Luckily, I couldn't tolerate the event. I have around 2000 motes and 1 scale. I solo'd other stuff while you folks did the Gaybar event.

I would have loved to do that, but the connection i was on at the time was borked, so i figured sitting in deleras in a guild group dc'ing every 10 minutes wouldnt hurt anyone. Looks like I was wrong.

I'm feeling let out and uncool that I didn't get an email. And from what I've seen - it's more a matter of luck that I didn't (yet), because this whole email warn/ban seems arbitrary as hell.


I used droughts, used Delara pt 3 to refill my HP/SPs, ran in groups, ran solo - etc. Yet, no warning or ban.


The only thing I can think of is that I ran the event for maybe four hours total. Halloween is a busy weekend around my house - and just didn't have the time. So, I had less chance to trip over whatever they are calling an exploit I suppose.

But, leave it to Turbine to fuck up an event that had been seen as a fair success up till now. I know for damn sure I won't be going back into the graveyard if they bring it back.

It seems to me that this should be pretty easy to verify. They look at how many items I have on my acct, figure out how many scales that takes, see how many times I did the dragon.

They would easily see I should have more scales then I have since I was in three failed runs.

Honestly, a 30 day ban for not getting anything is a little silly.

Yeah I dc'd like a mofo. Never was it on purpose.


Even if you intentionally DC'd but not for gain nor did you gain, would that still be an exploit?

Like when the wife says "hey, need your help" and you close the client ... only to find out it was quick and so you try to log back in fast. 


And yeah, I was in a number of failed runs.  If you're going to ban me, gimme my scales I didn't actually get ...

Right, so if it was DC alt+f4ing we should expect bans to correlate roughly as:
1 DC - warning
2 DCs - 3 days
3 DCs - 7 Days
4+ DCs - 30 days.

At a guess.

Anyone else with a 30 day ban able to confirm?

If this is the case Turbine are a bunch of retards for not investigating properly.

Theories:

I don't think it is D/Cing because I didn't and I never got an extra scale (if that is even possible)

I don't think it was refilling mana from Delera's quests because my GF did that too and got no ban or warning

I don't think it was using hirelings or pets because my GF did that even more than I did (actually I'm not sure I did this one at all)

I don't think it had to do with switches as I only manned a switch once, cluelessly, and my GF was there helping me (and again she got nothing)

I don't think it is Mass Invis on the altar as apparently there are banned people who did not play casters. I cannot confirm this though

Any word yet? Or just more theories?

I was running a ToD and was in pt 2 when you fucksticks spawned a dragon and lagged wiped my party during the Gaybar event. They should ban you for 6 months. At least I felt that way at the time.

The other issue for me is i dc'd constantly. Any reasonable person could look and see that i wasnt just dc'ing during the dragon fight.

I can think of anything else it could be honestly.

Still waiting for some type of comment from them before I call up to cancel my sub, but my patience is running short.

Its also frustrating to watch people call me a dirty cheater ( I must be one of the dirtiest since my ban is so long) after spending a bunch of time calling out fellows on my server for actually exploiting, and being labeled as a purist fanatic lol.

I NEVER DC'd in the dragon and got a 3 day vacation.  Sounds like it is Guilty by Association.  If ONE person out of the 24 in the Raid DC'd, you were exploiting and then banned.

This 'investigation' they did was haphazard at best and borderline slander at worse.

I just got that impression after you spent 13 pages calling out eladiun for being an interwebs bully when anyone who's been posting on here already knew that.  I mean, he's proud of it and hardly tries to hide that at all.

Ok, so a number of people have said things like "banned no DCs" and "DC'd no ban". That seems to debunk the disconnection theory.

I'm now starting to lean towards "you where there at the time something naughty happened".

Seems that way however for those that were basically there the entire time the event took place....you were hit regardless of whether you did said naughty thing or not.

I have no clue either. Being the recipient of one of the heavest bans I have heard of  would imply to me that I partook in the nasty event multiple times. I cant tell ya what it was.

I wish people would keep posting threads on the official forums so that T&T can sit there pulling their hair out trying to delete them all...

I received warnings on my main account and a 3 day ban on an account that i logged into ONCE during the event and was in the graveyard for a total of maybe ten minutes, went to the dragon, fought mobs by altar, failed instance due to several rooms only having one person from what I could gather, no scale and logged off. Where's the explanation for that?


Why does such a fun game with the best community have to be cursed with being run by complete fuck wits?

This assumes that there was actually an exploit worth mentioning. There is an exploit pipeline that exists between a lot of players and I didn't hear SHIT even after the event.

There are few people that use these forums that would be "in the know" if there was an actual exploit. I am curious if there was one that was used. If you could send me a pm verifying this, I would appreciate it.

vtec - I would assume that AoK would be familiar with an exploit, if it was available. Unless Legion wouldn't tell you. Cause you know Legion pwns AoK.

Only in terms of player skill, guild raid completions, server firsts, intelligence, looks, wealth and personal hygiene of guild leader.

If we're measuring: love of bacon, love of porn, ability to grief noob pug shrouds, homosexual banter, getting to the most deaths per instance record, starting drama and being banned from most guilds on server... well we have Legion thumped  Grin




And as far as Legion telling me about exploits I have no idea what you mean... I would NEVER... Tongue
