cheating

[--Pete]

Hi,

Since the game has tainted shrines built in to the code couldn´t your computer send the information that you hit a tainted shrine repeatedly until you´d completely washed out the other person´s stats? Of course you might bump into wrap around problems if you dropped them to 0 but you could stop right before that.

Not sure how it would work. Diablo is peer to peer, so every player is running the game on his own machine. So, if someone is repeatedly sending the Tainted Shrine info, but the other players' machines don't have those shrines, it seems that a massive de-sync would ensue. Interesting question.
