ASAH missing

[Ghwyn]

The reason they have such large stacks is because of the one more recent dupes allowed you to use a pot and not consume it. SSG has been quick to kill exploits, which I applaud.

I know many people that dupe. Most don't play anymore, some because they were banned. Duping is bad for the game in many ways.

[Sunnsett]

To be fair, experience potions are easily obtained by players who have been playing for a long time. Also, slayer pots and loot stones are cheap in the store and a common drop from daily dice - I know some players spend their shards rolling dice and spend their store points on these items.

Not saying these people didn't dupe those pots, but I will point out that you have to consider the possibilities before taking action on someone.

Was about to say, you took screen shot of player's buffs, most from guild amenity.
As for the XP boost, yes if you buy/use same amount of boost per potion, then time will stack, makes sense to me. Some people might have nothing better to do than buy tons of pots and douse them all at once. Don't make accusation when you don't know how they got it and your making a wild guess.

[Tat2Freak]

Nice job completely missing the point while apologizing for SSG's terrible treatment of their customers.

To spell it out, no, they're not evil because they fix exploits. They're lame because they do not fix the bugs that are detrimental to players with the same speed as they do exploits that benefit players.

How long has this company had the reins?

No. Bound items became prevalent so you kept cashing out for the new & fresh pack every time.

This...its a business, a business that gives you enjoyment, but a business...beats standing in line at the __________.

LMAO@ this thread

Bunch of crabs in a bucket pulling everyone down to your level. Don't hate the player, hate the game.

2000 hours of each pot first it's not a ship buff and second it's not a guess,it's an exploit,an exploit as the previous post of you describe,to re use a pot with out consume
23.000 points costs 200 dollars 1.000.000 points is close to 8500 dollars make this for x5 at least for all of the toon we have a purchase of 42500 dollars hureyyyyyy )) and we are talking for discount period hehe
Your answer can not convince even a children, anyway purchase history is easy accessible,and we are on server on ddo every one knows what happen, there is a not huge server it's ddo,all we know each other,I didn't know them personally but was not difficult to learn for those players
Phil was trobas,maybe you are someone of the rest?
I would glad if someone with better English than mine informed a moderator here , maybe they cared to look the order history,cause I know my English is not nice but is not acceptable to not answer on in game report lol,if more report probably we will have a clean ddo on the future and the ddo team will have only to work how to improve the game and not how to close ah monster manual and so one,it's totally insane for me to look those 2000 hours and to know that the ddo team they didn't even delete the effects and at the same time the ah goes down because an exploit

[SeveredSteel]

Hate the game?

Let's see.... Go to a public swimming pool, wherein a kid who is old enough to know better defecates into the pool, forcing it to be evacuated & closed. So as a displaced user of said pool, I should hate the hotel or park that owns it? LOL at that 'logic'. I don't dislike players, I dislike people that ruin things for others just to feed their own self-indulgent whims.

Wow, you sound like a hater. Also, it's a stupid analogy. Come back with a better one and try again. thx fam

I vote for permanent bans for every single person caught doing garbage like this. Every. Single. One. Any person arguing otherwise is one of the cheaters. Period.

Would your little angry mob be interested in some pitchforks and torches? They're cheaper if you buy them in bulk.

Yes Please!

[whoolsey]

Arrows of fire, shaming players might get you banned.


Duping didn't kill the trade turbine did when it got greedy.
When it noticed people payed a few hundred bucks of real life money to buy something like an sos shard they wanted a piece of the action. Hence the ridicueless dificulty spike and epic elite items for sale on the shard AH. I know a lot of people that spend way to much money on gear that lost it's value within a year.
The same scam with rerolling for mythic gear.

They banned people that never exploited but bought or traded for things in good faith. I have 0 confidence in Ssg to get that right. taking down asah and disabling mm rewards was a good step.

[Miow]

In all fairness, I once got an unearned past life via TR, and reported it. AFAIK, nothing happened. (And yes, the toon in question still has that PL.)

You must of got mine, i did an epic tr and got nothing. Logged it and forgot about it. Nothing was ever done. I no longer care

[LT218]

With all due respect you have no idea what you're talking about. If you knew what had happened (and I do) you would not be running with this line. The shard exchange had to be shut down. In fact I would be surprised if it comes back, at least in its current form.

Thanks for telling me what I don't know about my own experiences. There's the door ---> [], kindly show yourself out of my experiences.

Ironically, I seem to recall you getting all sorts of bent out of shape a while back when people told you didn't know squat about rangers. Golden rule and all that.

Don't be overly dramatic. Anyone with half a brain knows what happened with the monster manuals and shard exchange at this point.

Sure, the shard exchange is shut down but not having access to the shard exchange doesn't stop me from playing the game normally. It's a minor inconvenience at worst.

People TRing and losing their tomes, all their gear, PLs, etc. is far more than a minor inconvenience. Not being able to get a useful response from customer service for weeks at a time on major issues with your toons is a lot more than a minor inconvenience.

[LT218]

How long has this company had the reins?

Long enough to take the already low bar that Turbine set for customer service expectations and bury it in the ground with a backhoe?

Long enough to ignore long-time players losing their stuff due to TR bugs for a month or more?

Long enough to have released multiple updates and made good progress on a whole new expansion pack instead of fixing the TR systems, the in-game store browser, and who knows how many other bugs that negatively impact players in-game experience on a daily basis?

[SerPounce]

Permabanning all cheaters might be a bit harsh, but they should do something beyond just undoing the cheating. If you rob a bank you don't get to just give the money back and call it a day. Temp bans are probably bad from a business standpoint because people are likely move to a new game.

Maybe randomly remove half the PLs and gear from all the toons on the account Also no birthday cake next anniversary. Stack of coal instead.

#NoCakeForCheaters

[Lanadazia]

Yeah, and all that stuff is BtA as a security measure against cheaters.

i was recommending a "wallet system" like in guild-wars2. each toon gathers stuff into a wallet, that is accessible from any toon. just like astral shards work now.
but this system involved not only ingame currency or store currency, but also special crafting materials.
lets say you could get 1 type of essence (like in cannith crafting now) for any crafting system like gs/thunderfroged.
this stuff would be allocateable on any toon without filling up inventory slots or any type of bags and would be cheater proof

EDIT: what i'm trying to say is: they managed to implement this for AS, why not for other stuff in the game?

At one time they did extreme deleting. That seemed like a good approach but some did quit over that so it ended up a self perma ban.

[Arty_Farty]

Public Service Warning: For those considering buying pitchforks or torches in bulk please retain proof of purchase.

Having large stacks of pitchforks or torches in your inventory may lead to accusations of exploiting.

[jimcricket]

Ban please

Well, I commend you on your memory since that Ranger thread was about 15 months ago. As for people losing stuff on TR, I'm not saying it doesn't exist, I'm sure it happens for some reason. It has never happened to me or anyone in my guilds over the years so it must be extremely rare. The whole idea that this happens a lot is way overblown. So from my perspective, losing TR items is a nonexistent problem. The duplication of items/shards/currency however effects me greatly and tangibly over my time in the game. Entire game systems have been abandoned or redone because of duplication. Raiding in a large part (duped raid timers) was destroyed by duplication.
