This seems to be the million dollar question.

gee imagine if you got banned for a week and thought sweet i get a weeks break to come back to all my 24 or so toons at the plat cap, all the reds,lds, and scrolls I brought just waiting for me.......... to find most of your stuff gone? Apparently some guy got his huge bag bugged by the crates. If I was a sadistic asshole working at turbine I would make an exploit like this but turn it into some sort of trap where anyone rushing to use it would just end up losing everything, geez that would be really terrible and evil but I could see the irony in that.

I have received no email or official word from turbine about my banning.   As a few people seem interested, I will be happy to share Turbine's explanation if and when I receive it.

As Far as I am concerned, I deserved what I got.

it was me that got my gargantuan bag vanished and i wasn't exploiting with the crates  i was doing it the hard way apparently i never know about these things till too late.

i was running the kobold quest and lots of others for 4-5 hours and had all my slots full of those crates so i went to the tavern and opened them all it pushed my bag out somewhere.

Pisses me of and makes me wish i did exploit the chests i lost everything i had 200+ raid tokens hundreds of scrolls/seals/shards all my gs ing waiting on customer service to tell me to fuck off they can't fix it before i explode.

Well, I'm not responsible for anything this time around.  But I'm pretty sure that I've at least helped cause severe server issues before.

When I was killing never ending spawns in DQ1 last year renown farming, if I was killing them with firewalls, everything was okay.  If I started adding in cloudkills on top of that, people started dropping like flies all over the server.



Well, hon, it helped that you weren't the only caster doing that very thing. That was a fun week...

So this is the big bad thing that I've been hearing about. Jeebus. Glad I'm not playing atm, cuz this has a legitimate Maban all over it. Sad

Although, OP...weaksauce. If you're going to do something that could be even potentially considered ballsy, do some from your real account. Way more bang for your buck, in the end.

Had a couple of guildies get a banned message and they were back on within an hour.  The only things missing were the chests from the bank.

In case you don't know it there is a current exploit going on right now.

Have you been wondering why there is nothing on the AH? Why LDS went from 295-325kpp to 1.5million in a couple days? Why there is NO major pots, eberron dragonshards, no ingredients at all on the AH.

I blame Overeem for this. He was the first, I know it for a fact. He has taken me, many friends & guildies on runs down to the spider chest in Dr Rushmore's mansion to get the level 20 chest. I know for a fact he has looted over 10 +3 tomes (unbound, seen the links). Hundreds of major pots, eberron dragonshard, etc. His words: "I don't care if I get banned for a few days, a week, or even a month, which is the longest ban they give out apparently. I will be the richest person on the server I have stacks of plus +3s, pages of majors and bags of ingredents saved up, so who cares, I'll be back, and rich" I know you have started to move loot to bankers and free accounts.

Frankly if anyone deserves a perma ban it's you. I admit, you told me, and I tried it (once, really), it works. But OMG, aren't you worried about your toons? You have multiTRs going (as do I, which is why I refuse to do it). Whatever, it pisses me off that it was YOU who started all this crap, I actually enjoyed running with you, all those epics gone to waste. I bought +3 tomes in the DDO store (almost $50 for me), now I feel my money has been wasted cause you looted dozens in a couple days. Just great.

Here is the exploit for looting items:
1. put the supply chest in your bank
2. double click it
3. the chest loots, moves to your inventory
4. repeat
do it this way for loot/items

Here is the exploit for looting gold
1. put the supply chest in your bank
2. fill your inventory totally full with anything
3. double click the chest, you only get gold
4. repeat

Frankly I hope nobody does this, and if you do, you deserve to get perma banned. It's not right, not fair to the new players who need to buy stuff off the AH. The economy has been ruined for at least a year cause of this.


So glad I quit this game.  I get the feeling I would have stayed on longer, but I felt Argo was way ahead of the curve in terms of turning into a shithole.

This thread certainly is full of temptation. Minor risk for huge gains in-game, why would I not take advantage? Then I remember two things:

1. People on the internet lie. "Guess who just got banned for a month and lost all their loot?" is not the next post I want to make.

2. Part of the fun of DDO is getting rare loot then linking it to fellow guildies who do not have said rare loot. It's no fun to go around linking things if everyone already has all the things.

These people shouldn't be banned, they should just change all the +3 tomes acquired this way to -3 tomes instead and make them apply "correctly" to anyone who already used one.

This would be the most epic prank ever.  It's the kind of thing I could tell my grandchildren about and still bust out laughing.   Grin

Hey, that explains why I never saw you on before I  dropped The Ancients. 

I haven't played much at all - despite joining OMGBIZZY.  I log in, think of what I need to do/farm, then logout.  Yup, thats my day in ddo.  I haven't even logged into argo for three weeks.

Fuck me! Why did you throw this all on Overeem when you had the perfect opportunity to blame The House of mangar?

Fucking tard. You could have made the server a better place and been loved by all. instead you choose some  nerdy ass named after a human clam on steroids to blame..

WTF man? Get a grip and wake the fuck up. When in doubt blame The house of fucking mangar!
