More like Gadaffi.

Colonel Muammar Gaddafi died after being stabbed with a bayonet in the anus and not in a firefight as originally claimed by Libyan authorities, according to a report on the Libyan dictator's last hours.

Note; you cant just ban one person. you have to punish guilds otherwise nothing will change.
If someone is crashing zones from within nihilum, they have shown they do not care if anyone cheats or hacks and will just help the player begin again from lvl 1.

You really hate Ender huh ?

Anyway, I welcome that Sirken looks into this, i havent seen any evidence, at all, that it happened like it has been claimed, I also havent played the VZTZ boxes, but from what i hear it was pretty bad there so if someone really has the power to crash zones on command they need to be banned.

Thank god we have Ruban's blessing, i'm sure this is all Sirken has been waiting for to start his investigation.

holocaust was deleted and officers banned for using nillys more lucky than exploit strat, i wonder what will happen to the people caught hacking and zone crashing.

When you engage mobs that AE like dragons, and have pathing issues there was always a chance for people to LD. The zone really wouldn't crash but a large group of people might LD.

From the information I have gathered from my own guild mates on the events. I have no reason to believe that the zone even crashed during this event but many players went LD more then likely as to what was described as above.

How could you be playing MMO's as far back as EQ classic and not know the difference between frame rate lag, and latency lag.

The only way a group of people could all go LD at once is:

A: They all have the same isp provider on the same node and it crashed

B: They all have inferior graphic's cards for a game over 15 year's old that a modern day tablet could run.

Either way the chances for either are astronomically low, if not down right impossible.


As to the issue of Ban's, everyone is asking the wrong question.

Why ban by account when ban's can be issued by IP or Mac address just like IP exemptions are made for different player's living in the same home. That would be a perma fix and hard goodbye for any hacker's.

And no ghosting will not work AT ALL!

Ghosting is used to steal info or hack a system for a limited duration of time it's meant to delay a trace. It cannot work on a server client connection that requires packets to and from the source to destination. The zones load from your hard drive the mobs from the server. Half of Eq is client, half server, it needs a direct path to run.

Your skill in Common Sense has increased 101!

I dont hate anyone. this is a video game played by total strangers to me.
It is my opinon that cheats should be banned and GM decisions respected.
why is that difficult to understand, Ruban?

READ what I wrote above Jenna don't let them draw you in with the BS cuz there just using misdirection.

[Labanen]

No, banning whole guilds is hard to understand. It was tested once... go read through the posts from that time and see if that was widely regarded as a good decision, then go find out if the decision still stands.

Obviously if someone does this they should be banned, but i havent why should i be banned ?

[SamwiseRed]

guilty by association or perhaps an accomplice.
