Warnings of bannable offenses (Can I have it?)

1) grade 10 nodes exist, and are usable, therefore they are legal
2) the whole abandon issue has already been addressed in a dev post and has been declared 100% LEGAL
3) donating leves is also legal, after all, the whole point of leve linking is to boost sp gains as a group, the only thing thats wrong here is someone is hurting themselves in the process by dropped after(the same result coulda been gained by just finding another person and them staying in the group too)


addressing SE to find out what is and is not an exploit is good, but some research into MANY MANY past topics to see if SE has responded to them already is in order

Abandoning levequests: They should have had the foresight to make all levequests selectable per reset. Why we should HAVE to abandon a good levequest because of the possibility of getting stuck with an exceptionally crappy one next reset is beyond me. Have at it.

Leve-link/drop: The only people getting hurt are the donors, and if they're willing donors then more power to them. They rock. Next.

Nothing here is bannable. Hell, nothing here is *warnable*

Did you see my first post here? And the one bannable/suspendable exploit that was known and reported got fixed quick.

which one are you talking about

the only one i can think of along the lines of what you asked is the faction NM one, which was a pretty bad one

theres a big difference imo between being able to repeat a leve for SP every cycle, as opposed to not having to pay the faction points every time you want to do the NM to try and get gear.

in one case, your just passing up the reward to redo it again next cycle
in the other case, you are literaly skipping weeks of work getting faction marks to pay for the next attempt(thats why it was an exploit)

It was an exploit because you can still get allgian runestones after you abandon an retake it. but that is the one I was talking about, was fixed less than a week after reporting it.

I doubt there are people that chose to question its legality and instead replicate it to get mad loots. Which is why TheTwelve is doing the right thing by questioning the legality of the actions.

oh yeah, ok good we were on the same page there

that was definately an exploit, but not cuz of the runestone(which is part of the whole picture anyway) but because of the ability to skip spending 600 faction points to do it every day instead of every few weeks like was intended(well maybenot every few weeks, but it took a bit to get the points to redo it and people were basicaly skipping that by doing so)


and there were tons of people who argued at the fact it was legal when i brung it to my shells attention when i found out about it, including a certain person who has been praised on our server forums who i know for a fact was abusing it to death

Leve abandons have not been declared 100 percent legal. That dev post was actually an interview and it was very ambiguous. This matter has still not been addressed to my satisfaction.

you not liking the answer that they gave back then doesnt make it "not satisfactory and therefor not addressed"

You know you dont have to do phase I and II anymore in order to do phase III if you did them already right?

And I would just report him/her. get him/her banned or suspended or whatnot. And anyone that decided they wanted to replicated it after it was deemed a serious violation.

Damn, SE should worry about the ones that are clearly using a third party program... Theres alot of folks out there to pick on for that. /comfort dude.

wasnt aware you could skip 2 phases and just repeat 3rd

nice to know if i ever bother with them(i personaly have 1000 points in each faction and am too lazy to do the NMs lol)
maybe i should start
