Do botters spoof their IP or something?

I'm assuming GGG wouldn't hesitate to IP ban a big-time botter. So they must be changing it every time they get caught or just spoofing it in the first place, right?

Otherwise I was going to suggest charging like 20 or 40 bucks to un-ban an account, and just leave it as flagged to check in on those bastards occasionally.

I'm serious and I say this as someone who hasn't ever been banned.

It's free to create accounts so botters never have to stop. If we could nail those fuckers with some IP-bans it might set em straight when they have to pay $20 to get back in the action.

why dont you grab a can opener and open your mind son

there are forums that do this and it creates a lot of revenue out of thin air using systems already in place (banning fuckers)

Botters would just use a hacked paypal account or chargeback after they are done muling all their stuff. It would cost money to GGG to implement this...

LOL pay to unban an account

Now that's a first I think

Not only is it not a first, but you can do it with Garena accounts, and Garena now publishes PoE, so uh..... it's already happening in theory.

There is absolutely no way that they would allow anyone to pay to have their account unbanned

Kind of ridiculous that your statement isn't correct, but that's just the way it is.

I suggest people layt off the OP for the absurdity of his suggestion, given that it is technically a reality already.

You're telling me that GGG is going to allow someone who has been banned for botting or spamming to fucking pay to get an account again??

I seriously, seriously doubt that.

So when you say "kind of ridiculous that your statement isn't correct" - there's just a small technical problem with that, you haven't proven that it isn't correct, are you actually saying that you think they'd let someone pay to remove a ban?

Are both of you guys just in on some mega-troll conspiracy to confuse me here?? Because it is working lul

Again in case you had trouble reading it the first time: Garena hosts PoE for South East Asia. If your Garena account gets banned for using maphacks, RMT, etc then you can buy an "unban card" which gets your account unbanned. As such, you can already play PoE, get a ban, and buy your way out of it, you just have to do it on Garena's servers.

Edit for clarity: Garena has two types of bans. They use autobans for RMT, maphacks, and basic forms of cheating, and these are what you can use the unban card for. They also have a system to perma ban people for more serious stuff (like attempting server side hacks) and there is no way to buy your way out of those.

i didn't realize you worked at GGG. i think what threw me off was that your'e a dumb bad poster.

anyways, thanks for setting us straight on what GGG will and will not do with absolute certainty.

Do you seriously think I have trouble reading? I think you know who I am a little better than that. "Unban card", lol, what an absolute joke

If GGG allowed anyone who was banned from PoE (not Garena) access back to their account that was banned for a fee, it would be an absolute joke.

And GGG does not consider themselves a joke. So I think that I'll stand by my giggles over the notion that someone could pay to overturn a ban for botting or especially RMT. XD

Evidently you are having trouble reading. Go play PoE on Garena, get banned, and buy an unban card. It's that simple. It's a core part of Garena's business model.

PoE not Garena? What do you even mean by that? Garena is publishing PoE for South East Asia. It is PoE, and you can pay to get your account unbanned. What's so hard to understand about that?
