Golden Dubloon "blocked"

Sat Dec 18, 2004 2:09 pm

I don't know if this is regular/normal, but I can't get into the Golden Dubloon at all; it's too full...

Right now the occupancy is 101/100 and has remained that way for a while. Last night it was at 129/100 and stayed that way until I went to sleep.

Is it possible that someone is filling the Golden Dubloon with junk accounts... I'm sure there's a way to 'spoof' it...

Why? Well it immeadiately occured to me that prolonged spoofing will affect the price of dubloons. Many people use the GD to reduce 2 Dubs to 1 Dubs...

Best solution in my opinion would be to
A. See if this is true
B. If A, then freeze the IPs
C. Like IDB does, kick out people after 5 mins or so.
D. Get rid of the occupancy limit.

As for letter C, doesn't the Golden Dubloon already do this?

Lastly, if you dawdle for over 15 minutes without scoffing yer food, Ill throw yer out without a warning!


So it's very odd that so many people try to get in, and somehow stay in (do they, or is it a constant supply of new people?)

I guess another option would be to either make the Golden Dubloon not give out change, or to artificially lower the price of One Dubloon Coins (giving them out more...)[/quote]

I was able to get in earlier... it was 99/100 occupancy.

Few mins later it was up to 149/100....

I definitely smell something fishy here... :x

Edit:

It does seem that the numbers change "regularly" and I wouldn't be surprised if they're changed just short of every 15 mins...
