Ok guys and gals, as most of you know there have been reports from people using a speed cheat. There is a check build in that reports any users of this cheat to a log file.So far these names have been banned from the game and see this as an example. As you all can imagine, this is not tolerated and result is an immediate ban. It doesn't matter if your lvl 1 or lvl 35... 24-9-01: fackjoe 13371ult lotos schinoble6 jennox soultrek jimbaz binkzz These people have been very lucky and their ban was only temporary. Starting the 25th all bans are permanent. 25-9-01 Dragon server FlameBlade PooPee Reaperz Phoenix server Legion Dominus g9dw3adf3212 26-9-2001 Dragon Server RaveNuZi0 awd JohnFish 27/28-9-2001 Dragon server Nightquest Phoenix server Alanon
1-10-2001 Dragon server 008ok arknemesis howareyou 8-10-2001 Dragon server Gravel 14-10-2001 Dragon server Jason1 Omikron Funpire
15-10-2001 Dragon server Navy12 17-10-2001 Dragon server Epico Osamarulez I'll keep updating this list with every player that has been banned for using a speedcheat..
I also ask anyone to report the names of players who you feel use this cheat and I'll make sure he'll be investigated. /Tricky Like I said, I never repeat myself. Level Up!

Like I allready mentioned it is logged. There is a check build into the game that reports any use of it. Sometimes it can be regarded as a lag spike, but this can be checked in the logs.. /Tricky Like I said, I never repeat myself. Level Up!   |

People naming others only makes it easier for them to check as tricky is saying, rather than checking everyone they can just check through "suspects" logs, makes it alot easier, it isn't a case of ban someone cause so n so said they were running 2 fast!Ingame Name : TheSith Level 27 -Warrior Guild : TheSyndicate

Could you be more specific about what happened and why the cheat made her "steal" the bells. As you can imagine I'm only a moderator but I _can_ try to tell them your story. /Tricky Like I said, I never repeat myself. Level Up!   |

I am confused ?If there is a check in the game, why is there the need of reporting anyone ? Can we be clear about this : If someone uses the cheat, it will ALWAYS be noticed and action WILL be taken within one or two days. Can you confirm this ! MageExcalibur Level 24 Thaoist

Well in my opinion 1-2 days is not fast enough. To make it easier for the developers I was asked to report the names of people who use it. They are extremly busy right now and they can't keep checking logs to pick out people who use this. As you can imagine the people who were reported probably use different programs to accomplish this. They need to be on top of every sort of cheat and it's consuming a lot of time allready. /Tricky Like I said, I never repeat myself. Level Up!   |

Why not use this SPEED CHEAT to get over the realy BAD LAG we have.Its only lag thats making this game so slow to lvl. Its getting bad when wolfs can get me so close to deaths door. So if theres a prog out there to make things faster get the programmers to use it in the game?

Nopes she's NOT deleted, she's banned for 1 or 2 weeks. I'd like to point out that Lotos DID GET that account from SOLO and it means that account should be DELETED because it is TRADED account in some way!!! 2bad I hope you get your bells back, because I know how fustrating it is to find rare things if you're not buying them. I have a nice screenshot of Lotos whispering me that she/he got that account from Solo!!! I'll send these screenshots to accounthandlers, LOLZ LOLZ, and Lotos if you read this, you now know I ment what I said when we were whispering to each other and the conversation before!!! /Lippo PS. Cheat in my eyesight and get banned, LOLZ LOLZ... LMAO ...................................... Genesis Dark Knight |

Ok i got the point. Someone who uses the cheat, can do it as long as he is not been seen doing it. If he's been seen than the person who saw it , needs to report him. Then the MIR people check his log and he will be banned. If this is true, then there will be cheaters, i am sure. Isn't there a way to automaticly check logfiles by a computer programm ? It could report suspicious logfiles to MIR people ? MageExcalibur Level 24 Thaoist

Well like I allready said. They have to be on top of every "trainer" that uses this exploit. To be able to prevent further abuse it's best for them to know what exploits are being used. Other games have provn allready that there can be several programs who enable this cheat. Maybe there is one program out there that does something that isn't checked. The best way to prevent things like this is to try to catch it ever before it's used once. Security has to be updated all the time in order to prevent further abuse. This is the reason I asked to report users. It could be that half of the reports are allready under investigation but you might catch that 1 guy that was about to slip through the check. /Tricky Like I said, I never repeat myself.

Tricky, if you are in contact with a GM. Please ask them to replace the items khaania lost. AZAL from HoG as also said he will give back the bells is a GM messages him. AZAL didn't know until after the trade of the bells didnt knwo the story until after he traded them. Many people have been saying about this cheat for the past 2 weeks and only now they are being stopped for 2 weeks. GM's said it was us with LAG?...... I will look forward to hearing form a GM about this. Please do not get me wrong, if Khaania was pk'ed by a non-cheater, I would not be bothered. But 6 thunderbolts in 3 secs is silly. I also heard she killed WT in 13secs?? Thx for ur support Lippo. Toobad HeavensGuardians Guild Leader

My opinion about this is, what else do you expect? Do want them to post on the mainpage that there is a speedcheat that works out there and everybody should try it. In order to prevent things like this escalating is to keep quiet untill you solve it. There is something done about it right now, that's the only thing that matters. /Tricky Like I said, I never repeat myself. Level Up!   |
