I agree. I have never done any of these Mallyx quests or w/e its called, but have a friend that has done them without any knowledge of the exploit/hack and got banned.

These games cost real money, in my own thoughts it is considered a form of fraud. Dont ban these people permanently unless you find out who the original hackers were, then ban them. Why not instead take all their gold away and completly strip their inventories. Dont make their games they spent money on "unplayable". Its like a trial without a jury or judge

You people are missing the fact that this WAS A 3RD PARTY HACK THAT GAVE THEM ACCESS TO THE AREA. It is not like the consulate docks, or guild hall travel, or mission exploits. IT WAS ONLY OBTAINABLE WITH THE USE OF A HACK!......

Urgoz was an example -_-. Some people make teams in Guild Halls with guild teams+1 or 2 friends. Your post still doesnt make sense

Again this is a game everything that they gained can be taken away from them their money their weapons everything can be taken away so that they may prove themselves. Anet does not always make just bans someone repeats a quest over and over and gets banned you doubt me well ask some of the saviors of the kurzicks they have been banned for simply fffing alot to get their title Anet does not always make just bans. When a company screws up and know that eventually someones human nature is going to take over and they might exploit it then the company is held responsible just like all companies they should be held responsible for the problems that they are too silly too take the time too look over a dat file 3 times is what it should be for any glitches in the game any problems that might occur in it and if a problem is missed then they should go in and take whatever was taken and put it back to normal

Could have been a corrupted DAT file too, or some bug which overwrote 2 bytes in your memory.

They deam themselves gods on their game, and any opposition is heresy. It seams much easier to continue a lie by calling it a hack. When in reality the mechanics are no different then a simple ferry. Whatever Anet says becomes fact, whether it is logical or not.

Okay. So, do tell why we should believe the abuser of the exploit/hack and not ANet.
Do you have any information that may prove ANet is wrong and that guy is right? Do you have any confirmed records on how the exploit/hack was performed from any third party (not ANet, not someone who was banned)?
Is there any reason not to trust ANet?

Ok, fair enough.

It's still hedonistic desire to exploit something that wasn't meant to be exploited.

Also. if 117 people could hack like that...Why arnt the 117 people working FOR anet ?

BlackSephir · Jan 11, 2008, 08:14 PM // 20:14

And those people that took advantage should be permabanned in every online game, k?

They do have problems passing on information to other employees. Mini Polar Bear anyone??? Doesnt make them the most trust worthy. Plus Gaile Gray said it was a Hack and i tend to take her words and believe the opposite

I agree and that is why I never did the duncan bug/whatever they want to call it. They should get banned it is very clear from the quest what you need to do to get to him yet people simply did the bug/whatever anyways that is called exploiting the game.

Quit lying, to us, and to yourselves.

It seems like most people nowadays refuse to accept responsibility for any they do wrong doing. It is easier to blame any and all things, other than to say I was stupid, I did it and will now take the consequences.

i dont know personally, ill do my time one way or anther it doesnt matter, but somewhere along the line you musta missed that there could be a possibility that this has nothing to do with hacks. i dont believe my freinds would willingly take me to do hacks, some guy i barely know maybe.. but not a real friend.. but in the end it could swing either way so it doesnt really matter.

Would you want someone to work for you who damaged your game?

That helps you how?

ANet created the game. By default, you cant get banned for abusing anything? What kind of insane logic is that?

truzo 117 · Jan 11, 2008, 08:18 PM // 20:18

The real reason Anet banned us IMO is because the economy is bad anyway. and there looking for a reason to hold the blame. could be wrong but w.e

The Duncan was so much worse than this and Anet are being very unreasonable.

to "save" the economy all they have to do is delete all the items/cash on the banned acount and then had the accounts back

simple fix everyone is happy
