PSA: Buying from Platlord

[Stabbyjoe]

The reason they can't give you a full blown list of everything they're doing to track RMT and all of their tricks, softwares, methods is because it would warn the RMTers and give them a chance to try and change their approach.

Not just this, but also if there is (Read: there is) duping going on, there are only two ways it can be done: With GM intervention or without, and if there is a GM involved then this whole process is going to take a LOT longer.

I said it on the interview: Every time a rollback occurred, the server gave stabbyjoe the Fungi staves back. Its not hard to figure out how this scam works.

Platlord sells fungi staff, fungi staff goes to player a. DDoS occurs/ rollback occurs. Platlord gets his itme back, player A loses his item, petitions a GM, GM restores the item. There are now 2 staves, not one.

Of course, this doesn't happen AS much with the staves because they are so rare, but it happens all the time with less-rare items, such as fungi tunic, AoN, RBG, etc etc etc

I don't care how they're doing it, I just want a stickied list of names along with their crimes! Keep fighting the good fight, Ephi and staff.

Not sure where you've heard this from, but this statement didn't come out of my mouth.

Also when the server gets attacked by DDOS it doesn't force a server rollback. Rogean flips that switch.

Systolic once again confirmed full of it.

Stabbyjoe:
I stole two fungus staffs off of Platlords mules. A few days later the server "crashed". After the crash the same two mules were restocked with fungus staffs. Somehow that server crash duped the items.
Stabbyjoe:
Wasn't only the staffs. Was also some donals bps, manastones, puppet strings, AoNs

Do we really need confirmation the sky is blue anytime we walk outside?

Did you expect a signed affidavit? With timestamped, video recordings attached? Perhaps monitored personally by your grandma? With three spectators? And a stenographer taking notes?

This is the internet. Standards of evidence being less sterling than they would be IRL is a given.. Most non-autistic people realize this from the get-go.

This is the internet. Standards of evidence being less than they are IRL comes with the territory and is a fact most non-autistic people realize.

Standards of proof are universal whether or not someone can meet them or not. Are you saying because something is on the internet it is inherently more true since it is harder to prove?
