i am one of the smugglers falsely accused.
all im going to say that in light of the conspiracy theory, i might push to sue sony

u can see my full story if u want at swgwarcy, under general discussion, under "I need yur help"
(if u cant find the site do a google search on "swg warcry"- it should be right there)

In a move the rivals the JFK assassination, SWG Developers would have you believe that 4 to 5 Dozen Smugglers were using an exploit. Developers called them cheaters, had their accounts banned then they hide behind a force field in which they don’t have to show any accountability or answer any inquires.

I heard from a worker on the inside, SWG databases were a bit corrupted. Identical item ‘types’ were mixed with identical items; If a smuggler sliced 5 Vibro Knucklers; SWG was reporting that a Vibro Knuckler was sliced 5 times. There is a big difference between the two. In the end, someone on the SWG Development team made a rash decision without examining the problem and as a result multiple servers lost innocent Smuggler players.

Over 45 people reported the same story, SWG never produced any God-like armor or weapons and will not admit they messed up. When the error was reported to SWG, they swept it under the rug; It was easier then admitting to a mistake and apologizing to fifty people.

We all pretty much know what is and isn't an Exploit so "Bleed Shot Guy".. please log off and take a break.. your getting way too worked up about this.

The only thing I am worried about is that after a couple weeks they will let these people they banned back on. They have pretty much had that "Policy" in the past too.. Ban someone only to unban then in 30days or less. A lot of them are the repeat offenders.. I know of one person who flattly will tell you that he has been banned twice and after 30 days his account is "Unlocked" so he can just log back on and do what he wants till he is caught again.

Many of them do it on purpose too, having Online forums that they share their Exploits and get paid to post valid exploits.

It's pretty rough being a good player and getting called a cheat when you best them, because everyone sees others cheating, or even worse being beat'n time and time again becuase people feel like they can cheat too if "Everyone else is doing it"

At any rate.. Fix the GCW, PERMA-BAN the Exploiters, and Let the Trash Talking and Drama go.. its a game.

Is there a difference between tactics and exploits to SONY?

example: Bleed shoting/hitting a beastie then running like a coward to your house porch and watching it bleed to 1hp, the killing it at your leisure... ive been told ingame by players thats an exploit.

I call it a tactic. Whats the difference between that and feighning death after bleeding somthing? Are smugglers who use their abilities exploiters too?

Is sony gonna ban me for clearing pickets out of my front yard?

If they do the can eat gnort poo.
sides... warhamer online is gonna rock the socks off this game.

I cant access that page here at work. What were the exploits? who was caught? what server? if they even said.
