I'm curious since I've only been playing on Nasomi for about a month, and it's made clear that any kind of botting/cheating/addons/exploits are against the rules and will be harshly punished or you'll be banned. Heck you can even have two characters HELMing at the same time, because it would be an advantage, but people were knowingly duping items in the past and that won't be a huge advantage?

Is it just a different era on the server now where the rules are this severe and it was more laid back in the past? There is obviously tons of talk and admittance to exploiting, cheating, questionable actions, and everything in this thread. I guess my question is, is it a time thing that made it okay for these people to do these things, or is it a fame or "these guys have been around forever" kind of thing so they're allowed to break the rules?

Who wouldn't try to capitalize on that? The players with the highest playtime on the server who have everything already? Yeah, I would probably want to play fair after obtaining everything the easy way, too. The fact that you guys are so insanely obsessed with tarnishing others images while trying to appear squeaky clean is questionable at best.

I love it. This is exactly what people on this server say when they exploit something. I dont think this whole khroma ore situation is worthy of what's been said in this thread. As in, I do not think you cheated or exploited in any way, shape, or form in regards to khroma ore. But this is literally the excuse all the old people's least favorite LS always used in regards to exploiting, so it's quite funny to hear you say it. Especially if it's followed by a relapse of your linkshell back into regular mordion appearances.

Who’s not surprised by his answer....

...TopShelf told Nas to roll back all your ZNM gear, do the gilpocalypse and nerf Fishing/RNG into the ground.
