[My english sucks, sorry]

Well, some people discovered a form to manipulate accounts so we have a new top 1 and some accounts boosted. Maybe some small boosts in few accounts hoping to not get banned.

How? Well, we have no dark matter in this universe, so there're only two forms. The GOs and the team knows how to operate.

But there's a serious problem with bots, pushing and lunar accounts in this universe (for example, the account specjall, or Goodwin, who just did another moontry today, free for some top, again. I hope they both got banned).

The team are trying to do their job but this universe seems to need a lot of rude bad cops. What a jerk users we have... -.-

It's not the usual pushing if you suspect that, it's something else we can't really do much about currently except banning everyone that got a profit of it. On the other hand there are multiple users that had this problem by accident and reported it themself.

On monday we will consult with the persons in charge at Gameforge and see what can be done about it.

Chuck el fursiu · Apr 8th 2017, 1:17am

Of course is not the usual pushing

We'll se how it ends! Don't play a lot this weekend, maybe backup incoming? :O

Thnks for the speed!

It is good to know that you guys know about this. It is really annoying and spoiling the game. I reported it yesterday via support system BTW.

Evagelan · Apr 8th 2017, 1:28am

Some of us did report the bug indeed.

The main problem is that some players are using the bug to cheat, and it will take a lot of work to check all accounts that might have benefit from this glitch, but i trust a solution will be found.

Thank you for the update, have fun everyone ;)

NoMoreAngel · Apr 8th 2017, 1:47am

Maybe a backup, maybe something else. Don't know what the GF overall did for this server in form of backups.

For now a lot of players are banned that got a profit of it and didn't do the necessary stuff you should do in such a case.

Chuck el fursiu · Apr 8th 2017, 1:51am

Didn't knew there was a sploit :O When it's patched maybe someone can explain to us

Sorcy · Apr 8th 2017, 1:52am

Most of them are innocent victims of manipulation anyway, however imho it's still good to be temp. banned - because some of them may not be even aware of shiny new un-saved fleet parked on their planet. Not that it make any difference, but anyway.

I miss pranger, my favorite thing

Canarefr · Apr 8th 2017, 5:14am

So this is not a new thing? The why in this last rank update we have seen this escalation?

because of this, I think that it is a new thing, maybe 3 days old

Wow I am disappointed not to be playing this weekend but good work on taking affiramtive action. Will look forward to the outcome. Until then; a spot of gardening!

Sorcy · Apr 8th 2017, 12:30pm

In case server login come back I suggest 12 hours or something non-attack ban as usual practise on server roll back and similar occurences where players don't know when to be online to fleetsave.

Canarefr · Apr 8th 2017, 12:50pm

I agree with @Sorcy. Also, in case that i had an incoming attack vs me when the server went down, what should i do? Will we have a back up?

Sorcy · Apr 8th 2017, 1:04pm

Unless they don't have backups, roll back would be logical part of solution here. There must be hundreds players who pumped up some ships accidentally. Not on a huge scale as those banned players, but still... Even some of us who saw this thread yesterday thought that this is about isolated case with someone exploiting server and pumping up few accounts while it seems now that this potentially affected everyone who spent some overnight mines resources on ships.

lateamoose · Apr 8th 2017, 1:24pm

I have never once noticted extra ships and I pay very close attnetion to the amount I build. I name every one.

Yes, this is my case. Spending my overnight mines resources this morning i duplicate a few cruisers (10 to 20 maybe?)..So what to do now?

Jango · Apr 8th 2017, 2:03pm

waiting, at the moment game is down, so we will see what the authorities say after that

@dit: And with authorities I don't mean multiple Authoritys

esox lucius · Apr 10th 2017, 7:11am

Hi guys,

I'm the one which survived without Ban.

I put 5 Destroyers to shipyard and get 50
Put 50dest I get 500dest
Put 3LF get 300LF.
etc...

So it was doubling/tripling etc fleet when you was building it and everytime you put "overwiev" this quantity was increasing

I wrote to GO/SGO - WTF why it is happening and they told me that this error was since friday and working on it. Hope they will repair is fast

Sorcy · Apr 10th 2017, 6:31pm

But for some reason you still couldn't resist pumping number of your ships up more and more, once you realized there's bug, correct? :whistling:

Really? xD

Really? xD
