Just check ME forums. In short, Nuke abused the attack bug to kill me, and I think someone else then went on vacation. This being my second time being killed by an attack bug was annoyed, nobody seemed to care that he cheated and nothing happened. so abusing bugs at ME now goes unpunished and that is what I learned. Now back to this topic... Stats anyone?

Wait, is this a fixed bug or not?

He's talking about a bug in ME, not FAF.

Similar code = could be here.

It happened after Turock messed with the max attack limit. If we haven't messed with it, I don't think we will have the bug. But as far as I know, it still is not fixed. He thought it was, but it keeps showing up.

Turock and me had been discussing the incessant whining on the ME forums and he said he had handed out some permabans to try to stop it. (bear in mind he's repeatedly said that he's leaning towards pulling the plug on ME since he's tired of the B.S. Anyway I posted this:

Nuke wrote:I was gonna figure out the occasional hit limit bug and exploit it to stop the forum bitching. Just tell everyone that anyone who continues the bitch fest dies the next day.

A day or 2 later this was posted:

Arthus wrote:Backed in a corner? your arguments are crap, and all you do is whine. But I guess I am a better person than you, which isn't saying much but whatever.

I posted after them warning that they were marked, and the next day Arthus was killed. I did test it out fairly well and was able to send Turock a rather thorough description of the bug, which presumably has since been fixed. You can read Arthus' comments on it in any of these threads: (note that none of them are the "bugs" thread)

Thread about us killing Borg Queen
Thread that's essentially made as a new place for the flame war between Carbz and Arthus
Thread about Borg killing some guy in a rival clan
Thread asking if ME saved high scores
Thread about BFR stats

EDIT: If I thought it was present at FAF Beatles would have been notified that day.

Yes, of course; I just was confused about what was actually happening and if you really did have anything to do with it, so I wasn't sure if FAF had addressed it.

Freeny, as you can see, Arthus said that only a n00b would be caught without a shield.

This is funny because yesterday or the day before I embezzled Arthus at Valhall and he has no shield.

Explained. ^^

Arty is no noob, he may have just forgot that day...

I don't have shields up *laughs*. Because I don't have an army or land half the time *laughs*. I think they are up now, 'cause I have quite a bit out. Dunno.

*laughs* Really? *laughs* I *laughs* usually *laughs* just *laughs* cast *laughs* one *laughs* that *laughs* lasts *laughs* the *laughs* entire *laughs* set *laughs* or *laughs* at *laughs* least *laughs* the *laughs* max *laughs* length *laughs* they *laughs* can *laughs* be *laughs* on *laughs* a *laughs* particular *laughs* game *laughs*.
