SoE commin out with a new system to ban MQ users...

Post by masonic » Thu Oct 06, 2005 3:38 am

At the recent SoE summit,Devs said they are 70% ready with a new system tool that will auto-suspend any account that is suspected of cheating.They said they have logs of all those who have ever used warping,item switching,tracking and other cheats from MQ or other programs like it.
From what there sayin, is there goin through and ban all those that have ever used those programs and cheats and will be releasing the ban numbers soon to discourge others who might think of using them in the future.
If thats true and there serious about it,wont that mean they would ban like a 1/3 of there EQ subscribers and in effect loose a ton of money?

so i guess expect to see this new tool soon in the commin months.The devs name is Grumbuk whos been workin on it.

What's sad is I don't know anyone who would keep playing EQ without MQ2 :?

It is kind of interesting to note the turnout from SOE's threats after all this time.

Warping can get you banned if your account is looked at, which is why I never do it, and recommend to everyone else not to do it.

Other kinds of active hacks can also get you banned. But using MQ2's default, passive, abilities? No problem.

But tracking? Heh. That one's just funny.
