Nope. It's not a virus.

Punkbuster isn't a virus. GameGuard isn't a virus. By your terms, MQ2 is a virus and should be illegal for intruding into EverQuest.

u mad?

This actually isn't a bad argument. Unless somewhere in the fine print they specify that they will check your hard drive for prohibited software, I don't know that it's technically legal to do it.

However, because there's no real damage (broken computer, loss of actual money, making public the personal contents of a hard drive, phishing passworded accounts, etc.), I don't know that any law enforcement agency would take the time to prosecute such a case when they have actual crimes with discernable real-world victims. If you find that your personal information has been compromised and you're concerned that P99's actions have resulted in actual damages to you that you can demonstrate (outside the world of Norrath), then perhaps you should pursue your case in a legal avenue. Otherwise, it may be time to accept that you used programs that you agreed not to use, and the administrators of this server discovered your violation of the terms.

Again, I don't know who all was caught, and I don't know if any of them actually used the programs in question. I'm just analyzing the situation at face value.

Even after 12 years, EQ drama is still best drama! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Thanks for the Saturday night entertainment, server staff! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Holy shit, something connected to your computer! I didn't know you had to connect to another computer to establish a connection to log in to EverQuest!

It isn't a conspiracy, you cheated, you got banned. You mad?
