No, don't have guild text saved but it was something like remring, remiss, remro, etc...  was gone about twenty minutes afterward. Third time it's happened on Khyber.

It's a shame that you can't use the stones on other players or we'd see people randomly getting targeted by XP stones in public instances.

I'll never understand the propensity of people to brag about being good at a video game. Its a toy you play with for fun. The only person who should be proud of you is your mother. If you're 3.

This is terrible and SSG needs to be notified about it so they can ban that account. I had heard rumors but had assumed they were just that until today. It has to be stopped PDQ.

SSG already knows about the problem, they are just being tight-lipped as usual. Communication just isn't their "thing".

I rather doubt they knew cheaters were running around giving away what must be duped stones as some sick prank, but they should soon and I hope they ban the jerks for life.

No ones doing it on their main. All SSG can ban is the lvl1 barbarian fresh off korthos who's actually passing the stones out, and you can bet whoever does get that ban will just laugh and have a new character up inside of an hour.

What they should NOT do is ban the player who's praises are being sung, because obviously that's a prank, but SSG is a buncha dumbfucks, so who really knows.

As for the player actually behind the prank? Good luck. If he traded the rocks through 7 different accounts; and even to find that they'd have to come through a mountain of server logs. That's assuming the server even does log transactions, it might not even bother.

You're right.

SSG should delete Khyber to put an end to this.

I think handing out stones to the poors is absolutely GRAND!

Bishop is the kind of tight-wad asshole that plays solitaire and then bitches when someone else doesn’t play solitaire by the same rules. Ignore that tool and may the person handing out xp stones be praised!

SSG has known for weeks that people are doing that. It was mentioned repeatedly in the "OMG SOMEONE HAS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THESE OTTOS BOXES!!!!!1!!!eleven!" thread on the main boards. 

There's a patch today.  We'll see what happens there.

Also, banning the accounts that are giving away free stones isn't going to do jack shit because I guarantee that the players who are doing that made throwaway accounts to do their "performance art".

Whats going to happen is they will quietly patch the exploit, and we will return to our previously scheduled idiocy several hundred past-lives richer.


Now, if SSG were SMART, they'd do something to gracefully remove those extra boxes from the system. I don't mean "go into the code and hand delete them" I mean "create an NPC that gives you something cool for them". But its SSG, they won't do that.

Yep was a barb who gave me the 3-pack 'Blessing of Grand' and everyone else I talk to about it says it was always a 1st lev barb in Korthos gear named Re****i (fuck ya Cordo) except the race of the toon kept changing. I heard about Human, Drow, Dwarf, Halfling, Elf, and a Tief so far. Pretty fucking funny stuff. Our rogue took a screeny with him over the weekend.

Well now Drow is interesting as it would imply either someone is dumb enough to do it on their legit account or they for some reason ground a bunch of favor on a throwaway. I suppose both are possible; or more likely someone was just confused about the race Tongue

Actually... (as he pushes his glasses up his nose..) A male and then a female tiefling version of the barbarian was running around Korthos and the Borderlands city for almost an hour last night practically mugging 1st lifers.

Its like 9 posts and 1 person legitimately thinks interacting with a player in DDO can give their computer a virus.

“Blessing from grand is well known malware that might infect your computer and steal vulnerable data like bank accounts etc. You might need to unistall windows and clear the whole disc to make sure you were not infected. Preferably you should also change accomodation.”

Exactly how fucking stupid is mobo troll Gniewomir anyway?  Did somebody drop a fucking I-beam on his soft skull, or was he born a crack baby because his mom’s a cock-swallowing junky?
