Those changes literally change nothing about how the cheats/scripts in question work. AKA the whole reason they changed to rolls in the first place?

They made changes cause it was proven (and becoming common knowledge) that the current method of footracing for FTE's was able to be scripted for an unfair advantage. Then they proceeded to do nothing to really change that or prevent unfair script advantage and reverted to the old system with some changes that are basically irrelevant to the scripting issue.

Confusion

People have been scripting races and fte triggers since VP well before velious ever launched here. The idea that ppl just started scripting in kael and the staff just figured out how computers work is righteous

At least someone admits to the cheating, that’s relieving at least.

As I said originally it's now becoming common knowledge and likely being abused a lot more heavily than most people even realize. Scripting in video games has existed since probably pre-Everquest. Nobody is arguing it was invented yesterday. It's just a bit mind boggling that the staff would be fully aware of the issue and how easy it is to cheat and how its next to impossible to detect/prevent and they still think a FTE footrace that starts based off of a line in a /log file or via trivial pixel detection is a good idea. It's a cheaters dream come true honestly. Fractions of seconds often decide who wins these races. Anyone who thinks scripting isn't an issue here is not too bright.

If you allow guilds to KS raid targets. Scripts will become less emphasized. Make it rly hard to mez/memblur raid mobs even with full debuffs. Call it a day. Ban gratuitous training and zone disrupting with 3 week suspys do it often. And hunt and permakill the accounts being powerlvld to evade bans. Gg.

and ban the ppl powerleving the alts.

Also enable pvp. Turn off exp loss on death. Allow training, and disallow xp zone disruption and problems even more gg.
