So your saying its easier to get in spitting distance of a person than spamming a 6m radius explosion weapon that does 150 dmg from 30m?

At the end of the day, people can call it whatever they want. But using game mechanics in your favor is just smart. Did you buy a whole load of charged snipers or proto turrets before the price went up....yes? Cause that's exploiting game mechanics all the same.

Eon is currently abusing the mechanics of PC....which is what sparked this war. They are smart for doing so.

So the fact that it glitches the animation and allows you to use melee again before you should be able to means nothing right??

IDk... seems like a glitch to me

Go for it and see how many of your own players get banned, you have 3 known abusers of it in TP, you would lose your 3 to our 1. Not so good at math are you SoTa?

Doesn't matter still: you think only EoN. would all submit tickets against one individual, where as the Dust community itself (as we can see from this thread) even knows of the the other 3 abusers in TP. Even if continuing to use an exploit gets you banned, I understand Annie and Calamity haven't been on in a while so therefore the continuing occurrence of this known exploit can't be justified in a forward manner, you still have FiddleStaxp that utilizes it also, and continues to use it. Not my fault he doesn't spec into Melee mods and do it himself more effectively.

Can you just answer this one question, because I'm curious as to your reasoning...
You say the so called melee exploit ruined so many hacks... When you're hacking, and someone runs up behind you and punches you to death, how exactly are you any more dead and the hack any more interrupted than if that person had delivered a shotgun blast to the back of your head at point blank?

http://dust514.com/eula/

Care to explain where exactly in here it says no exploiting?
- This game has had a ton of glitches, exploits, whatever you want to call them. Just funny now to see EoN. so butthurt about this one. And if you really want to get technical with it SoTa, everyone exploits all the time after every reload by cancelling the animation. You go to reload, your reload is 80% done and sprint, boom! Your reloaded. Everyone does this to and everyone in the Dust community has ongoing occurrences of this, but nobody cries about that? Just lol.
- Still don't see it in here though, especially since this game is ever developing, and I can't honestly say I know about a sniper 'exploit'.

Edit: Section 5 & 6 to help you out SoTa, nothing there.

CCP becomes aware of gameplay, chat or player activity under your Account that is, in CCP's discretion, inappropriate, offensive, or in violation of the rules of conduct. CCP may, but is not obligated to, provide notice of termination via electronic mail, or any other means reasonably calculated to reach you.

Ok, so Rules of Conduct now, wheres that at? Because you literally just coughed up a response that only pertains to rules of conduct, which clearly in Section 6 of the EULA is titled Conduct which says this:


You may not take any action that imposes an unreasonable or disproportionately large load on the System.
You may not use your own or third-party software to modify any content appearing within the Game environment or change how the Game is played.
You may not use your own or any third-party software, macros or other stored rapid keystrokes or other patterns of play that facilitate acquisition of items, currency, objects, character attributes, rank or status at an accelerated rate when compared with ordinary Game play. You may not rewrite or modify the user interface or otherwise manipulate data in any way to acquire items, currency, objects, character attributes or beneficial actions not actually acquired or achieved in the Game.
You may not use the Software, or any information accessible through the System, to bypass the System login architecture or create or provide any other means through which the System may be accessed and/or the Game may be played by others, as, for example, through server emulators.
You may not submit any content to any chat room or other public forum within the Game that is harassing, abusive, threatening, harmful, obscene, libellous or defamatory, encourages conduct that could constitute a criminal offense or give rise to civil liabilities, or is unlawful in any other way, including without limitation the submission of content that infringes on a third-partyGÇÖs intellectual property rights.

Still nothing.

I'm not taking it seriously, just seems I can bring up more valid points under CCP's own EULA than you can. You have no proof, and I have been banned multiple times from Microsoft, but never on PC games or any game like this. I'm not here to defend anybody, just proving that your talking out of pure spite at this point because it's SoTa, the troll of what was IE is now seeking sovereignty in TP now when things got rough for yourself. So being realistic about things, it's normal a troll like yourself try to do everything in his power to bring a point across but provide nothing for it.

I understand still it's under CCP's discretion, but maybe more people should QQ about it and get it resolved, but instead try to play a hard ass and get players banned because the victim is nothing more than a troll in my eyes. As zBroadway had said it earlier, CCP doesn't have your pensions or 401k.

GG's SoTa

Well so long as we are on the subject of Eon and cheats...

Here is a thread about a real cheat using a real exploit who is in EoN:

https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=1061834

Melee attacks are an exploit that needs reporting?

when this crap is going on?

really?

No not in agreement. Melee might be a tad OP but it is not an exploit....i am pretty sure the player could have maxed out his levels in shotgun instead of melee and did the same damn thing....and if not then shotgun needs a buff when it is that close of range. A zero range plasma blast should be a one shot kill regardless of what shields and armor you wear.

Also i disagree with the high health crap. It is only some players who have high health. So when someone like me who runs a toon with very little SP spent in nearly all militia gear hears someone like you whining his high level proto build being one shot all i can do is /facepalm.

If you really wanna play SoTa here you go:

Suspension of Account
- Without limiting CCP's rights or remedies, CCP may immediately and without notice discontinue or suspend access to the System through your Account, and any and all other Accounts that share the name, phone number, e-mail address, internet protocol address or credit card number with the discontinued or suspended Account, in the event of (i) a breach of the EULA (including the rules of conduct) by you or any user under your Account; or (ii) unauthorized access to the System or use of the Game by you or any user under your Account.


Let's start with Suspension of accounts sharing the same IP Address which essentially could be all your alts you have in games or forums when you breach the EULA (Including rules of conduct)
- Alright so it's obvious your main account of "SoTa PoP" has been banned from the forums on multiple occasions. It's not rocket science, you can make alternate PSN's or even use the same PSN if you want to make other characters as described here:
- You may establish only one (1) Account for each copy of the Software licensed. However, an Account will be permitted to have multiple characters stored within the Account.

Moving forward: You probably got banned for one of these reasons as listed:
- Threaten, harass, "stalk", abuse, slander, defame or otherwise violate the legal rights (such as rights of privacy and publicity) of others;
- Publish, distribute or disseminate any inappropriate, profane, vulgar, defamatory, infringing, obscene, tortuous, indecent, unlawful, immoral or otherwise objectionable material or information;

So there's the obvious breach in rules of conduct, moving forward since this is only pertinent to Terms of Use for the site

If we go further into the EULA, we notice from the below statement that further explains about rules of conduct incorporating a public forum aspect:
- You may not submit any content to any chat room or other public forum within the Game that is harassing, abusive, threatening, harmful, obscene, libellous or defamatory, encourages conduct that could constitute a criminal offense or give rise to civil liabilities, or is unlawful in any other way, including without limitation the submission of content that infringes on a third-partyGÇÖs intellectual property rights.

So now if you are catching my drift, and for those of you that haven't I will break it down again.
- SoTa PoP is eligible for a ban or termination as well as follows:
- - SoTa PoP has and is currently banned on the forums if I am not mistaken, well in order to be banned on the forums, as listed above you must essentially harass someone or in his case troll someone to hard, lol.
- - - So looking at the EULA, this also goes to further explicate the forbidden use of harassing in chat rooms or public forums, obviously "forums.dust514.com" is rationalized as a public forum, this in turn could promote a termination of SoTa PoP's real account from Dust as well seeing how the new "SoTah Pawp" is surely using the same IP address which corresponds to SoTa PoP's real character, and since one of these 'characters' has breached the EULA already whether on the same 'account' or not, breaking the EULA terms still rationalizes for SoTa PoP to be banned as well along with all of his characters sharing the same IP.

And this post from a DEV shows in order to be eligible to post on the forums, you must have played at least 10 minutes of Dust, which means that the EULA would of had to of been accepted in order to play Dust. With the obvious hiccup in denying the EULA after furthermore accepting it, SoTa PoP along with any other 'character' or 'account' he may hold could be banned for obvious reasons.

Your welcome.

But when Ari was on our side originally in NF, you didn't care, lols!

._____. It just a game, maaaan!!! FF14!!! *HIGH 5*

There is no weakness SoTa, your cry for 'weakness' is invalid.

I simply just showed the whole Dust community that you yourself are eligible for termination if you really want to start being a little girl about things. When Arirana was playing for you and me, you didn't care what he did, but now your getting your butt handed to you over Ari's elbow you start to cry about it. How about this then seeing how really there isn't one ideology present or happy yet, he simply beats up TP with a shotgun and after we do that and whoop TP's grin off their face, he continues to use it to show you he doesn't have to rely on it.

Easy enough.

But yet you say nothing about still Ari picking up a shotgun you just keep crying about his elbow to your face, lol.

As stated previously, next time you see Arirana, I will make sure he has a shotgun in his hand.

Your a nerd too lol..its funny how you guys keep track of your record versus us..i mean, you guys have probably had well over 300 PC matches yet you remember the EXACT amount of wars you played against us..lol you keep track in your dust 514 diary? lol. And your right, we will never have 40 districts for a few reasons: We dont give a ****..the domination of Molden Heath doesnt happen to be one of our short term or long term life goals. And to be honest none of us have time to sit around all day and defend 40 districts lol. Most of us have jobs and more importantly...social lives/friends. I mean its one thing to stay in on a friday or saturday night every now and then because you had a long week at work or have a big test on monday to study for...but i can almost guarantee that TP will be on all weekend *pinches nose closed* protecting all 40 districts on Molden heath and fighting back the waves of attacks against the EoN alliance.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA TRYING TO JUSTIFY MELEE GLITCHING?


LMFAO

it's hilarious how your old corp, hellstorm, went from "WE ARE SO HONORABLE, WE WILL NOT CORP BATTLE ANY FORUM TROLLS" to "LOL I STEAL UR ENTIRE CORP WALLET AND GOOD PLAYERS" to "LOL GLITCHING IS OKAY ITS WORKING AS INTENDED"

obi-wan dropping that TRUTH. but really though, you and marauder need to stop whooping my ass in PC, making me look bad :(

Sad to still you posting on an alt cause your main is still banned from previous notes. Guess we all won't learn to quickly though.

awww r the little noobs angry at each other?....
