Second day online....and an FSOD x_X

[Omar]

Is it harming gameplay?
Is it preventing fellow teammates from getting exp?
Is it FSODing/Corrupting/etc. people?
Is it ruining any fun?
Is it killing you?
Is it Killing me?
Is it noticable?
Is it harmful?

...Point Made =\

Sorry, but stacking is certainly cheating. You are doing something that the game makers didn't want you to.

The item limits are there to add challenge to the game, with some quests removing the ability to pipe back so you are forced to use your items wisely.

It is noticeable and harms gameplay when it removes the challenge for the team in some cases. Of course it is not as bad as other forms of cheating, but it is still clearly cheating.

It worries me that you can't see that =/

I hear from alot of people that it also prevents finding rares.

I hear lots of things from lots of people. Most of these people are idiots though, so should be ignored. Nothing you do on Ep1&2 prevents rares from dropping as ST didn't put such a system on the disc and cannot patch the game. They can only alter drop rates in new quests or by bringing out a new disc. (Part of the reason for releasing PSO Plus was to remove the duping lady glitch and recognising some hacked items and stopping rares from dropping when they are used)
If some kid on PSO tells you otherwise though, then feel free to believe their claims

man i hate these topics they are all sad an stupid

Did I sound too harsh? >_>;

[Ivan]

I don't care. I have one think to say. Opinions are like butt holes; everyone has one and they all stink. If I cheat, I guess I cheat. If you hate me; I don't care. I'm not saying I want enemies because I already have many. But if you're gonna be so dumb about it then fine.

Omar I'm not blind I'm quite aware of it. However some limits are meant to be broken. It's a simple convience for us mag feeders. If you're going to be stupid and be like, "Don't the the stacker heal me, I'd rather stay dead." I seriously think you need to get a grip. It's not hacking or nearly anything as bad as the other cheats.

Anyone who wishes to argue with me further confront me on msn/yahoo/aim.

Back to topic now please.

Omar I'm not blind I'm quite aware of it. However some limits are meant to be broken.

You make your point in public, then expect us to pursue something that you started, but in private? That is cowardly.

Do not refer to members as being dumb unless that is actually the case. That is generally regarded as flaming

If you hate me; I don't care.

Then why bother posting something about no longer being a BOM member? You were never actually thrown out of BOM. You just chose to leave because of the response your cheating got from the other members who were online at the time.

However some limits are meant to be broken.

Making such general statements does nothing to back up what you are saying Ivan. A person who uses a hacked mag could say the exact same thing.

It's a simple convience for us mag feeders.

I am also a mag feeder, yet do not need to do such a thing. If it were just something you did when mag feeding then it wouldn't be as bad, but you do it in games also, so clearly it is not just for mag feeding.

If you're going to be stupid and be like, "Don't the the stacker heal me, I'd rather stay dead." I seriously think you need to get a grip.

I am in no way being stupid by saying I don't want to play with cheaters. The point I was making was quite clear. I think it is you who needs to get a grip on other people's opinions and respect what they think. You were one of the people who used to denounce all forms of cheating and drone on about how bad all hackers/cheaters were and yet now you are a cheater in the eyes of most respected legits here. (regardless of my opinion of Orphen's character, he is a respected legit player)

If you really want to stay on topic, then edit out your flames/argument and just tell us to get back on topic. If you want to then carry it on in private, then do so without public posts.

For once I fully and wholeheartedly agree with Omar. Stacking is an obvious cheat for the reasons that Omar listed. It's breaking what the game was meant to do, that is the exact definition of cheating. A mod is supposed to be a role model Ivan, yet you openly claim to cheat...that's not good man. What happened to your dedication, your strong will to stay legit, or was it never really there to begin with...

[Orphen]

I have strong views against cheating myself, I am not saying this in any ofense to you, but I would like to state my views. People who do not play the game by the rules ruin the game for everyone. Limits are not made to be broken, otherwise they wouldn't exist in the first place (At least in this case, read the sega end user agreement). By cheating, you have the potential to harm someone, and ruin the game for them, someone may come into a game, realize you are a cheater, and just leave the game. Think of it as walking around swinging a knife through the air outside. You may not hurt someone, but the truth is, you do have the great potential to do so. Regardless of the majority of legits being jackasses, being so would keep you from ruining the game for other people. It may not lead to you getting harmed, but it may affect people around you. I am completely against cheating for this reason, and the fact that I dont feel I need to cheat to enjoy this game. Think about it, Ivan. I am telling you this not with any hostility towards you, but more so to try to help you get on the right track.

Well, that is my rant for the day.

[Ivan]

Whatever; I give.

[Lionheart]

good, I'm glad to see that our naggings actually did something...
