i know...but that doesnt mean a thing to me in laymans terms..what does that mean exactly?

[Mattdoesrock]

Basically they found another way to dupe / glitch etc. magna, so they're disabling it until they fix it.

Oh yea thanxs again to Mg noctis that came onto Alsius realm chat today and announced that we were all cheaters and it was our fault(Alsius's) that magna trading had ceased. :cuac:

On topic : Cheaters never prosper, about time they learn that little nugget.

[WhateverUSMC]

FFS, again?

The cheaters are probably holding NGD back from doing the work they need to do...

Mg is always entertaining in my opinion, but nobody in Syrtis really takes him seriously

but aside from that, its wrong for someone to single out an entire realm for the actions of one person. We dont blame alsius for what happened (or at least i dont). It could have easily been a Syrtian or Igniun doing the dupes, just alsius's bad luck i guess. you guys are awesome, keep up the realm building. ill be looking forward to the day Alsius rules the warzone

There are magnanite duplicators in every realm, it isn't just Alsius.

im sick of these douchebags trying to utilize the magna dup for their own benefit. i have an idea, why not report the bug, so

1) NGD fixes it and progresses forward with other objectives

2) who knows, you might get a small reward (doubt it)

3) you dont piss off everyone else

4) you wont get perma banned

5) if by some stretch you dont get permabanned, you dont lose weapons and gold and magna etc.

Just a thought, but anyone who has received a ban also needs to have their IP blocked. I know a couple people who received bans who just played their second accounts while they were banned.

MAC address blocking?

[Znurre]

MAC address blocking?And... how would that work?
The client would check the active nic's MAC and send this to the server for verification?

That could be prevented in any of 3 ways:

1. Set up a proxy and modify the data sent to the server to fake your MAC.
2. Spoof your MAC, ifconfig eth0 hw ether 00:00:AA:BB:CC:EE
3. Change NIC.

There is no safe way to ban anyone completely from using a service.

man are born evil these players are born to cheat...they can't help themselves

Absolutely second the IP banning, what is a punishment if it can be worked around. Its like teling your child to go to his room where he has his X-box 360 and his computer. Thanks for teling me to play my games more, ill go back outside when you think youve "pusnished" me enough. :ignis:

I know that IP banning affects everyone in the household, that's why I mentioned it. When people do bad things there are always unintended consequences to innocent people. Maybe someone will think twice about cheating if they know that their two siblings are going to spend the next month beating the daylights out of them for getting them banned from the game.

Cheaters always find new ways to cheat...

It also can affect everyone who uses the same ISP, if they use dynamic IP - and NOT the cheater. He'll just retry until he gets a new address, and somebody else who connects through that ISP will end up with the 'tainted' IP address.

An easy way to get rid of this is just to severely reduce the mag weapons level and capability to make duping ridiculous. Those who have obtained mag weapons legally would get to keep them at the current state. New mag weapons would get a new item code that would put them at say a lvl 30 weapons with -30% capability and no socket. Making it an okay low level weapon for grind or war would make it less attractive and wouldn't cause all the hiccups we see currently.

Really why should the games features that have been teased, hinted and waited for - for so long, be routinely delayed by an auxiliary quest. I typically don't care for mass punishment of ppl who have traded mag regularly and honestly, but greed for some has been the biggest motivating factor because they can trade for better items than they have without doing anything but duping. Greed might not fit every dupe, but it is seemingly the main factor that drives the dupers to continue.
