It's why people get disconnected for the "Hack" reason. Their clients spammed the server with packets because once their connection resumed, they all got sent at once. There's really nothing that can be done to fix that. It's simply how the internet works.

While clients may have a legitimate reason to spam packets to the server due to lag, there's no reason for the server to repeat what it receives (i.e. the spam) to other clients to cause the DC. Pretty much every single DC method out there relies on the fact that the server would gladly send out whatever illegit packets it receives.

You wanna send a spouse chat to someone even though they aren't married? Sure why not.
You wanna send an expedition invite to someone who's already in an expedition? Go right ahead.

How about some sanity checks Nexon? Every other game out there does it. The first rule of the client/server model is NEVER TRUST THE CLIENT.
