I just don't get why people even care about this crap.

It's not a competitive game, what does it matter who does fucking what?

I play a lot of mechwarrior which is PVP where exploits/hacks/cheats/whatever actually impact other players in the form of losses of matches. But there is nowhere near the amount of self-righteous BS about meta gaming or exploits. Sure there is some, but nothing like this crap.

"oooooh you will get more imaginary cards in a make-believe world then me!!" fucking idiots

yeah I am just using their nomenclature, its all such a load of shit anyway.

Anything short of rewriting code is not cheating.  And if you are some unicorn that can do that, well turbine needs you.

What they refuse to see is that ass-kissing, white-knighting, exploiting, paying to win, being in a guild, using improved precise shot, are all the same fucking thing.

In all those cases you are using your resources, whatever they be and whatever you have available to impose you're will on a set of scenarios (the game).

Skill, knowledge, connections, personality, money I don't care what, is just a way to try to pursue a outcome. This self-righteous shit makes me sick because everyone who is playing in DDO is playing a meta-game. Except for a really really small percentage of people role-playing it, we all play it with out-of-game knowledge and data.  In fact the DDO game-play mechanics themselves makes it nearly impossible to "role-play" the game, so all this "cheating" bitching makes me want to shit on their hypocritical heads.

Its a group of problem solving challenges dressed in a fantasy motif, and using a exploit you figure out yourself, or track down yourself, or had given to you by some connection has just as much validity as sucking pole on the Devs for some love/knowledge.

Seriously, we have a Girl in our guild who has many Dev "friends", she has her tongue so far up their ass you wouldn't believe it, and in the give and take of these "friendships" she  gets a lot of insight, tips, knowledge. Now while its not a tactic I could stomach, it certainly is a valid one. Just as reaping the benefits of being in a powerful guild, or on the player council, or having enough disposable income to buy all the TP you want is.

People are just bitter and delusional. If they were really worried about others "cheating" and not just pissed that other people might get stuff that they themselves want, they would go back to the PNP D&D, or some other online game.      

whats the big deal? Turbine supports 3rd party multi-client software.

It's all part of his elaborate master plan.  which he tried to explain to us several times but no one could be bothered to listen to the details.

If you made 22 accounts congrats.

Today, you have 22 accounts that cannot do anything for cards.

The perfect FU from Turbine to the players.  Especailly, if some of them BOUGHT stuff to be level 4 or higher.

If only Turbine had some sort of Quality Assurance team that could check for things like this and prevent them before they go live.

I'm sure that this was planned well in advance and is WAI.

Woohoo!  We are all going to get lots of extra tickets to make up for this snafu!!

Always love it when Turbine screws up like this... just have patience and you get extra stuff.
