Let's show UO we're Serious about UO cheating issues

Damn, In Flames, I usually give up reading posts that are that long, but you freaking blow that post away. None of those things are the results of 'cheating' its UO and UOAssist Macros/ hot-keys/attributes.

However, some of those above mentioned actions could be done in a more efficient manner with other *&()'s.

Now the primary issue, that I believe to be whats insane, is the speedhacking. I dont know how its done, with what or why, but there is absolutely no way a player can: (from other posting)

""It makes no sense for someone who is on foot, to be able to out run you when your on a mount. When there is no latency issues, ping under 40, using this:

http://www.alienware.com/product_detail_pages/Aurora_ALX/aurora_specs.aspx?SysCode=PC-AURORA-ALX-R7&SubCode=SKU-DEFAULT#pdp-nav""

-If I am on a mount and he is on a mount and he outruns me, "OMG He is speedhacking" does NOT EVER cross my mind.

-If I am on foot and he is on foot and I cant keep up, "OMG He is speedhacking" does NOT EVER cross my mind.

Now if he is on foot (not polymorphed into wolf etc.) and I am on a mount, they SHOULD NOT be able to out run me.

-If they were running on foot, ALMOST as fast as I do on a mount, you know just slightly slower than me, then thats just they have an idiotically insane computer, with a wicked arse internet connection when compared to myself.

-If they were running on foot, exactly as fast as I am running on a mount. Makes my mind wonder as to how are they that fast, so I go plumming on the internet scouring for the latest, and greatest gaming computer, to see if any huge leaps in technology for 'cpu gaming' in the past 2 months have been made, and there isnt much to say. I could still say, 'he prolly has fewer jump points in his ISP along with a wickedly low ping.

-But to be outrunning me on foot while I am on a mount, OUTRUNNING me, and my freinds/comrades/any other gank happy yewbie is preposterous.

**Also how they are able to reverse the 'bounce effect' change while casting on their client side so they can continue to use it, is really really lame too.

There is no real point in blames EA, they could care less if you point a finger at them. But, there is a way to 'pay them back' for all the wonderful changes and the outstanding customer support they provide (NOTE: the sarcasm in the statement is so thick you will need a chain saw to cut it.) All you have to do is spread the word, let your friends know how EA conducts their business and dont forget to mention how awesome their customer service is. If your a veteran player like myself, don't forget to point out that even though you have been a loyal customer for over 10 years, they blow you off or simply ignore you as if you just started playing.

Don't forget to post on other game forums, get the word out so fellow gamers don't get exposed to this type of treatment. Now, I am NOT saying go bash EA with a bunch of idiotic ranting and raves, with exagerated predicaments, saying and doing anything to damage their rep. Just because they dont care or have any respect toward their long-time customers, isnt enough of a reason to start hitting them below the belt. Besides there is no need to skew any issues, or make them up because there are over a hundred issues/problems/sickening stuff to talk about.

In case your wondering if I still play, the answer is 'NO' I am currently not playing, I have deactivated my accounts because I simply refuse to pay them anything until they stop fooling around and actually fix these idiotic bugs/exploits, some of them over a year old, for example that ******** reflect physical crap, where a player can make you attack them so they can guardwhack you, flag you as the aggressor when they were the ones to attack first, and give you counts. I know this isnt exactly top priority, but it is over 2 years old. However it does freaking trump 90% of the bugs/exploits/issues that are fixed and published, like adding a freaking Chocolatering Branch to the cooking skill. It trumps 90% of the fixes because when this is exploited it greifs the hell out of other players. I am not going to even mention the exploits that truly pissed me off to take this break, mostly because I have noticed a pattern with these bugs/exploits, that is leading me to believe they are being engineered into the game, most likely from a bad apple in their orchard of employes. Because, like clockwork, every publish brings forth a new bug/exploit, one that is extremely complex to do, meaning there is no way someone would accidentally stumble/discover it.
