1- Ten years ago, there were two rooms with 120 players each, plus a Brazilian room! Today, there is only one room, with a maximum of 70 players! There is a player in the number 1 spot who avoids competing for the top rank against high-level players; instead, he maintains his point total by playing against opponents with low point counts. And whenever someone threatens his position—as the player Claudio did—the moderator, who is of German nationality, blocks Claudio from the game! You need to be fair with the game's ranking system; if a "Ball 1" [top-ranked player] enters a lobby, they should be required to play against another "Ball 1"—otherwise, they should lose points! Many great players—on par with or even better than the player currently holding the top spot—try to compete for the ranking, but it’s impossible; so, just stop playing 8 Ball! The truth is, the 8 Ball ranking system is ruining the game itself. Furthermore, there’s a moderator who is complicit in maintaining the current number-one-ranked player—doing everything possible to keep them there, simply because they share the same nationality! Claudio was punished for having multiple accounts (for which he pays a subscription)! The player Crown also has other accounts, yet he wasn't punished! Where is the fairness in this game? This is why most of the top players are leaving the site!

Hello, Let me clarify the facts regarding this situation: Thorough Investigation & Administration Action: Not any senior moderator was the executive moderator in this case. The action taken against the account in question was not a quick or impulsive decision, nor was it based on player nationality or rank. It was the result of weeks of internal research and technical data analysis conducted directly by the site administration. Multi-Accounting & Subscriptions: Having multiple accounts with a subscription is allowed. However, having a paid account does not grant immunity from the rules, nor does it allow using multiple accounts to manipulate game rankings, farm points, or abuse the system. Privacy Policy: As a general rule, we do not discuss specific technical details, evidence, or account data of individual bans in the public forum. Moderation on FlyOrDie is strictly impartial and based on facts. If the affected player wishes to inquire about or appeal their sanction, they can contact Support directly.

this seems to have been caused by the change to the rating system whereby no rating is lost providing you play a game a week. shaun is simply exploiting this rule. i think it should go back to how it was before ie losing x amount per day. regards, martin
