Moreso than people who don't have an IP exemption I'd imagine - good to see the exemptions being checked on and abuses of them resulting in suspensions etc.

It is considered an abuse of the IP exemption and has been admonished/punished in the past.

Wait 30 seconds before hitting enter world if you don't have aggro after a /q. Give it a few minutes if you did have aggro.

For about 60 seconds, or however long it takes your account to clear out of the game which is usually 30 seconds to a minute.

Trouble with this rule is it really only affects the ignorant. Duplicate ip addresses are easily avoided. I bet there's a ton of people 2 boxing with impunity.
Ah, but can they pass The Test™?

Exactly what this poster says. Camp out correctly and you wont have an issue. /q out of the game and load up another toon straight away and we will be chasing you [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
Because /q isnt classic I suppose or something like that. Might need to do some more work on dsetup.dll to distinguish between someone that /q and someone that /camped out. Should be easy since the no response to packets sent thing should be the same from someone that /camp 'ed out and someone that /q.

Not really about classic or not.

/q, by its nature, skips steps in the natural camping procedure that causes the system to delay notice.

/q is fine to use, just give it a couple minutes between log ins or save yourself time and know for sure you are out of game with /camp

Not really that big of a deal, and not really worth the effort to code. It's pretty clear who's boxing and who was just switching characters too fast.

If, as a player, you're concerned about it, simply wait a minute or two after /q'ing. It's never been an issue for us from a CSR standpoint, though.
