i doubt the average trail knows how to change their computer ID

in six months this game will be a grave yard or just oldbies

Or celebrate its 10th birthday

Notice how Stefan avoids the topic of Graal being extremely hackable.

Viper, etc. will do a lot to make that change if it's made so that trials can get a bunch more free play time by doing so.

Im not a computer expert. Now, if you asked someone from a company such as AW, they could easily find a way to prevent this.

I highly doubt it. Highly. They would have to store an unalterable, unremovable piece of data on your computer. Just where, exactly, would they be able to store such a thing?

Reading is always a good thing.

Or perhaps a better computer id system. Use mobo serial, harddrive serial, bios checksum: anything but use a massive combination so it's alot harder to screw with it. To help prevent reverse engineering, RC shouldn't show the exact pcid the client uses.

I'm supposed to just not tell you why you're wrong because you're not an "expert"?

As Zim said, how many people could actually find a way past that?
The answer? Not many...

I think you are over-rating the average Graalian's intellect.

Also, im not wrong. I cant be wrong if all I did was suggest an idea. Alot of people would not be able to find a way past that. Also computer experts, who know alot more about computers than me or yourself, could prevent you from "getting around" the 30 day trial system.

There are already programs that let you change your computer ID by pressing a button.

Which is why i've been asking for a new PCID method for some time. PC bans are worthless now

I was going to say the mac address, but that can be spoofed easily. Also, about the IP changer and computer ID changer, google it, I'm sure you will find alot of various 1-click programs that automatically change it.
