Dragon's Tale - a Massively Multiplayer Online RPG/Casino

[The1The0nly]

I know that your case would be solved too just like spliffbeanz.

Thank you very much for supporting spliffbeanz and I through our cases.

And sorry to everyone for my last post turning into a bit of a rant.  XD

[The1The0nly]

Well, we’re five months deep and I’m still locked out.  I have tried most of the available communication avenues, but received no response.  The flurry of hack attempts Teppy mentioned to SpliffBeanz is still my only lead.  I’m not sure if I was a target or a suspect, though the latter seems to explain more.  Since I haven’t explicitly stated this yet, I did not and would not participate in such malicious acts.  I find Teppy’s honesty in admitting his mistake with SpliffBeanz refreshing, and in line with his typical patterns of fairness and integrity.  Unfortunately, his practice of taking punitive action against suspects without engaging in communication with them yields unnecessary false positives.  Perhaps more troubling, it effectively closes the door to appeal, making it all but impossible for those falsely categorized as malicious to attempt to correct the record.  Even in SpliffBeanz’s case, Teppy specified that he just happened to notice the mistake while dealing with an unrelated issue.  I can only anxiously hope that this is a temporary practice stemming from Teppy’s busy schedule, and not a philosophical indifference toward or rejection of the Blackstone principle.

While I shouldn’t and won’t deliberately hide this disturbing flaw in the game’s administration, I don’t think focusing on the negative is my most effective path forward.  Having recently read The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, I want to act within what Stephen Covey defines as a win-win, rather than win-lose, paradigm.

To this end, when discussing Dragon’s Tale, I will continue to highlight its genuinely positive aspects, which in my opinion are abundant.  I will also write another forum post, one aimed at introducing Dragon’s Tale to non-Entropia players.  Any suggestions for forums I should publish it to would be greatly appreciated.  Other ideas to promote the game are as well.  I’d like my actions to make it unavoidably evident that I don’t fit the malicious hacker stereotype.  Hopefully seeking an outcome advantageous to myself, Teppy, and the community as a whole, will be a more effective approach than an adversarial one.

I did not think that this game to have players playing it. At first, I was very confused about why this thread was triggered again but after reading you guys discussing the matter I want to join the game and try to log in on my old account (I still have the credentials). And I have around 0.02 BTC on that account if I remember correctly. I remember I used to play this game when I just started with that fine at 2013 and I have some friends who also there trying to get their hands around Bitcoin but after many failed attempts they left the bitcoin community.

I have seen it before as well but I haven't played it before, maybe I will give it a try. I like the aspect of mmorpg in crypto world but I think we would need like a video or something that is basically someone starting from zero and doing something successful, of course there are other options and other ways to play but showing just one version would be great.

Like maybe a youtube series of someone that has been playing the game for a long time so an expert in the game, starts a new character and shows us the first maybe 10 hours of gameplay on what to do, that way we can actually know what to expect when we join and play the game. I remember trying to understand the whole concept and even downloading the game but failed do anything so I deleted and haven't played at all (maybe 10 min max) so that type of video help would be the best marketing.

This is a marvelous idea.  Second Life has Anshe Chung.  Entropia has Neverdie.  We need a Dragon's Tale equivalent!

Second life and Linden Dollars!
Second life works today? Wow survive! I wouldn't have bet on it. 
I've played in the past SL, is funny only 10 minuts

Yup, I had a similar experience with Second Life.  It was slightly too much of a sandbox, but might be worth trying again some day.

If you haven't yet, try one of the "Latest Client UDP Mode" options in the eGenesis Launcher.  I can't verify that the game is up since I'm still locked out of my account, but this was the solution to a similar problem I experienced in the past.

I've been finding this project of introducing Dragon's Tale on casino forums surprisingly difficult.  Despite explicitly noting that I was not an owner, employee, or paid to write my posts, it seems that positive casino reviews, or at least the one I wrote, are rarely well-received by forum staff.

I recall there being an initiative tied to the bonus soldier statues which encouraged DT players to promote the game on casino forums, but I can't remember which forums, or if there were guidelines for formulating such promotions in a way that typically isn't interpreted as spam.  It would be awesome if anyone who remembers the details of this initiative could share them here.

The guy was last active since March 2020 so there's no other way you can communicate but through forum's PM. For this game, how many players are still actively playing DT?
It's been a long time since I have commented on this thread and seems that there is not that much update regarding the game.

I don't know much about the mechanics of the game and its item per se. But okay, we are there if the item is rare or not but what I'm telling you is that the guy hasn't been online for four months and didn't left any contact. But as per his instruction, you can leave him a message and hope that he'll come back again to transact you.

It is obvious at least to me that there is going to be a great push for this technology, just think about the savings this will bring to the casino industry, while it is obvious that many people are going to like to keep gambling in physical CasinoTOP casinos if the environments are realistic enough and instead of bringing a single player experience they make it multiplayer it will not be that different from going to a physical casino with the advantage of being able to gamble from the comfort of your own home.

[The1The0nly]

I guess I’ve pretty much lost hope in regaining access to my account for the foreseeable future.  I’ve been locked out and ignored with no explanation at all for a year and a half, despite attempting to contact Teppy through the website’s Contact form, email, ATITD email, this forum, Reddit, snail mail, etc.

I had never been warned or accused of any transgressive conduct over my several years as a member of the community.  If this is a disciplinary story akin to that of SpliffBeanz, then it is a showcase of how an established player with a clean record is treated in light of a first alleged offense (apparently-indefinite ban upon suspicion, with no communication or process for correcting false suppositions of wrongdoing).

The more sinister possibility is that I was just straight up banned for being a withdrawal liability; my account does have some hundreds of BTM from winnings stored on it.  This “executive decision” wouldn’t best explain the timeline surrounding the lock, but the delay might be accounted for by Teppy’s intermittent hiatuses.  I really wanted to offer the benefit of the doubt here, as I’d never seen Teppy act unethically in the past, and while perhaps it’s still possible that everything is just a misunderstanding, the passage of time erodes trust.  Maybe this is nothing more than another horror story about centralized control, whose moral is the reminder for us to demand that our game currencies and assets live on a blockchain.

This is an old game and upon checking the link it redirects me to https://www.desert-nomad.com/

Is this still Dragon's Tale and they just changed the name? The name now is "A Tale in the Desert 8". If this is still the same game that you are complaining they have a discord channel on the website which you can raise your concern.

https://discordapp.com/invite/hHfbujH

They are two seperate game both being run by Andrew Tepper. Both are still alive and seem to have very few players left. I wouldnt trust him in the slightest if anyone playing reads this. Im gonna repost my situation between me and Andrew now so more might see

I know this is a bit old, but very worth noting.

"Dragon's Tale" and "A Tale in the Desert" are distinct games that are radically different, and the statement above is very wrong, was very wrong at the time of writing, and was very wrong years before that too.

Both were owned by eGenesis a long time ago, but while they share the same engine, and thus were available through the same launcher, Teppy abandoned aTitD during its 6th iteration (which ran from the end of 2011 till mid-2015) and Pluribus games took over for the remainder of T6 then T7, then Desert Nomad took over from T8 onward.

This discord is indeed aTitD's discord channel, but I can tell you here what you would hear on Discord: to get account service on DT, you would need to somehow reach out to whoever can do that, but said person isn't to be found on this Discord server.
You best bet would be the mail mentioned a couple pages back in this thread or the old site's contact forms.
