I too would like to know how you report people. I don't see any sort of interface in the game itself for doing it, but people say there is an active GM team. How on earth do you call them up?

As for this issue, are you sure it wasn't another person named after you to mess with your head?

[Fazeshot]

Im positive I will post the video here in a second he was also making bubbles with no color around them off in the distance with no name in them and the bubble wasnt attached to any characters

also i know it wasnt a duplicate of my character cuz the text was overwriting the text I was typing and the bubble was attached to my characters name with the same color text

The characters name was

Orlando Saint Broom if u go to uni 1 guardians colony 4th floor by linear line he's probobly still sitting there doing it

Floating bubbles and squares of text without a line to the author is fairly common for me when people spam crap. Even the most recent one on screen doesn't trace a line to the one doing it. No name is ever present either... of course, everybody who idles in the AMF Field Base on Parum sees this like, everyday.

It was a hack? I didn't know that. >.>

[Fazeshot]

Videos there watch now u can clearly see everyone freaking out about him making them type


I can't really explain whats going on just look I tried my best to prove it was him

Well with that said. Once he does start hacking meseta and items, I wonder if the fanboys will complain about him hacking instead of complaining about the people complaining about the content lock.

[Eli_Leviathan]

haha lets hope so.....we need more reasons to be pissed http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

[AlphaMinotaux]

I think GMs will need Rapidshare. They can't download from Megaupload. Oh wait, nobody can download from RS either. Hmm... Oh! torrent it! Oh wait, they are banned from most trackers. Hmm. Failsafe: Youtube it. EVERYBODY can use youtube. I've yet to encounter someone who can't use youtube.

Well, some people would just stop playing.

Doesn't duplicate, FSOD, or hack any of the gameplay mechanisms and therefore, it does not concern me at all.

Ever heard of a "Proof of Concept"? It's the initial demonstration that prooves that a project will work, before the investment is made to finish it. What Broomop has done there, is a Proof of Concept. He has proven that he can circumvent GameGuard, tinker with the client, and cause the server to believe other clients are sending information that they're not. This is especially scary, because this is closely related to PSO's NOL problem.

[whiteninja]

PSOBB is going to be hack proof.
Quoted for truth.

[butzopower]

Broom has reversed engineered servers like the Bomberman Online ones. Anything he's doing is much more elaborate than your silly ol' "12 year old" memory editting.

By no means do I appreciate what is happening, but you bringing age into what these guys are doing just makes you look more foolish.

According to someone who works with Broomop, they have a working dupe code now. In fact, she sold 10 nanocarbons, then said she could switch to her other char to get more if anyone needed them, that char had 300. So I guess it may eventually affect you.

[Saphion]

Surely you can't carry more than 99 of each synth item per character? In the circumstances, having 300 on one character seems unlikely. Hate to sound like I'm having a go at you (I'm not), but have you any proof?

EDIT: That's what happens in offline mode, anyway. I don't see why network mode would let you carry more.

broom was doing the same thing in raffon fields too, but i fixed it by just Blisting him and you dont get the spam. he was spamming his website over and over and making everyone say it. so ppl were getting pissed at the people he was making spam adn not him, and i was one of those ppl. so it definetly is a big thing to me. and as for him having 300 nanocarbons, you could have 99 in your bank 99 in your inv and 99 in the account bank. just a thought. but ya this hack is complete BS and i dont want him to do more.

[Saphion]

Couldn't they just get some out of the account bank then instead of switching character?

[Raine_Loire]

They could have a diff account they dupe with... that account could have 4 chars... those 4 chars could have 99 each and 99 in storage... nanocarbons COULD take over the universe in that case...

No, I don't have proof that Broomops duping code works, except that most people with 10 carbons would list them in their shop for 2 k and make a bit of money instead of selling em for 1.2 or something in Raffon Field. I suppose you could call it a hunch... and 371 seems like a very precise number to make up. Since the drama surrounding hacking is so thick, it IS possible she was making it all up just to make Broomop look good, though.

But the real wrong he is doing is making other chars talk. I'm not a hacker so I don't know how he does it- whether he can do it to anyone or only certain people. You can't blacklist the real problem, though, so blacklisting is pointless. Someone said he has a key stroke recorder on his site so if you go there he can get your account info... I don't know if it is true or not, but people should be careful. Wouldn't it suck to try to log in and find out your account had been banned because he had been using it while you were asleep? He's like an e- mosquito... buzzing around, being annoying... kind of a pointless existance, IMHO.

Better, thanks. I wasn't sure which it was.
