      Hi everyone.

      There has been a fair few glitches on OPPrison throughout the time it has been open, and sadly I believe that it is it's time to be reset. I'd like others opinions on this, but please, don't just vote based on the fact that you have items and have worked so hard for something because quite frankly, the economy on there, or at least what was somewhat, to an extent an economy has been ruined and reduced to rubble.

      Firstly, I'll go through a few glitches that have occurred on OPPrison(not in order).

      1. Glitched Picks

      When the server was first released, certain picks that enchants didn't end in a zero, for example the 135 Alpha became glitched. This basically rendered donor kit picks somewhat useless as you could just get voter keys and use them to get your own pick that was a lot better then any pick that could be obtained from a donor kit. This glitch was soon patched by making the picks that were obtained from the Voter crates different enchants. This meant that the picks that were glitched remained in circulation, thus creating the start to an economy. You see, these picks because 'rare' and actually worth something, whereas before this was changed the only real things worth anything were voter crate keys and armor from God/Titan kits.

      Picks such as old alphas, unbolded omegas, old lycaons, old starters, old berserkers ect actually became worth something more then the voter keys that were used to get them. It was the start of an economy - Something unique to MV.

      2. The temporary addition of Mobs

      This was truly a great thing to happen to MV OPPrison. It really did extend the economy much further then it was meant to and it gave the server and certain items a purpose, and increased the demand for items of more sentimental value. The usefulness of items was thrown out the door other then Picks, and this glitch really did make OPPrison more unique. The addition of mob spawning allowed people to get a limited supply of mob drops, making them worth something. All in all, this gave items such as string, lapis blocks, enchantment bottles, gunpowder ect a price tag, and allowed us access to more items such as fishing rods and item frames, as well as leather armor.

      3. The addition of enchantment tokens

      Originally when the server first came out, Enchantment tokens didn't actually work, and surprisingly, when this was added there were quite a few problems. Besides the duping of etokens into the negatives, this allowed players to add fortune enchantments onto their picks, making glitched picks even more of a 'problem' - Or so we thought. As I explained, any pick that's enchant was put over a zero on as the last digit became glitched, so by having fortune tokens, this allowed people to add fortune onto picks, making them glitched. This made the MV OPPrison game mode even more unique, and when fortune was removed it made these picks worth even more.

      I'm not going to blab on forever as I really cannot be bothered, but my point is that regardless of whether these glitches were intended to happen or not, majority of them came out for the better, and actually created an economy on OPPrison. I believe that this made items actually worth something, rather then just a bunch of blocks and picks in kits.

      Why should this game mode be reset?

      I really do understand that people have worked their booties off in this game mode, as have I, but you see, I have noticed that with one current glitch, the server is beyond repair. After speaking with someone, I realised that regardless of whether the duplication glitch was fixed, the items were still in circulation.

      I'm not here to beg and plead with people to support this, but I am merely here to sway your opinion on this. In order for this game mode to reach it's full potential, I believe that it needs a reset. You see, this dupe glitch has made anything that was made valuable from the other glitches, unvaluable. I'm not sure if that makes sense, but I really hope it does.

      I'm going to avoid pointing out how the glitch is done, and I request that others avoid this too as the 'higher ups' have already been informed. Anything else I have to write is for the staff which I request that they do not leak.

      Thanks guys, and if you have any questions I will happily answer within reason.

      Hello Staff.
      I have made this hidden as I really do not want the rest of the community to see this. I know for a fact that this game mode is in dire need of a reset. I have witnessed people duping picks that are of extremely high value, and I cannot stress enough how much this has ruined the economy on here.

      I have been there since day one on OPPrison, and I have witnessed every glitch that it has been through. Certain glitches made the game mode what it was, and I believe that if a reset was to happen that it would require such 'glitches' to temporarily take place again.

      If possible, and if Crew or Cyp see this I request that I can have a private word with them as what I have to say is important, that is if you are indeed thinking of resetting the game mode.

      Anyone who has played OPPrison long enough knows that mob drops, glitched picks and etokens in large amounts ect are rare, but now, due to this duplication glitch, they are going to and will be rendered useless, thus leaving OPPrison without an economy, or at least a barren one that any new player cannot possibly enjoy. I have told Terrick about this issue and he quite easily found the problem, and said it would be fixed asap, but fixing the dupe glitch will not fix the server. Please, Cyp/Crew - Hear me out.

      OP Prison also contains plots, like creative. And a reset would be devastating to the server. Many people would leave. I myself would leave, as I do not want to start all over at A mine and I lose my amazing shop and items.

      What is the point of playing a game mode where everything is worth well.. Nothing?

      I do not play Op Prison myself but I fell many people would not want to restart being that they worked hard for the rank they are at or they worked hard on their plot.

      You guys do understand that anything that has been worked for is literally worth nothing. Personally I've lost more then I've gained from this glitch, but quite literally, people have duped beyond the point of this game mode becoming playable.

      There isn't a point in playing for items anymore. With a simple log out and log back in, you can dupe whatever is in your inv/echest.

      Like i said i really know nothing about OP Prison but i feel like if a reset were to happen many people were to leave like Scorvix said. Is the reset worth it if we are going to loose players?

      Is it worth playing a game mode that is as worthless as it is? A reset would allow certain people to get ahead, and if it was planned properly, these 'glitches' that made the economy as successful as it was could be re added.

      It's losing players right now. What would you rather, players leaving or the server eventually becoming unplayable, leading to EVERYONE leaving.

      A server reset would make most people who are rank Z, who mine for hours everyday to quit. I myself have managed to gain a lot of rank-ups recently, and for that to be taken away, I'd have to leave also.

      lol
      People actually play OP Prison? (jk) But seriously the server has been a problem from the start. Rank issues with buycraft as well as all the glitches above.
      I don't play OP prison because PlotMe is aids and brings tons of spammers. Same reason I don't frequent Creative servers.
      I hope it is reset.
      It's so broke atm it's all you can do.

      If it is to reset, it'll have to bring back all the glitches pickaxes and Enchantment Tokens will not be taken out as that is what made the OPPrison currency. Since they fixed the duplication glitches, there will no be as much, which will make these items worth even more. I don't know how it'd work though.

      No Support. I don't know what dupe your talking about.
      • Lots of people will leave
      • The picks are still unique and worth a lot

      Exactly. It's been through so many glitches and bugs, including name change problems with plots(which could be fixed before it's released), and other glitches that I've stated. The problem is that with some of these glitches, for example the mob drop one, they actually created the economy on there. These items made it so that something more then a Titan/God kit was worth something. Heck, at the start of OPPrison, I was selling God armour for 5bil/piece. Also, the glitches with the picks - they gave people a chance to mine quicker, yet it STILL took forever to get to Z.

      Regardless of what anyone says, this recent glitch with duping has ruined the server. I literally have a recording of someone duping(I used invsee), and during it he puts 7 old lycaons with 1k explosive in his inv. Anyone who understands how etokens work on OPPrison will understand how much that is, and this guy CONTINUED duping various other items that were once worth a lot.

      I'm not saying people haven't put a hella lot of effort in, but that effort has gone to waste. I, myself will admit that I no lifed opprison since the start. A lot of people did. I've lost so much because of this glitch and I could easily get it back by duping but the server is ruined. It's useless playing a server that is a place where everything is duped.

      I agree that the glitches will have to be strategically put in place, and that is what I plan to talk to Cyp about. I know them all and how to recreate the events. The etokens somewhat ruined mining due to people gaining explosive on their picks. Heck, I've done a LOT on this server - I've lost so much stuff and I've witnessed how much has been duped.

      Read above or I'll talk to you on TS.

      Exactly. All it is, is the richer people duping more and more and ruining what was found to be the economy. The server is done for. It's like survival - you can't play a server and not expect it to ever get reset. The amount of problems opprison has had from the start is unbelievable.

      Heck, they could even release Ares after a reset.
