wipe it clean from all the exploit!

This is why I quit. Sad to say but the only way to get me (or my brothers and friends) back on the server... is to eliminate the server as is, restart it with all the exploits patched up, and hope the shitty assholes don't get back to exploiting other things

server will never be wiped or restarted.

this is not VZTZ.

Theres some good input on how to get the server growing in this thread:

http://www.project1999.org/forums/sh...102750&page=28

Between pages 30-36 and theres some other good input throughout that thread

Id compile everything into an organized post but i got a disrespectful response from Sirken (your input is garbage blablabla) and i cant tell if devs are reading any of this or not, so this is as much effort as i can bother to make to help the server help itself.

As I've stated in other thread Ban by Ip/Mac instead of account and wave bye bye to exploiting assholes for good

You keep saying ban by IP/Mac like this is some strong armed tactic.. You do know most computers these days have dual network cards... And if they don't a Network card is like $10,00... Which would also reset your IP Addy... Please stop posting this useless information until you get a clue wtf your talking about.

IP address is typically static and assigned by your ISP. Banning by IP is effective up until a proxy is used. Mac addresses are attached to network interfaces and can be changed.

Both of these methods are far more effective than banning by account. This is a fact. YES people can get around it, but it is a serious inconvenience for your average joe who just wants to scam and cheat their way through EQ

Depending on your provider, you can just unplug your modem and when you plug it back in you get assigned a new IP. If someone wants to find a way, with a proxy or whatever its much easier then even finding like a cheat program or whatever people use.
