Interesting from my attack log.

Got hit by popcan for 10k.
Actual game coordinates not taken but figures shown are changed to highlight the difference and show the relative positions.
My location : 200north 200east
Attacker's location : 54north 154west

CSStriker · **Posted:** Fri Jun 08, 2007 1:38 pm

:twisted:

yeah looks like that striker.

Seacaptainn can you please make a post stateing that using a bug is cheating to clear a few things up, I have just had a heated discussiin about this in chat and some just think that its ok to use a bug.

SeaCaptainN · **Posted:** Fri Jun 08, 2007 2:46 pm

It's NOT OK to use a bug in the system to your advantage.

Those who intentionally used this security hole will have action taken against them.

go ahead and say what you want, i dont care

but let it be known ALL truces are now over, you can all keep calling me a cheater after i take your gold over and over again

Did anyone say you was cheating? the bug i found can accidentally be used and all i said was it looked like the bug.

does that have anything to do with all the ships being sunk last month?

Thanks husk, fell right into it, lol run to popcan and give him the chat details.

Didn't you say that using a bug is ok? i'll post the logs if you want, as its not a written law.

I don't care what you said to pop, post the rest of the log to show to others, didn't i say that using a bug is considered cheating? and what did seacaptainn say after you said it wasn't a written law.

Plus i said if he used a bug then action should be taken against him, not that he used a bug, don't just post snippets and make it look bad on me when others said they would use a bug to there advantage too.

huskerswrkhavoc · **Posted:** Sat Jun 09, 2007 3:57 pm

taz, i said i COMPLETELY agree with you that its wrong, BUT since it was an UNWRITTEN law, that it was going to be tougher to punish him.. look up your logs.. i think nelgrepos was the one saying what your accusing me of...

08/06/2007 13:48:07 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› how so
08/06/2007 13:48:20 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› its never been stated that its illegal
08/06/2007 13:48:31 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› so i mean technically, there is nothing that can rightfully be done
08/06/2007 13:49:02 ‹tazomatic› if thats allowed then i quit
08/06/2007 13:49:13 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› it wont be allowed
08/06/2007 13:49:15 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› but
08/06/2007 13:49:21 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› its like scripts befor08/06/2007 13:49:28 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› never said it cant be used so why can you punish people
08/06/2007 13:49:34 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› for taking advantage of things
08/06/2007 13:49:45 ‹tazomatic› i think i know a way to fix it but i need sea
08/06/2007 13:50:27 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› pop pry has a pm in his inbox saying that if he does it again hes gonna be in trouble
08/06/2007 13:50:39 ‹tazomatic› all you have to do is add a fubtion to check if the distance is outside your radar area, its easy to fix
08/06/2007 13:51:00 ‹tazomatic› yes but using it is wrong
08/06/2007 13:51:10 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› i completely agree
08/06/2007 13:51:32 ‹tazomatic› i noticed it and contacted seacaptainn about it straight away and then we did a test
08/06/2007 13:51:50 * *huskerswrkhavoc* quit (timeout)
08/06/2007 13:52:55 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› but you see where im coming from right?
08/06/2007 13:53:53 ‹tazomatic› yes but i would say pop needs punishing for using it
08/06/2007 13:53:54 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› yea
08/06/2007 13:53:55 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› it works
08/06/2007 13:54:08 * pyroblood joins Pirate The World
08/06/2007 13:54:16 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› but doesnt it cost however many moves from pt a to pt b?
08/06/2007 13:54:31 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› possibly taz
08/06/2007 13:54:35 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› but like i said..
08/06/2007 13:54:38 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› how does he know for sure its wrong?
08/06/2007 13:54:46 ‹tazomatic› thats not the point though
08/06/2007 13:54:49 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› there are bugs in many things that are exploited that noone ever finds out about
08/06/2007 13:55:03 ‹tazomatic› pop knows its wrong, he has played often enough
08/06/2007 13:55:12 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› possibly
08/06/2007 13:55:21 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› you could say people knew scritps were wrong too
08/06/2007 13:55:25 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› scripts*
08/06/2007 13:55:37 ‹tazomatic› they should yes
08/06/2007 13:55:45 ‹tazomatic› its cheating
08/06/2007 13:55:48 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› but people continued to use them
08/06/2007 13:55:53 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› including yourself
08/06/2007 13:56:02 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› and including the current owners of this game
08/06/2007 13:56:10 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› so its not like they haven't been there before
08/06/2007 13:56:23 ‹tazomatic› and now i have seen pop done that then i want to see some action really
08/06/2007 13:56:40 ‹tazomatic› i just used the change pirate colour script
08/06/2007 13:56:40 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› hmm
08/06/2007 13:56:47 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› that is a little hypocritical personally
08/06/2007 13:56:52 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› its still a script
08/06/2007 13:56:58 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› that gives you an advantage
08/06/2007 13:57:04 * pyroblood quit (timeout)
08/06/2007 13:57:04 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› im just pointing things out here
08/06/2007 13:57:07 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› im not disagreeing with you
08/06/2007 13:57:10 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› so dont get me wrong
08/06/2007 13:57:47 ‹tazomatic› i used it when the old owners said it was ok, i personally emailed them
08/06/2007 13:58:06 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› you e-mailed them before you ever used it?
08/06/2007 13:58:19 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› AND got a response?
08/06/2007 13:58:38 ‹tazomatic› but hitting someone when your not there is very bad in my eyes
08/06/2007 13:58:46 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› yes
08/06/2007 13:58:48 ‹tazomatic› yes i probably have the email too
08/06/2007 13:58:58 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› i dont doubt you e-mailed them
08/06/2007 13:59:06 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› im saying before you ever installed the script i dont know
08/06/2007 13:59:10 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› and no one ever will
08/06/2007 13:59:20 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› i agree too taz
08/06/2007 13:59:20 ‹tazomatic› i know u don't
08/06/2007 13:59:31 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› its very wrong
08/06/2007 13:59:36 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› but changing a color
08/06/2007 14:00:04 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› points out where pirates are that you dont know
08/06/2007 14:00:11 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› so all you have to do is check out the new pirates board every day
08/06/2007 14:00:19 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› and add new names
08/06/2007 14:00:48 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› PLUS weren't you working on a color script for THIS game too? and you couldnt do it? were you planning on asking capt AFTER spending time working on it?
08/06/2007 14:01:00 ‹tazomatic› i couldn't do that
14:01:10 ‹tazomatic› i would have to remove script then readd
08/06/2007 14:01:11 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› you couldnt do what
08/06/2007 14:01:24 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› its not that hard to edit
08/06/2007 14:01:25 ‹tazomatic› i used it to stop me attacking fleet members
08/06/2007 14:01:48 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› now your acting like im stupid..
08/06/2007 14:01:56 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› its NOT AT ALL hard to edit a script like that
08/06/2007 14:02:03 ‹huskerswrkhavoc› writing, yes, editing, no

that is all i have taz.. i never said you said it was ok did i? i know you think its wrong, obviously.. i NEVER said a bug is ok.. please find where i said "using a bug is ok" i said i agree its wrong to use it, but that since its unwritten, punishing the way you wanted is going to be tougher..

i didnt fall into anything... if i fell into it that would mean that i have something to hide from that chat... i do not... there is nothing that i said that agrees using it is right.. don't try to make me look bad by posting that either taz.. all i did was post the parts that were relevant to that.. here is everything i have..

ok sorry it was nel that said it, but it doesn't matter if its unwritten or not, IF he used it then he should be punished, notice i put if.

someone pointed out what i was doing wrong and the problem occurred because of all the browser problems ive been having the past month i have been forced to keep 2 windows open in order to play effectively. FF i use to hunt with but changing ships lags out the browser really bad making me an easy target when i have fame, i then switch over to IE when i can island hop extremely fast and find resets in under 1 minute but my radar blinks or is completely black when the radar is live. I have been playing for 1 month like this and i am sure the admins can verify that there is less than 10 possibly 5 hits that were the result of a bug.

you can all keep calling me a cheater but i am not going to stop using 2 browsers to play because it is the ONLY WAY i can play until capt fixes things.

onto the next post
