What your competition does...

I hope this doesn't get me banned as it is posted in an attempt to show how other MMO's deal with certain problems.

"According to the World of Warcraft website, some 30,000 accounts were banned last month - and, as a result, more than 30 million gold were removed from the economy across all realms ... Based on the results of this investigation, more than 250 [FFXI] accounts among those found to be involved in large-scale RMT operations have been terminated... Thanks to these measures, more than 250 billion gil has been removed from circulation."

Any constructive thoughts?
30,000 accounts for World of Warcraft is an absolute pitance. Think about how many servers they have and how many subscribers. For that subscriber base it's nothing.

Atleast they do something, we had to go mass {bleep} red in our hunting ground yesterday on farmers because they were afk and we wanted our hunting room. Explain to me how that makes this game any fun at all.
I guess it's just suppose to show how WOW is actually doing something & how L2 isn't. I think thats what the OP is trying to say... I also agree with Jute, to tell you the truth thats about a pea size of accounts moved compared to how many servers & accounts are actually in use.

Some people do things and talk about it.

Some people do nothing and say they did something.

While I agree with you, hasn't it become quite apparent to you that every where you look there are more and more automated program runners running around? There are absolutely no dents being made at all into the cheating population.

And yet if NCSoft threw out numbers every month you'd feel better? That doesn't make sense.

You forgot one:

Have you ever had an issue with ants in your home?

If you smack one ant you see on the floor can you proclaim you took care of the issue? No, you can't.

Fact is nothing at all is being done, this game is in total ruin in the state it is in right now. There are catacombs, or places like Hot Springs and Wall of Argos where every mob is taken by automated parties. Its a very sad gaming world we live in.
I never said I would feel better LOL I just made a comment to the OP heh weather they fix this or not I will still play!!

If you ever got to a level where you could experience high level hunting grounds you would have absolutely no room to speak. Until then your input is moot.
