General

I think some got banned? Not sure, I wasn't even online during the time this glitch was around xD Finals : (

I think theyre getting the people that leveled like CRAZY first, then going down to like those 10 level people or something

[quote=ForeverLunar]cut this bs lol
your telling me every person complaining at this very moment right now
is LEGIT 100%?
if i offer you a 21attack SCG for 100m. will u turn back? even though u know
a dupe exploit was recent?
also if u knew about the hoblin pq, you wuoldve turned around?

honestly most of u say "ye bro im 100% legit"
stop qqing nerds, its a game. most that people will get from abusing the
glitch that nexon was too stupid to fix faster would be a temporary ban or nothing.
nexon has more things to worry about, and u kids have better things to cry about.
atleast mass a thread about the dc hackers and item dupes. LAWL

peace[/quote]

Lol, everyone just got schooled.

[quote=lolthisisfunny]@Momijii: screw u idk wht ur talking bout i didnt say anything bout worlds u booozzooooo head[/quote]
You're so mature. :>

Im sad. I wanted to be number 4597, but i wasnt on recently

I wouldve liked level 80-150 in a day...

They are giving the exploiters time to transfer equips so dat they can ban all of dah accts . </3

[quote=SomeOfUs]It woudnt be fair to ban those who did the pq once but they could temp ban those who did the pq again and again and again and knowing there is a glitch.[/quote]

exactly what im thinking, i feel like its only fair to ban those that did the pq more than once or like level more than 10 times, cause other wise its not fair

4596 people will get banned.

@Zomarock: Yes you're safe.

[quote=papcracks]I hope the exploiting-positive ones get [b]permanently[/b] banned.[/quote]

+1 ...me too!

[quote=Zomarock]for the love of god someone answer my dam question. is it safe to do things that count as progress? i keep hearing about RBs and i need to know[/quote]

I think you're safe.
Nexon usually RB right after a SC to fix shtuff.

I got from 141-146 nothing happened.

What glitch, never heard of it? Can anyone tell me?

@lld4152: Depends where I found it. If I found it in my house I'd give it to my dad because it's probably his money anyways. If I found it in the park I'd probably keep only because there'd be no way to find out whose it was. If it was a wallet, I'd simply hand it over to the police. My point when I quoted you was to say that you had used the word "rational" wrong. A rational person would've been less likely to abuse the glitch. An objective or selfish person would've been more like to abuse the glitch.

@cocobenz: The number is an opinion. I, as a human, can forgive you for messing up 5 times. I'll still call you legit, I'll still hang out with you, and so on. The number could vary from person to person, such as how it appears that some people can't forgive people who did got more than one round of EXP. It's all up to Nexon to decide what their 5 is.

[quote=xKillerMesosX]only 4596 accounts? pathetic, a glitch like being able to mass level would be used WAY more than that.
4596 is probably only 10% of the abusers.[/quote]

Keep in mind there are 14 worlds, less than 20 channels in each so at max, 280 channels so 280 pq's can go on at once, less than that
knowing some world dont even have 18 chanels, so think about it?
and im pretty sure the're only talking about the Mass abusers like me
84-120, 133-141

I got tired of my UE buccaneer so i made a wind archer, a couple days ago i was 84 when i was notified by the glitch, and went to level from 84-120
now im making my 2nd UE, i just finished like 3 hours ago made a, DK

The glitch was only around for a few hours before Nexon noticed and brought the game offline. Furthermore, the whole thing began at an hour when most people weren't even playing. I'm surprised there were 4,500 accounts for them to go through, to be honest.

[quote=quaker]Wow, what kind of logic is that. HEY I Just beat the snot out of your mom, OH HEY ITS JUST LIFE. PEOPLE abuse, and bully, stop complaining.
{...}
People play day and nights leveling legitly andthese "cheaters" just come in and abuse this glitch to get x10 their level in a few minutes? HELLLLLLLLL NO son.
{...}
[/quote]

Lol, I love you. @Everyone: Imagine a black man saying this.

@Momijii: But that 5 times is also considered exploiting, so those people that even tried twice might be permad.

@Momijii: u find $10 on the floor with no one around what would u do?

I want everyone who exploited it [b]at any time[/b] while knowing about it are [b]Permanently IP[/b] banned. It's just not right. Have some morals people. I would never do a glitch to level-up. It wouldn't feel like the real deal if I did.

[quote=firedannyX]guys you have to think of it this way,
Lets say I were to go to a vending machine (hkpq) and were to buy ONE soda (do the pq once) we all know that only ONE soda (the exp rewarded) should come out right? but what if more than one keeps coming out? would you take it, or would you leave it there? I'm sure we all know its wrong to take what you didn't pay for, but it wasn't your fault that you got more than what you paid for, you didn't ask for it to happen it just happened by its self. we all know you can stop this by unplugging the machine (logging off) but let be honest here are you really going to let this chance slip away?
I'm not saying people who abused this glitch was right, i'm just saying you guys have no right to attack those people.
bottom line is was wasn't 100% their fault, i'm not saying they they are right, just saying its not 100% their fault[/quote]

I guess I'm the oddball.

If I were in that situation, I'd keep pressing up a couple times fo sho. "Hey.. why ain't I leaving? O wait.. woah look at my exp!"
Eventually I'd understand that the PQ is glitched. Then I'd chicken out & log out to leave. I would be afraid to get banned since this sounds like a seriouz glitch.

As for the soda machine situation, hell I'll take it lol. It's the machine's fault & no one saw that I didn't pay for it (unless sodas keep popping out like babies, obviously I ain't gona bring a huge bag and take 'em all).
Maple is a little different, you can get perma banned and lose everything in your account (heavy punishment) and what not. IRL you don't get perma banned for taking an extra soda that popped out. You can get away with it easily imo.

[quote=lld4152]people are rational.
who doesnt want something benefical for them?
exploit or glitch its not the people fault for being rational.[/quote]
Improper use of the word [url=http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/rational]rational[/url]. You could use objective or selfish, but rational is not right. :<

people are rational.
who doesnt want something benefical for them?
exploit or glitch its not the people fault for being rational.

[quote=lolthisisfunny]i pretty sure u scammed sum1 b4...[/quote]
I wonder how I scammed someone in Bera when I play Khaini and Khaini only. Interesting. And on that matter, scamming (in terms of prices) I would not call you some non-legit player. Now, if you did like an item swap scam I'd say you aren't legit. But if someone wants to overpay, sounds like I'm just taking advantage of their stupidity.
Not that it matters, as I said earlier, I don't touch the FM.

@cocobenz:
As I said before: Magically the door would let you out if you had tried 30 times. I can forgive you if you tried 5 times and then realized you were getting EXP and not leaving, but anymore than that it is a shame you don't pay attention.

stil 120 on my hermit <3

guys you have to think of it this way,

[quote=Momijii]Level 110, been playing since 2006. Never did glitch OrbisPQ, never did the glitched Hoblin PQ (partially because I was catching z's, I normally do 1 run a day), never partied with a hacker, rarely buy from the FM.
I'm pretty sure I'm 100% legit.

I agree with Carbunion, it is your fault if you abused the glitch. It's not like the PQ was always like that and we didn't know how it worked. You know you get 1 round of EXP and then leave, any more and something in your brain must trigger a red flag of some sort. If you did abuse it, that's your fault.

And for those who said that they were just trying to leave:
Come up with a better excuse. What'd you think, after you got 30 runs of EXP it'd magically decide to work again? If you were stuck and logged out, you were smart.[/quote]

But when you go to leave, you don't get kicked out of the room, you just get 89k exp and still stay in the room. 99% of people who would be in that situation would press up multiple times to try and "nudge" it so they leave, in turn they just abused a glitch and maybe will get permanently banned. A lot of "100%" legit people too have fallen trap to this glitch without them being able to think it through first.

they can track the 4,596 accounts that glitched
but CANT find the accounts/equips that have duped/ 30+enchanted equips
wtf some of them even smega 300 atk claws how do u not investigate them?

[quote=J4Long]All of you Basilers attacking those who used the glitch need to stop acting like you're the shiznit. I'm almost certain that no one here is 100% legit, not you, not me, no one. And you have no right to bash those who used the glitch lbecause who are you to judge them.[/quote]

@carbunion

Thanks for posting this. Hopefully it will help those who abused this glitch and are defending their actions to realize their mistake.

My two cents: glitch abusers/hackers should be banned, regardless of how small their actions were. Rules need to be clear cut, no need for "weeeeell, I only got 2 levels so I shouldn't be banned. I'll qq if I do!"

[quote=Would]Everyone is SOOOOOOOOOOOO legit, which I doubt. Quit the BS. TYVM.[/quote]

Just because so many people are weak-willed doesn't mean the good guys don't exist. As long as just one person can be 100% legit, then the rest of us just suck in that department. xD

Everyone is SOOOOOOOOOOOO legit, which I doubt. Quit the BS. TYVM.

they should ban them... really? nx messed up. dont blame them for doing something nx didnt fix

if they hacked it okay but dont ban them for using a glitch

[quote=ZeroStorm0]What you say is irrelevant. I do not value this game enough for it to be a mirror to who I really am. Do you know how foolish it is to say that I am a wrong person based of my actions on a game. It doesn't matter what I do on this game, MAPLESTORY COULD IN NO WAY display who anyway is in RL. You don;t know what I look like, You don't know where I live, you don't know how old am I, you don't know my life experiences, and you CERTAINLY don't know who I am.[/quote]

The irony. Thing is, the less you care about the situation, the more you're less likely to take actions to cover up the animal you really are inside. IRL, people care about what others think about them more, so they do a bunch of things just because they're "good" things to do. But in a game where they don't care how others think of them, they skip the "Hmm, is this good for others' view of me or not?" step. Then we get the real you. xD

I don't know much about you, true, but it's obvious you believe it's alright to just go ahead and do the wrong thing as long as it's "just a game" and "no one gets hurt." xD

Probably ban the mass glitchers

[quote=AniHero]It's against the ToS to abuse glitches to gain unfair advantages. No matter how high and mighty you are, you are now considered to be no longer a legit player. Which puts you in the same category of hackers. Think of it like speeding, even when you speed 10mph above the limit and it doesn't hurt anyone, it's still illegal.[/quote]

Most places allow people to go over the speed limit a little and its expected. But i see what youre saying i feel hte same way about people who dupped their items or bought dupped ones. they have no bragging rights because theyre not playing legitimately.

[quote=orangeking11]The actions you take, regardless of how serious the situation is or not, represents who you are. People who try to justify it with ideas like, "it's just a game" or "nobody else got hurt," they just wanna take off the fences to let loose that side of them that shows the dirt they really are underneath. xD[/quote]

[quote=Benchy]I doubt that's everyone who exploited. Out of so many servers they only have 4.5k accounts?[/quote]

considering yea probably because, many ppl arent even high enough to play hob pq, and out of those ppl who can play it, dont do it, and ppl who know about hob pq might not play it or even know about it for 4.5k is pretty decent

@akuma: Oh? How so, besides a new computer/location?

I'm number 4597.

nexon can investagate theseeeeee

i hope they get a ban

[quote=LiQuadz]LOL all you people who didnt do it want perma banned cause you didn't glitch it to cause you guys wern't on or couldn't get a party that just sad[/quote]

Sorry, but I have higher standards than to abuse a glitch giving away wicked amounts of exp.
My character's 100% legit, and I'd like to keep it that way.

[quote=ZeroStorm0]
OT: In REAL LIFE, if something like this happened then I'm sure most just people would take good actions. But this is a GAME, nobody was harmed by people abusing the glitch.[/quote]

@buttbutter i heard people got banned, but i would like to see some SS

[quote=Nanito]@Above OMG its orange the guy that puts xD at the end of every post. I remember you from a looooong time ago on basil.[/quote]

Yep, this old (at least relative to many players anyways) dragon's still around. Think I still got a few more years on me for Maple so I'll be here for a while. xD

[quote=assassincom2]
Come On if u knew bout it u would of abused it So Much! [/quote]
Nope. Not everyone is so weak-willed. I knew of the glitch for many hours before they SC'ed, but I didn't let temptation get the best of me. I don't care really what happens to the glitchers, but at least I know on that issue, I was able to resist doing the wrong thing instead of bowing down and taking advantage of a glitch. xD

[quote=firedannyX]@tcwayne what happened at the orbis one? o_O[/quote]
It was a pretty long time ago, there were two different glitches but they all did the same thing. You pretty much got like 60k exp x 6.
It was a lot more complicated then this though lol

I don't understand how skyrocketing through some levels hurts anyone.
