Ok... umm, I got that you were corrupted... but thats about it. Anyway, yes that does suck very much. However legits feel there playing style and enjoyment is attacked by their encounters with tons of people asking if they have God units as if they were common or 9 out of 10 HUmars they play with come in with BKBs and J-Swords at level 50 cutting down everything before anyone else can get a hit. All I'm saying is either don't do it, or show some damn restraint.

Generalizations, goodie.

No, I don't have UBER-1337-LEGIT PRIDE. I just like to use things I find, rather than getting items from other people.

I don't go running around trying to convert the heathen dupers, shouting "REPENT! REPENT!" and throwing all their dupes into a bonfire. I don't mind if people dupe, so long as it doesn't affect me.

Both legits and dupers can run in and tear things apart before I hit them, and then I get irritated. If you share EXP, I don't care what you're using. I don't care if you're on the "legit" side or the "duper" side; I care what you, as an individual, do.

I dupe, yes. I don't do it to corrupt the economy, or to cheat at my own gain because I suck, LOL. I was rich before I started duping. I do it to reinsure my hard work because they don't deserve to rob me of $9 a month to give me a tumor in my head, LOL.

can't we just kinda drop the whole legit vs "cheater" thing, really they aren't exactly cheaters are they they just take advantage of a glich in the game. can't we just end this war. it is just a game we can look beyond it, i have i'm going to stop bashing people who use dups and Dup.
why, it's not gonna do anything, it's anoying to the both of us. if the "cheater" is a mean person then well...i'll give them hell and and be a asshole to them. i won't nag about how they dup. i'll just poke fun at the. but some duppers just well do it because they don't care.]
i know it seems that i'm on the wrong side but that because well.. i not on any side. this legit vs cheaters war has been going on since ver1 DC no ones' winning, as we speak more GC new PSOers are learning how to dup, it's a un win able battle. can't we just....get along and forget it all.
i mean it's just a game. and they are just players. can't we just have a giant treadie saying legits shall get alone with "dupers" VIA not playing with them or setting up "Hacker only and Legit Blocks"
i think it would help i lil.
just can we stop the fighting.

"there's enough chaos war and blodd shed without a bunch of gamers and kids fighting because they cheat steal,kill and take advantage of everything."

I believe this kind of stuff started when man developed the ability to think.

There will always be legit vs cheater whatevers with games, as long as there is cheating. That's just the way it is.

That's strange... especially when you consider that we legits would rather have PSO be a cheat free game, where cheaters and legits don't exist.

For 9$ a month we should be able to do whatever we want.If sega/ST would keep up with their severs,all the people that dupe because they lost their stuff wouldn't be around.So if you need to blame someone for "ruining" pso it sould be sega/ST.And who cares it's just a game.You "legits" care way to much about what other people do in their pso.

Apr 15, 2003, 08:43 AM
This is my stance on the whole duping thing:

Personally, I don't care if people duplicate items and distribute them. If you witness people giving out duped items and don't agree with/like it, leave the game. Don't sit there and waste your/their/everyone else's time by flaming and arguing. At the end of the day, what have you gained from it? Nothing. If you want a duped item, take it. If not, don't. See, simple isn't it??

I am not a duper/GSer/PKer or any other kind of cheater, but you have to see it from different angles and not take the "I think it's wrong so it must be" stance - which is the easy thing to do. I know some people on PSOv2 who do dupe items, but they are the nicest, kindest, most fun people to play with. And no, they don't run about with their Spread Needles killing everything in sight. You can't tar everyone with the same brush that easily.

You will never cure this cheating problem because there will always be other ways around it. You can bet, as soon as Sonic Team enforce another security measure, there will be someone laughing because they ALREADY know a way to get past it. This has been proven on this forums many times if you read back.

What I do think is wrong is when people INTENTIONALLY disrupt others' games. Like those stupid idiots who crash the Lobbies for fun, or PKers/CKers/Nol-ers, aggressive spammers/stalkers, people who force their way into passworded games...the list goes on.

I really do believe that everyone who does these things is missing something in their life if they have to go and take pleasure from others' misfortunes. It's immaturity and selfishness. Not good qualities on a game meant for communities and groups of friends.

TeamPhalanx
Apr 15, 2003, 08:49 AM
Oh wow... the old 'blame ST' and the 'cheating doesn't hurt anyone' statements...

Can't any cheater out there actually form an argument that hasn't been used a zillion times before? If it didn't work after a zillion tries, it ain't gonna work now.

Sounds exactly like my philosophy. Scumbags are scumbags. I love watching that HUmar with the T-J sword run far ahead of the group in Ultimate Ruins, thinking he can take on anything with his uber-1337 sword. Then I go res him so he can do it again for my amusement.

The advantage of PSO: if you get stuck with a cheater, go lone wolf and go for all the sweet boxes and huge XP rooms. The cheater will probably try to go straight for the boss. Who cares about the boss! I make more XP killing an army of Dimenians in 2 minutes than I do killing Falz. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

We all want rares. Situation here is that legits are willing to earn them. I've seen enough blue-hawk posts to know that some people do get frustrated by not finding stuff.

Cheater... well, are willing to cheat for a rare item.

Apr 20, 2003, 09:44 AM
it seem pretty clear,
A. there will never be "peace" or anything like a "we don't care lets all be friends" kind of relationship with between legits and cheaters

B. end to cheating (unless something were to happen and the all great Sonic Team figured something out and fix whatever it is that may be fixed)

eh i guess it doesn't matter now, if you were to just not pay attention to all the cheating it doesn't bother you, though one thing thats sorta getting to me is that people are now hacking into the game, taking advantage of a glitch to win (fine ok your a smart boy) but hacking into the game. i don't think thats right.

can we stop saying how much Sonic Team sucks? they don't i mean they did give you all the PS games not to mention the Sonic games, really how can you say "GAh i hate ST they suck there game is so unbalanced" while your actually adicted to PSO?
heh...something i guess don't make sense.
oh yeah don't forget the other reason to cheat.

"because we can" and "it's cool and everyones doing it"

lastly, in a offline game (not RPG) i do cheat, but only when i've beaten the game, there isn't a excuse for me cheating the best ones i can throw out are.

"i look for things that make the game a tad funner, like a hard mode"

"and god-like life is fun to have so i can go back and just beat up on the final enemy that gave me so much hell."

though i can safely say, i don't cheat in the newer games, and i've never boughten a cheat device.
i cheated in the first systems like SNES megaman X stuff like that, when a cheat was just a password.

OT: can a password cheat be justifid by saying "it's a password and it was sorta but in the game for a reason" as opposted to cheating when the game and the company doesn't want you to cheat.

yeah i know, i'm a post killer. lets just try and keep this going o.o;;

I never saw password as cheating.

Well, in the pure definition sense, it is cheating; however, it's something that the develop intentially put in the game.

There's a huge difference between doing something that was intended and put in by the developer and doing something that goes against the developer's wishes.

Don't most developers let the passwords leak out after the game has been out for awhile? (Azurik comes to mind)

Lol, in the instruction booklet to that Bomberman game on Gameboy that had Wario in it (I think it was called Wario Blast), they had a page that showed how to put in passwords. It showed a picture of this guy holding a Gameboy with the password 2264 already typed in, so I tried it on the actual game and it gave me all the powerups. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

Most all developers/publishers release password at (almost) the immediate release of the game.

The only one that's really good at keeping them a secret is Factor5/LucasArts. I still cannot believe that they managed to keep the Naboo Starfighter a secret for so long.

Overall, I think the funniest cheat is the classic Konami code for their NES games. Everyone knew it, and even though you weren't sure if it would work or not, you'd try it on every new Konami game released.

the konami code .... brings back memories, what a classic

what was really funny was the spinoffs from the original konami code, like up, down, up, down, instead of up, up, down, down ... and the left/rights too .... but always that b, a, start ...

oh, and btw, isn't that cheating?? oh no ... lol
