From FM merchants that try to extort mesos to people who are just jealous they weren't invited. However, our last held run we made it all the way to PB with 22min remaining w/out any d/c problems because we kept it so secretive and made sure nobody talked about it to anyone. Not even in their own guilds. We only had a couple people who had trouble due to vista/win7 and the autobanning problem has yet to effect us. The only problem on our run was a mistake on the leaders part before the run even started that hindered us from being able to test our real experiment out during the last phase.
Even though we're now ready to retest it, we've lost alot of people who have quit/hacked/wrongly banned. PB is completely killable even with vista/win7 problems and D/C hacks still around. Just have to know how to handle each problem..
Have you ever tried going after the evan patch? That's when it started getting really bad for vista/win7 users. I don't think anyone had a problem with pink bean before that patch.
Anyways, I know that scania and broa are much worse off than other servers in terms of the dc hacker problem, but this really isn't something that Nexon should expect us to overcome on our own, same with the OS compatibility issues. In fact, all three of the problems I listed are totally Nexon's fault, given that dc hacks have been around for years, a lot of people have moved on from windows XP in the past few years, and the autobans really never should have happened in the first place, not sure what first caused those to happen. Honestly, over half of PB's difficulty comes from Nexon itself. By the way, I don't think you should try running until the autoban issues have been resolved so that nobody's account would be in jeopardy, or at least try to make sure nobody touches pink bean at all, since that's what triggered the autoban.
