That's all they've ever done to my knowledge.  I've seen banned people stay in guild for years and I know they were banned.

Yeah, that actually works.  If I ever do it,  it's probably going to be after reverse 3.3.5 wow client.  That way I can then modify that to use all original maps models story ui etc and then run a modified trinity core.

Who knows if I'll ever do it more than just the vulkan renderer that I can plug models into,  but I'm having fun with building on that at the moment so as long as that continues...

Awe shit, you actually succeeded in getting custom models into WoW?! That is so cool!!! I went down that rabbit hole about 10 years ago and eventually gave up. Now I really wish I had better preserved my wow server/client files. About 6 months ago I went back thinking it might be fun to revive the thing and discovered much to my chagrin that I had somehow only saved the server-side, and the client was lost in one of the many great raid failures...

Man, I am just SHIT with data, aren't I?

Its not a question of "keeping them safe in the clubhouse"; its just where the conversation is happening. If its happening in the clubhouse you won't see it on it on the general boards because that's simply not where people are talking about it.

That'll be a whole lotta programming. Also I don't really know what "vulkan" is in this context but addmitedly I really have not played around with this shit in ages. I've gotten back into 3d modelling though, so that's fun. Maybe I need to bust out Unity and get something vaguely set up so I can start dropping models in...

Oh that's cool! I may take a look at that.

I'm honestly mostly looking for something where I can have an already pre-fabricated engine and just drop assets into it. Haven't really got time to teach myself programming, but there is a special kind of feeling you get when you see a model sitting in the engine finally and you can walk around it shooting at it.

I'm looking at it now, am quite impressed.

I can certainly see the advantage there as python is basically the easiest language ever(or something to that effect). Its definitely better if you're more programmer than artist. My problem is I'm more artist than programmer. For the me advantage of Unity is being able to buy a game thats 95% done and just focus on the aspects I enjoy(asset creation and world design).

Of course the flipside to THAT is I probably should learn python for my work/career and something like Godot is going to make me more likely to learn it than trying to to take a course on my own time

The simple answer is: if you didn't get banned during the ban wave, you're probably fine. We don't know what ridiculous bullshit they used but seems to be a combination of poorly written script and in-game reports. I wouldn't bother trying to ship them over to mules, if anything that's more likely to get you caught if they are now watching for trades.

Basically: keep your head down, don't be retarded, and the danger zone is probably over.

Relax, there is no ban wave, there is no "Shadow Banning". There are occasional bans, that is all.

The talk of shadow banning and rolling ban waves are the equivalent of people telling ghost stories at a summer campfire, and the Vault's Fonzie ongoing efforts to pump air into thread he is championing.

Fucking relax, go play the game, SSG doesn't give a fuck.

For fuck's sake, let it fucking go man. People have shit from ten years ago, that has been mentioned fucking dozens of times in the last couple of months alone! Stop asking such stupid fucking questions instead of reading, use the search function and stop asking everyone to hold your fucking hand.

If you cheated, you run the risk of being banned plan and simple, stop fucking filling up pages with this pointless whiny fluff about it, we already have noamineo for that.

it's not as if some of the old dupe ways were hard... some could be performed unknowingly by anybody at any time.

Now I know  enough to guess at 4 or 5 different ways to dupe.... Byt why bother ?

French sockpuppets, how refreshing.

SSG banned many people on Oct.1 - they did not tell them - let them reset password, still no luck-put in a ticket and get a response about password, blah blah-never mentioning ban.
Weeks later people finally got an email stating that they were banned.  If this is not shadow banning, then please explain what is.

The delay is likely to make it more difficult to back charge vip and point/expansion pack purchases.

The company is shiete, the game is so underwhelming, and the lag-oof!
