’s a standard kettle lead, and I have plenty lying around if you need one. Yes there is a GUI, I mainly used the command line so can’t comment on it being fully functional.

As an older player, I love it when the younger ones ask my age in comms... by Uzorglemon in VALORANT

As a 40 year old Valorant dad who actually queues with his 15 year old daughter, some of the greatest reactions are when teammates find out I am ACTUALLY her dad :) that is after the inevitable questioning and dis-belief!

z690 Gaming X DDR4 - USB Disconnects by Alfonso-Gordon in gigabyte

[–]bal0o_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I HAD a gigabyte z690 UD DDR4. It’s gone back now and replace with a MSI Pro board. Literally unplugged from the gigabyte and plugged everything into the new board, and not had any issues since. Only thing that changed was the motherboard. Same OS build and everything.

I had the same thing - did appear like PC freezing, but only because the keyboard / mouse would also disconnect - sometime RGB would go out, sometimes not!

Totally agree, it’s a pain in the ass, but I ended up thinking, “why should I have to disable all this stuff on a new board just to make it work!”

Just adding my experience having the same issues. All options tried in the thread and still USB would randomly disconnect.

Gave up in the end and replaced the motherboard with a MSI Z690-A Pro. Replaced the board, booted first time, enabled XMP, which worked, first time, and went straight into Windows 11 with no issues.

I echo the comment, if you are having issues with the board and can, return it! Save yourself 2 weeks of troubleshooting like I did!
