Rampant Botting on Palenque server

Quoted from "RPGMADLSFV"

Funny how a GM or forum mod can edit my post but can't log on and stop the Bots! It would have taken about the same amount of time. What is so wrong about reporting cheaters by name? If we the honest gamers cannot police the game at all via word of mouth then what chance does anyone have? Your forum rules seem to be protecting offenders.[/COLOR]


I think it has to do with EU privacy laws that prevents Frogster from revealing the name, home address, email, citizen number, taxpayer number, and date of birth of the cheaters. Aliases owned by Frogster are not covered by that law, but Frogster does not seem to know that.

Oh, wait, this is the US. EU law does not apply.

And this is the forum of Runes of Magic with Forum rules, which DO apply.

Thank you for following the rules when posting in this forum.

Reports of possible rule violations by players always have to go to support. No-one on forum can verify a report or clarify any false accusations you give here. Thus it can only lead to flames and fights and is qualified as naming and shaming.

Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.
