New development in Cannith bannings. Guy seems fishy. Cannith pep report in on this Overvaan guy!

https://www.ddo.com/forums/showthread.php/441709-Why-Can-someone-explain-this-in...

Looks like they swept the servers. First Khyber, Sarlona, and now Cannith. Ghallanda or Thelanis next? Cheesy

Edit: Upon 2nd reading large scales was an example. Other ingrs and cards bought.

If true, that must really suck. Getting banned for cards bought items.

Kinda has himself to blame for it.  He's a self-admitted paladin fanboi who crys out against the cheaters.  He's one of the people who put pressure on Turbine to find and ban the cheaters.

As inept as Turbine is what else would you expect?  It's like asking a drunk with one eye and missing 3 fingers to shoot into a crowd and kill the bad guy.  Of course a few innocents are going to take a hit.

That is, if he's even telling the truth.

nah, banned for standing idle in front of the Bank.
That's where people usually go idle. I know more than half of my guild do...
( and it doesn't seem that they have hit G-Land yet )

wow. i afk in front of the bank all the time. usually because i never do maintenance so that when i finally get around to a thorough clean out it takes me hours.

also, if any staff are out there reading this a message to convey from someone who was talking to me today and asked me to say it (why they can't say it themselves idk) - they're getting pretty sick of the people who were some of the biggest exploiters not being touched. they are unimpressed with the bannings because they seem to be the small fish and not these obvious people. it therefore seems to them that everyone's just duping and no one is getting caught so that the only people who suffer are those who haven't exploited. they also say all the prices are affected (i can't check that bit as i rarely shop) and this has really put them off the game.

and if you're still reading - would love to be able to buy legitimate boxes from the store. please? my holidays are over now though so it will be a while before i use them.

If its anything like storing the old boxes... then you should probably just wait for them to bring out boxes2.0 where you get 1-20 and 21-28 all in one click.

Of course xp will be rescaled so that you need 800k to get to 15 and 3m to get 15-20.

Oh I would very much want PC people banned also if they have been exploiting. I can see no reason why they should be an exception. Particularly if was generally known that they exploited. You would hope that they would be made an example of.

Misfits or anyone else, if you honestly believe I was exploiting I would ask that you report me. That said I was chatting to someone who said that they have reported 6 people and only 1 got a ban. So I really don't know how this works.

Most of you folks have no idea what you're talking about.

Yes, Overvaan dislikes exploiting, but he doesn't report anybody for it and doesn't try to get anybody banned. In his ideal world, Turbine makes shit work as intended, and that's it.

He also never goes afk in front of the bank.

Over was banned because someone mailed him a stack of a single duped collectible when he said he was looking for them in a chat channel. That's all that happened.

Unfortunately Overvaan is completely legit...He was a hardcore grinder, 12-18 hour days. Oldschool. Elitist.

It would damage the public image (if any) of PC and it would look bad for Turdbine.

Yes, he's legit, no, they almost definitely won't lose him.

I had something he told me in my bio for a while, it went something like this:

If people can get banned for getting mailed items....


Just curious why MANY people in this area haven't mailed the obvious paladins.

Wonder if I will get banned, traded a +5 tome for an obscene (not compared to what was probably duped though) amount of ingredients from the new raids.  Under normal non-duping circumstances I would have been happy with a lot less than I got, but because of the duping the value of those ingredients are really low.

I don't know why you are posting this here. Your on the PC, if you have this issue post it on the Motherboards, or if you are concerned about a forum ban for the subject matter post it on the private PC forum area. Or barring that send it to whomever the established contact for PC related input is with Turbine, any of those would be much more likely to get attention from people with Turbine then posting this on the Vault.

Otherwise cannot see any reason why you would try to reach the staff from here, unless you are just posting it here in a effort to burnished your vault creds.

I think you right on the money here, as posted elsewhere rumor is several PC members got in xploit/grief and Jerry and Co. are struggling with what to do about it. I have been unable to get specifics, Lootseller has said he has the dirt,  but has made a pinky swear not to tell.

I know at least 2 PC members on Sarlona who got 2 week ban for duping.

Not sure about the 3rd one, no news yet.

Well really if your going to have those dirty Sarlonians on the PC what do you expect! It's like asking Germans to a pool party and being surprised when they put towels on all the best lounges right away! it's just their nature!

That really sucks :/  Anyone know the GM who did it? Is it particularly to the GM?

It all just looks so unfair. I would really like to know what is going on.

That guy is a fucking douche bag! He prides himself on being a dick.  Fuck him. I bet that fuckwad exploited hard! I love how he pulls the innocent card. Everyone is a innocent lil princess when push comes to shove. He should have checked his fucking inventory befor making a stink on the forums the past few months. Serves him right. To bad they did not ban his self righteous ass from the forums as well.

I dont care if people exploit, if they dont exploit, if they report or if they dont give a damn. I just want to exploit as much as i can and never get caught.
  

Dear players,

The D&D rules you were familiar with were too simple to understand, so we're continuing our move away from them to needlessly confusing subsystems that will make your play experience less fun and invalidate old builds and loot. We hope you have fun working out what the fuck MRR, PRR, MP, SP, RP, CL, MCL and all the other bullshit we made up whilst drunk means.

Love,

People who don't know how to fix their own mistakes cleanly
