Because /q isnt classic I suppose or something like that. Might need to do some more work on dsetup.dll to distinguish between someone that /q and someone that /camped out. Should be easy since the no response to packets sent thing should be the same from someone that /camp 'ed out and someone that /q.

Not really that big of a deal, and not really worth the effort to code. It's pretty clear who's boxing and who was just switching characters too fast.

If, as a player, you're concerned about it, simply wait a minute or two after /q'ing. It's never been an issue for us from a CSR standpoint, though.

From the guide application:

"2 Players are being reported as being suspected of 2 boxing. How would you handle this situation?"

I would run the script:
SELECT * FROM `pc_login` where accid in (*ACCID'S REDACTED*) order by ts desc limit 0,5000

and have them run in opposite circles.

Boom - 1 question closer to finishing this guide application. Thanks guys.

Unfortunately, besides Rogean and Nilbog, I'm the only one with access to that table [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Guides work purely off the front-end interface (pre-constructed queries in a VGUI) and have no "back end" access (no pre-built queries, have to enter custom every time).

There are no "right answers" on the Guide application. It's there solely to help us ascertain what kind of person you are and how you think. We get even more in-depth if we pull you for an interview, but in order to get to that point we have to like what we see on your application!

Trouble with this rule is it really only affects the ignorant. Duplicate ip addresses are easily avoided. I bet there's a ton of people 2 boxing with impunity.

Perhaps more than were 2 boxing back on classic live, since it was never disallowed in classic.

Ah, but can they pass The Test™?

That raises other questions.
Do you ban someone because someone with a different ip address is afk.
Opening a can of worms with that one.

No they don't. Take off the tin foil hat.
