Like someone said before some of the armbraces dulpers got there accounts back so is this a fair punishinment? i think not

Also the Heart of the Shiverpeaks exploit where you could just run to the chest or the Duncan one.

i'm still very surprised at the number of people in this thread 191 still rising i guess.. but like saopaulo said none of you can help us.. through i would like to know who are the 117.. i think very soon there will be a legend the 117 that never came back killed by the hands of Mallyx..lolz but this will have a impact on the selling of GW games i think afterall the fact does not change that some were ban without knowing it was a bug and were still ban, frankly speaking i'm already telling my friends not to play it . Well in anycase no GW means CABAL SEA for me !!!

i dont mind you calling me stupid but i didnt knew the outpost was a bug/hack there was any word that says bug or anything ,until the day before yesterday when my account was ban and i came here to read .i have no solid evidence to back up my story but i believe Anet will give me a fair answer(hopefully)but if it doesnt i will just go play CabalSea. |

I would like to settle a question that some have raised. Was a hack involved in this exploit? Yes. If it "wasn't an exploit," or "was a simple ferrying maneuver," then perhaps one of you innocent travelers can explain that to me via PM? For the way I understand it, and I've just spent time with the content programming team to confirm, you get to the outpost by hacking the client, or by using the exploit gained through the client hack. I just watched a few programmers use every trick in the book, including Guild Halls and other things, to try to end up at that hidden outpost (as a few players have claimed they did.) And the programmers could not make it happen.
You didn't get to the outpost from a crash, a server burp, a roll-back, a glitch with the Guild Hall, or a sacrifice to Grenth. So my point is, some of the banned players may not have done the actual hacking, but they certainly used the exploit that resulted from the hack, and they certainly were able to profit from it.
As someone on the team said, "They get a ferry -- usually having being told such access is 'top secret' and after being sworn to secrecy. They end up in a outpost that doesn't show on their map, that they've never seen before (even though they completed the mission), and that contains no NPCs. At some point, they have to realize that something isn't right, particularly since they've completed the mission and they know that getting the end reward involves doing a lot more than simply taking out Mallyx."
I am not going to speak in absolutes. But I am not going to see you lied to, either. If someone can disprove this, please let me know, because all of us believe this to be 100% true: Everything logical, and everything we've been able to establish points out that those who used the exploit benefited, directly or indirectly, from a game hack. And both exploits and hacks are against the User Agreement. Isn't it really that simple?

come on ANET you ban these 117 people so quickly but you leave those Bergan Hot Spring bots farming undead, Altrumn Ruins bots farming wardens, Maatu Keep bots farming those funny looking things, Elona Reach bots farming minotours, Droks bots farming trolls.

Thats the number wich was banned wich was made up for a part of an excuse so it doesnt look alot of people, but the source is 1 guy so everything else except that one is beeing injustised thats whats this thread is about, people trying to proof that they went for an easy farm but did not know it was that many impact.
Fact: most of the players had more then 5k hour ingame time, as probably a dedicated player yourself you know you wont do something wich gets you banned on an account wich got that much hours played.
Fact: if it would last few more hours more then 10.000 people would have done it.
Fact: everyone except for the one who started this 3rd party exploid wich is confirmed is injustished.
Fact: they took the easy way out by just banning everyone involved.
Fact: lots of angy people cause of injustice.
And if you really want to put down these people, wonder if you would have taking a party invite aswell if they offered you to go kill mallyx. How could you know? everyone was doing it.
The relationship officiers in this thread are showing the admin point of view wich is very understanable , the banned people are showing the community side of view also understanable.
So before you post please read the comments of the people really involved and ask yourself why would a person with 10k hours risking to get his account banned. Trust me its not the mony.

Can you also provide us with assurances that even the 2nd, 3rd and however many more accounts some of these people have will follow the same path as their primary account and get banned too?
Its galling to see them come back on here and crow how they have survived this and have merely moved to their Alts. The guy from GANK springs to mind, not only does he admit to having an Alt in an illegal location he clearly believes he has a right to continue shafting the game.
And can you provide any info on the minis and ultra rare equipment that has been removed from the game as a result of this recent aggro? Are we likely to see ANY of it again or are these things truly lost once and for all? To some of us these details are important as they are the things we are still aiming for

I am deeply sorry for what i said and i really hope you will keep this level of relationships up with us.
I also want to say that there is still a certain someone about in the Game who owns a very very large Luxon alliance on his 2nd account. Just thought youd like to know :P
Thanks alot Gaile

Its funny how all of the 117 players have no problem with just straight up lying.
You all knew it wasn't right. You all know something was wrong, you all know people get caught doing exploits....but you still did it.
Own up to it and take your lessons learned to the next game you play, play by the rules the rest of us have to play by.
good riddance.

I see your reasons for banning the client hackers, but not your reasons for banning people making use of it as an 'In game exploit', and most likely without realising themselves what it was at first.
Did you ban people that exploited HM urgoz warren to farm the vampires for loads of golds? Or the people that exploited guild hall travel from pre searing? No you didnt, in the same way, it is extremely unjust to ban someone that didnt touch their client or do any hacking themselves, but were ferried to the exploit in game by someone else that had.
Hope that makes sense since you seem to have a serious lack of understandstanding players concerns these days.

Sooooooooooooo many self righteous people in GW!
It truly saddens me to see so many holier than thou's in this community, as if they are better than the next person.
Justice can serve no man fairly without Humility.
Whether you think you would have used the exploit or not, do you really feel the need to procalim yourself judge and jury without knowing all the facts?
Can you ever know all the facts? I think not.
"But Gaile says blah blah blah"
Ya, ok, and so it's gospel?
This is why PUG's are dying ... because there are too many damn self righteous people in this community who care nothing for anyone or anything but themselves and what people think of them.
Sad ...
As i said in another post, i dont know any of the Banned people, and im not one of em ... but i still think the Perma Ban is unfair.
You want to Ban em for a month to make a point? fine.
You want to retract their items to make a point? fine.
But to take away something from them they paid real money for? Nonsense.
Playing Guild Wars is not a PRIVELGE to the players. They paid for it in cash.
Playing Guild Wars is a GIFT to Anet. They paid someones salary.
Let's not forget that.

Thanks gaile,
So far most people seeing its just a ferrying thing and a fun thing to do that night, just another day in guildwars. Only everything got blewn up.
Imagine comming online joining a cool farm, with no idea it was created using an exploit etc. Just what hit most guys.
I know old quests who got removed cause there easy to farm wich still work making lots of cash, if they blaim me tomorrow for still farming them i would freak out aswell, thats what a previous guy explains wich claims has been farming it for months.

hmm gaile makes a good distinction. the other glitches of ferryihng was taking to an existing place in game, not a forbidden place.

I wish the community would try to organize a GW black out. If you don't reverse these banned you really are a bunch of @ssholes. Well, off to play COD4.

"I'm mad you punished my friend and I am taking my crayons and going home, Who's with me?", is neither a productive, successful nor a very mature stance.
P.S. GW already has your money, leaving now just lessens the server load.

I had nothing to do with this and didn't hear about it until today..but I just have to ask the people flaming. If you had the chance to get a quick 100k+ from a source in the game, don't bs me like you wouldn't do it.
the aura in this thread is really saying how people who didn't know about the glitch are pissed that they weren't in on the pot!
And yes, perma-ban is too much, i do think that clearence of banks is sufficient punishment or maybe 1-2 month ban. But these people paid money for the CD and game and the punishment just doesn't fit the crime.

You knew when you bought the game that there was a EULA. If you choose to ignore it you suffer the consequences. What was done in the past is irrelavant, maybe they are getting sick of this crap and getting more strict.
You paid for the product and with it you knew the conditions. They all deserve a ban, maybe this is the start of banning gold sellers and botters too.

a good alternativwe to a perma ban would be to reset all of someone's titles, fame, and delete all their chars. at least they keep their account.
The Great Ithqua
i got over it.. whether i get my account back i leave it to Anet, if i do not get it back i hope the 117 of us that got sacrificed or ban for this issue do not get wasted, please so make sure this dun happen again for the sake of other players

Money paid for CD-keys is nothing compared to the devaluation of such hacks/exploits to an online game like GuildWars.
Swift Thief
ArenaNet did the right thing.
