Aion Takes Action Against Player Store Abuse

In a continuing effort to ease queue times and alleviate the growing concern of the Aion playerbase, NCsoft has finally implemented measures to stop the player store abuse.

Upon logging into game, after an often long queue, players were angered to witness a sea of AFK players utilizing the player store to keep their characters from being logged out while they were unavailable to play in turn avoiding the queue themselves. These players would leave a outrageously high priced item in their store, nearly guaranteeing that they would not be booted until their return making it even more difficult for other players to log in.

Now, there will be a 30 minute time limit on player stores. If the player isn't available to continue their gameplay, then the standard inactivity rule will apply and the system will log that player out automatically.

Thank you for your patience!

That's pretty lame they have stuff like that going on, but yet at the same time pretty funny as well seeing as I don't play there or have to put up with it. ;o

Seems hilarious to me, players that actually are trying to sell items will revolt.

I have tested this with NoFap running in a circle and the /t playername message command went through fine. Note that currently it just has support for sending commands to Aion and that at the moment, Aion must be the foreground window for it to go through. I hope to be able to work around this soon.

NCsoft gegen den Player-Store Missbrauch

Aion - In fortwährendem Bemühen die Warteschlangen zu verkürzen und die Massen an Spielern zu beschwichtigen baute NCsoft nun Maßnahmen gegen den Missbrauch der Playerstores in das Spiel ein. Als Aion-Zocker wurde man in letzter Zeit Zeuge der Versuche der Mitspieler selbst die Warteschlangen zu umgehen, indem sie die Playerstore-Funktion nutzten, um nicht vom Server gekickt zu werden, während sie selbst nicht am PC anwesend sind, was ja an sich die Warteschlangen verlängert, da neue...
