It is literally just impossible to sift through that many reports without a workforce of say 20k+ imo. That doesn't mean 20k GMs but 20k total employees that is split up into different jobs i.e. programmers, GMs, new content ideas, etc...
no, but the GMs should have some filters on reports. I dont know if they do, but if not thats kind of dumb. If there were 15 people reported 30 tiems each today in Himes for hacking, by different people with different ips, dont you think they should go swing by himes first? On top of that, they really need to work on making players happy, which includes showing that they are taking care of the things that matter to the players. When 2 GMs log into khaini, and spend 20 min in FM banning chat botters, but leave HT hackers, WS hackers, and Hime hackers alone, it kinda makes me angry. The ACers in FM piss off any merchant, but rarely do you see those banned, the meso sellers in FM are just annoying, but dont really affect me as much as the hackers in WS or himes, or other popular training areas. HT hackers are somewhat ruining the economy at the same time.
The main problem comes down to manpower. For most of the holiday season it seemed as if GMs were nonexistant. Now there are a few GMs, but it seems like its the same 3 or so people, and they just log into different servers. They really need 3+ GMs per server.
And yeah, i would really like the mass bannings being put into notices again. I remember when hackers actually tried to hide from people, so they wouldnt get reported. Now, they just train in popular areas, and expect the same rights as any other player.
And they really need to get rid of the autoban. In the beginning it was a good idea, but once hackers learned about it, its more or less an inconvenience while the original designers of the hacks figure out how to go undetected. It stalls them for very little time since they just make new accounts and recode the hacks. More often then not, the people it inconveniences most are legits who get caught in glitches.
