I have seen some classes other than TB (like venos, clerics and such) running around with tideborn hairstyles. Is this a bug, quest item or a ****? This particular girl is a veno with TB hair. Should I report her or is there a quest that gives you TB hair?

Sorry if this is in the wrong section, I didn't know where to put it. If it is in the wrong section please move it and please let me know where I should have put it. I apolagize greatly. b:surrender

    It's not a **** like using a third party program to enable doing that. It's an exploit of a game feature, and according to ToS, could be bannable.

    But before reporting, make sure is not fashion headgear. Showing the player info on the screenshot can help to clear the doubts more precisely.

    This might be the GMs way of saying don't bother to taddel-tale on people who aren't hurting anyone or having a negative impact on the game and its community? b:chuckle
    I understand its bannable and all but there are hints they're gearing up for bigger update (Tideborn Skills, Yin v. Yang war). Plus, many bugs and glitches have not been fixes for ages, so I doubt they'd really jump to task in regards to one venomancer's hairstyle preferences. I'm kind of happy that the GMs didn't in fact. Let this person be happy and fix real problems, lol.

    PS: I think that character is quite pretty, though I wouldn't be caught dead in a dress like thatb:laugh

    Read that post by Eatwithspoons.

    Whether or not it is harming one's gameplay, it doesn't matter because no matter what it is NOT ALLOWED. No one is an exception to the rule. Simple enough.

    Requesting a lock/delete on this thread, as it may not be naming, but its definitely shaming since if you play the Arch server you can definitely tell who that is. Submit a ticket if you have an issue dont put it on blast on the forums.

    Fail much? Maybe that veno's an alt of yours, hmmm?

    As has been said, it may not be using third party hacks, but is has been stated that it is not allowed. This doesn't mean you should do it just because you can get away with it. Frankly, it won't kill anybody if they get banned or don't, but if they do get banned, then it's their just deserts for doing something you should not do.

    Okay, so I fixxed ur post, although, I have no idea what "what a grass" means. Flaming is not welcome on these forums, and if you want to stick up for a clear violation of the ToS (Terms of Service incase you didn't know) then...well...actually that's not allowed either.
    Next time read forum rules and the ToS before you make a comment on any modding, hacking, or bugging. Please and thank you.

    The GMs told you its Thunder Ponytail (like you said, obviously not), so just let it go. All it means is they don't want to deal with something like this which is more a waste of time. Honestly, I have seen some people who had odd hair for their class (though never checked if it was for a different class only), but I don't bother to report it because it's not hurting me or anyone else.

    Yes, it violates the ToS. Yes, it is bannable. Does that mean that everyone who does it needs to be banned? No, just go on your merry way and report the things that are actually worth the time and effort to report, because there are problems in this game far more severe than what hairstyle everyone is wearing.

    As for you Nova, I have no quarrel with you, but I think you should have just sent a GM a PM about this, because I never noticed who it was until you mentioned it, at which time I looked again at the picture to see.

    Also, congratulations on your faction's win in TW this week.

    Yes, congrats! and this is the only one I have ever reported. I just wanted to see if it was bug or **** or something. Since it is a **** but the GMs do not recognise it as a ****, I will reluctantly let it go. and Sorry for shaming this person. I didn't know they were famous on arch! I'm new, I am sorry to the file editer I shamed.b:surrender

    Edit: The reason why I didn't report something more serious is because I have yet to come across a full-on hacker.

    As already linked earlier in this thread, Spoons' above post deals with this issue. In a nutshell, it's not allowed and you can get in trouble for it. Closing this thread now.
