    This is not as good as the original Salvage bans but it still gave me a laugh. Mostly because of how you could fight the boss again lol.

    Except of course all the exceptions to this. One of my mules was perma banned a couple of months ago.... no warning no suspension. And for something that didn't even happen.

    Or at least I don't think it did but they said they are rolling it back which guess means they really think someone took it and started rmting and they did their investigation all in the 2 hour window from the time I logged off and they banned me...

    Grats on making it back, whether you shoulda or not.

    Gives me hope that a couple of friends that are typically online 24/7 but disappeared 3-5ish days ago start to pop back up.

    No, but there wasn't one for LM-17 either. In fact, SE knew about the salvage duping almost a full year before the bans went out back then, but they just let it sit and fester for god knows why before eventually acting on it.

    Well, that's kind of a good news I suppose, better than no news at all.

    "We are aware you used a movement hack tool to illegitimately generate 30x as much alexandrite daily than we had planned, generating close to a billion gil worth of alexandrite in a 1 month period. Despite the fact we have stated time and time again we are perfectly content with the 30k alexandrite requirement for mythics, we are issuing you a three day ban, and whatever you gained from this illegitimate action you can keep as well"

    Way to go SE.

    I hope it's changed to a permaban. People get away with cheating in this game way too much already. If no permaban at least take away their mythics and all their gil. The last time shit like this happened in salvage my entire LS got perma'd.

    with all the accounts with multiple hacked afterglows(lol) on them and SE not even banning those i'm not surprised that this was only a 3 day ban for anyone doing it.

    alexandrite wasn't removed. can't really blame SE tho, playerbase is hurting too hard

    Seriously...

    I've known about this but haven't done it cause its pretty blatant cheating and I can't be assed to create new accounts behind proxies, etc. Too much work and I'd be too paranoid to send any Alex or gil to myself.

    I don't play much these days, and my days are pretty much login, salvage, log on mule, salvage, log out and go to sleep.

    If they're seriously just giving people a little slap on the wrists for this... Idk, that is just really demoralizing.

    Oh well. Maybe I'll switch things up for a bit and put the mythic on hold. As long as I'm having fun that's the main thing.

    Or maybe I won't.

    Salvage Ban v 1.0 was dumb and I hope SE learned from their mistakes. If they do a 1.0 style ban for this it will be interesting to see who all they go after. I think a lot of players bought that alex without knowing that it was duped. I assumed players with 3k alex in their bazaar were 6 boxing in ashita 5 times a day.
