LM-17

[Charismatic]

This IS good news

Fuck yeah it is.

[bombard]

You dishonour the man in your avatar with shitty comments like that. Fucking douche

Get bent.

---------

Maybe everyone that gets perma'd can
1)work on the project FFXI team and make the game the way they want it,
2)tweak it enough to get around copyright laws
3)?????
4) Profit

[Lahan]

It's not schadenfreude, it's karma. At least a few people came on to apologize to the community and their friends for putting them in the positions. The rest?
/pissongrave

HEY

thats a waste of perfectly good piss!!

Found it LM 11 = You wont be coming back LM 17 Seems to be a 72 hr ban

Seems to me it's just a matter of them being lazy; if you get a temp ban that becomes permanent they don't bother changing the message they gave you from a LM17 to LM11.

Reading is hard.

Like half of the people posting in this thread.

[Shuemue]

fuck off blowhard, run along and make spurious claims in Fuck or Duck about your oh-so-high standards.

[chapstick]

Ouch this the first 100% mythic perma'd?

Yeah. Asura, if several of these accounts are permabanned, lost most of its relics and most of its players who had a clue of how to play.

Fuck this

[Cairthenn]

Leaving drama to LM-17 thread would make this easier.

[Ohaigaiz]

lancealot is perma

[Aristio]

Miraun, that sig is the best sig I have ever read. lolTH

I still think banning people over a salvage exploit while doing nothing about widespread windower usage is logically inconsistent, particularly since both of these things represent a fairly benign infraction against the TOS. I think both are similar; windower usage is so prevalent because players are under a great deal of unfair duress to use it when the GUI is incapable of adequately handling gear swaps or until recently something as simple as checking an online source without logging off. You'd be faced with the same pressure in Salvage with the natural attrition that an LS suffers over a period of time when members decide the drop rate isn't worth their time and effort anymore.

I believe if a player is under a sufficient amount of this duress, it represents a failure of the games TOS ethics and it's own design more than the communities unscrupulousness in using unsanctioned 3rd party software or in this case, exploiting game mechanics.

Surely, people will defend windower usage much more than so-called salvage duping, but I think the same idea applies to any case where the player base does something counter to developer intentions. It would've been alot better for everyone involved if FFXI wasn't soulcrushing and flawed enough to make cheating so palatable.

DUPING is BENIGN? kill yourself FAGGOT

[Squeelch]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Oh hey you guys tried to glitch Salvage for your 3rd set of Salvage gear? Bitchez get whats coming to them.

I'm actually cumming salvage gear right now.

[bombard]

fuck off blowhard, run along and make spurious claims in Fuck or Duck about your oh-so-high standards.

stop being such a pregnant goldfish for once in your life.

Edit:
Cadsuane, i clicked and i has no ps2 ; ; -- good point about windower however. I think someone mentioned earlier it would be financial suicide for them to ban all windower users, which while very inconsistent, is an unfortunate drawback of running a lucrative business.

[Senoska]

B& the whole end game SE! I'm sure that will make your game popular! Best of luck to those that got hammered.

[Shuemue]

Poor Lance, ahahaha

What will you do? Your life is over, no?

Or will you just RMT a new account?

[Tricen]

SE accidentally the whole game.

New signature ftw.

Oh and I think a lot more people who think they got temp banned are in for a world of hurt.
