It's logged.

You truly overestimate the storage space required for a few lines of text lol.

Any valuable items are logged when traded/dropped/looted. Afaik they log a TON of other stuff as well.

Db's are their main source of income. You can bet your ass that every single thing related to db's purchased from the site are logged so they can keep track of them.

Hell even players completely unrelated to yourself can get banned if they are in possession of hacked/scammed db's. I remember players getting whacked after someone bought an item off them for db's. Tq would temp ban their account till they could remove the db's (or perma ban in some cases) and they would never get the sold item back.

It probably wouldn't work, TQ would just ban any char like said before. The db into items thing might just work though, not entirely sure.

actually this does work but you need to be a little more clever than just trading dbs.

database records all trades and all items and can see every person who has ever held a certain item.

it does not however record drops or gold.

if you sell the dbs for gold you can drop all the gold and pick it up without it being trackable.

if you were to just drop an item they can follow the item's history, if you were to just trade gold they can check the trade.

database has no way of checking this and no check digits exist for gold like they do cps.

I'm sure every item in the game (when spawned) is given an ID of some sort. Once this ID is created it can be linked no matter what happens to the item. ex: Droped, Pked off, Traded, Sold you name it..

Just a theory.
