1/12/12 - Day of Boosting
 

Today I took a look at the leaderboard seeing 37 people with over 1,000 kills. I think "mod must be hell", but no there was a huge boost fest at swamp all day. "How's it boosting? If people wanna kill in a massive crowd let them and stop whining b****" for the people thinking that let me explain. When you enter swamp town you gotta go through that tight space between the cliffs. This is where the boosting took place. If you stand there long enough it'll automatically drag you down. So I stood there and when I died, everytime I got up I died again and again as people boosted off me. Notice my screen as I get up im at 0.5 again and I die instantly. You can see my screen keep blacking out lol. For people who are lost, I will post 2 videos showing you exactly what I mean, as I know my explanation probably sounds messed up.

oooh. Poor Roxas 0:

lol Goten. You actually outdid the rest of the reporting threads. With a video. Admins have to do something now.

okay looking at the videos thats a serious bug, im hoping staff will go and reset those players who gained those scores and appear in that video.

41 people with over 1k kills now. If you see this, I'm sorry Roxas but this is bull**** I won't stand for.

what time did this start gmt time?

Not positive but I noticed a massive amount of people with ridiculous amounts of kills when I first checked leaderboard at around 2 pm est. I heard all day though. Roxas has 7,000 kills nearly from this.

lol Goten. Will all of Roxas kills get reset? :0

I think all kills for the day should be reset unless someone has a better suggestion that will get everyone who got over 100 kills off this there kills removed for today. Yes this will take out innocent players who had nothing to do with this but how will they be able to tell who did and who didn't? I got 1200 kills off sardon today so out of all players I will probably be taking the biggest hit. If it's to get everyone who participated in this there kills gone from this boost fest then it's worth it to me.

I may have accidentally started this o.o but i had no idea people boosted from this.

I kept reloading the leaderboard and noticing people's kills going up by 5's in just one second. I was like no swamp riot could be this crazy so I went to check myself, walked in and noticed my screen flash like 15 times when I died in the middle. That pretty much explained it. Some may not have known because a friend of mine said his screen didn't flash at all. I think his iDevice just couldn't keep up with it cause it was happening so fast. Seriously though just a complete reset of pks earned today by everyone seems to be the easiest way to fix this.

I was walking through swamp and thought it would be a good place to clog up and then pk everyone trying to get through. Surprisingly a ton of people came by and gave me some pks. After a couple minutes i realized i had like 50 pks, which is too high for like 2 minutes with 5 people there. Then i logged off and like 12 hours later theres 100 people there pking each other for no obvious reason.

Everyone in the guild "13" at the very least deserves a punishment. The whole guild was there boosting like crazy.

Ikr. They had 2 people in it to start out and now theres like 11. every one in 13 has atleast 1000 pks today.

It's still going on as we speak. Not as crazy though.
