Turbine can't auto-ban, the Mabar-bans disaster was the last time they tried to. They have to do it with GMs and that’s why most dupers didn’t get a ban ever. Remember “Extreeeem Prejustice” ? They had to manually log in and delete stuff. And there are not much GMs left.  Most of the bans I heard of were due reporting, just keep a low profile and enjoy your illicit gains.

Got a ban when I acted stupid once and the GM only deleted what I had on that one toon and in the shared bank. Everything else was fine. Just put a augment bag with the shroud stuff in a TR cache and wait until there is business as usual again.

can confirm. Guildie got a soft ban, has like a million toons, GM had to log in manually on each one to delete all his mats, and items that were duped and some not duped. Took the GM over 8 hours from when the first toon logged in to when the last one logged off. They paid some sap to sit there and spend 8 hours erasing shit all day instead of, you know, actually helping people in game that need it. Can you imagine how many tickets that sad fuck had to close while sitting there combing through list of shit to delete. And the GM did rip shit out of the TR cache as well.

Turbines is consistent regarding its inconsistency. They may hit you hard, soft or not at all. But there was never a “if you do this you WILL suffer that” mechanic. Most people are lucky, some are not and I can’t imagine playing DDO and grinding/paying for every SP-pot, heart seed, commendation of heroism or high level augment.

Turbine hasn't banned anyone for the LGS because they are too busy counting all the money they made on bag and materials sales over the weekend. Especially last night, it was a mad house.

Nothing like knowing you only have a couple hours left to dupe a aug to make you say fuck it and start dropping 95tp a pop for shrapnel because you have used two months worth up.

The rational centers of the brain turn off as the clock runs down.   Wink

Out of curiosity, how many days is a soft ban?  I'm assuming 3, but never know.

It would have been good to be in Boston that day when they realized that no matter how pissed they were they were still going to have to spend a day's salary just to punish 1 of hundreds of accounts that way. Economics and emotion seldom miss well for all parties.

With duppalooza I got a 2 week ban, that was extended by another 2 weeks because they hadn't yet "cleansed" my characters in that time. 

They manually logged each of my characters on then deleted every single bag and recreated the bags on the toons.  A couple of mistakes were made with the store bought bags that they recreated, I was able to petition to have those corrected. 
They also deleted everything that went into bags that was in bank, shared bank and inventory as well.
A few other things were deleted, but not much else.

I was pretty sure this thread was a lame turbine scare tactic when I saw it at first, now I'm sure. 8 of us had a LN shroud running all weekend except for yesterday's downage, and after the servers went back up we were grinding until 3am. Now most us have more augments than we have bag space for.

The most broken epic PL in the game is the ridiculous AC buff from martial PLs. But when you include all the inherent benefits from reincarnation, the thing is above the roof. The benefit from TR was supposed to be minimal, but now it is game breaking. start a new character and you will feel, you will get raped in heroics.

Personally I think lower heroics on new characters are harder than Legendary Elite content on a character with good gear and has all destinies farmed.

And someone in another thread called ME delusional recently!

Wow.

Have you EVER gone to Law School Feyn? Have you EVER been asked by a United States Senator who is now the Vice President of the United States to write a paper just for him on a particular topic of Constitutional Law for his use as a Senator? Have you ever been asked to help a very notable Harvard PhD turned Constitutional scholar with his very-well received book on Legal Philosophy and Constitutional Revolutions? Have you ever been offered a job as a Deputy Attorney General BEFORE you even graduated Law School?

No? Then STFU you fucking amateur.

Sadly, you missed the one in question in this thread.  It was fixed with U30 on Monday.

As far as I can tell there are only bags full of LGS augments and no bans at all.

Yes, tier 1 and 2 are able to be bought.

You still needed the codex runes to create the base item - only obtainable from running raid or quests.

Sorry buddy thought you knew. I reckon it's one of the main reasons they made the 2,4,5 piece sets work just as well with tier I & II augs, driving revenue. Also why they made some serious bank this weekend, even with the duping.
