Staff's behaviour

Dear @henhouse,
I've never played on your server but when I checked the forum and searched word "Iran" to find out why Iranian IPs are blocked, realized that you're a racist dickhead. GO FUCK YOURSELF with your dead server. (Anyway if you'd been molested by an Iranian in your childhood I'm not sorry since you deserved that)

Not sure what you're referring to, perhaps this post? https://www.smolderforge.com/forums/vie ... ran#p45111

If so, we used to have countless issues with fly/speedhackers back in 2011-2012 and there was a common trend that they often always came from Iran. No one had static IPs, so within 1 day of getting banned they came back, opened 500 tickets not understanding why they were banned begging us to reopen their accounts. Times this by like 20 people a week, and it was chaos. So yeah, we were a bit annoyed back then. I wouldn't take what I wrote 8 years ago super seriously anymore...

But if you think we blocked Iranian IPs you're super mistaken, we haven't done that at all, Iran's own government, if I recall correctly, cracked down on a lot of things around that time period and people have had issues connecting ever since.

But I apologize if any of my comments back then seems rude. I was a lot younger, and significantly more immature back then anyway, so I am sorry. The downside of having 12 year old forums are that there are a great many embarrassments to be found searching...
