Sounds like we saw different videos.SeaGtGruff wrote: »Are you sure about that?

I have not seen that one. The one I saw at the top of this thread and was from a player/observer perspective.
That could be. I wouldn't know, because I didn't see the posted link before it got removed. The one I saw was 54 seconds long, and was made up of a bunch of short cuts from different videos, with at least one scene from Elden Root. I don't remember any scenes being recognizable as Vulkhel Guard, and it's pretty hard to mistake Elden Root as anything but Elden Root.

As I said, it was short-- 0:54-- and was a bunch of short scenes that had been cut together in what almost looked (IMO) like a commercial for a cheat program. So I guess what I saw wasn't from the incident this morning, although I suppose the implication was that the guy this morning was using that cheat program.
This isn't a simple cheat, script or bot, this "hacker" circumvented ZoS code which is crap in the first place.
In order for the game not to be hacked again ZoS would have to reencode the whole game code. Am I the only one that sees this?

That's kind of funny, actually.
Cheater accounts get put into stocks in the public square for XX amount of time.
The timer only runs when they're actually logged into game.
I'm thinking 2 weeks logged in time sounds about right to start.
Instead of banning a toon/account, have the toon be forced to be in a public stockade, naked, where we all can toss mud pies at him for an entire month. Have a sign above him which explains what he did, such as exploit, cheat, etc.

Can't have blatant cheaters feelings get hurt.

Yeah, because ZOS's rules of behavior by default must apply to them as well, or the sky falls. o.O.

Yeah, because if ZOS engaged in naming and shaming, but then disciplined a player for naming and shaming, the players would never shut up about how ZOS disciplines players for doing something they themselves do. Just sayin'.

Hello there,
Are you also aware of the other situation related to unjust ban of a fellow player? Anyone investigating that too? A lot of players are upset about that guy getting banned because of Zenimax's autoreply community care system.
Thank you for your time.

In other Games That Shall Not Be Named, I remember zombie attacks, alien invasions, demon invasions, etc, where the skies would change color and the large scale events would happen for a short time. You could either participate or hide indoors until they passed. They felt so dynamic and fun 🙂
