Not an Exploit Question

Not an exploit question in the sense that intentionally using a flaw or a bug would give me any advantage, but...

Does anyone know if there is a way to intentionally cause a dead LFM?  The kind of dead LFM that persists until a maintenance reboot?

While in quest with an open LFM, sit with your PC on your lap with both feet in at least 8 inches of water. Make sure you are physically restrained to a chair which cannot be easily tipped over. Apply 220V 60A of AC current directly to the water.

As an added benefit, you won't be able to send moronic PMs anymore either.

If this doesn't work, PM Epoch about the Willie Pete method.

One thing for everyone who is a "skeptic" on this issue: Insurance companies are basing their underwriting on the assumption that it is real. They are refusing to write policies on homes that are likely to be in danger from rising seas 20 years from now, even though the resale rate of the homes is so high that they could keep writing policies for another 10 years and still not have to pay out on 1 policy in 5, but that would be irresponsible. Unethical, as well, but that's never stopped anyone before.

It is fairly natural to assume that the fair price for the pot is the fair value of the resources I needed to make the pot plus the fair value of my labor.

I believe it persists until the toon who caused it logs back in.

Really?  Interesting, I was under the impression that it stayed until the next reboot. 


Why would I want to "ruin" the game I play?  How would causing a dead LFM ruin it?  It wouldn't interfere with game play in any way. Whatever causes it needs to get fixed.

If people started abusing it to leave persistent messages up, it could only do good by encouraging them to fix it.

I would have thought you people here would see potential for using dead LFMs as a method to protest Tubine bullshit. 

Instead you just fall back on childish name calling, and for what reason?  I guess the real forums aren't missing much if people like you two are banned.

What are you an activist now? Would it make you happy if I wrote TURK 182 in the fucking sky? You should draw attention to euthanasia.

The longer it takes them to fix it, the longer we can use it.

Activist? Hah.  For you though, I'd promote post-term abortions.

Seriously, though, is it activism to bitch at the people who sell you a product until you get a result?  It's not like Turbine is the government.  The army of sock puppet acct's here has nothing to do with having a voice?

Alright, calm your tits.
It took 3 days of solid complaining/protesting in the marketplace and a couple of news sites picking up on it for that plan with comms of valour to get changed, and even that was a token gesture.
How on earth do you think spamming the lfm channel is going to be anything more than pissing in the wind?

I approve of your abortion stance you just need to work on self identifying. Get dressed. I will be by in 15 minutes to pick you up to take you off to the "fixer shack" surrounded by all the people holding portable LFM signs. Plz say a final goodbye to your hamster and virginity. I'm sure the nurses will be comforting to you. They look unwanted children in the face everyday and I am sure they will recognize the sadness in your eyes.

You sir are a genius and to think I almost dropped you off at the abortion mill. I am sure people will be moved and everything will be fixed overnight. Nothing could be more effective than a political statement on the LFM boards posted between "Join My Shitty Level 12 Guild" and "Can I Haz Your Ship Altar to Craft." Let's call it "The Fucktard Spring."

The main point here, is that you're not reaching Turbine with that type of protest.  You're just (potentially) irritating the existing playerbase.

they will probably congratulate themselves on how long they "kept it going" never able to see that it could have easily managed to keep itself going for far longer if they had just meddled far less drastically and with some semblance of an actual gameplan.

The only "reaching" you ever got was a reach around from your boyfriend after he made happy in your bum bum.

Badger, check the archives around April 2012 I believe.
Some drama with persistent ghost LFMs and hate messages. Although I thought after that event Turbine fixed them, but I guess the ghosts have not been busted.
