I voted to kick out those players forever ever ever, and Nevrax should not forgive the ones that cheated sometime in the past, those ones should be banned now also cause they have got probably many ubber items cheating. I have heard that what Nevrax does is just 1 day ban, what is that ?? nothing. Now i understand why some make offers of 40k mats.
Ppl that use bots trade mats for ubber items and in the end they become the strongest players just cheating, and the worse thing is that Nevrax allows it. As usual Nevrax does things wrong, they think they cant ban ppl that cheats, probably cause there are not just a few, cause they think the ppl that dont cheat just will stay in game. Probably that is true for veterans that dont want to leave game even that share the world with some cheaters but if i was a new player i would never start playing this game just for that.
I am really dissapointed with Nevrax, its amazing they allow this. The game was going down but now its going down very fast. They just encourage cheaters to join the game and the non cheaters wont even try this game if they know about this i think.
Cheaters pls leave this game and dont come back. Go to EverQuest, buy a char with max lvl by internet and enjoy what you bought.

Botting isnt something which people can genrally dig and collect mats from- as far as i know thats impossible- i know a fair bit about macro progammes and do you know how hard it would be to create one which could, colect mats, TP to where you can store the mats and then move them- impossible as far as i would imagine. The genral use of botting is to gain lvls not items or materials.

i wish they would ban idiots, but hey ho.
here's something to consider, there are people here who help out others.. and :
: without requiring anything in return.
5 people digging mats ~4000 mats per hour 40k suddenly isnt so bad is it, and with 10 ppl its only an afternoon. *** deleted cause i'm trying hard not to be too ***** ***
Just because you dont have the means to get 40k mats doesnt give you the right to accuse those that can of cheating.

Dont know if they can do it but its suspicious that someone just pays 40 k mats, that is many days just digging.
Anyway even if it is just lvls that is a lot of advantage, and that cant be allowed.

Rushin, i just say that if anyone cheats they must be banned forever, IF you DONT cheat then there is no problem, you can get 40k or 200k if you want.
That is other doubt i have, how GMs know someone cheats or not. I have heard that they just pm the person to see if he is there. But i wonder how can they know someone have been digging too long time. Anyway you just could use bot to dig not too long time and you would never be catched ??
And btw, you cant get 4k mats in one hour at all without careplanners.

Change or not, it's a fact, unlike the one day only ban for all which clearly isn't.
