Yet again cheats are granted a chance to simply reroll and have their friends PL them back to where they left off within a couple weeks. the community unaware

Any tweets of cheat deets?

Can we get a list of shame please, shit would be classic

[Andis]

mornin how u gonna copy my sig

[Jenni D]

Well, the red pop is low enough to notice if anyone has suddenly stopped logging in.
Could even make a thread for each big guild here with list of every player's main's name and edit it with "seen" or "not seen" over say the next week.

[Andis]

rid this server of the trash

cheating on a 12+ year old game

prais to nilbog

ALSO**

If you ban people, a list should be given, so the community knows

pls post, thanks

[Nirgon]

Yeah way to place the responsibility on guilds not to invite known cheaters etc then not tell everyone, right?

How th'fuck are people supposed to know? Then they get branded for inviting cheaters to their guild.

[Jenni D]

Guilds will never respect GM decisions until these cheats are outed and shamed

Does anyone else think that banning accounts is not a very good "justice" or deterrent?

Wasn't Ender's account banned for such, and then his guild powerleveled & geared a new rogue for him?

This is why we need the deets.

the time invested to relevel and regear and account is probably a decent punishment imo. that's like an extra 15 ingame days of your life.

4 total.

[Shrubwise]

What's the difference between banning an account, or wiping + stripping?
Banning is better. Sometimes it's a double-whammy and the offender has toons on both servers. A real two-fer-one, y'know?

[Sirken]

they were banning people before this btw, I know of 2 people who had gotten banned in the past month for MQ/SEQ
wonder how they do these sweeps, either way pras be nilbog
when u see one or two banned, its because staff was doing something that led to that account and a flag was noticed. today Ephi ran a query to pull all flagged accounts and ban, same way that they did the 365 back in Aug2011.

list not complete. some of these are false positives, but we have 100% accurate means of seeing if it was used on p99 or not, and will clear that up.

also. some kids may have avoided the ban this time. i know we have acquired a new version of MQ that was made just for R99, and supposedly works without detection. so Ephi and staff will dig into that compile, and after its thoroughly torn apart, we'll add a way to detect it if in fact its currently not detected. should not take to long. but anyone using anything from that RG site will be going down very soon as well :)

Can I get a pardon for having a clean no MQ whistle?

[Sirken]

cool shit man, good to hear

its doubtful. P99 is the 4th or 5th EQEmu server staff(depending if u consider Searyx's vztz, and Null's vztz different server staffs) i have been apart of. and not a single one of those staffs have made the ban lists pubilc. (although, after we closed vztz for the final time, we did make the staff section open to the public so players could indeed finally see all the ban threads, along with all the QQ from players in those threads)

[Reddi]

Pretty sure they listed the names from 2011 MQ sweep

[Andis]

But Sirken,

What harm does it give us to know who is cheating in our community?

If anything it will help us catch them again if they do it.

[Reddi]

Sirken.

[heartbrand]

shud post names on red

[quido]

Really though you should consider compiling a list of names and sharing it once all the false positives and such are sorted out. Is it really fair to people who want to avoid playing/guilding/whatevering with cheaters to not have any clue because of some dated policy that doesn't allow such a breach of "privacy" or whatever it is? I understand that part of it is "we don't answer to you" and you want to discourage a bunch of frivolous requests for information, but damn, help us help you. I guarantee you that if you assist the community in outing these cheaters - help us to better shun them - you will have much less work in that regard in the end and you will have a community with greater integrity overall.

[Ephi]

Pretty sure they listed the names from 2011 MQ sweep

Oh, so lets do it because we did it last time.

Name and shame does nothing but gives the trolls more to do when they should be:

1) Outside
2) In school
3) At work
4) Not here

[heartbrand]

I've seen basically every1 on so far post ban anyway so chances are if any1 got banned on red it's a bunch of non-factors no1 ever heard of

Why do u hate me so much every interaction with you is a condescending negative one.

[quido]

1) There was just a tornado here
2) No class today!
3) No work today!
4) You love us

Having done it before is not a good reason for doing it again. However, enabling the community to identify and appropriately ostracize violators is not just feeding the trolls (though it is that too) - it is an additional (though clearly not necessary) means of further promoting server integrity. Why enable these people in creating new identities and shirking due justice partially? The community suffers because of these violators in more ways than them having simply broken the rules.

are you guys in possesion of MQ MQ that was made for r99, or the totally different hook made from scratch? as far as i can tell your mq detection only detects MQ processes. There is a totally different program being run now.

i wont discuss that in public. if u or anyone else has any info that u feel could be useful or compiles you wish to talk about, or wish to send me, then feel free to drop a PM, and you will have my full attention.

anything to rid this server of hax, sploits, and the people that use them, is in everybody's best interest.

I'm confused, Nizzar and Co. promised I'd be banned after this, but for some reason I can still log in. They promised they had fraps evidence, clearly something dirty going on here.

[Ephi]

I'm not really getting involved with all this, but Jeremy made some very pertinent points, which were not acknowledged by any staff member in this thread. Releasing the names would serve as a deterrent to hax, sploits, and anyone who would think to use them as far as I can tell.

I don't see any argument to how releasing the names would increase hax.

We aren't releasing the names because... we're not. Sorry guys. Pick a different fight.

[Vile]

agreed.. i think it sucks names aren't public info.

the thing that sucks for GMs, if they did out the names, there are some false flags, and knowing this cesspool community... if a ban that was unjust was overturned, you guys would cry GM favoritism all day. so it pretty much puts the GMs in a shitty situation.

i am sure you guys can do your own detective work and see who doesn't log in the next few days... post your own speculated lists and cross off names when those people are seen in game imo.

from what i can tell, the mq detection logs any MQ use, so if you use MQ on another server, it flags you, since the MQ detection software is on your own PC. it detects any and all mq processes, im not sure exactly what it logs and sends back to the server, i imagine a date and time. Since you could simply claim you where on a different emu.

hopefully thats the case, or else if i got banned for MQ id just say i was on another server at the time.

Example 1;

banned player makes sob story about their ban on guild private forums. guild believe it or simply dont care about gm decision. guild PL and regear banned player. community never knows. banned player is not ridiculed off svr.

Example 2;

banned player rerolls a new toon. Tells their guild oh hai guys, ive retired xxxx this is my new char, gonna play casual now due to work/school. reguilds when hits 50+.

example 3;

Banned player secretly levels up new toon. Then tells old pals they quit svr on a whim many months before and sold account for blue plat. but they are back now, any pl plz?

[Jenni D]

I had 4 more examples but then i remembered cheats always get a 2nd chance here lals

[Jenni D]

Triple post for the umad factor.

Why are gm's bothered about trolls trolling cheaters?
also thats what rnf is for. just forum ban trolls outside rnf.

am i missing something?

[Faerie Blossom]

I hope these account bannings come with free IP bans too. Regardless, this is great news! Any steps taken to eliminate cheating are steps worth taking. Kind of a shame that devs have to spend time reverse engineering new cheating methods instead of coding in the big pvp changes they're working on, but I guess that's just how things are.

Yes blue got hit with more bans than red. but thats because blues population is roughly 400% higher than Red.

to clarify, people on both servers were banned. we are currently working through peoples (mostly sad) attempts to appeal. we also have just acquired new versions of MQ, SEQ, and HPMaps. so, id expect another wave in the near future.

REMINDER - If you share your account with guildies and friends, and they log in your account with MQ, it will flag YOUR account, and YOU will be banned.
