re: Public Service Announcement
the whole point is they took advantage of it and made too much money
if they made only 1 or 2 million, ok, not such a big deal
but whoever was the idiot who bought over 1 million curse removal scrolls or something to that amount, they basically woke NC up and they saw what was going on
those ppl who just tried it once and never again, u were caught in the crossfire and suffering cuz of your idiotic friends who went beyond
whitehand spoke of how much he made
but there is more castles in aden
especially Aden Castle....
considering that castle gets taxes from all the other castles
ppl say it is nothing?
oh it is something
the amount must have been so big, gave them too much of an advantage
1 or 2 million is nothing to a castle owner
100 or 200 million....abit extreme....u made a LARGE amount of money for doing jackshit

re: Depardieu Player Spotlight: Elendel
lying again crazy
i went to fv to fight AA with raven because he lied and said they started it. they did stop when i told them to, and raven hit MiniD because they were throwing insults back and forth like children. i NEVER said i speak for the apple leader, nothing even close to that. i said go ahead and kill him if you must, he doesnt represent us. i could have worded it better but i didnt.
i am the first to defend my pledge members, if its justified. i spent almost 2 hours searching all of aden looking for someone just because they canceled an apple and were a jerk about it.
we never asked you for help, unless raven did. you just showed up and tried to run the siege. like i said before you seem to have control issues....

re: Public Service Announcement
Smurf,
Although I really enjoy our discussion, I hate the fact that you use rumors to be facts. Do you just make it up on the fly?
1. Gee, how come there are GMs on the Korean servers?
They are there to monitor the status of the server. But don't get cute with me on this, you are implying 'why aren't there GMs on the US servers?' Well, there are, but they use the title Monitor rather than GameMaster. It does not change the fact that they both serve the same purpose, to monitor the state of Lineage within the game.
2. Some people just really hate email. Whatever you may say about it, it's the truth. And regardless, email is slower than talking realtime to someone
Why don't you just ask for phone support or something. The cold hard fact is that even the Korean server GMs do not open their whisper for in game questions.
3. Why would a GM sell a castle for 10,000 USD? Richard Garriot owns a castle, but he lives in it and he is not a GameMaster. So, what are you talking about?

re: Public Service Announcement
Weathersmurf,
You continue to refer to this, whatever it is, as not being a bug. For the sake of arguement I will call it a THING. Now this THING has nothing to do with code, as you have implied, and is determined solely by a players behavior in the game ("but that has nothing to do with the coding--it's about players' behavior"). Please correct me if I misunderstand you.
In an earlier post you defined a bug as being "a defect in the code or routine of a program."
Lineage is software. The code was written by programmers and then parsed, compiled, and linked to create the program. The resulting software is machine code that can be run on a computer. Surely, you must agree that: Lineage is created by code, built by code, and results in code.
This said, all allowed behaviors in Lineage must be handled in code. Any behavior that is not handled does not exist. If the code was handled, but handled incorrectly, so that (for the sake of this arguement) adena is duped, it would be a defect in the code of the program. By definition, the adena duping defect was a bug.
What becomes of the magical term THING we created earlier? Nothing, it does not exist in reference to Lineage. Lineage is machine code, and THING has nothing to do with code.
Perhaps everything you are talking about has nothing to do with Lineage?
Then again, you try to compare the adena dupe with fighting monsters in a 1:1 spot. We can argue all day that it was or was not the intent of the programmers for either of these behaviors to be allowed. However, only the programmers will be able to tell us which of us is right. This said, if the programmer says its a bug, it is a bug. How are you qualified to tell him what his intent was?
NC made Lineage. NC said this is a bug. NC is right.
I agree that "Blindly acceping opinions and falsehoods because many others believe them can be a bad thing" but I think it is much worse when you follow yourself when you are wrong. Just so I am clearn on this, I AM implying that you are wrong.
But, im sure you will tell me how the opposite of left is right, and of right is wrong, and of wrong is correct.

re: Ken Spotlight: No9
h2ombre has it - after August 2001, if there is Lineage in your area, you aren't allowed to sign up on the NA servers.

#279 -
GMs may be biased but ACT without bias. However, I know that at least one GM certainly does act with bias.
And I don't think NCI really cares how well GMs do their job =P NC Korea does try to keep out corruption, but...well, when a GM sells a castle on a new server for 10kUSD and runs away, they already got the 10kUSD =P
"Fact or opinion?" Probably speculation.

re: Public Service Announcement
FOOChild,
You said, "NC staff members are allowed to, and DO play this game. It is IMPOSSIBLE for them to be un-bais." If it becomes impossible for them to be unbiased, im sure it will be impossible for them to do their job. What happens to people who cannot do their job function? They lose their job.
Most people, excluding children and those of you how have no morals or ethics, would not risk their job to help their friend. A true friend would not put anyone in that position in the first place.
You also said, "The prat update was put in with the specific intent of having it lead to expliotation/banning, or, some NC developer thought it would go un-noticed and decided to create a little backdoor for himself." Fact or opinion?
My opinion is that you are making things up because you got banned. It was your intent to exploit the bug, and later it was NC's intent to ban you. However, it is humorous to think that NC was plotting against you in an attempt to trick you into using the exploit. How does it feel to have been played like a fiddle?
