Yeah I know. I just don't want to sit around and do nothing while waiting for them to ban all of us.

Unfortunately I only see two ways out of that.

1) You convince the people doing it to stop. Good luck with that, they get off on causing trouble.

2) The US servers open before anything else happens, and they go abuse those instead.

These options are of course discounting the obvious 'Sega needs to stop making products with holes in them'.

There's a pretty simple way around ip blocking simply get a japanese ip address search google.

For a start this place looks ideal:

The biggest problem with the ip block though is what stops Broomop or whoever doing exactly what I've said above.

I like how it seems to be all the overseas players fault.... got to love that mentality -.- I will wait for the USA/EU servers.......

could you please not post ways around an IP block, that will do nothing but give the troublemakers a way out after they do it......

The regional Ip ban will do nothing.

oh please, you can not make a game rock solid...... blaming Sega for the hacking is really stupid, you need to focus on the ones doing the hacking, they are the problem.

IMO only a small part of people would want to pay 15$ to just play and an even smaller part to pay 15$ on top of paying the premium subscription.

To be honest, I'd say report it.
People may see it as a catch 22 thing, but I think it actually shows something different. If a foreigner is willing to report these things, then it shows that they care about the game. Isn't this showing that there are foreigners that like the game and play by the rules and are even willing to try and make it better?
So I think reporting highlights that there are people who shouldn't be banned, and if we can do enough, then maybe we can avoid the worst case.

Oh boy! I can finally be Japanese! Anywhere!

Reporting offenders is definitely better than sitting on a forum crying and moaning all day about the problem instead of addressing it in any way it can be done. Those who are apathetic to the cause but angry about the effect are a bunch of annoying pissants.

My comment made it on Sakai's blog hehe. I didn't include everything everyone else was saying but my JP friend helped me write it. Let's hope he reads ARTEMIS and Star's posts! I think we can reach an understanding if we try!

More power to you. But out of curiosity, what exactly did your comment say? I feel I must've missed it somewhere.
