Gracias por responder. Bastante sencillo, ahora me causa la duda, donde podría ver todas las posibles variables y tags que puedo modificar en los xml y json. Algo así como una documentación, o una lista de valores validos para implementar las tecnologias, las civs o los bonus de unidades.

if privileged from the moderators or whomever with the respective authority (i was just makin up ideas btw), they would not be normal players but admins and hence the term vigilantism won't apply. And i think you tend to think everything is related to you or eric or Akentas. Sorry, this is a general topic and i want the language to be better in this game. Because it kills my fun. It kills the fun of many players. It hurts, it offends. And if people don'T see anything is done against this culture, they will leave the game. And this is not a good prospect, because you know, i love this game. This is my only motivation behind my post !

hello, the player named Vetsikas left the game after losing his army due to his own attack. it was a rated game. there is also another issue i would like to bring to your attention. in this game, Vetsikas was rated 1357, and this was only 3 days ago (june 10, 2026). today (june 13, 2026), Vetsikas is rated 1711. it appears that Vetsikas is inflating his rating by playing 1v1 matches against fake accounts (possibly bots). as you can see here, even though the game start time is 19:14, the account "muricaa234" resigned twice at 19:14. that's two wins within a single minute. In some of the chat logs (I share), he even appears to acknowledge the situation himself, implying that these accounts are bots. He also makes comments such as, "I will show up on the leaderboard, and you will look at me" in addition, he regularly hosts rated games with the 0 minute wonder victory condition enabled. he then invites people to play 1v1 matches. since many players do not carefully check the settings, Vetsikas quickly advances to phase 3, builds a wonder, and immediately "wins" the game. when people complain, he often responds by accusing them using various manipulative arguments. i do not know whether the administration will take any action against a player who reached 1711 rating within 3 days under these circumstances. however, at the very least, people have a right to know that he is a scammer and should be aware of his behavior. thank you for your time.

thank you @Akentas for refining and adding some thoughts. I also think these ingame moderators should follow a clear and published Code of Conduct. And if they abuse power, there privileges should be withdrawn of course. The sanctions should have a clear response to given escalation level. first mute.... then timeout and so on ... bans only for repeated misbehaviour.

Yes agreed. i can modify your idea... 1. More in game moderators pick from the regular players who spends a lot of time in the game, this way most of the time there will be someone who is playing and observing if anything bad happening. 2. They should have the power to mute form lobby, give TIMEOUT like short time 'ban' from the lobby to abusive or toxic players or alt fake accounts. But before doing that, they should always take screen shots for justification and post them in a moderator group chat. This way bias decisions or power abuse will not happen.

i get the impression ... that without a real sanction system that works, there will not be a solution. There will always be impolite people with bad manners, toxic behaviour and threats. I like your initiative @Seleucids to call on the responsibility and morale of the players but you directly got an example in here, that this call is unfortunately maybe not working ... and i fear it won't work the game. Why? Because there is no sanction on beeing mean in the game. The maximum you get for being very offensive and unacceptable so far, is maybe a discussion on a discord server or the forums, in which the offender can make himself be seen as the victim again and so forth .. it is basically just tiring. We have 4 different chat levels in the game (main lobby, game lobby, game chat and spec chat), and the moderators only observe the main lobby. So when something bad is happening there, sometimes they react, if certain language is used, they will be removed automatically by the modbot. That is just not enough, dear community I would really like to discuss about this topic, because recently many really bad examples took place, that again lead to someone quit playing the game after beeing insulted/threatened verbally. With all the blablablamegame fllow up. I want to start to throw some thoughts in .... What about if two handfull of trusted people (elected by the moderators or so) who are often around and actively playing are given admin rights and the privileges to kick or ban people based on the rules of the game from any of the aforementioned levels. So sanctions are immediate and directly implemented. No time lag, no discussions, no blame game .... just kick/ban, end of the story. I am quite sure, that offenses and toxicity would drop significantly. And this would help the game on the long run. Please add some ideas ... and @Seleucids, if you think this discussion should not be takin part here, then i can also open a new thread. I don't want to say that it is useless, to call for responsibility and raise awareness... i just doubt that this is enough!

imagine mods aren't online rn or else

@feneur @Stan`pls ban the bot accounts

This is not eric @Seleucids . i just talked with him in game.

the real eric is only slightly less toxic and more homophobic

I'm diagonalo ...

Ok, so this is already one case raised by diagonalo against Akentas but was unfortunately locked. Now you can explain your story in another open thread. Btw Eric, if I remember correctly, you also host a lot of TG and you did get along with Akentas? What happened between you?

but then also let other people host games

@Seleucids look at his responses not only in lobby but also in the thread beating about the bush when he decided in an instant to just ban me forever for fun or because he is a bully. HE CAN BAN WHOEVER HE WANTS

You can create a new topic to explain to us what Akentas did wrong. We do want to hear from you too. This particular thread is not the place for this discussion and the posts don't make much sense to us.

@Seleucids I see your point but in my mind you are giving Akentas platform to reaffirm things that really require no explaination with exactly 0 effort and stab me in the back whilst he is at it. literally he only reported me because he saw I was having fun in other peoples games so I get muted from lobby

YOU INSTEAD HOST GAMES ALL DAY EVERY DAY EVERY SINGLE TIME WHEN THERE COULD POSSIBLE A TG NOT HOSTED BY YOU IN ORDER TO CENTRALIZE AND EXCLUDE LITERALLY DONT PLAY THE VICTIM LIKE I WOULD CREATE ALTS AND HARRASS YOU IN YOUR OWN GAME IF YOU DIDNT BECAUSE YOU COULDNT BAN ME THAT IS AGAIN JUST VICTIM BLAMING JUST TRHWOING THAT PREEMPTIVLEY OUT THERE

erictommy01, please read the title of the thread again. You are doing exactly what we don't want. Now, I don't fully understand the context behind all this, but please stop this spam or this thread will get locked. I don't want it to be locked. Please go vent somewhere else. Start a separate topic

@Dunedan @Seleucids please read these replies both mine and his. Btw this is not Eric, reading the replies you guess who it is impersonating. And instead of hollow accusations, lies, show me proof, if I have done or said anything bad or wronged anyone, I will apologize for my mistakes and face the consequences. I have zero intension of making someone quit, neither I have the power to do anything since I am just a normal player. All I want is to be left alone from all the harassment and threats. And enjoy this game with my friends in peace.

THIS IS DIFFERENT AND I AM BEING HONEST ABOUT MY FEEELING BECAUSE ANYTHING ELSE ENCOURGES YOUR TWISTED SENSE OF JUSTICE

Well said @Seleucids. Completely agree. I want to remind everyone the first message you see when you join the lobby everytime you log in: So, if anyone getting harrasssed, take screenshots and and follow these instructions. I have heard stories and faced it myself, people trying to play victim or changing the narrative after commiting an offense for their own agenda or sometimes may be for just some quick trolling and laugh. So, first of all, if you are facing something bad don't tackle it with firing back bad words, please don't give in to anger. Use in game settings like MUTE, KICK, BAN. Saying things bad back at harassment will muddy the situation more. BE THE BIGGER PERSON, have patience, document what's happening with Screenshots and then get in touch with the moderators.

I want to report myself for being the most toxic 0ad player alive.

To add to that: If you encounter toxicity or anything else which violates the Terms of Use of the multiplayer lobby, please notify one of the lobby moderators about it, so they can take action. That's best done by sending them a private message including details about the incident (screenshot, replays, ...) here in the forums. We can only act, if we are aware of such incidents.

Yes, that was my chief inspiration.
