Danger at the Hakutaku >Follow

So this weekend [link=www.intensityls.ipbhost.com]Intensity LS[/link] went to fight Hakutaku. On our 2nd or 3rd fight, I got a tell from someone asking me if the Redapples and Forlove had really MPKed us at Hakutaku and stole the mob. This hadn't happened, and if the rumors were true, I really feel sorry for whatever LS had this happen to them.

Well, it was my turn to spawn the Hakutaku when all of a sudden I see;

Redappleee pokes Leeluu.

And next thing I know about 6 of the most notorious gil sellers are there. Not wanting to chance losing my cluster, I waited to see what they were up to. They were NOT farming eyes, they were just sitting there waiting for me to spawn Hakutaku. One of them even has an Optical Hat!

I called a GM to see if he would watch the fight to make sure those as[b][/b]s-shats wouldn't try anything, but after waiting for almost an hour with no response, we just warped out.


So my warning to anyone going to attempt Hakutaku in the near future, watch out, whether they manage to claim Hakutaku from you or not, you still lose all the work that goes into aquiring a Hakutaku cluster.

Ugh, damn gil farmers ~.~
And that's all I hafta say 'bout that....

hmmm. The gil sellers must be stopped but aside from mpk their asses to hell there isnt much we can do.
Im not high enough to do the haku runs yet maybe oneday. I hope the gil farmers lose interest by the time i start doing it.

and risk account suspension? psssh :P

I don't mind others doing it, but I do not participate ;) ummmm, but i have connection lost-ed before at random times.. /shrug

Because they are teamENVY and probably work for the same people anyways

I'm sure it is possible to cause other people to lag out and DC. I remember in PSO, people had the ability to cause the dreaded Frozen Screen of Death to happen to people, causing you to lose all your items that weren't in storage or equipped thanks to a genius move by Sega. -_- I wouldn't be surprised if there's a similar method to do it here.

These groups have many more toys than most of us are aware of, I'm certain of it. They're good, unfortunately. And really the only one who can take care of them is SE, and they're just not willing to do so. They say they banned 500 accounts, but I wouldn't be surprised if they were just coincidental. All we got was an extremely vague explanation of what they did. We don't know if it's gil sellers they banned or just 500 random people who happened to have caused grief crimes. Is it so uncommon for people to commit those crimes? I'm sure you all can think of 3 people right off the bat.

I guess basically it's time SE stops ignoring the problem and hopes it goes away. They already have more server issues than they obviously can handle, it's not wise for them to let *this* go too. Because even I may become a statistic and quit because of their incompetence.
