I've added a rate-limiter.
Its ind of terrible when this happens, but I have the offender's account name and IP address, so let the hunt begin!
Note: He has also been IP banned, but if he manages to log in again I'll just do full out account bans. Wouldn't be a real alpha unless someone ended up on my shitlist!
Also: if you are not the offender and find yourself banned, let me know. It was probably a mistake. Personally, I hate banning people.
And for those wondering, this does not violate the spirit of the 'Free EQ' server. This is because, while you are free to do whatever, you still have to face the consequences when you come to my server just to fuck shit up. Now, if you break shit and find bugs? Kudos, I'll give you a big fat reward, but just malicious assholery? That will be met with the stick, not the carrot.
Thanks for the support guys <3
Also updates: mercs continue to be hit repeatedly with the NERF STICK to get them in line with players. I think I've finally found a good balance (been live since yesteray)
OP spells are continually being removed
vox and naggy are killable at any level
We have out first official guild(s) popping up! Wooho.
Today will be the day where i start revamping the teleport spells to go to the correct zones (thanks voovip) and removing deathtouch spells from npcs, because fuck that. There will also be a cap on mob damage past 60 something between of 'holy fuck that hurts' and 'at least im not 1-shotted'
Also, congrats to everyone for finding all 18 of the charm vendors, that didn't take very long (thanks to MQ2, im guessing) -- be aware that vendors will get sneaky in the future and much bettter at hiding in beta.
thats all for now.
ttyl, vvkr
