New Sub Forum

We Need a new sub forum set to private, the only way you can read it is to be set in a certain group by a mod. All the leet hacks would be posted there that the community does not want shared to the public.

Qualification for the Group would be
300+ Posts.
20+ Thanks

or

Referral by a highly trusted member.

These probably will be changed, just some ideas I had for it. If we had this the items commands would probably not have been leaked for a while. Im also glad they didn't ban me :|

That's actually a good idea. The fact that the item creation hack was leaked into public eyes and abused to the point the Nexon did emergency maintenance during one work day speaks volumes about the need for some things to not be tossed about.

or no post requirement just the Thanks requirement or a referral

last thing u want are trolls spamming the forums trying to get the post count

maybe even a vip/donators spot ?

Good idea!
( Starts upping post count )

well the problem is it's a system that betrays itself

if u want thanks and posts u have to give ppl hacks. you get more thanks if its a hack noone knows about which at the same time are the same hacks you don't want the public to know.

the easiest way to get thanks is to dig up some posts and compile them into your own tutorial on how to do the hacks which makes it easier for the mindless leechers who you were trying to prevent from using the hacks in the 1st place.

so the whole idea of trying to get thanks and posts is counter productive towards protecting hacks by keeping them low profile.

The issue with this is that even hackers themselves would abuse this command for profit. Like people seeing others selling 10 pieces of a certain high level armor. Etc. The fact is, it still would have eventually to be found. Also people always leak the commands out. Same like Redrage's hfs compiler/decompiler. Was in another forum's private forums. The private forums were onyl allowed access to modders and donators. What do we see now? People posting it on other forums and such.

Wow,you read my mind exactly what I was thinking there should be a VIP section for codes like this that only those who are members can view

a good idea in theory, but it'd encourage spamming to raise postcounts, not to mention someone could just create alternate accounts to thank his own posts

raising the minimum further encourages spamming.

you don't need 50 accounts. all you would need is one alternate account to thank each of the main account's fifty posts.

you probably wouldn't see them in the VIP section because if that's where the hacks were posted, all they would have to do is read and download without having to post in there.

Posting requirements sucks, probably just a referral system would be best.
On all the forums I've been on, I hate to post because most of it would be meaningless spam anyways.

If you want proof of concept, look at HD's console threads. pretty much all of the posts except for the original post made by him is spam shit with people begging/raging/flaming about how they can't get the password.
