Dupe Method Unconfirmed

This particular strategy is an "EXTREME" strategy which could certainly get you banned in the game. In my estimation the tactic taken here greatly increases your chances of being caught through a simple database query by the creators of the game.

That being said, if you are a risk taker and don't have any ethical problem with the technique....go for it! The vast majority of our members have demanded allowing such posts on our boards, but I still do so with some distaste. If you wish to discuss the method further, please do so via PM!

Well guys I'm posting one of the dupes.. I figure I might as well get it out so it gets fixed faster. Oh and if I find out someone in the MPS guild used the dupe they get to meet my boot.

Next time you see that a server is going to go down, open up an exchange with another person. Put in blah blah whatever then have ONE PERSON hit the 'Trade' button so that their side goes green. Wait until the server goes down.

WHEN THE SERVER COMES UP: The person who hit trade should have their items/gold/silver/whatever the **** they put in and the other person should have it too.

Servers go down around 4am usually

interesting...

although to be fair, its certainly feesable that this could happen naturally. i mean without that specific intention.

maybe you want to give your alt summin b4 you log, an sure enough, the server jst happens to go down :P

not saying its a means of pleadin innocence.

I can't imagine one would get banned IF that works...

There are no rules against trades shortly before shutdown, nor can They expect me to report such a bug, cause in a normal case, I wouldn't have noticed.

But do it on every shutdown, with the same characters/accounts, and you can be sure to get busted^^

This USED to work a long time ago, round patch 1.4 but was fixed very quickly.
