Isn't Tiggles a known past exploiter/RMTer, or is that just forum slander?

There are a lot of adults who were children when they played originally and just want to play this game and get a sense of beating it.. so RMT is an easy means to accomplish that.

If you RMT you didn't "beat" anything, except perhaps yourself with an epic level of self-defeating irony. Pun intended.

Not sure if you're paying attention, but I'm doing both.

I guess all the responses were deleted? Sorry.

Stabbyjoe and other Flawless Victory officers realized that Knightt, the FV guild leader, was working with Platlord. Stabbyjoe turned over the activities of platlord going on in Flawless Victory over to the GMs. I believe he found the exact information of platlord's spreadsheet out by hacking Knightt's email account.

While Stabby does turn over information to Sirken and other GMs, he realizes that it might be possible to take some of these items for his own end. He makes a couple big trades that seem to draw attention and result in characters such as the troll illusion bard Mythoxxus getting banned after he trades some pretty high end items for that character.

TLDR: Stabby turns in information about platlord because evidence of RMT in Flawless Victory taking place becomes evident to the officers, but then Stabby steals some of these items/platinum from platlord without telling the GMs. The GMs realize this, and Stabbyjoe is banned.

Stabby got slapped pretty hard for his crime. Honestly, and I realize how this is going to sound, but if he had stolen *less* it probably wouldn't have been a big deal. Not like we'd turn a blind eye and call it a finders fee, but we probably never would have noticed given the excessive amount of information given to us.

Unfortunately, he took enough to make him easily the richest (unbanned) player in the game, and I had just happened to run a query looking at that around the same time as the RMT sting.

TLDR: Stabby deserves some credit for turning in what he did, and spent HOURS helping Sirken and I make sense of it all.

I myself have actually just recently started playing here again from scratch. Its great. Hanging out with new players that haven't started using the forums yet and have no knowledge at all about what is going on on the server is awesome. Occasionally we get that 500k twink in the group that tries to carry the forum gossip with him.. but besides that its very enjoyable.

Delete your toons and restart.

Because this was always a great game as it was designed. You only understand that when you play it as it was designed, flaws and all. Welcome to the fun (sincerely).

I still love you Ephi. Even tho you banned my 12 million platinum pieces, two prenerf fungus staffs, two bags of manastones, four AoN's, RoA, Mana Robe, Cobalt/Mrylokar/ES/Donal/Blood Ember/Singing Steel Breastplates and Greaves, Bladestoppers, 4x Puppet Strings, and my guised Cleric and Troll Bard.

You're still my homie

That is your opinion and you are entitled to it.

Fuck.

Ephi should put that in his forums signature.

So were these duped items? Or did they actually drop?

Stabby, you probably don't want to disclose your name but if you ever need a rez feel free to ask =P
