They definitely didn't ban everyone who duped.

Appears to be under 50% of the dupers.


Yeah but the ones who still have there stuff will probably take years to unload it so as not to get noticed.
The second they get noticed they might get banned then.
Kind of like the idiot linking and trading thousands of red scales last night in eveninstar. That's just asking for trouble.

Turbine did this like they do everything, half-assed. They started with a very few and got distracted. I expect this to be the end of it.

Banning someone three weeks from now makes no sense, their items will be all mixed up with items from quests and trades and other such.

Turbine's window of opportunity is passing quickly

This is the closest to what I have seen based on Guild, Alliance, Chat etc.  I would guess less then 10%.

Not sure how many they got now but if they are really going to delete items with extreme prejudice on all the currently banned accounts then there is finally a risk when using exploits.
So even if they don't manage to punish every exploiter this time some players are probably going to be afraid they might belong to the ones who get punished next time.

If they don't delete the posts in the official forum next week when people start to complain how bad they got fucked by turbine it should have a decent impact on the amount of players who are going to use such an exploit.

But who knows... maybe they just take their time and continue investigations until christmas. One week investigations/bans and one week clearing the inventory of the banned accounts. Then starting over with investigations.

At least from my point of view 10% chance to lose more than I got from using an exploit is a risk I wouldn't take. But this opinion is probably a minority in the vault. Cheesy

Someone who had a 7 day ban is back in game and they got to keep all there 500+ stacks.
It's in one of the threads around here somewhere.

As long as the deletions were harsh enough anyway.

Of about a dozen people I know for a fact duped (and some in huge, huge quantities) I am the only one I know who has gotten a suspension.

Completely random, IMO.

I wonder if the one with a 7 day ban was really banned for duping. Because Tolera said that they would ban at least 14 days. So either he was lucky to be one of the first players who got banned before they did get mad. Or was he just lucky to get banned before they discussed how to deal with the exploiters this time?

So we probably have to wait until one of the players is back where Turbine logged into the account while they were banned to know exactly how they dealt with exploiters this time.

Turbine's only consistency is inconsistency.

afaik there was one on sarlona being banned for 5 days only for giving out mats for free in the tavern and publically announcing it but he was banned before the "official" banning wave started.

And just cuz Tolero said smth, it must not be true. could be as well that she just said a number of days to relax the mad lawful heroes on the ddo forums. :p

They are still in an investigation period. I am sure bans will pick up shortly. As for my FL of well over a hundred they are all still there and still kicking.
  

IF at first you do not succeed, kill all the witnesses.
