Interesting.

Change the coding so that bards are rooted if they have more than two targets attacking them.

In all seriousness, thanks Rogean.

I appreciate the effort to try and thwart cheaters and the willingness to change tactics when it causes broad concern like this.

I'm all for the crew at Project 1999 implementing some kind of "Punkbuster" like software. Yes, it would be an ongoing battle between the cheaters and the developers in countering each other's efforts but it will hopefully stop the majority of the cheaters. This in addition to sticking solidly with the policy that people caught cheating get banned forever would go a long way towards addressing the issues which these cheats pose.
There were a lot of cheers and sighs of relief when this type of thing caught cheaters. It was also very concerning to many when Uthgaard announced his resignation and the implications which are obvious from he limited explanation of why. Also, many accounts of "well known" individuals suspected of cheating were suddenly unlocked as these individuals suddenly showed up on the server after a noticeable absence once the suspensions kicked in.

I think that the majority of those who play here would be fine with some forms of anti-cheating programs and those who aren't could always play on other servers.

I don't know shit about computers, but appreciate the transparency when concerns of privacy arise.

Secrets wrote that file, I wrote EQGame. My code format is very different than hers (and probably pretty different from what is accepted as a standard). I like to make code look clean without opening bracket taking up their own lines everywhere, among other preferences.

Why do I get this message when I try to extract the file? I can no longer get to the character select screen. It shows the bar loading with the EQ background then the next I know I'm signed out of my EQ account. Any ideas?
