I'm 99.9% sure nothing changed with XP like you're suggesting. Are you using an xp share?

Nah, it's fine. Also you don't have to do any ADB anything to get the folder, just open the .apk from the website with a zip extractor and look at `assets/data/themes`

You heard the people @Darkshade make it happen.

It has nothing to do with RP anything, it was just incorrectly balanced.

Changelog 26/12/2020 - 2 Balancing: Added 4 extra Present pickup items in Twist Mountain's event area. Tweaks to Offensive Grass's starting moveset.

You think we want to be doing this now?

It probably did literally nothing. That's an extremely early screenshot.

It's just a bug, it will be fixed Soon™.

As for the main subject, the user was not left unbanned because of some friendship, nepotism, pity, or any other reason. To better understand, here is some context. We have had an internal amnesty policy where users can voluntarily admit to attempting to or successfully purchasing items via RMT. If a user reports their purchase in a reasonable time frame, before it is noticed, we will simply confiscate the item and let them off with a warning. Sellers do not get any leniency. As a slight extension to this policy, this also extends to RMT scammers. If you attempt to buy an item via RMT never receive the item, you can report it to us and the scammer will still be punished. Extending this policy this way prevents an abusable situation where a user is able to scam other users with impunity. If we have an environment where we ban the victim, then nobody will ever come out to report the scam. As you may have guessed by now, the user in question attempted to make an RMT purchase an item and was scammed. They never received the item they attempted to purchase. Admittedly we did not do the best at explaining this reasoning to the user. This is (as far as I know) the first time we've applied this specific policy to a scam, but we've often applied it users who learn the rules after committing RMT. This was not a decision made at the behest of a single SGM, but something that was discussed.

Did you even read my reply? Ban appeals are not a place to argue your innocence, they are a place for oversight and review of bans and for us to be able to inquire about specific actions taken. I can assure you we do review evidence in every appeal. I'm confused as to why you haven't sent it already if you have more proof. Send me everything you have via PMs.

This isn't a full response, it's only my initial thoughts. First of all, to address your complaints about being being banned "unfairly", you can't provide proof you didn't do something. You can provide all the proof in the world that you had some legitimate transactions and exclude the parts you don't want to admit. Everyone claims to be innocent, points to a few things they think clears them while pretending there was nothing else. We do not publicly discuss bans, so users feel impunity to claim their innocence without fear of being called out. Ban appeals are not a place to argue your innocence, they are a place for oversight and review of bans and for us to be able to inquire about specific actions taken. I haven't had a chance to look into the other claims yet, but one thing I can say is a player claiming to be a friend of staff doesn't actually mean they have a personal relationship with a staff member. This particular member in question is not friends with any SGM, even if he claims to.

It ends on 05/11/2020 00:00 UTC. Approximately 22 hours from now.

Special candy rate is fair™

So, let me get this straight, you saw someone breaking the rules and you threatened to report them unless they gave you items, but you were only "trolling"? Am I getting this right?

What is the actual error message you are getting? Everything I can see looks to be correct, and it is using last seasons ELO for priority.

Not sure if you heard otherwise, but we just took it, unset the OT, and sent it back. Whole process took 2 minutes.

They already do.

Turn on toggle run in settings. Two speeds are required for gameplay reasons. Sometimes you have to go fast, and sometimes you have to go slow.

Each season starts each quarter. Jan-March, April-June, July-Sept, Oct-Dec. The first one is going to be slightly shorter due to when we updated, it will end on Oct 1st.

One thing you're overlooking is that even if giftshop items were not tradable, players could (and did) do it anyway. Player A has $5 he wants to turn into ingame resources. Player B wants a $5 vanity. They somehow come to an agreement and Player A logs into Player B's account, adds the $5 to their account, and afterward the ingame resource is traded to Player A. So now that we know this is still possible to do, let me explain to you why this is even worse than the current system. Player A can use a stolen credit card, and Player B gets banned with no obvious link that Player A was actually who committed fraud. Player A can just steal things from Player B while he's logged in. And a few other stupid scenarios. This makes rule enforcement harder, takes more staff resources, leads to players being banned for things they didn't do, and just... doesn't accomplish what you want.

Rewards got reshuffled during the update to handle the new scaling of mmrp.

These are rewards for PvP players. Not everyone is expected to want to put in the time to get them. The actual time required may still need adjustments, but we're keeping an eye on it. The early reset for bi-weekly rewards was a one time thing due to rescalling of rewards. We're sorry for the inconvience it has caused players.

Seasonal rewards do not reset every 14 days. You have until the end of September to get it.
