The beacon is all gun games and people flying around, yes literally flying, or jumping up 5 stories and back down, spraying peps thru the windows, and the reward was 1 satchel charge. 

 Boosting is when a cop rides with a crime, the crime ram raids and gives the loot to the cop. 

So in the beacon this would be basically throwing to friends, as is done in allot of missions in NA. 

They have low ranks they make up off alt accounts, run multiple pc and characters or they use friends. 

One side throws to the other, who gain kills and gold. 

  nice seeing ya again, the discord kgb threw me out, so i dont really play much anymore 

wow thats crazy tho

There was always this urge to grind for rewards if you get them f2p way. Problem is this mattered more when APB had population of 5000 people. When there used to be 2 full social districts and 3rd opened with 50 people on it while list of districts was so big you had to scroll to choose where you want to login.

Now when pop is barely 200 people, rewards are irrelevant because you got nobody to whom you can show off your grinding. 

 

Aside note, many people returned as expected and majority of them got mentality still stuck in a 9 year old brain by spamming EZ after each round, being toxic, rage whispering insulting and bullying when you kill them in beacon...like 1 death matters...like you just dont respawn milisec later and proceed to onslaught. 

 

So even though I missed pop, this reminded me what majority of APB pop used to be. Toxic cancer childish ego tripping children who will mentally never grow up.

nope, they kicked me out, no reason given, no warning. 

So I spent a week trying to figure out why, If it was personal, and 

a certain group of persons got me banned, or a dirty gm. 

We can only speculate what i might have done, but all I did that day was 

speak about the causes of lung cancer with someone who chatted me up. 

convo lead to use of various intoxicants used in my teens, so 30+ years ago. 

I in no way condoned such use, we talked about me smoking 2 packs a day and 

now im down to half a pack a day. 

 people in game are saying i hacusated, I never mentioned a name, another player 

asked me how i was doing?, n I answered that not to good cuz id just been hacked. 

meaning id just been in a mission and i felt the opp hacked me, but i dint say a name or 

elaborate or rant about it. It was just Good morning how are You. 

 So lo gave a nice ban for a xmas present. 

 I think it was a Set Up. The others knew the rules better than me, and i was in two apb discords. 

One has looser rules than the official site. So they took my ability to see or make friends and made xmas 

very depressing.  I only joined the discord platform for apb, i have no other servers.

I'd never been banned for anything anywhere in any game.

Had the discord system or the mod messaged me as to why and what happend, i might not be so salty. 

 I've tried to get back in, even via the invite from maglo. No can do, it has a red message says we cannot 

accept your invite. 

 So i can assume, but have no clear knowledge of what i did. 

The mod did not know I was one of very few legits in NA.

I feel I deserve a second chance, I wouldn't be able to use the chat at all because I'd be afraid of 

breaking a rule, but if they let me back in, i may resume paying LO. 

 Nothing I can do about it, I can't trust anyone now. 

Only like two people in there have names that match whats in game, so ya dont know 

who your talking to. So if I were reinstated I wouldn't say a thing, just monitor for what the devs say. 

I messaged matt but he dint reply. So they hate me, They arrested Santa Claus. 

 I always dress up like santa, but we dont have the xmas gift box we used to get. 

Not much xmas spirit in game, I did my chemo/immune yesterday, n nurse asked why 

I was so depressed and down looking. I lied n said i didn't have enough coffee. 

Ya know, 1000 yard stare. Tell her no pain no issues.

xmas is always a bit depressing because of the challenge of getting to town, finding gifts ect. 

I don't do amazon, I do it old school.  My youngest son is up in Washington state, wife working 

never see her, We don't even have a tree this year.

I'm sorry to hear that - and it's odd to get kicked out without a warning tho.

Who would be interested in you getting banned to begin with? But if so, that sounds strange in order to set that up - however, I heard of mutes/kick/ban for a very little thing so I am not surprised tho.

Any number of old enemies or new ones, including hacks, banned, or your little group of gas lighters. 

Could be any of em, could be the bot. I am a heavily trolled person, they crash me up all the time.

Yes on a moral and legal level, not so much the perfect business model though.

I fronted them like 40 bucks when the dds was real bad n did not want anything, didn't need 

the g1c. I did it just to help LO financially to fight the dds issue. 

 

 For sure I won't be spending anymore till I'm given a reason why I was banned, have access to that discord, 

and of course the main thing, they have to have something to buy. 

What I Did Not See in beacon means I'm not trusting the AC at all. 

 Nope Mack Did Not see players jumping up 50 ft and shooting in thru windows.

I'm like Shultz in Hogans Hero's. I SEE NOTHING

You are referring to the protype and red hill event. more so the snipers. the spinner and jumpshootist. (yes there names are stupid) and the EOL snow storm. these guns have a modded heir and jump height thats roughly half of beacon. No cheats there, the beacon map just sucks. to vertical and the spawn zones are just  haphazardly placed leading to a lot of spawning and dying in the same frame.

 

as for being banned for the discord? not the first person i have heard who tried to access APB or FE's discord and were already banned. i suspect player GMs pulling and prebanning IPs from player account(s)

why they would do this? well the players in both games range from fun people to petty assholes. Don't know if anything can be done there.
