And R* makes changes on a general scale that will trip up an unsuspecting player too.

 

I've got over 30 super cars in my garages. Imagine if I fancied a change and sold the lot this afternoon to buy more muscle cars or something. 

 

How long would I last, lol.

But we all know you wouldn't want to do that.

Do you report griefers also? They are, after all, ruining the game for other players much more than dupers. Well, dupers don't actually ruin the game at all for other players.

 

Yes, I do and yes they do. 

[roggek]

The simplest solution is to remove the "whole carcass sold to the butcher" feature, and let everybody skin anything on site...

Make more job for the griefers and they would be tired pretty soon...

I posted earlier that it shouldn’t be that hard to find the players selling the dupes.  Selling 1-2 cougars an hour seems legit,  selling 20 every minute should raise some flags.  A company like R* needs to find a way to detect that and have a quality system in place.

I've noticed that when I try to sell a bunch of herbs after selling around 40 of them I can't sell any more. If I back out of it and go back in I can sell another one but not a second one. I'm guessing this is something to stop me duping herbs and selling them so it slows me down. 

Yeah that's what it is, to prevent you from duping 25 cent herbs...lol. I can sell 100 a pop no problem.

I think there should be a cap of $1000 per real life day, that way hunters should be fine and dupers can only earn a limited amount 

 

It should be punished, just like commiting a crime in the game. Selling many perfect cougars in a far too short time possible should get the butcher suspicious and report you to Terminator lawmen. 

A short scene of your character getting arrested, jailed and released without any cash should follow. Back to $0.

That’s just a bandaid on the bullet wound. They get reset then back to where they were with the newest dupe glitch. What needs to happen is caught 1st time is 30 day suspended w/ complete character reset, “no cash, gold, weapons, set to rank 1”.  Caught again is permanent ban. If R* keeps letting this go it’ll be gta just in the old west.

That's why I suggested that the butcher should get a role in this. No matter what dupe glitch, it's the butcher that flags certain as impossible to sell as many times that fast by one account/person. Whatever your horse can carry can be sold in 1 sale, certain items no more than X times in Y time frame. If exceeded, flagged as theft and resorting to jail and money wiped. So, all the duping work is for nothing. 

Just make duping uninteresting and they will stop doing it.

Not when a lot of stuff is locked by rank.

Maybe so but if they get banned they won’t be around to care.

I report any griefing I experience (in game and in Rockstar bug or feedback) and block on PSN. I don't care about the dupers as long as they don't bother me and I don't feel they are ruining my game. As far as their duping supposedly screwing up the lobbies, I'll need more proof than forum board comments. These Rockstar servers have been screwed up since the beginning, way before the dupers started.

 

Besides, I'd feel a little hypocritical because though I don't dupe, I do play in glitched solo/passive lobbies, usually when I want to fish--which I wouldn't bother to do if Rockstar actually handled the griefers in the first place.

Lol dude this post blew your cover, it's obvious you're a troll.

R* could have seen this coming a mile off after half a decade of experience with GTAO; if they don't have a better solution than reactive patching then I can only assume that either there isn't a better solution or they don't care enough to find/implement one. In any case, reporting isn't worth my time, because I don't really care that much either. Would I prefer this stuff didn't happen? Sure. Has it ruined my experience in GTAO? No, so I'm just gonna assume the same will apply here.

Except that I didn't call anyone names....it's a fine line but if you take a minute to really understand what you're reading I'm sure you'll get it.

 

As for what you do and do not understand, I can't help you there.

 

If you're trying to just kind of reply to the topic in general, maybe don't start with a quote, because it seems like you're replying to me and I didn't say any of that stuff.

OK you can argue it's a fine line but it's so fine it may as well not be there.  To paraphase what you said, I'm not saying you're pathetic but if someone was doing what you are doing they would be pathetic, technically it's not a direct insult but the meaning is pretty clear.  (I apologise if English is not your first language.)

Just curious but what was duped?  There was nothing to buy it was just rp glitches. 

I might be wrong on the terminology, but by my understanding you could cause an npc near rathskeller fork to spawn an infinite number of times and the game could only keep track of so many assets/npcs.  So when you went to gang hideout there were no enemies to kill and it just auto completed.  There was also no wildlife in public sessions.

 

I think i'f you cleared your cache and went into a private session it was ok.

So it was just a coincidence that a recent cougar glitch was going on at the same time as all sessions being messed up and when they fixed the glitch the sessions went back to normal?

I don't know how long you've been playing but, as I remember, there have been various occasions, very early on, when sessions weren't running correctly. It happening now isn't the first time.

 

Servers with no animals, constant disconnects, etc., have been part of this game from Day One. Are you blaming that on dupers, too?

 

So, yeah, I'm saying it could be a coincidence.

 

Oh, and the glitch isn't fixed (I saw it yesterday evening) so, if things are running the way they should now, that's even more evidence that there is no or little connection between the two.

 

Let's face it, problems might be caused by Offensive/Defensive or even the new dynamic missions. We don't know for sure and I'm w-a-a-y passed believing something just because I read it on a forum board. Or from Rockstar either, actually. I don't find them to be the most truthful or forthcoming. Great game though.

I don't know if it was the glitch or not but people do them is more likely to make things go wrong for the rest of us.

But the line is there whether you like it or not. Honestly buddy just let it go the posts were deleted anyways. As for the language comment, you seem to be the only one having trouble with english.

Well said, you are exactly right. It's not as easy to track millions of players activities as some people seem to think.

I like that. Add in no guns (except for an unmodified Cattleman), no clothes except what you were wearing when jailed, and your stable is locked down until you pay the value of all the contents in your stable (slots, horses, tack) again (or $2500. Whichever comes first).

 

Oh, the wailing and gnashing of teeth that would occur. LOL

That was/is someone doin an rp glitch at twin rocks where you could stand in a certain spot and complete the hideout every few sec.  there was animals in online just nothing to do with them except kill a few for rp challenges.
