Lately people started talking about a booze/narc bug that allowed you to get twice the rp compared to normal. According to some this bug has been out there for quite a time, but lately more and more people started using it.

It culminated today when people started telling omerta players how to use the bug, thus having a rapid growth of bug abusers. This caused the crew to notice it and quickly (compared to normal responce time) we saw alot of akills.

oh man bug abuse and lots get A killed...and some will quit the game leading to even less people playing....

Seems a counteractive measure and a bit harsh, how about ...

1) no RP / money type bugs to start with?
2) as a developer i understand this could be unavoidable at times, but a less harsh punishment?
e.g remove half their money, vehicles and bullets and drop them 2 ranks?
3) make public annoucements of any bugs you've found and the punishment if people exploit it?
(then they cant play ignorant and if they still abuse the bug then fair enough A kill them).

I dont want the admins pushing away decent players and making them retire unles completely unavoidable...

Funny that people which are in front of the RP abusers are still alive ^^

This. All or nothing, surely. No way it's possible to outrank people who are using a bug that lets them get double b/n every hour.

I bet they made a deal with admins explaining the bug in exchange of survival :x

right...

[23:21:58] <+Fuerte> never noticed getting any rp from it

then why would you even buy 1 less each hour and then hire b/n lackeys, just to fire them a bit later?
I didn't buy 1 less, full amounts all the time. Might have gotten extra rp from that, dunno, but I never noticed it. I did use lackeys to do a extra smuggling run every hour for extra cash, but that's not what these akills are for according to admins, although you could call that bug abuse *shrugs

Thanks. You spare me the pondering why that 1 extra b/n every time would matter at all in the coding. There doesn't seem to be any reasonable explanation for that.

Also: interesting to see who got akilled. Birader? Really? Mmm? Someone high in Lucchese, again?

Doesn't say a lot. If birader was the only jannisary to get caught, then he's just a solo cheater. Next to that, mmm is a Lucchese member, not a top.

double rp = 32 rp extra each hour

doing 1k busts = 100 rp extra each hour

doing 1k in a hour is still hard at this time, I'm getting 700 myself, but that's still plenty to become #1.

at brug/cd rank I was unable to outbust abusers last version, but before that it's pretty easy :)

Lackey=Script, just because its legal doesn't change the truth about it. So in your logic everyone should get an akill? dumbfuck

it's possible the coding said if ($boozedone!=$maxrpthisrank) getrp() (from previous versions where you would still get rp if you did all but 1 booze/narcs. it's been changed since then)

Sad to see players already calling themselves retired...Do you really have to cheat to play this game? It's simple, play the game fair and you wont get akilled.
