how do you tell?

[Heavy_Arsenal]

I'm american and legit. You need to stop stereotyping because there are legit americans such as myself orphen, and a friend of mine online who just made it level 200.

Im legit 100% and american

[Orphen]

The majority of dupers and hackers are American, sad to say. There may be..a few legitimates, not much credit to you on that, Ivan, but still, this guy has a point, I hardly see any UK or JP users using hacks, not counting the hackers who run around under the Japanese language setting.

Well, insane deals, as well as high % are a way to tell. With weapons that can be made, though, you should ask how they got or made the items, as well as what components they used to make the item.

[Neo1989]

ok thanks for all the help with that guys, (sorry if i upset anybody..Ivan) the obvious signs are stupidly one sided trades which admittedly I guessed and 100% bonus's. Ill just get rid of then this time and be more careful in future. Oh and Ivan I havn't had much online experiance as I only got online about a week ago.

[Omar]

How about getting rid of them? =\ And if that's the case you don't much experience online do you? Because there's a legit ship Called Deneb 9. Vega is for cheaters/hackers/illegits/etc.

Most Deneb 9 players have a clouded view of what legit is.

The true legits who were the ones that changed that block into the legit block (instead of just the IGN/Gamefaqs) are now over on Altair, though that place is now starting to get fake legits also.

[Serpent7]

Deneb 09 has too many illegit hasslers, (who like to come and swear in your face, so mature), and I get idiots pretending to act thick saying WATS LEGIT and demeanding a telepipe.

[Orphen]

Well, in time, there will be nowhere to hide, regardless of how many times you change the legitimate server, that wont exactly keep all of the cheaters and hackers from eventually invading. That and the fact that lots of the legits always chastise the people who give items to their new characters from higher levels.

[mimas]

Chastising people for transferring items? Sounds very stupid if you ask me, I mean ST intended for people to drop items and for other players to pick them up... What's so wrong with that??

Oh and Orphen, that "nowhere left to run" stuff is a load of rubbish. I think the illegits are perfectly happy swarming over the US ships like a massive colony of ants... I should know as they never seem to bother the EU ships at all!

[Orphen]

I know, but that is also because no one really goes to the EU ships, that, and the fact that if the new legit server came to the EU, the cheaters posing as legits will eventually come swarming in.

[Omar]

I know, but that is also because no one really goes to the EU ships, that, and the fact that if the new legit server came to the EU, the cheaters posing as legits will eventually come swarming in.

Some of the EU ships are pretty busy actually.

Spica 10 seems to be the EU answer to Vega nowadays though >.<

[Orphen]

That's just wonderful, soon the whole game will be swarming with cheaters and FSODers.
