Ch.128″Give me proper compensation, you bastards.” (3)
by fnovelpia
The next day.
Nothing particularly interesting or exciting happened afterward.
Since we did cause a disturbance in the gallery, those of us who had cast “Mass Delete” as moderators…
Were all banned from the gallery for 7 days by the administration after they assessed the situation, but…
—————————————-
-[This isn’t too bad, right?]
-[Agreed]
-[They gave us compensation anyway, so letting them save face publicly isn’t a problem.]
-[No point asking for more at this point]
-[They had to do at least this much anyway.]
—————————————-
As everyone already knew, we had already achieved everything we wanted.
As another ranker said, if we demanded anything more…
We’d likely push the administration’s patience too far.
So we quietly collected our actual rewards, using the gallery access restriction as an excuse for an unofficial vacation.
Meanwhile, the administration posted notices about suppressing the moderators’ outburst.
It was a perfect opportunity for them to dispel their image of “incompetence” that had been building up among users.
Somehow, we both reached a reasonable compromise, creating what you might call a win-win relationship.
Of course, as a result, most of the users we had banned were released under the administration’s “amnesty”…
And because of that…

Title: Moderator bastards are fucking losers?

Content: [You have been banned verification image]
Can they just ban people randomly without any standards?
The previous mods were already doing whatever they wanted without standards
And all the troublemakers now are people without clans
These bastards definitely have no friends and don’t know how the gallery works
—————————————-
Thanks to that, users who had been banned and then amnestied reappeared throughout the gallery like resistance fighters.
They were busy cursing at me and the other rankers who were the main culprits of this incident, but…
—————————————-
Comments:
-[You got banned for posting disgusting images, then got amnesty and were released. Who are you to talk?]
-˪[That’s that and this is this](Original poster)
-[Those guys might be idiots but you’re definitely a bigger idiot]
-[Agreed]
-[Should we replace all the moderators?]
-[Why are these trolls so confident?]
—————————————-
Surprisingly, proving that their thinking process differed from normal people…
Despite having posted offensive images, their brazen attitude resulted in battlegrounds breaking out in the comments of their posts.
And others who received amnesty immediately resumed posting provocative content or carrying out attacks…

Sweet
Comments:
-[That guy got banned by the admin this time]
-[I checked his account earlier and it showed a 1-year ban, not just 15 days]

Some seemingly less intelligent individuals ended up being directly dealt with by the administration.
Various unusual situations continued to unfold.
Anyway, after wrapping up this incident and establishing a contact network with the rankers who had been playing solo…
I figured I wouldn’t care about community activities for a while.
Since I didn’t need to be a moderator for a week anyway…
I naturally decided to collect the rewards promised by the administration along with the newly posted notice.
Personally, I wasn’t expecting much, maybe some resources or…
What they call “gacha currency”… or I’d be grateful for even a single 10-pull ticket, but…
—————————————-
<General Notice>
<Event ‘Price of Goodwill’ ranking rewards will be distributed soon!>
<*This message is only visible to those who ranked.*>
<As you achieved 3rd place in the overall rankings, Commander, you will receive the following rewards:>
<Additional rewards have been added for accepting administrator authority.>
<Rewards: Random Causality Fixed 10-Pull Ticket x5, Minerals 100,000, Rare Resources 5,000, Rare Equipment Box x5>
—————————————-
“Oh.”
Surprisingly, the administration gave me a whopping 50-pull ticket along with…
Over 100,000 resources and equipment boxes…
“Ah, 50-pull, the name we’ve always been waiting for!”
“…Excuse me?”
Thanks to this, the negative feelings I had harbored toward the administration, knowingly or unknowingly, subsided…
I could immediately pledge my loyalty to the administration with a double-handed salute.
Of course, that thought didn’t last long.
There probably wouldn’t be limited gachas in this world anyway.
After receiving the reward, I immediately rushed to the “Dimensional Causality Whatever” and dumped all 50 pulls, but…
—————————————-
-<Common Resource Box x25>
-<Rare Resource Box x9>
-<Splendid Resource Box x3>
-<Common Equipment Box x7>
-<Rare Equipment Box x5>
-<Splendid Equipment Box x1>
—————————————-
“What the fuck.”
Realizing that my first gacha in a long time resulted in complete failure without a single superhuman or starship…
“AAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!!!”
“C-Commander! Please calm down!”
I couldn’t hold back my wailing as I witnessed the spectacular destruction of the reward for my week of living as a disgusting image eraser…
And the price for the respon-sibilities I would face as a moderator going forward.
==========
After somehow managing to hold onto my sanity…
I opened the construction window to upgrade my base, which I hadn’t properly done during the event period.
However, I had already built all the expensive facilities before the event…
And I had been building the cheaper ones whenever I had time…
—————————————-
<Base Upgrade Facilities Available>
<Forward Base>(30,000)
—————————————-
Seeing that only the “Forward Base” remained in the construction window, I realized it was time to level up my base.
After all, the forward base literally meant building a “separate base” externally.
In this situation where only that remained, pressing the forward base construction…
Would immediately bring up the next base upgrade structure.
So I selected the <Forward Base> from the construction menu, placed it on a suitable resource zone…
Then asked Jessica beside me about our current resource status.
“Jessica, how many resources do we have right now?”
“Just a moment… Yes, we currently have about 200,000 minerals and 20,000 rare resources.”
Perhaps because of the ranking rewards we received…
Despite spending 30,000 minerals on the forward base, I was satisfied to see we still had plenty of resources left.
I immediately decided to check the resource requirements for the next base upgrade.
But… maybe because it was a memory from almost four years ago…
I had forgotten roughly how many resources were needed for a level 6 base since I wasn’t looking at the wiki tab.
As a result…
—————————————-
<Base Level 6 Upgrade>
<<<Required Resources: Minerals 250,000, Rare Resources 7,500>>>
—————————————-
“Holy moly.”
I couldn’t hide my shock at the suddenly skyrocketing resource requirements compared to level 5.
