Just came back after years, what is going on?

[thexcodec]

So there is now a law suit and selling keys.

So few questions:
1) The law suit is a year old, is it still going on or did we win or lose, what is going on?
2) What happened to all the custom user content?

There is a lot in german and I can't tell what is new and what is old. I figured It would be easier to get a straight answer this way.

"get a straight answer" about what has happened in the last YEAR? lol

 

[thexcodec]

Well
1) Yes law suit is still going on (current progress)
2) No law suit is no longer going on (we won, we lost)

 

[Cukie]

Well
1) Yes law suit is still going on (current progress) <~~~~~~still ongoing. OwnedCore - World of Warcraft Exploits, Hacks, Bots and Guides - Honorbuddy district court Hamburg 28th February 2012 has decent info for the layman's
2) No law suit is no longer going on (we won, we lost)<~~~~if they lost, do you think you would be able to post here?

 

[thexcodec]

well just because they lost it can still take time to fully shut down things.

Everyone says it'll be in legal limbo for a couple years. Most things are built into the bot, and if it's customizable many people prefer to keep their profiles private since there are so many HB bots out there now. There are lots of public GB2 profiles, Singular CC is actually becoming quite good as a reliable standby for most classes, lots of other CCs too. Most developers use SVN so everyone can update more easily. Grinding often results in a ban so questing/archaeology is the way to go (Kickazz [A/H] and/or Azenius Project[H] have questing profiles 1-85). Many auto-reply/remote monitoring plug-ins, but still most bans come from player reports (it seems).

I'm sure I left a lot out but those are things I can think of right now.

Is there a way honorbuddy could be operated offline so if honorbuddy gets shutdown we could still get user updates, in case they lose the lawsuit?

 

[thexcodec]

I suppose if the law suit went through it prob could be.

But for now it will have to stay like this other wise it is to easy to *****.
