The Issue Regarding Losing PvP Score to Gain Extra Defense Wins

“defend wins are worthless.” Right. Because no one’s seen the video, posted by someone in this very thread.

Omigosh :astonished: :see_no_evil:

what in the hell?

How is that even possible?

This is a still from the video that set off the minor firestorm about this particular exploit a few months ago. That is how many resources the exploit delivers, and known exploiters are still in this thread laughably trying to defend themselves.

I never saw that video

There’s still a mirror of it (the exploiter removed the original). The video itself didn’t say how to reproduce but someone spilled the beans in the thread (which was removed, see #1 in Sirrian’s OP).

That’s big bank.

Wouldn’t it be super easy to check the logs to see who ever got that big a cash reward for a pvp battle, and especially multiple times?

Because exploiting like that, especially repeatedly, should be a ban for life, aka delete the account.

Heh… Its easier then that to track. Those rewards came from 1200+ defense victories

Ah, so basically it takes (at least) 2 people… one who gets the l00t, and one (or more) to keep losing against that person?

Yeah… In not sure exactly how it was done but its the reason for this[quote=“Sirrian, post:1, topic:24859”]
There was quite a bit of lively discussion yesterday in in-game chat about the issue where some players would intentionally lose a bunch of games at the start of a week to gain defense wins during the week

lol…

So now we know how some people have endless amounts of gold. ha

And back at that thread some even claimed that doing it was harder than actually playing the game…

One could argue that robbing a bank is also harder then earning your paycheck :wink:

Hence the payout is hopefully higher :wink:

@Drathas i suppose this one is ok? Is this one an exploit?

What robbing a bank?

Not sure where you’re going with that?

Obviously what is described here by Sirrian is an exploit hence the fix they’ve deployed.
Fixing these is always a good thing.

This makes it sound as tho you feel this is ok

Robbing a bank is definitely ok, they rob us everyday!
