"NEOXIAN"Without getting my head chopped off -

I was around when a handful of coven were doing this to magma beast lord in Dsoma GV only a few weeks ago, I reported it and Dan came along and warned them to stop or he will remove NPC. No ban mentioned.

100% exploit and should carry more than a 7 day ban - you have to be kidding yourself if you think abusing game mechanics isn't instant ban, no warning is required. How long has this been going on for GV owners to tank basically untankable bosses?

Needless to say the Dsoma guys didn't get banned and that set precedent on future game mechanic abuse in my eyes. Maybe Dan was in a good mood that day.

Not naming and shaming the Dsoma guys, there's enough hostility as it is.

Not a single person in NM who got banned is aware of this.

How are they supposed to know if it was never publically posted on forum or similar?

"SANDOKAN"i say let Xmas spirit prevail .. unban evryone who has been banned for this and next time give a warning first in stead of ban immediately

soma community is already small enough, it needs its active players... no need to make it even smaller for things like this

maybe first give a warning to clarify things .. then ban and there will be no problems bout it

If you baned a lvl 100 characters (phyra/sybertooth/hurricane/slither/rare etc) that never do anything wrong in game and you don't give an explanation or anser messages in that stage of the server because someone appear when we start killing a boss and start saying screen that and that I don't accept it.

just a little insight, i'd logged off because was uninterested in killing dionaea, came back to pvp. this continued for another 5-10 mins after the video ends however i didn't record. was eventually hit and run'd to death, can quite clearly see that i didn't hit the boss or use the healer. don't see phyra or sybertooth at all but nevertheless, RIP.

edit; special mention to hurricane for tanking those DB's

It's clear, from the start, the excuse of 'I thought it was okay' isn't going to hold. I would suggest anyone under a ban or punishment for this, fairly or wrongly, admit that aspect and state clearly, it is clear to a toddler that what you were doing was taking clear advantage of an innocent error within the server. That doesn't make your actions innocent but it does mean you wasn't creating a macro or program which interfere with the games interface.

Ghostlord has a role to do, especially with Dan on limited availability due to his family and Finito being limited in life. I commend Ghostlords activity, openness and the fact that he is taking action to make this server a fair and longstanding Soma.

As a player is too low to care about level 100 characters or bosses, I would suggest the following:

:: A clear announcement on this issue and the fact it has not been fixed but anything along these lines will result in X punishment by a GM.

:: A GM speak to each banned member about this incident. Get their account, which I would hope is a honest and upfront one.

:: On this occasion allow all players who have taken part in that open discussion, to receive a certain period of ban and then it be lifted. I would also express my view that no matter what this incident is, a special consideration should be sought as it is the festive period and yes, people turn to Soma for festive enjoyment. I say this not as a get out clause for the banned members to get 'let off" but due to the spirit of Soma and what this server stands for.

Of course the above should only apply to those banned players who satisfy the GM team in their convictions and response to this exploit.

Loads will say keep them banned. But I have only returned after a year break and know they are active players who contribute to making this gaming environment what it is today.

Just my views.

This video clearly shows that when slither turned up he came to pk and the healer wasnt even being used...

How can his ban be justified in any way?
