    *Stretches* *yawns* Who cares?

    There is no rule that says you have to try your damnedest to win CW. So if people want to throw the fight then its the individuals choice. The only people whining are those who lose their bets.
    ZZZZZZZzzzzzzz. Wake me up again when they add new content.

    Morgan: Maybe there should be a section on swapping maps out and sinking continuously, powering down for HP (I know you guys on s1 don't power down, I'm just talking generally) , knocking yourself down in Arena to farm, hiding out in HR to attack players..... and so on. All of these are exploits. Bending the gameplay to get the best rewards. As I've said numerous times, what is considered a legal or illegal exploit is down to uCool. The main issue here is no one really understanding what an exploit is.


    I completely disagree that that these are exploits. Hiding in HR to attack is a strategy in a war game. Sinking ships is supposed to happen, losing maps is expected. (now who runs the acct that is passed to is another matter) Kinda dirty, but not an exploit. Same goes for moving in arena, and choosing your form, if it happens to be on a Friday - not an exploit. So I go with the issue of throwing matches in CW as not an exploit, it is well within all boundries to choose your form. The ethics of doing so may be in question, but not against any rule that I know of.

    P.S. Just wanted to add; an exploit is like using your clock to shorten the sail time, thereby reducing your chances to get sunk, as a prime example.

    As I was saying, no one really understands what an exploit is. This comes under the category of game play exploits. It's working as intended but at the same time it's not. I don't think the intention was ever for players to fix matches or bounce about the Arena or set HP to make it easier.

    There are bug exploits, lag or disconnect, twinking and so on. Often players are unaware it's an exploit, which is why I wanted to make it clear no cheating as occurred.

    Got it now guys, awesome. Back to my sick bed.

    Got it now? Is that as player or you pulling the mod card again? That is rather rude.

    So if I entered CW and left only main in for KO round1 and got knocked out, would we be having the same debate?
    If not why not?
    Same rules should apply to all

    I was not aware you are still sick. I don't know what it is you have, but hope you get better soon. Mental stress plays a lot into the length of the healing process, so it may be best if you focus on getting better and stay away from the game until you are fully healed.

    Mean while I will keep everyone in check on the forum

    You probably know what's different otherwise you wouldn't bring this up as an example but... your intentions and what you stand to gain count for something. But for the most part, until Tynon Devs wake up and do/say something, it is not the players fault but the game's.

    that would be actually cheating by exploiting a bug

    Exactly my point kaisim. The point was that hitting in HR, hidden or not, is part of the game as designed, and not an exploit of it's intent as Morgan said. Neither is robbing maps or sinking ships at sea.
