    Yes, please, take advantage of another glitch and lvl as fast as you possibly can! We need more "Oracle Noobs" ingame! :P

    Actually, this whole thing doesn't bother me so much. If people wanna hurry to 105, so be it. I'd rather take the time to master every possible aspect of the game as I lvl, which was the whole point in playing this game in the first place.

    I'm more concerned about the way Rank gear is awarded. So far, my lil Mystic here always gets AA, but I'm a LA build, so I stopped getting the early rank gear, hoping that the later ranks actually let us choose, or is based on the build, not what the class is "supposed" to get.

    Salvation is great once you figure out that you're better off running in manual mode with skills disabled.

    it never will. rank is what you're "supposed to get" and nothing more

    Bottom line - they never cared about whether the glitch is exploited or this thread or anyone's concerns - look how quickly they changed the Official Announcement on SP pking yet left the "bannable" status of goonz glitching hidden somewhere in this thread. That my friends speaks volumes. This thread should die along with any remaining collective faith we have in PWI.



    Glitching is still bannable, even if the EXP rate has been reduced dramatically.

    Wait, wait, wait...so it was reduced? Now that the problem is solved somewhat, is there going to be any looking into the current 105s. Or are they just lucky and it'll be bannable even though it would no longer give that good of exp?

    Sooooo.... how about addressing the thread that has accumulated 1,231 posts in the span of 5 days?

    http://pwi-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?t=1180311

    Furthermore. If glitching is indeed "bannable", care to comment on why so many lvl 105's are running around unscathed by any banhammer?

    ...or do you intend to remedy that the same way Secret Passage was...

    the boss can be glitched on accident actually. u can message me for the details. pretty much a friend was running a low lvl through to repay a favor when he was a low level on a different server. the low lvl died and the glitch took place. it was a TT99 BM soloing it. ive seen a video of it he sent me in an email when he went through. granted wasnt the "full" glitch. only a hand full appeared. so Acciddents can hapen to cause the glitch. i remember him swearing in the video cuz he thought he was going to get banned. all i told him at the time was to give them the video, and they will determine from there whether to lift it if he does. and im in agreement with the R9's. if anyone plays or onced did on harshlands, anyone know Riga? last i heard he has 35k+hp buffed in tiger w/Lunar-Nirvana gear. Sins aren't the only OP class out there. ive seen a sage 5aps BM (it is possible but costs alot of money) On the other hand pop bramble rage, sins will die fast, due to their 4-5aps and crit rate/hit. i think personally too many people are powerleveling to get high fast to get their aps. yea i understand the questing gets redundant. but if u dont like it, why do you play a RPG game? why put the time in for one character, and not another. 1. ur ruining the games intended purpose for gaming experience's.

    --note-- this person was intending to make a Youtube BM Solo video for FC. thats the only reason he got the full video of it. but since it glitched. he put the exp he gained into his friends genie.

    It's bannable, but we haven't banned everyone who exploited it. It's like Gouf or selling Blessings - the fact that some people get away with it doesn't make it any less illegal.

    Um.. why aren't they banned anyway? It's not like you don't know who the people that got to 105. Right? If it's bannable... and they obviously used the glitch to get to 105... then where's the ban hammer?

    Some people have gotten away with it? You mean everyone but maybe a couple dozen players have gotten away with it. Saying it's illegal but having no way to police the issue is just hilarious. Clearly you are not familiar at all with the issues players face in-game concerning people exploiting this glitch.

    How can you even say that it's illegal when looking at the rankings page. You really can't tell who glitched by seeing who went from level 100-105 in under 3 weeks? I certainly can, maybe you should get your head checked.

    I think some players also get away for other things like using obscene language in the forum... b:bye

    What are you even talking about. You really think you can influence a ban duration by talking to an administrator and asking for a perma ban? Thanks to clearheaded people? What? In your post you just basically said that you agree that it should have been a perma ban. Clearheaded would hint that the people who make decisions are thinking clearly. Understand? So are you admitting you are not/were not thinking clearly?

    Oh I get it so you are complimenting my posts. But wait, you're criticizing my QQing? Please explain yourself.

    Oh and back to my original question. What have I said that is obscene? On a side note good job hijacking this thread.

    so you know the cheaters, you know they cheated, you have the proof, right?
    but somehow, "some people get away with it"...
    how the effin eff is that possible?
    isn't that a rule for all?
    or we're like , everyone is equal under the rules, but some are more equal than others.

    So frankieraye you're basically enforcing rules on the weaklings, stupid, cowards and nubs. Whoever has some balls doesn't really care about your rules and the proof are the 200+ ppl that look at you, point to their crotch and laugh out loud "I haz balls to cheat".

    PS: and no, it's not like selling blessings or other small glitches.Why? if I have to argument that to you, I don't think you're working in the right place.

    fixed for you -

    tho I'm sure some meaningless 3 day bans were handed out - just enough time to level an alt to 100+ on a different account before logging back in to the shiny new 105 they now possess

    thats ridiculous. ppl shouldnt have gotten away with it in the first place. this is not just some random petty glitch we are talking about. this is a serious glitch here. the fact that some ppl got off scotch free and are happily at 105 is just not cool. what if the devs decide to add content for 105s? do you know how unbeleivably unfair it would be for the players who have not done this glitch? they would have to spend months trying to grind to 105 where as the glitchers already got to 105 in a matter of days.

    please think of the future frankie. just because level 105 is useless now doesnt mean it will be useless in the future. so dont take this so lightly. if u truly are doing everything you can then i apologize, but with 200+ players 105 and the rest of them 104 then i cant help but admit that u guys have a problem.


    btw how long are these "bans"? are they tempoary bans? because u do know that once the temp ban runs out they will still be playing on there 105 characters right?

    this is completly unfair. im am honestly trying hard to not rage here but its gotten to a point where guilds are starting to invite pure level 104s-105s in rank 9 now and those same guilds are helpiong there friends glitch to 105. its getting sickening because the rest of us legit players have to agonize and torture ourselves to get even to 104.

    Ursa and rainbowyoshii both have very good points. I think another thing that has alot of players annoyed is that it seems like nobody is checking these lvl 105 and banning them if they did exploit the glitch to reach that level.

    If people can hit 105, stay at 105, and post on the forums using lvl 105 avatars. It kinda sends a message to the playerbase saying "Its perfectly okay to glitch to 105 so long as you don't get caught while doing it. Once you are 105 people won't even look into how you did it."

    I wonder if you can track how fast someone levels from 100-105? Core connect seems to be able to tell when players hit certain levels. If the pwi database can do the same thing. You could track if someone hit 105 from 100 suspiciously quickly? x.x

    exactly. ppl like astrelle who posts on these forums ALL the time was known to be lvl 101 for AGES before this glitch. then all of a sudden she shoots to 105 just a few weeks after this glitch emerged and she STILL continues to post on the forums as if its no big deal.

    that says alot about what the GMs are doing and it sends a bad message like u said.

    w/e level she was i know for a fact she got to 105 in a short ammount of time soon as this glitch emerged. i find it to big of a coincident for her lvl to shot up to 105 that fast during the weeks the bug first emerged.

    cant expect me to beleive a archer went from 103---> 105 in less than a month.
