People are confused about the actual scope of what they're allowed to do. It's fairly simple. It is not your job to test the bugs. It is your responsibility to report the bugs. Don't confuse the two or you will simply get yourself into a trouble. You don't want to report bugs, then don't. It's as simple as that. However, if you start testing bugs, trying to reproduce them, then you are opening yourself up to getting banned because you are going outside of the scope of what you, as a user, are allowed to do. Let's say you found a bug that dupes chips. The first time was an accident, but you just want to nail it down how it is done, so you do it again. Well, it was slightly different the second time, so you don't really have a clear idea of how you did it, so you do it a third time and find out exactly how it is done. You're now guilty of duping chips and can be banned for doing so. The difference of them testing for bugs and you testing for bugs is that they are in a controlled environment that has no effect on the live server. Everything you do has an effect within the live environment, which is precisely what they're trying to avoid/limit. If you absolutely have to play with bugs, then do it on the test server and submit bug reports constantly, since that is what it is there for. |

Was the ban implemented before/during/after the action? Did you learn of it, repeat it then report it or were you in the middle of the act when you were banned?

To the people saying he was exploting when he sold to the vendor. There is only afew ways to tell if his newfound dupe was client-sided or server-sided and it wouldv had to been trading,selling, or crafting items using those items. So all he did was choose one of the 3 that was the quickest which was selling. I think that once he reported a dupe, the gms temp banned his account from disallowing him to do anything else while they investigated the matter to avoid a rollback from someone buying all the ah stuff etc etc.
