Time To Bring Back OLD IDOC System Or New Way To Catch Scripters

Keith we've went over this 80% of the players in this game script, you do that you lose the entire game. furthermore if you just banned accts scripting at idocs, all it would be is dummy acct after dummy acct. paying 10 bucks a month. theyd have to ban IP's and they don't have the capability of banning them.
Dummy Acct I have no problem with as long as scripting is banned. I understand a daily patch will kill all script programs. Or just close CC and migrate everyone onto EC *hides*

Chance of all scripting being banned = zero, technical difficulties aside the game would not survive the mass exodus. Apparently not too many people want to click on a hammer or sewing kit 1324412211234123134 times manually to GM a trade skill anymore. Half the playerbase today are old foggies! The carpel would be cruel!

Jack, it's OK to be offended or to have a problem with others and to find nobody does anything about it to make you feel better, it's part of adult life. Considering fewer things an actual problem or being offended less would go a long way to being happier, especially over things out of your control. Just saying.

“Mass Exodus” has been used as an excuse for longer then I care to remember. Even before it would of had any impact on the game cheaters used this as a scare tactic. Gets some new material plez.

Everyone I’ve ever known that’s gotten busted has started new accounts eventually. Maybe the game would be better off if we cut loose some parasite infested dead meat. I’d theorize if word of mouth over bannings could bring back under 20% of honest players that were lost due to said activities we could double the current staff.

That’s some big “if’s” and unproven theory which is exactly like most of what you said.

Get real. Skills gain are a non-issue anymore. There’s so many way to speed training your comment is absurd. Anyone that cries over spending a few days training a skill they will never have to train again (crafting) wants instant gratification or is so entrenched in cheating they can’t possibly imagine spending a min of their time legit playing. Either way they should find a new game to play.

Lastly, b4 you try some faux psychoanalysis mayb try some introspection. What happened in these poor misguided fools life’s to instill a belief that cheating will make them feel better in the long run? They’ll still have the empty gnawing & over compensating egos that come from lack of integrity and self confidence due to never having legit accomplished anything. Ohh, but they will have pixels ! LOL
Just saying... :heart:

It doesn't mean I am wrong!
yes it actually does. Any of the Elite Idocers will just keeping making new accts, the gm's would have to be on 24/7 banning acct after acct, and as soon as one is banned theyd make two more. Simplest way is and gold sink is to drop the house and everything inside dissapears! point blank. They do not have the capability or time to keep banning every single scripting acct.

Whoever made the terrible idea of the house sign not showing is either completely oblivious to the situation at hand or an elite coder himself/herself. That way only the elite of the elite coders would have a script to literally run a rail, and look for spots not open for placement, or start dinging if it finds boxes or something. IDK im not a coder but they would have it and they would score, no one else would.

Just stop anything in houses falling to the ground, too many items as it is, and way too much gold. Great gold sink right there, thats the only legit way it would ever work and quite simple for them to do, all the other fantasy ideas they aren't capable of doing and if it's too complex of an idea they will mess it up and benefit the stay at home scripters. Just like the 5-10-15 hr idea which only benefited the people who don't work and sit at home and script all day. GENIUS'S the devs and Mesanna are LMFAO!

I would def love to never have to go to an IDOC again. Only reason I go is to attempt to prevent the people who don't contribute to society in any way shape or form, from making a living wage off of this game. In a way i'm like their sponsor trying to kick their butt into the real world and make them get a job ha. But with the new system and my real world job i make like 10 idocs a week max. So i'm not putting much of a dent into their rmt wallets. Their is an icq going around about the most infamous idocer out there and this so called packy script he supposedly paid soo much money for. I personally think it would be absolutely hilarious if IDOC's were shut down tomorrow and his so called boasting ICQ "game changer," was null and void. I literally would pay money to see that! make it happen dev's!

Finally all this talk is useless, its why i rarely post on these things. The Dev's who don't play the game or no nothing about the game, are not going to fix the problem, they will make it worse and make it more advantageous for these stay at home scripters. So just beating a dead horse.

Hmm. Make believe I am ignorant, and tell me how having everything deleted when a house falls become a gold sink, since gold is now an invisible number in some netherland. In thje days where 1mil checks could lay and decay, yes it would have been. But now? no gold sink to be had with deleting houses.

Ok so In theory, yes the same amount of gold would be in circulation maybe I used the wrong terminology, maybe i should have said redistribution of wealth. I have no idea what the actual percentage is, but you have to admit that the vast majority of items for sale these days come from idocs, not farming. You take those items away, more and more people would be actively playing the game and farming all the spots to get the arties, dyes, etc, prices for items would actually increase because of the low supply and high demand, the people farming who didn't have a lot of gold would all of a sudden be making a lot of gold from the people hoarding all of it because they wouldnt want to waste time farming with 500 plat in their banks lmao. So the wealth would be more evenly distributed. I also realize that multi account and scripting stuff would still happen at the farming areas, but its far more time consuming with much less of a chance at a reward than idocs. Have to attempt to find the lesser of two evils. So the normal day to day player would still be able to make a good earning in game to buy other things they want or decorate houses etc. I personally think it would be awesome to see lines at Mel runs and paroxy, everyone hanging out and hoping for that elusive drop again lol Harry's popping every night for 25's, and lots of champ spawns for the scrolls. Just in scrolls itself, I average atleast 1-2 ps books weekly from 10 or less idocs, some are completely full. Start deleting them and less in game for circulation. That's just me though, miss the old days. With idocs there isnt a real incentive to play the game. Im just really really hoping they dont do the house sign idiotic idea and allow the same groups of scripters to stay at home all day and find all the houses that have fallen to themselves. You want to stop the cheaters/scripters! STOP IDOCS COMPLETELY!!!
