Thread: Salvage Bans v 2.0    

So Mr Yuffy why does'nt SE wise up and realize the Alex part of the mythic is no longer relevant to how the game is now played and lower it?

Looks like everyone is finally getting the ban stick according to reports from FFXIAH. Draylo and many other prominent users of exploits were banned apparently

you're an annoying troll, go back to your ps2. if you paid attention at all you'd know in game/computer terms the word exploit is the last line of what you just pasted. does a bot take advantage of a flaw in FFXI? no, it's not a "flaw." every game has bots and they clearly don't all share the same "flaw"

if you want someone to explain the difference between an exploit and a bot to you, i'm sure someone will but don't argue when you're wrong

pretty much SE is banning people right now for botting and being more gung-ho about it.

if you wanna stay safe and already have strikes on your account, stop using 12% speed and afk melee scripts

Pretty much what D44k said. They aren't banning people for the Salvage thing. They're just actually responding to other reports now.

The game being dead could be why they're able to respond to a higher % of reports.

The two people I know who got temps were for EF, as they don't do anything else bannable. I don't know if the GMs verified the reports or not. It would be pretty recent reports too as one person has been back for a bit over a month after a year or two break.

"EF" being what? "EasyFarm"?

yup, thought that was common terminology sorry :X
