Request* Perm Ban for Repeat offenders

--- Quote from: JovankaB on February 07, 2011, 12:37:39 PM ---There is a difference between testing exploits and using them for your own purpose. When I was a GM I met only A FEW people who were actually interested in TESTING and REPORTING exploits, definitely not behavior of average competitive PvP "pr0s" who are only interested in abusing bugs to gain advantage over other gangs and not reporting them (at least not until other gangs find it out).
--- End quote ---
Ok, next time I found an exploit like the FN fal one (30 FN fal on one bootleger) I will exploit it as much as possible without reporting it. I am a "PvP pr0 10yo nolife" after all.
JovankaB:
I'm telling that it's very uncommon. Of course PvP "pr0s" are interested in testing PvP aspects of the game and writing suggestions related to PvP and reporting bugs that make their life harder. But majority of them are not interested in reporting actual exploits - reporting bugs that make their life easier. Let's just say one honest player from a very big PvP gang had to report us exploits in a secret, because his friends told him they will throw him out from gang if he reports it.
I don't know what's your problem Crazy, I told that it's majority that isn't interested, not all.
Sarakin:
But thats how it works now. Serious exploits are reported secretly not only due to reasons you have described but also because of the severity of the exploit. And thus, you cant know who is honest and a good tester and who is not.
JovankaB:
But his gang knew the exploits, so there was no point of keeping it secret from his friends that he reports it. He had to report it in secret because his gang didn't want to reveal it.
GMs know who isn't honest, if they find out people exploiting. You can tell they aren't testing if they don't report it immediately. If someone reported exploit you can't tell unfortunately - he could use it for a month and finally report it. But I can tell how many people reported me something over six months of GMing, and let's just say the number isn't to big.
avv:
Jovanka has a point. Just monitor the threads here: the public reports made of exploits such as various gridcamping, npc ai abuse, idolized status abuse and such were all made by the victims not the actual culprits.
