/em Stands, clapping profusely, stopping only long enough to wipe a single tear from his cheek.

I never said you did, I was merely pointing out the fact that it doesn't take some kind of server side monitor to ban people.

SEQ was just an example of something that couldn't be monitored/logged server side.

My point was, the very fact that database_1 can be stale means they don't log everything. Also just because people are getting banned doesn't mean they were *caught* with some server side logging. People do stupid things all the time, like those that Macros while AFK. When the only real cheat progra...

While somewhat on the topic, I once had a friend who had his account hacked and slashed by a rampant seq user. The gms got him his char back, couldnt get his items back, knew for a fact who did it, yet for some reason couldn't do anything but tell him who did it. Anybody want to speculate on this? ...

Actually, the way I *think* they handle this is as follows: They have 2 databases, 1 that is relatively static. it only gets updated when a Save, Zone, LD, or Camp takes place. The second database is a dynamic temporary database. The only function of this second database is to provide currency. it's...

A trade causes a "save" as L12 discribed. not an actual save to disk, which eventually gets backed up.

They can't Roll back to Any point in time. they can roll back to the Any save point. a save point occurs when you see "Soandso saved", when you zone, and when you camp or go LD. for example: If I logged in, gave you an item_A, and you gave me item_B. then we immediately trade back. Then I ...

I can't seem to get /rsay working. I couldn't find anyone else having this problem or any mention of /rsay in the docs. anyway here's a snipit: Sub Speak_Channel /if "$v70"=="tell" { /tell $v60 $v71 } else /if "$v70"=="raid" { /rsay $v71 } else { /g $v71 } /re...

I see, I misunderstood the actual problem. :)

If you cast on a Mob that is at max range, and you do not get a success message, that means the spell landed successfully. Only failures like: Resist, fizzle, or out-of-range are sent at max range. There really isn't a reason to check if the spell landed, you need only check to make sure it did not ...

ShowEQ only shows items you can actually see on a mob in game, like a sword, our a lightsource. everything else is serverside till you loot the corpse.

Cool, Thanks L12

I requested OR for /if's quite awhile ago.... Basically the same functionality as a case statement.... I think case would be a cleaner idea though.

It would be nice to have AND for if's too though

you're probably not passing the correct parameters to the macro when you start it. i.e. /macro combine.mac param1 param2 param3.

I dunno forsure though I've never uesed either of those macros
