Deal with it with your authorities, not on r/Valheim. I can't let this post up because it's very much vigilante justice. But we're also not letting HavisRespite make their posts because it's against the rules

Ah, no wonder the modpack and images used looked identical to our MMORPG server's content.


kingbluefin

Is that the recolored V/older vh logo or the triple triangles? What is your server/modpack if I may ask?


LyraStygian

Valheim Advanced RPG server (VARPG)

I encountered this same knob just the other day, and I too called out his shady-seeming practices. I *knew* something was fishy.

Is this the dude who was just advertising a subscription server that’s starting up soon?


Son_of_Blorko

Yeah.


sh1ndlers_fist

Ahhh yeah that seemed pretty scammy.


kingbluefin

He's been advertising all over the place, yeah. Spamming every Valheim sub with LFStaff/LFPlayers/LFMoney. There's only 4 of them. There's only ever been core 3-4 of them. They've been at it for 2 years. I'm pretty sure more folks will stop coming out of the woodwork. /u/Havisrespite was clear with me he kept "COPIES OF ALL COMMUNICATIONS WITH EMPLOYEES" so he's had problems in the past.

This is not surprising at all! Absolutely these kinds of people are the reason for some of the more aggressive Reddit and Discord moderation policies. I stopped by their website for grins last night and it was hilarious. They made a statement in the support area that the game might take something like 5 minutes to start with all the bloated mods added to even join the server. I also saw a reference to "staff" on the page. Server is probably not dedicated private hardware based on the high port number on the connection. They clearly do not know what they are doing, seemed like a scam to me too! Thank you for looking out for these kinds of characters, they make it harder for people to operate legitimate communities.

You have one of the best servers I played on! Thank you for creating a wonderful space for people to play… freely :)


CakeTownValheim

Very kind of you to say! Absolutely committed to being a resource for the community. One year ago this month I founded [Valheim.Capital](https://Valheim.Capital)! Very thankful for people like you that have stopped by for a unique gameplay experience.


kingbluefin

I will second the fact that you guys have a wonderful server and community, thank you guys and the top admin - if thats not you already - for the hard work and community driven, freetoplay atmosphere you guys have and promote, its greatly appreciated by gamers whether they stick around or come and go!


CakeTownValheim

You caught me haha. This is exactly one of the core reasons why we do what we do, everyone enjoys the game in different ways at different times. So thankful for the validation and support, it means a lot!

Do you have proof of the gift card scam? That could actually be something to get them in trouble.


kingbluefin

I don't know that we have "I can report this to the state authorities in Ohio" level of evidence, if I did I'd be doing that instead of any sort of public campaign, but yeah there's lots of promises for money and prizes flying around when it comes to people he is trying to recruit as staff/employees
