PSA: IP exemption and sitting at character select

[heartbrand]

how will this ever be enforced

[Nirgon]

good thread

more of this + sweeping checks for people boxing (plane of sky) pls

automated software is gr8 and all but you cannot replace the 2 box test given in person by a GM

This is how the Uthgaard DAoC kept its streets clean of FILTH

I want to bring this up so everyone has fair notice that we are going to start enforcing this from now on.

If you have an IP exemption, it is to allow multiple players to play on our servers together.

It's not so you can have a 2nd client open on your PC, sitting at character select ready to log-in. This is a common practice on red, as people plug the first client and then immediately log in the one sitting at character select.

That's an unfair advantage to those who do not have IP exemptions, and is abusing your IP exemption. Going forward we will be talking to those found doing so, and if you continue to abuse the exemption they will be removed and you may face punishment.

People who dont have "brothers and sisters" have to risk putting shit on the ground, cant log the druid in for ports, People like Lite and Brainz obviously boxing for years over VPNs, etc, etc... either allow boxing or dont.

This. I would take a guess that over 80% of the people that I have known to get IP Exemptions were using them to box. I can understand the " we need proof ", but sometimes it is just so OBVIOUS certain people are just bad for the server/obviously cheating, that the just need to ban those people regardless. Perma ban that is [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

can you prove its not the character select screen of another eq emulator or the blue server? no?


time to get mad on the internet then i guess

It would be alot easier for Lite to prove that it isn't.


That's just a screenshot from a recorded video. (that was soon after taken down might I add)

Someone of Lite's incontestable e-honour should have no problem uploading video evidence of his innocence.

You must be new here slathar.. You know that with the log policy on p99 is that you're guilty until proven innocent and the burden for providing facts / innocence is on the person being accused. Welcome to P99 pal.

The irony of this is Agatha was accused of boxing and not actually having a brother... then one day the staff found out he was actually telling the truth... be careful who you accuse [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
