Thread: Possible Credit Duping solution, thoughts?

This may well have been asked and answered, but:


Ifthe SOE team can really track the flow of credits as well as has been reported, why is the solution not:


Ban those who can be shown to have duped, and delete every duped credit from the game ?


I realize this would have some fallout...i.e. some innocent people who were paid for legit items with duped credits would lose them. But isn't this preferable to being banned because you got paid in duped credits, or got maliciously tipped?


Thoughts?

Well, this would be the SMART way of doing things, and SOE just doesn't play like that.

That would be preferable to me, but of course I never came in contact with the credits. This should be asked of those that have been affected and not the community as a whole. Most in the community might see this as a good idea, and maybe even some of those that were duped. But there was a LOT of money transfered thru Intrepid and a some of those banned will be feeling it for a long time to come, if they're even allowed to come back.

Nice work guys for scaring people like this. I had a nightmare last nite about all 6 of my accounts being banned.

perhaps this is the reason I dont see any of my guild members playing. Either A. they got banned or B. they are too afraid of getting "set up" to be banned.

*shakes head sadly*


So once again players must police the game for SOE...... instead of SOE simply fixing their code in a fast enough manner that it's paying customers are not still wondering what the hell is going on.


THE SOLUTION TO THE "CREDIT DUPING" PROBLEM IS FOR SOE TO FIX THEIR CODE!!!!

I don't think its smart to ban people just for coming into contact with those duped credits. I mean.. couldn't someone who duped credits just tip everyone in Coronet 1 credit and have everyone banned?
