*Blink*Blink*

All my items vanished too. Of course this is far less spectacular when you realise that I had no items.

And, uh, for once it seems "any day now" means "any day now."

Lol, when I first saw it I thought it was a new Whirlwind animation

Hilarious. A warning for the elite hackers to sell off their junk to poor l'il lamers who don't know any better. :S

I'd like to know if the warning serves any GOOD purpose?

I figured it meant that the ruststorm already came.

If it is a warning, then that's just stupid. Of course, they be saving themselves the effort of deleting them, and hoping all the hackers panic and sell their 6 socketed windforces to Charsi.

Eh... just re-read the post on the Arreat Summit. I guess it's pretty obvious that it's a warning.

heh. it's cool little touches like this that remind me why i love Blizzard so much.

It'd be nice to hear how effective it turns out, although this is probably the least likely place to find people with first-hand experience. :)
I think I'll start peeking in on the bnet forum waiting for the explosion of people complaining about their "legit" ith items disappearing...


Ruststorm coming! - Ruvanal - 10-25-2003

The 1.10s beta patch had some of the items deletion code that will be used in the Rust Storm. Hopefully there is more or updated code than that for the final version since there were some of the 'test items' that I use in mods for testing parts of the game that did not get deleted off of the test characters. If what was in the 1.10s patch is all the code that is there then there are some of the hacked items that will not be getting deleted in the rust storm.


Ruststorm coming! - Wapptor - 10-25-2003

We actually can test it. Months ago, someone gave me an oculus ring (occy ring) and I've held onto it to see if it dissapears when 1.10 comes live. So if Rust Storm actually works, I'll be the first to tell you. And no, I have not been using the stupid ring.

Was that white items with lots of properties? I remember testing out some things, most of the time some modifiers (say +7 all skills) made the items get deleted, except if I used white items as base.

I'm pretty sure some magic items which couldn't even spawn with modifiers(like block recovery, I put that on 10 different items except shields) didn't get deleted either.

Maybe this shouldn't be discussed though..


Ruststorm coming! - Obi2Kenobi - 10-25-2003

Might not want to do that... Since if they really do ban the cheaters, you too will be banned.


Ruststorm coming! - ildon - 10-25-2003

I don't think they're going to ban people whose items are deleted, because not everyone with a dupe knows they have a dupe, and it is possible that some less experienced/knowledgable people traded for a hacked item without realizing/knowing it was hacked.


Ruststorm coming! - Archon_Wing - 10-25-2003

They'll probaly go after dupes too and there's no way for people to tell if their item is a dupe. The dupes should still be deleted, but you can't ban people for that.

Oh yea, quit jacking my tar! :P
