POL NEWS : Accounts Banned + Report (Mar. 25)

I'm actually surprised they haven't added the ability to view party TP, alliance MP yet.
Kind of silly to grief people over that, but whatever.

Calling that "illegal" is the equivalent of outlawing abortions. It's just asinine.
 
I got banned.
 
oreally? What'd you get banned for?
 
The whole TParty debate is hilarious, because it's not an advantage when most people are unable to pull off a consistent SC with 4 lines of party spam to warn them, let alone infer when to WS based on reading your party member's TP.

Having a car is not a benefit if you're too stupid to find the gas pedal.
 
What I don't understand is why SE hasn't sent a Email to the Windower people asking if they wanted to help fix the SE windower. I'm 90% sure the unofficial windower makers would help for free. That way we all get our Tp/Mp/w/e plugins and a working SE windower(for the people who don't use plugins)

Hell, even get some people from FFXIdats.com and BG to help improve the game.

TParty is harmless. I don't see how that is any threat to the games mechanics and over all community.
 
It's a damn shame that some 3rd party tools are tightly wound with the words: "what's wrong with that", "everyone's doing it", "it's not cheating" with many people.


Guess I'm out of the cool club.
 
And I'm Westyle

Well, technically they could, if they wanted to. They could probably find evidence of that sort of thing within the game itself too, but that requires effort on SE's part... I'm just glad to see them make their stance on it explicitly known... who knows when they'll actually get around to taking action though.

To answer the bold, now. I got a 3 day suspension (a.k.a under review) for usin' an unaffiliated widower program. The rep. even warned me I'm still not out of the clear. She told me dependin' on how they want to view these "new targets" I could possibly be banned while my account is bein' reviewed. My account is 100% clean up until this point, unlike my past accounts, so I'll keep you updated so you can bonify over how severe they treat just the windower and its add-ons.

How did they find out you use windower?

What surprises me the most is that they don't ban people for using the other windower. They claim it's illegal but tolerate it, simply because it's impossible to have a solid proof. Just like they did tolerate fish bots in the past, chocobo bots, claim bots. So yes they don't care about windower. Not like TP/MP plugins give any advantage... Noone skillchains anyway.

On a side note, anyone noticed what they exactly did in Sea Serpent Grotto ? Did they change the path of mobs around the pond ? I'm interested because this could mean Coral fragment being a money maker for chocobo digging again.
 
I don't know why.. but I want to integrate that graph D:
 
We would like to remind players that as well as adversely affecting game balance, the use of third-party tools or cheats can also have consequences that are not immediately obvious, such as introducing damaging viruses,

Yes, we've known that... but

and comprising the security of private account details.

if they don't even follow this rule themselves, how can we really take seriously that they are going to ban those with TParty?

Much like my biological father, Antonio Banderez, I can only be in two scenes of this game.. or else it would just be TOO SEXY.

Probably the same way they find out people use hacks. Doesn't really matter to me how they did it so I didn't bother to ask.
