Unless you PM the GMs about such alleged infractors with char name (and preferably char ID), there is nothing that can be done. It is impossible for them to monitor 1k unique IPs without our help.

LOL, there was a Cove event, I think the one with green dragons, where I was stealing the eagles before the dragons dropped. Good times.

Here comes Sir Quicksalot on his mount, "Vendor Sell" and in the span of 20 sec he empties the vendor clean of it's gold!!! (where I have to click each item I want to sell, and I'm lucky to sell a tenth of what I would be normaly able to sell.) :evil:

Dunno if legit or not, but it P****es me off. *sigh*

wait...you can do that?

A lich lord has 700 gold, so no he can't steal it all every time. He's a tamer, not a rogue.

Admin does not discuss their methods of detection. I am just speaking of what I've done in the past and has resulted in people being banned.

I agree Kaivan, that's why I posted my hardware/internet specs. Even the best "ninja looter" would be hard pressed to take all the gold off a body while it's still falling!

Scavenger only picks up items in the world, not on corpses right?

Yeah it's gotta be lying on the ground.

And even then, Scavenger regularly fails me. I "clear scavenger cache" which helps sometimes but I think I must miss 20-30% of the gold piles.

yup definitely seen people looting my corpse with auto-loot on, items flying off the corpse and back on again so fast it looked like one of those money counting machines at the bank. Also saw an argument with 2 people where one was saying ' ah I had auto-loot on my bad' and the other was all pissed about it and demanding his stuff back.

So ... yeeeah.
