I too am crashing at the Cryptic load screen. The load bar goes almost half-way and then the hard drive starts clicking as if a hard disk from the 90s was inserted. This started occurring after I recently updated a critical security patch for windows XP sp 3.
I was trying to be diplomatic with the wording, but you are right. It is complete exploitation and we have whole groups of people devoting their time to doing it just to get the crypt advantage and that stream was evidence of it. Cryptic, this is far from acceptable. Remedy this.

To go with reckless abandonment with the great weapon fighter as I write a sonnet about the spring breeze of Neverwinter's mountains. *nods* .... and probably pop some goblin heads, can't go wrong with that.
