Beware the gnome Whukes

[Danth]

Fraps wouldn't even help you here. Nobody's questioning the things a 30-second video would show: Both of you were present at the time. One guy engages a few seconds after mob spawns, the other person engages ~20 seconds after spawn.

... as I said, FTE and firepower. Sounds a lot to me like KSing, but there you.

I think you pointed out that the reputation hit alone makes for an expensive FB earring.

I just wanna be the first to say, this thread is fucking win. I'd like to thank all the contributors.

such a pointless witch hunt.

I hope this thread doesn't tarnish your name too much whukes, though it seems that was the entire point of this post since the op had no claim to hadden and is just pissy he didn't get the tag because he was busy watching cartoons.

just my opinion, if a dispute is brought to public forums gm's should just wash their hands of it. If people want to handle things the way they are supposed to be handled, petitions etc great, the moment they bring it to public forums trying to slander a player because theyre upset they obviously don't care about the issue they're just mad they were beaten and want to ruin the guys rep.

Whukes /friending you as soon as I log in, hell i might give you some cash for being an UPSTANDING member.

Quick Fraps question - I have the buffer loop set to 30 seconds but my test video didn't have the 30 seconds from the buffer. Did I do something wrong here?

You have to hold down the "record button" until the numbers go purple.

For example, my record key is F10. (Be sure to disable whatever F10 does when you're in EQ so that it only records and doesn't issue a command to EQ). I have my buffer set to 40 seconds. When I fire up FRAPS I get the yellow "standby" numbers. I hit F10 and hold it down. The numbers will briefly turn red and then purple. Once they turn purple you can release the key.

The buffer is then engaged. When you want to record video simply hit F10 (or whatever key you set) and the numbers will turn red to indicate it's recording. You will then have the previous 30 seconds + whatever you continue to record. To turn off recording just his F10 (or whatever) again and the numbers will go yellow. Wash, rinse, repeat.

Note that free/trial versions CANNOT use the buffer.

It absolutely is borderline KSing/dickmovery, but there's not much else that can be done by the decision makers short of useful evidence being offered.

Let's be clear here - the rules may say that camping a spawn that is outdoors doesn't give you enforceable rights to that spawn, and that FTE aplies, but Whukes knew he was being a giant twat and basically stealing the spawn.

OP is justified in being upset. Any normal person would be, and nobody is going to go "lol dangit well played sir i was looking away for 20 seconds, congrats". Tarnished reputations is a justified consequence after acting like a prick - whether you technically broke the rules or not.

As would anyone else in similar circumstances. This may fall into general etiquette, but if someone is camping the AC and clearing PHs for hours and you get FTE you're being a shitface, and you're going to make some enemies, and your reputation may suffer.

Welcome to the power of community. Thanks for the heads up on your ingame ethic, btw.

kylok should have let this go through the GM's. If he does not have good real proof then well you learned a hard lesson. This ends up as both parties looking stupid as far as I can tell. Waste of a thread. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] kylok will look like a ass if he is wrong.

Was it legal to come KS Hadden? Probably. Was it a scumbag move? Definitely.

Lesson learned, though from what I can tell letting it go through the GMs wouldn't have done me much good.

Thanks for the fraps info Frieza I've got it working now.
