Daldaen is a saint. You're a sad loser. There is a difference.

sometime you need to say hey this rule is in place to keep the spectrum at bay

not really
 
kiting is not an exploit. it is the only way a druid can survive being mediocre in all abilities makes him quite worthless to most team comps late game. leaving him alone in the woods, kiting...

talk about exploits how about AoE groups... everquest was such a hard game it forced players to exploit it. my friend was a sylvan elf ranger with dualweilding longswords and composite longbow at level 1 everytime we played D&D.. talk about exploitation!!! lmao


but that's what its all about, figuring out the best ways to exploit loopholes. only problem was back in 1999 people had thick skin.. today in 2019 everyone is a cry baby getting their cups refilled when they spill their milk.

Using zone warps was what was called "an actionable exploit." By using them you could potentially be suspended/banned. Kiting and many others was never an "actionable" exploit.

2001 I was warping across SG on my level 50 warrior, he was a dwarf and all I had to do was log out twice and when I logged back in after that he was safely across the zone. Never had anyone say they had action taken against them for zone warping and was generally used by everyone that was afraid or unable to make the run.

I never heard of anyone getting suspended/banned for warping either, but that doesn't change the fact it was explicitly considered and actionable offense. And more likely than not the first action would be a warning anyway.

If there is no evidence of anyone ever having been punished for doing it, I think it's hard to argue that the offense was ever in any way "actionable".

SG glitching on Bristlebane ... and I assume every other server ... was standard operating procedure. I truly believe a higher percentage of the server knew about that glitch (at least by the end of Velious) than knew how to recharge items.

I've never heard of a cop giving someone a ticket for going 1 MPH over the speed limit, doesn't mean it's still not illegal/. in general they were pretty lax in punishment. I know one guy who duped like 100k plat in gems and just ran around planting them on anew server. Guess what his punishment was? nothing. All he had to do was tell them how he did it.
