Beware of Dino Den (Long post warning)

From all that I've seen of this server, I have only heard bad things. Admin abuse, toxic community, unrealistic expecations of players, all of the such. I've also just heard that sort of talk about the Isle community in general so I didn't expect much of a difference of this server. Boy was I wrong.
Within the first week of playing this server, I found frequent admin abuse and handouts to those supporting their patreon. An instance where an admin was in an Omni group I was a part of was getting killed, and respawning in the same position as the same Omni after dying in a fight, and continuing in the battle like they never died, which is against their own rules as using TP in the middle of combat is a rule break. I was new to the server and didn't even know how to TP at this point, so I thought it was bug in the game/server and didn't think anything of it.

A bit later, when I started playing more. I found more admin abuse when a "new" admin of the server was TPing as a rex ontop of rocks that I and a couple other Omnis were on to "scare" us, leading to us getting killed by other rex's that were on the ground below us. I was able to get them demoted after recording it and reporting a ticket. After I heard they got demoted, not even by the mod team, but by a friend of mine in the server, I went into the general chat and asked them why they did what they did, and wanted to know if they were trying to be funny, or genuenly being malicious. The mod who filled my ticket said "leave it alone." like I was interegating people, or trying to start stuff. I noticed from that point onward, that mods in that server follow the "rules for thee, not for me" rule.

They are also known for abusing "pay to win" mechanics in their server by allowing people who support their patreon to bypass species caps and get given privelage when others fight them in battle. Im not surprised persay, just dissapointed. They make species caps for each species, Rex being 18 specifically, being how broken it is. But you will check the species count on each server, and it is at least triple the species cap at all times due to patreon supporters. Not necessarily bad, just dissapointing.

Another instance, a bit more recently, was when I was in a VC with 10 people playing Omni together, and someone had their name as ****inparis, but the first 4 letters were Nice, Great, And, Support, so not the entire word, but still innapproprioate. A recent addiction to the mod crew, Sour, came into the VC, mumbled extremely quietly "you need to change your name." And before anyone had the chance to process what she said (about 4 seconds) he was perma banned. 2 of the other people in our vc were confused as to what happened, and called out Sour for going about the issue in an iresponsible way, and those 2 people that were calling Sour out also got banned. I understand why the first person got banned due to his name, but banning people for exclaiming a situation is the carzy part. All 3 of them were eventually given access to the server again, the first person simply changing his name to Paris, so I guess they jsut wanted to use intimidation to get people to listen?

The icing on the cake is when I got banned. I was once again playing Omni, and a friend and I were looking to kill other omnis on the other side of a building we were on. 2 rex's (of course) were camping them and we told them to move so we could kill the omnis. They kept trying to hit them through the wall with zero success for around 10 minutes, in which I said "Rex ur tarded." I suppose all I can say is that when you look at it, I suppose I had the ban coming when I used "hate speech" to describe someone in global chat. But with the combination of people having slurs in their name and admin abusing simply being temp banned for 20 minutes, or demoted respectefully, and admins using foul language to describe people's behavior who get banned (like using the R slure), I expected a temp ban or a strike on my account, not a perma ban.
I found out about it when I tried to log into the website and couldn't, then tried the game and couldn't, but I was still in the discord, and able to join VC's. I made a ticket, confused, and was given the image of the message I sent, along with a 2 sentence reply that I had about 2.1 seconds to read before getting banned from the server.

TLDR: I love The Isle, bugs and all, and it is a very fun game to play with the right people. Yes it has its issue, all games do. But if you want to make the game as fun as you can, do not play in Dino Den. They abuse their own rules as admins and take advantage of their status to play the game they want to play how they want to play it, get defensive when they are called out on said abuse, give said admins and mods power to use any language they want without reprocution, but will ban you at the slightest convenience. Play petit pieds, not Dino Den. And if you do decide to play Dino Den, please do not support their Patreon. Do not give them any reason to think they have justification behind their behaviores.
