[LCN] TGIF! Mob Wars - LCN Development News Feb 29 - March 4

TGIF! Here’s your development news round-up for the past week!

Player Bans February 22 - February 28

As a reminder, the following numbers are permanently frozen accounts, and don't count temporary freezes.

FB: 2
KP2: 0
Kong/Armor: 1

The majority of permanently frozen accounts are frozen for being a shared or alternate account. This is something we actively investigate, and we appreciate players reporting suspicious accounts to us.

If you have any questions or comments about a frozen account, please direct them through Support as the Forums are not the place to discuss account freezes, because of the sensitive account information involved.

New Limited Items!

A new week means new Limited Items! Here’s what’s up for grabs:



Steel-Bound Crates!

The crate selection has been refreshed. See if you have the Godfather’s favor with a chance to score one of three new Legendary items!



March Monthly Calendar

“Spring” into uh...Spring with the March Monthly Calendar, on until the last day of the Month!



Collapsible Achievements

A community-requested idea went live a couple weeks ago thanks to a suggestion from @Jared. Have you ever wanted to check your status on a section of achievements but didn’t want to scroll down to see it? Now you can collapse each section of Achievements to save space! Here’s a link to a gif of it in action: http://i.imgur.com/L9venkB.gif

Support Report with AdmiralPenguin

The past few weeks we've had some pretty big issues in World Chat across all of our games. I don't like having to bring this up again but it's pretty important. World Chat is seen by everyone, including new players. Imagine popping into a new game and all you see are slanderous, mean spirited comments? I don't know about you, but it would definitely make me not want to reach out and ask for help.

Chat should be a place where rivals can spit fire at each other, but civil fire. Not raging dragon breath. I get that a lot of you have some intense rivalries, that being said it's not okay to bring up the personal lives of other players because you're upset or frustrated.

I feel like I shouldn't have to mention this, and it makes me a bit sad that I do. Talking about the families or friends of rivals that don't play with us isn't just crossing a line, it's jumping over it...it's blinking over that line by at least 9 meters. Leave the fam out of it. World Chat is available to every player, old or new, and having it monopolized by long arguments that should be private is simply not appropriate.

Feel free to talk about the movie you just saw, that super fat puppy you just got, or an amazing burrito you had. We don't want to stop the positive, friendly conversations that help to bring our community together. What we're trying to do is crack down on people who are overloading Chat with personal grievances. To sum this up, keep a PG-13 vibe and keep other’s personal lives out of Chat.

thats really terrible joke mate

 

thank you

 

lame joke lol

 

I kinda got a chuckle out this weeks lame joke, stupid but kinda funny.

 

As for chat abuse, would kinda be nice if those who abused it in the way you described would get some kinda warning, like do it again & you'll loose x amount of stamina or energy & if the persist, then warn their account will be closed. I know from experience that if a newbie enters world chat, then a high player will just attack & kill them just for the hell of it. I was told by a high player when I started to never go in world chat, that higher players patrol it in order to kill lower players.

 

I thought the joke was funny

 

welcome to forum ml

Sick joke, lol, try again
