Just for reference, another thread showed this as an example of not trying too hard in MA but achieving a 50 in a quite extraordinary time.

Just in case you hadn't seen it yet.

Of wich i already replied, lvl pact and wack 50 mobs, beat my 15 minutes from 1 to 50.

So we got 1 screenshot, thats it? That is what the whole fuzz is about, that 1 person got 50 within hours? Or that player B got lvl1-20 in 20 minutes but took 40+ hours on the remaining lvls?

[/ QUOTE ]

If it was a 1000 screenshots it wouldn't change your position, or mine, but there seemed to be some doubt about whether it was possible or not.

I just wanted to post something that at least appears to show that it had been done at least once and was therefore repeatable.

Sorry if that caused any offence.

[/ QUOTE ]

No, no, no, no, that won't do at all!

It should read something like this:
"I'm offended that you're offended by my comment! Sorry? If that caused any offense then my work here is done! Muhahahaha!"

Problem with images like that is it's quite simple to have a level 50 in 1 hour. Level pact, never log in, let the other partner get to 50, log in.
I guess we'll never know for certain, but I'd like written claims as well as a simple image.

My latest alt, a Shield/Super Strength tanker, is currently level 43. He has been played for 151 hours, and this is the fastest alt I can remember playing.
I have played a lot of the Mission Architect missions, but almost always solo, so I can read all the text and take my time .

I'm pretty sure this alt is safe, but I thought I'd put up some numbers, as I've seen "level 50 in 6 hours!" bandied about. What is the fastest that anyone has seen? Real numbers, please!

US posts in response : 3384
EU posts in response : 468

We seem to be very poor at whinging in comparison.

I'm proud of us .

The "fact*" is positron is ruining the game. WHAT CAN BE FARMED, WILL BE FARMED. This will NEVER change.

Positron is only harming the majority by doing this, and NO, before you ask i did NOT make a RCM farm, and i have NOT powere levelled any toons 1-50 in a dy.

I'm a completely legit player who's just seeing the bad side of everything posi is doing to take out a minority.

[/ QUOTE ]

All Posi's done so far is make a Position Statement. He hasn't (as far as anyone has said so far) actually deleted accounts or characters.

Saying "Stop it", and warning of punishments is harming nobody except those with thin skins and guilty consciences.

(*fact? Really? You must use a different dictionary to me . )

Read more carefully.

The first sentence of the extract from the I14 patch notes is about banning missions containing 'exploits that provide unintended statistical advantages' - that could cover some farming missions (although I've asked before for definitions of terms which haven't been provided).

The second sentence mentions that players/authors advertising such exploitable missions may be banned from MA or have their game account closed. The second sentence even explicitly states advertising through the Mission Architect System.

So:
Farms providing great returns may be considered to contain 'exploits that provide unintended statistical advantages'.
If so then the authors may have their game account closed for publishing them (i.e. for advertising them through MA by making them available in the search browser).

I'd say that that pretty much mentions banning people for farming if farming is considered to use 'exploits that provide unintended statistical advantages'.

[/ QUOTE ]

Says ABSOLUTELY nothing about people who NEVEr made farm missions but just joined them.

It only cover people CREATINg farm missions and not even that, since farming wasnt an exploit before positrons post.

If "farming" accounts were banned prolly 70% of all EU accounts must be closed since almost everyone "farmed" either inf, recipes, or pl their toons with the sk system in the "normal" farm mission once in a while.

And 90%* of statistics are pulled out of the poster's a** to further their own position.




(*This 90% was pulled out of my a** to further my own position!)

(Not a reply to the person above, just a new post)

There's a lot of loud whining in this thread.

It reminds me of children complaining "It's not FAIR!"..........








.........when deep down they know it really is, they just don't like it.

If that Brute was from 1-50 over 3 days, it might be better to keep quiet about it right now

Hehe .

Delting toons that has been powerlvled by players using the tools the DEVS gave us is no exploit at all.

You cant punish players for using the tools the devs gave us.


[/ QUOTE ]

Every exploit used by players in-game has been supplied by the devs, unless those exploits involved hacking NCSoft's database. So just arguing "You gave us the tools!" isn't much of an argument, to be brutally honest.

[ QUOTE ]
hmm another eg of them doing what they wannt.... the balanced and fair thing is irony at its best and banning toons that have used ma to 50

all i will say is once CO comes (and yes still not greatest fan good bye CoX)

im off to play a fairer nc game GW for now screw CoX

[/ QUOTE ]

So combatting abuse of a new system is "unfair"?

...............either I really don't understand you, or I disapprove of your activities. Probably both. Shouting this makes you seem.......guilty. Saying nothing would probably have been wiser, you've painted yourself in very dark colours there.

And probably made sure that your account is checked as a matter of priority.

The game was updating, and the servers were offline. Waiting 30 mins and trying to log in again would almost certainly fixed it with no need to mess with executables.

Both Magic and Valkyrie (Mac) packs give capes at level 1.

There are a few people from the player pool they should at least offer jobs to.

Mids and Samuraiko are right at the top of the list.

And the timer will be changed back to 30 seconds to avoid a crash which can happen with the 15 second costume change.

Happy Birthday, ML!

So, Posi and War Witch came across to talk, and we got some chat, some facts. These were collated and posted and digested and discussed, both here and US side. They then went US side and chatted, but said nothing?

I can't find a single fact about any information given US side. So either we got all the info, or I'm rubbish at searching (quite possible), or the US side is really good at keeping secrets, or.....something else.

Does anyone have any info from the US side?

Cheerio, Mr GhostRaptor/Alex SAH!

Enjoy that first Monday morning, you've really deserved it. Enjoy the Ashes, you have nothing to fear. It's been great to see you at events, it's really sad to see you go .
