Pick up and serve yourself!?

Hi,

Since scanners read the contents of the memory image of the character file, there is no reason why they cannot copy any item from that file. Simply a matter of adding the appropriate code. And the code exists to do that, it is what is used to write items to item files in some of the backup programs.

So, yes it can easily be done. I've heard rumors that it has been done, but never checked it out myself. When I do play online, I either play with trusted friends or as a naked mage. So I have no real interest in what cheats are being used.
