What a maniac. You've got banned because you are toxic and we don't want you in our server. Just grow up and move on.

I was expecting some backlash from you, but I didn't think you were going to crave for attention like this. This sounds desperate. I'm not even gonna take the time to read all. It just shows the kind of person you are. I'm glad to see people like you gone and banned from the server. By writing this post the only thing you're achieving is shaming yourself.

I'm always open and transparent with the community and this just confirms that I've taken the right decision in banning you. I'm not going to share the stupid things you said to me. I'll spare you that. It is obvious you're only feeling like this because you were banned and you wanted to still be playing in our server. But unfortunately you're not worthy. Also glad to see Prontera Princess gone. What a liar, huh?

And that's it. People are free to believe what they want. My aim is to run a server that is a safe place for friendly and cool people, and you are certainly not welcome in our community. This post confirms it.

I've already said this and I'll say it again: We are not afraid of purging bad elements like you and your sh*tposting was already expected. I've already received positive feedback from key players that didn't like you either, also said they knew you to be toxic from other servers, so we are glad about the decision we've made in banning you.

I'm just so sorry for you, dude! Find a server that accepts your toxicity. Also get therapy, honestly. But don't let me or our server live rent-free in your mind. Or do, it's up to you. But I'm moving on. Not wasting a single more second with you.

Hey, Aisu/Princess here. 

Didn't want to reply on this matter at first, because I thought it's over. But it's really funny that Randgris changed his reply 3 times today, just for it to feel less desperate and more blameful towards us that left. Funny and also insulting.

All I want to say is that I didn't feel safe and comfortable on his server knowing he doxxed someone for leaving a bad review, banned a lot of people without talking to them nor his CM staff about it, heavily insulted someone that was banned for a single curse word, threatened people on Discord with dox if they leave the server/bad review, insulted and pointed fingers at everyone.

He showed complete distrust in everyone, even tho he's supposed to be a community leader. Can't take criticism, bans on sight. And then proceeds to completely delete everything so noone knows, even his own staff. In many instances he had shown symptoms of really compulsive mood swings/rage swings.

I was having a blast on that server, due to the community there. But the truth must be told and I don't want to be a part of it anymore, due to my own safety and concerns.

Thank you all for reading and please, take care.

Had I known you were a liar Princess, I would have banned you on day one. 

I was already waiting for your take. You are a no one to me and I couldn't care less about what you think.

Glad to see you gone as well.

By the way, I won't be engaging in this juvenile banter. So not checking this anymore.

Move on and get a life the two of you already.

Be safe.

Not exactly the greatest way for a server owner to conduct themselves in this thread, methinks.

Hey folks,

im a player on eldrithro aswell, and i have done some research the past two days on what happened here.

First however, i would like to point out that i have past experiences with OP aka Pumpernickel on other servers, all of which made me cautious about him. Further chats with different players about their experience with him throughout the past days have solidified my impression that he seems like a toxic, manipulative and abusive person.

For the "bad sides" of the server he lists, me and my folks have done some testing and gathered evidence in the past 2 days and can confirm that the reflect damage in safety wall behaviour is actually in game and that there are/were peoples with warp to AL3 and other MVP maps. Also since the beginning it has been known that there is no real protection against grf edits yet.

While i can confirm these issues, i can also confirm that OP and his crew abused all those issues when instead they should have reported them as such.
To say now the admin is at fault for his inexperience instead of blaming OP for his abuses is a strategy called Gaslightingvictim blaming, where a victim gets blamed for the abuses of the perpetrator. Tbh this behaviour fits very well into my impression of Pumpernickel.

Furthermore it came to my knowledge that OP is actually only out for revenge for him getting banned and trying kill the server. I have proof to back this claim, however i will not be sharing it publicly due to privacy reasons. Im open to have my claim get verified by RMS-officials tho if they are willing to do that.

I for my part will continue to play on EldrithRO as are many others i talked to in the last 2 days.

@Princess
Im actually sad that you are leaving, since you were a nice member of the community. I dont know how you got involved into this s*** but i suspect Pumpernickel reached out to you like he reached out to many other players on the server trying to convince them to quit. I wish you well on your journey.

Ive decided not to add all my evidence, because this would be me pointing fingers at other peoples. I dont want any more drama in this servers community and also im concerned about the harassment peoples could get from a person like pumpernickel. you can call it source protection if you want.

thanks for the read

tldr: OP seems like a toxic, manipulative, abusive dude, he was hardcore abusing and cheating and got banned before that came to light. In this post hes using a tactic called gaslighting victim blaming to try to kill the server and i have proof for that.

Edit: affer some research i replaced gaslighting with victim blaming, thanks for the pointer and sorry for not doing my research on that before posting. I probably wont involve myself here anymore. For me, pumpernickels reaction in lashing out even more, is proofing my point anyway. Also please note that i deliberately do not talk about all the other stuff that was posted. I only found it important to point out that pumpernickels motives for posting this are malicious.

Man why do so many people throw out this term to describe arguments? Gaslighting is when you manipulate someone into questioning their perception of reality by convincing them they're imagining things/are crazy.  Feels like the buzzword to use for max points in a callout.

I'll butt in support of notlikethat.
I was one of the people who were casually strolling this site when I butted in EldrichRO's review section. I just saw the owner causally doxxing the person who left the mid/orange review by revealing both the IP and the email.
Maybe I could've screenshotted that, but honestly, I didn't think much about it outside of... "Yeah... I don't want to get close to this server anymore". I genuinely hope you guys didn't sign him to his server with a genuine email.

Just stepping down here a last time to respond to the last comment made by "JollyOhGolly', a.k.a. Kikuri or Colette.

This is a person I regret having trusted. I had entrusted her as the Community Manager, but lately she had been trying to convince people that I'm a tyrant, that I censor people, and so on. Anyways, I had been warned about Colette being abusive and manipulative.

I'm thankful to Pumpernickel for posting this conversation: https://imgur.com/a/1TC5tSx
This is Kikuri/Colette/JollyOhGolly talking to Pumpernickel today about how she had been talking to everyone, so "players would know the truth" and so on. When I posted this conversation to her, she left the server immediately. A traitor and a liar.

Anyways, my advice is for others to be careful with this person as well, do not trust Kikuri as she is very manipulative and abusive. She enjoys RPing and as she says, "has no ego at all", so it's very easy for her to lie and pretend to be one person but she'll stab in you the back when she has the opportunity. Other players had already left the server because she tried to manipulate them. I regret having trusted her.

PS.: Kikuri, if you want to sound like another person, you should change your wording. It's really easy to find out when it's you typing. Also, "butt in"? I was expecting more from you.

People are free to speak anything they want about me. Also, people are free to believe in whatever they read. Some people really have nothing better to do than sh*tposting on forums and they just like to watch the circus catching fire. They don't even take the time to find out what is true and what is not. Trolls will always be around the Internet. RO unfortunately has a lot of toxic players in the community that would rather spend their time spreading their hate instead of playing the game.

My server is not for players like you. I would never want to be friends with people like you. I'm nice to all those who are nice, and I really don't care what you guys think of me. Honestly. I'm not forcing anyone to play on the server.

This is not the first time people have come at me. I only care about those friendly, cool players that are having a good time and are respectful within the community.

I'm thankful that you guys have showed your true selves, and with that, I bid adieu! 

[JollyOhGolly]

My person, if I may,
If a person:
-Doesn't share the same name
-Says to have never joined the server
-Speaks in a drastically different way
-Isn't a she/her but a they/them (albeit, rip NB options)

It might just so happen that I'm not whoever you claim me to be. I didn't even know what Ragnarok Online was, until I joined O***RO.
Idk what to say, my good person. You seem really to be scared by the RP thing - not sure what the RP community did to you - but whatever that is, pretending to be another person on the forums for... 3 weeks(?) isn't RP.

I have seen how this administrator behaves, he makes a mistake then he rigthfully faces consequences of his bad desicions and he plays the victim card to appeal to emotion.

He has a very bad history of making dumb and rushed desicions and when people call him out on it he plays victim or denies everything, this dude also deletes everything he doesn't like on his discord, I remember asking about what parts of renewal were added to the server and when I saw the hats that were added which completely destroy classic balance and when seeing what was the direction I said the server wasn't for me and gave a very respecful opinion on it and even told him that it was fine that he didn't needed to change anything about the server because I disagreed with the direction etc and that was it. A few minutes later he deleted all of our conversation and a few days later he just banned me from his discord without me doing anyhing lmao.

He also went to RMS discord to play victim about some dude that was DDOSING him or something, which for the record I believe is wrong and I said so multiple times to him, but many questioned to him the reason why this was happening and it was because he out of the blue decided to do a server wipe in the beta and he denied it but the person attacking him did it exactly because he wasn't expecing a wipe, I catched the administrator himself in his own discord admiting that he was not going to wipe, I posted a screenshot of his own words on discord and guess what he did? he played victim and denied everything just like Amber Turd lmao.

Here is the pic of him saying there is not going to be any wipes:



This is the same dude showing his true colors:



I wouldn't recommend anyone playing on this server because this administrator seems really unprofesional and prone to taking terrible desicions and then playing victim when facing the consequences of said desicions and ultimately having complete mental break downs and telling others to end themselves.

You trying to make a joke of me / us, that you are "living rent-free in my mind", is hilarious when you made sure to edit those posts multiple times over the course of many hours.

The behaviour this man shows here is the same behaviour he is showing on his Discord, if you say something that he does not like.

LMAO this post edits... at least this tells us that he knows that what he does is wrong and changes it to appear more profesional, like I said, bad administrator, full of emotion and out of control.
