Heroic/Epic Otto's Boxes need immediate attention

[GramercyRiff]

Wide as the ocean, deep as a puddle.

Well said. That's a great way to describe this game.

This is how you make a point with comedic effect.

THIS! Tomorrows "balancing" and "nerfs" will be measured against these players and it will drive power creep. The power curve will be driven by those that "box" and screw the rest of us. Oh, and the slap in the face to legit guilds achievements when entire guilds are rolling over daily and suddenly doing R10 raids. Achievements in DDO are dead.

Yes, alot want higher levels, more content, deeper, content, etc. And yes, all those past lives are not needed, they are just extra fluff and help. But the issue here is playing with cheat codes enabled. You want harder content yet you advocate that cheating to get power is fine?

Boxes are and were just the tip of the duperg. Lest we forget the year of the bottled tornadoes.

Oh yeah, the year that climate change hit DDO and rampant F5 tornadoes tore through dungeons and raids. Deniers try and say the climate change lag doesn't exist but science says the lag created by those tornadoes changed code patterns in Eberron forever. Kidding aside, great example of cheat code type scenario. Not codes for xp/levels but for gear. Players seem to want more challenge with new content, but when time has shown (proven) there is a percent of players that just want max levels/max gear immediately and then whine about game is to easy. Honestly, if you are the type of person that wants instant max level and instant gear so you can "compete for glory", DDO IS NOT FOR YOU. Go play Halo, CoD, or Starcraft has a league I believe. None of those games require any real sort of grind for level or gear. You can just go show your "skillz". But to cheat DDO, dominate content, then brag about it, act holier than tho, or whine about game is to easy you need to look in mirror. It's like screwing your ugly cousin and bragging about it. Sure you got laid but absolutely no one is impressed and most throw up a bit in their mouths as you talk about it.

They had a massive ban wave from the honeypot they set up with the Sharn saga. They also had large waves from some others. Also, rerunning an easy quest is NOT an exploit. Cheesy way to get rxp before? Sure.

Yep. Ban people for not actually cheating but allow duped completionists to ruin guild accomplishments and reaper accomplishments, such as wings. You grinded your wings? You were a sucker! Think your guild is accomplishing, well CheatCodes Enabled (lvl 200 guild) is doing it better. This is a joke.

Every "accomplishment" in DDO is like one of those mail order awards plaques.

For the low, low, low price of $19.99 and this paperwork, you too can place in the DDO News & World Report official players guide.

DDO right now...

Yup, pretty much all achievements now have been cheapened. Your guild do well? So what, meaningless. Completionist? You were a fool to do that legit. Reaper wings? Sucker, you could have just had it cheat mode style. Worked to get those sentient stones, well cheat mode boxes come with sentient xp stones. They also come with top shelf xp pots so when expansion comes out they have that covered too. I mean seriously, any feeling of accomplishment in this game is complete joke now.

Your thread needed a bump?

For sure, yes. Is this a complaint thread? Probably, maybe. Is this a public service announcement thread? Yeah, sure. Or maybe, just maybe, this is advertisement to let everyone know what is available to help keep the playing field even.

Ha! SSG should just take some money and start buying up all the boxes. If people can argue it's not illegal to sell them, then it surely cannot be illegal for SSG to buy them. Cheaper then lawyers. SSG gets the duped boxes in THEIR hands and out of the economy while increasing the demand on dupers causing backlogs and delays, even price increases. And then SSG bans everyone they buy the boxes from.

Are we going to ever get a statement on the widespread duping issue? Do we all have to cancel our subs and stop buying things first?

Good question, I just noticed this lfm and reported it.

[Bacab]

Think you can banned for "buying" duped Otto Boxes?

I mean, if they didn't want them for sale and the ASAH...they should have been BTA.
