Atleast we could see NC NA doing something about bot/farmer/ebay and informing/warning players about what "should" happen to them if they cheat.
Like many player I don't believe that NC NA take care about those cheaters like they should. And the worst about that is most of the cheaters feel safe.
NCSoft NA should be more active about this problem and show it.
Botting and adena trading:
1st time: 1 hour freeze
2nd time: 2 hours freeze
3rd time: 3 hours freeze
4th time or more: 1 day ban
but inappropiate name, shop name, clan crest, pet name has:
1st time: warning name change
2nd time: 1 day ban
3rd time or more: 7 days ban
why is the punishment stronger for having an inappropiate name than botting/buying adena?
Agree 100%
what I do like:
Scammin:
30 day ban + item wipe
WTF? Scamming is perfectly legal. I would suggest:
Get scammed:
30 days stuck in Giran and every 10 minutes shout in Hero chat "I'm a freakin' moron!" + rest of items go to me for being too stupid to play L2.
Their management seems so much more in touch with the playerbase. I get increasingly frustrated with NA management over time. It was a big part of what drove me to quit the first time through.
Sounds like a police state to me. I like the autonomy they give us. They shoud not be in our market. If you get scammed, its your own fault for not being careful. I know that can be tricky sometimes but you have to be responsible.
I like the idea of giving people who bot a few chances. I never understood why a company would ban players thus reducing its returning players. You make money off return customers. Now i know someone will make the argument that they will just buy another account. That is mostly true for people who bot to sell adena, accounts, etc. But the normal player may just say "screw it" and move on. But if you warn this player straight out...he knows you are on to him/her...then he might reconsider his botting policies and stop. And if he doesn't stop then he is stupid because they already will be watching him lol. So this is good because it will retain some people that will otherwise leave. They need to implement that but stay out of the market.
Yes, but your leaving out a lot of people. What about those affected by the person botting? Sure you might lose 1 botter, or you can lose several players as a result to those botters. Point is, if someone isn't gonna play the game the way it should be played, then why allow them to play?

because they(botters) pay for 5+ accounts to your 1-2 accounts.
businesses are about making money! the only rule they uphold is the Profit Rule.

I know for sure I wouldn't play a game that had 99.99% automated players on all servers and everyone at 85/80/80/80 with full S80 gear enchanted to +6 armor sets and +16 weapons.
SEA is nothing more than a highly advertised and funded Private Server. All they need is to add some Paid Services and ability to buy your end game weapon, and it's 110% garbage at that point.
South East Asia has different gaming culture than US/Europe.
Stop comparing those.
For example, 80-90% of the player is usually from the capital city and/or the largest city, so pretty much most of your enemy in game is like 15-30 minutes away from you. XD
