So for a while now, the argument of whether InmateSearch is legit or not has been up in the air. I thought I'd just shed my own thoughts on the topic. I also touch on how the party play "glitch" works.

Also, hit level 240 today.

However, the time frame may be enough with all those x2 EXP events, and all BT supporting by giving EXP buffs...

BTW, zero, do you use the family EXP buff, daily? I tend to forget it exists, and it also stacks up with a lot of things.

That really depends on your definition of "legit". I always wanted to do this rant somewhere so heck, why not here?

Everyone has a different definition for the word "legit". Legitimacy can range from whether someone hacks, bots, account shares, uses dupes, exploits etc. But the question is where do you draw the line? I've already confirmed that InmateSearch does not hack or bot, judging from his experience gain. If I were to train for 22 hours (like I did for a whole week), I'd gain roughly 250b exp on 1x, while using the party play method. I've heard that InmateSearch trains 18 hours, yet he gains 350b a day. The most likely explanation for this is that he's using the duped 1.5x boxes. That raises the question, does him using 1.5x boxes, make him illegitimate? He's still training a crazy amount of hours a day, so does him using duped buffs negate his effort and make him illegitimate?

As for the rumors of him account sharing, he's posted on Southperry, that his vacation is ending on the 29th of Jan. If this holds true, then he should either stop or slow down by a lot. If he continues to train at this rate after the 29th, we'll be able to confirm either that he lied about his vacation ending, or he is indeed account sharing. The final point I wanted to bring up was the party play method. Some people are saying that this is an "exploit". Does this mean that I am illegitimate? I've been playing Maplestory for 8 years, and I've never touched a hacking program, I've always tried my best to stay away from any dupes or exploits, which is why I feel strongly against people calling this training method an exploit.

tl;dr I still think InmateSearch is legit

@boredtodeath555: Nah i dont see the point of challenging people on basil anymore they take one small thing and explode it outta portion lol. I try to suggest to people to first talk to these people before pointing fingers and saying they're hacking. Hopefully he makes it to 250 before his vacation ends =).

@wolf9891: You really should choose your words carefully if you didn't want to sound like you were challenging someone. And here I was, thinking I would get into another fight. I wasn't saying that would be me right now. I already accepted that he's not a hacker anymore because of everyone else using his method of training (especially the luminouses). I'm just saying if I were in everybody else's shoes back when they DID think he hacked.

@boredtodeath555: Not mad,no need to be mad.I can knock you down cause the dude is part of my guild =P. Doesnt matter really cause if i say or if what he says really wont stick with all you people that say that hes botting. Go to HoH or even whisper him hes always there to respond kindly so instead of jumping on that bandwagon,talk to the guy. Everyone says maple has changed but it hasnt players still poop on the higher lvls for reaching a level cap like tiger,curryishott,etc. Everyone thought those people were hacking also lol.

@wolf9891: And where did YOU get your information from? Your over-simplified mind? If I had to be one of those that reported him, I'd be reporting him for botting and saying he's gaining levels way too fast. Not only that, that's what everyone was complaining about. The other guy at least backed up his information, but all you said was "He was banned for something else and Nexon doesn't use people as a resource when investigating bans. Simple is me." So tell me, simpleton, what's the reason for his ban? You're obviously mad at me for acting like I know everything. Why don't you TRY to knock me down?

[quote=boredtodeath555]@Seat: Even if that's the case, other players taking part in his way of activity still played a part, whether you think it does or not. I would say it would play in the part of the "investigation". Had other players not have used his method of training, he would still be waiting to be unbanned. Those players made it a whole lot easier for the investigation to conclude.[/quote]

o_0 the players had nothing to do with the investigation,it was a false ban that had nothing to do with the Gap exp thing. By no means did nexon go look at players to have them play this part that you convinced yourself of. To keep it simple just false ban my god dont over complicate something as simple as that.

[quote=Kiitsune]The thing that bothers me the most is he was banned for it and you weren't. That's just unfair.

It's only BECAUSE ZeroByDivide and a few others trained using InmateSearch's method that he got unbanned. They proved that InmateSearch's method was legitimate. So he can thank them. Of course, he had to disclose his method to the public for him to get unbanned. Had he not disclosed it, he would've still been banned.

That isn't true, it has only been around since they added the 40 level EXP gap to combat leeching, which was around Unleashed. If it was around for 'almost the entirety of gms', how do you think people used to leech at Anego/Bigfoot? It wouldn't have worked.
