Gambet is on a distinguished road
To begin with, it's not a bug, and it's not a glitch. What many of the high level players have done is that they have found a loop hole in the system and they have been abusing it to their advantage. Although this is not a bug or a glitch, it is definitely abusing the system. The system was not designed to be used in such manners and thus this offense should be punishable. You should also keep in mind that this exploit is not anything new, it's been around for months/years and has been abused for the same amount of time. Another thing to keep in mind is that most/all current high level players (level 100+) have abused the system in some sort of way to achieve that level. In the past, many level bugs/glitches have been fixed, but I can't really think of a time where penalties were actually given to the players that abused these bugs/glitches. It seems GK is long overdue for a level drop, because the new players just cant enjoy GK anymore, when they are trying to level the legit way, but those that abused their ways to a high level constantly 'bully' them and make their stay on GK miserable.

Personally, I think this is something that should really be looked into. This particular exploit should have been looked into and fixed quite some time ago, but it seems that nothing has been done. If the GK staff can't think of any ways to fix this, then by all means ask me and I can come up with a few. There really is no reason to not look into this, as it is abuse of the system. This is not a bash at the current GK administration, but back when Jagen and Lance ran things, at least things got done and these sort of things got looked into.

It's not fair for the newer players to be 'bullied' and 'abused' by those that cheated their way to the top, and it's definitely not fun for the newer players either. You can't have a good server if you don't have some sort of balance, and such exploits throws things off balance. It would be wise to fix this problem and to also consider a possible global level cut (somewhere between 30 - 50% cut from the players current level), since I'm sure all high level players would plead the fifth if questioned.


NOTE: I can only post like once every eight hours or so, so if you have any questions based on the information I've stated, then it would be best to forum PM me rather then to ask me in this thread, but if you just have comments to post towards the information I've posted, then post right ahead.


Just letting you all know what I'm feeling.
