Powergamers

Post by Pronon Palmsuger »

I have continually seen Shenruu and Robert Swhfursuss (sorry I cant spell his name, hes an orc though) Powergaming, the first two times i simply told them to stop but the third time I just came here. I know that Muten Roshi has wittnessed it.

And make sure to include what they were doing. Don't just say they were powergaming.

Until someone proves otherwise, or states that both of Dunthor's computers have IP bans, I'm fairly certain Shenruu is a Dunthor character

What was the point of that message? :|

Anyway, what do you mean both of his computers? If they are in the same house, chances are, they have the same IP.

Chances are he wouldn't make it past the account application.
Chances are he wouldn't have access to multiple computers.
Chances are he wouldn't manage to get someone to assist him in being a moron. (he obviously had an accomplice.)
So far the 'chances' don't seem to apply.

I was going to say... chances are he would have the same IP address for both... *unless* he uses dialup and has two+ phonelines. Possibility.

While on the subject of IP addresses.. If the user has a dynamic Ip address, couldnt they just re connect and then log in as normal? Ive never understood that. :D

I have cable, and we are given two ip's, it doesn't really matter on the computer. If one ip is banned, i could plug my network cable into another slot and cha-ching another ip to hunt and ban. You would be surprised who has access to what nowadays.

That's kinda insane actually. Here we have all these people who get banned only to show up again and again lol.

Can't they just delete the characters from the server, if it happens over and over again?

They could, but if I were banned I'd use my second IP address to get a new name with a new email (even tho the signup's quite a wait).

This obviously would be more likely to happen in other games where you could just create a new name and password and you're in (another good reason why the signup process in this game is a good idea :P )
