When will the new ToS actually be enforced?
Keshi replied to CookiePuss's topic in General Discussion Archive
thats why we got open-conflict district. even tho people dont play in there, maybe LO can think of something to get people in there as well? Honestly back then when i had to get people in APB i made new accounts and tried to teach them instead of playing to get 30kills per mission(which can get you to gold in exactly 2 to 3 missions)... ^.^ -
What about my old ticket?

I'm not banned. I don't think people who are banned should be unbanned. I'm trying to get into my account where I can't reset my password because google lost the email in those large batches a couple years ago. You'll be waiting until after they implement Battleeye so that you can get HWID banned after you try a script again. -
Actually, you said "More likely people with rather questionable bans or bans for something else than cheating" would be unbanned. I'm pretty certain that questionable and non-cheating bans do not compromise 'most' bans (especially when Matt was specific that most people who were banned for cheating will be unbanned). Unless he clarifies / rolls back a little, my interpretation is that a lot of people who were blatant are going to get their accounts back. Start picking names of the list lads, they're probably coming back: https://ffbans.org/search/R:200-255 HappyMandy Ashley Ccoca-Colaa Shall I keep going? Ray - sorry: TankBal will probably get his old accs back. I'm not complaining per se, it is what it is, but to say 'nah it'll only be questionable bans' is inaccurate in my opinion.

Would it be possible to allow blocked forum accounts to log into the old forums as well? I have a few very old private messages I'd love to get a copy of but the forum just kicks me back to the main page when I click Log In.

Start off by announcing to the player base you're gonna unban all accounts - hope no one reads to deep into the fact you're unbanning ALL CHEATERS, TROLLS, HARRASSMENT CASES, DOXING CASES, PERSONALLY BANNED ACCOUNTS FROM TIGGS/GMS REGARDING REAL LIFE HARASSMENT, CYBER BULLYING BANNED ACCOUNTS... BUT ITS OKAY GUYS WE GET TO PLAY GRIND THE GAME AGAIN. Are people really okay with this or are they just deleting every trace of people actually using their brains on the forum and questioning this nonsense? What happened to less than 1% of the playerbase actually use the forums? pathetic echo chamber
-
Ummm... they never said "all" accounts. Also, and Im honestly asking, what is the point you are trying to make?
-
So I assume, this "ripLO" guy has made an ADDITIONAL account, just for this crap, which would mean he is himself breaking TOS and then complaining about how they deal with such a thing? Ok.

I'm still one for the option of removing threats and just pitting everyone against everyone like the original game, it solves every problem down the board. The matchmaking system also takes more than just your threat into account, your gun, gun mods, how many stars you have, rank, and character mods are taken into account as well, which is obvious when you're in a semi empty district, and change your loadout and stuff while waiting for opposition. Edit: I should also point out that I believe the old system with Wins/Losses determining your threat was much better and made it much harder to gain and lose threat levels, the worst thing they ever did was make threat score based on the requests of elitist players that disliked having to use teamwork to gain gold. -
i gotta disagree. my guess is that,some people would just make new accounts to get into the newbie district and destroy them. you know... its the APB community were' talking about here i already did =P -
Excluding a country from purchasing a loot box shouldn't be a big problem, just add a filter to Armas to exclude some IP ranges that they use. The Netherlands is a bit more relaxed on loot box gambling. They still allow it as long as it can't be traded. But since Joker Box rewards can be traded, even when it's limited to Marketplace, it's violating the Dutch law. There are websites where the rewards can advertised and sold for real money. In my opinion, all Joker Box rewards should be locked and account wide. It could have a positive or negative effect. I would be more likely to buy Joker Boxes because I have a lot of characters and like exclusive stuff. At this point, everyone is at risk of getting their accounts compromised because of the trading. They're even selling ingame "space bucks" for a good amount. I am not completely against trading legendary weapons. But when someone is stealing all your stuff, it has to go through marketplace. They can set any price they want and complete the deal. However, if they set it at 1 "space buck" someone else is going to find it and buy it instantly without thinking and are likely to get their account banned. They need to be fast, either have 2 computers (or VM) or 2 persons. If they look at the market price, i would say set a minimum price for each legendary weapon that it can be sold for. I guess it would eliminate the scamming somewhat, but would still violate the Dutch law. It is entirely up to you whether you want to spend money or not on this game, but you're not willing to spend from your own hard earned cash, but you're fine with spending someone else hard earned cash?

Hello everyone, do you plan to avoid cheater coming back with an new account in 5mins? no matter if you ban if they are able to come back instantly with a fresh new account (the cheat still working for them, they only need another account)? I've experienced that issue so many times, the cheater clearly says me "i dont care of ban, i be right back in 5" why not ban materials? its far harder than just going on the website and create a new account and here we go again?

All BE bans start as temporary. LO then evaluates the bans using among other things, the info provided by other players. /Report also allows BE to more quickly catch cheaters by flagging their accounts for closer scrutiny. Once coupled with LOs in house server sided anti cheat, we should see even fewer cheaters than the few we had / have now. Not that I have any faith that it will stop people crying that cheaters are everywhere.

......... so obscure and assuming Little orbit has been banning though though...... It's already known they make junk accounts to test their cheats. However the only way to "stop cheating" has to do with the morality of those getting the cheats , not the ones the cheats are being used on whih in this case is Little Orbit and the APB community. I don't want to blame victims but blame the ones who do this. Technically it is your opinion that SPCT members are toxic. From a personal view I get more flak fro them than you do , yet amazingly enough I do not see them as toxic....hmmm go figure. Do they troll ,yes but they have tried to keep it in fun and honesty rather than cruelty and deceit. As for cheaters being mentioned by the SPCT team in you rpost here , I have only seen SPCT say that we have not seen many on Jericho server , which I agree to that since I have only personally witnessed one blatant cheater since BattleEye and they have not been back since then. *shrugs* That is an opinionated assumption based on no facts at all.... I do not believe you kept up with the news properly based off of this part of your post. While most talk lately was content updates we asked for and to delay the engine in order to do so , it was clearly mentioned on many occasions by Little Orbit that matchmaking would be worked on as well after the Engine Upgrade , which is nearly complete and already would of been if we were not desperate for something new after years of neglect under G1. Little Orbit has been very forthcoming on the tasks they are doing so I really see no validity to the claim of they are not . Little Orbit has already said they wish to hear from players and to voice concerns so *shrugs* go ahead.

Well thats kind of the thing. We dont know what a "lot" means. 1% (170+ false bans)? 10% (1,700+ false bans)? 50% (8,500+ false bans?) LO lacks even the support crew to handle 2,000 support tickets. Even after they started using a copy paste reply, they still have only gotten through hundreds since the acquisition. Matt himself said they were not prepared. There is absolutely no way they could go through 17,000+ bans individually to know who was or wasnt banned falsely. So I would guess that even Matt does not know the exact number of false bans. I just mean look at any game that runs BE. People still claim false ban almost all the time. Just like APB does now. I do not expect that to change once BE arrives. This was a good statement. I was both shocked and alarmed to hear it, as I think a lot of people were. But there is something you need to keep in mind... LO is a business, and no business can run at a loss forever. We can assume LO spent what was no small amount to acquire GamersFirst and all of it assets. They are running multiple development teams on multiple projects. They also appear to not have the money to hire GM's or forum moderation staff as they are going the volunteer route. But regardless, LO will only have so much runway left before they either start making money, or they are in some real trouble. APB allegedly hasnt made a profit in over 2 years, and our player count is abysmal. LO will need to boost player count and of course player spending dramatically, and quickly. Can you think of a better and or cheaper way to do that than by unbanning 17,000+ player accounts? Im not saying Mr. Scott was in any way misleading in his statements. In fact everything he said is undoubtedly true. But this is not his first rodeo. You can be sure he chose each of his words very carefully. And I think some of us players are reading more into those words than he originally intended out of our desperation to feel some hope for APB. I play APB daily, anywhere from 4 to 12 hours. I've spent thousands and thousands of dollars on this game. Ive given away tens of millions of dollars in game to try to convince new players stay long enough to get the hang of our game. I want, just like all of you, for APB to succeed. I also care about the players. I know how much APB means to some of us, and I know how devastating it will be if LO doesnt pull through, if APB finally dies. Im simply trying to keep everyone's feet on the ground for now. To keep us focused. To make sure we all hold LO accountable for what theyve promised, for what theyve done, and for what they will do. I apologize if Im upsetting anyone, Im not trying to.

Then they must have changed the character/account Bound stuff. Because that's one reason I never got Fed Carriers.

I would love to be proven wrong, but the devs have had ample time and money to do something, but so far all I can recall is the out of bounds zones, which were a very good addition to the game, and prevented 70% of the exploits. But they stopped doing seasonal events, like easter I heard, which is a huge mistake because the holiday events draw everyone back to the game to get the new / rare content. I'm sorry if I seem rude and obnoxious but I love this game and it's been neglected.

Tigrix replied to MattScott's topic in General Discussion Archive
Awesome news, really really good job! I hope next step will be, that you guys can figure out a way of making it more troublesome to re-create a fresh account for a player who has received a ban. -

PHM replied to MattScott's topic in General Discussion Archive
Will you remove those "farmed" FFAs from their accounts? We talking about players who made multiple accounts (some players with over 50) to get as many as possible guns and if they now come back this will definitely destroy the market prices.. not to forget players who spent their hard earned money on those g1c boxes.. -

lmao agreed. I could give less of a molecular shit about money and JT's because I GET MY ACCOUNT BACKK!!!!!!! My credit card is itching to drop a hundo on armas for LO -
there was a thread/post not too long ago regarding unmerged names (pre server merge) possibly being wiped. not sure if anything will come of it though. to be honest it's a tough one to call just deleting peoples names, especially if they have spent money on the account. inactive or not does not really matter. fact is it belongs to someone.
