If I had to come in on my day off on a holiday weekend over something like this I guarantee you those responsible would never play this game again.
the best part is ZOS can actually call the Justice Department and report this because hacking any software is a federal offense, a felony to be exact, and those doing this you can be incarcerated for it. ZOS could easily pursue criminal charges over this on top of sueing those responsible
Yup, Computer Fraud and Abuse Act is very broad..if your reading this and been doing this I hope you like that sinking feeling you feel in your stomach, you have caused harm to this company, they could pursue charges against you, a criminal record that will follow you the rest of your life if ever try to get a job, and they may sue you to boot. This of course after you get out jail.
If they don't pursue this consider yourself lucky....wow the fact folks would do something as malicious as this is a shame, ZOS hadn't been perfect but they don't deserve this BS. I hope they do pursue it,folks have no right to do this...none.
Well if it is indeed a federal crime , I can share from personal experience of family members what they can expect .
1. Shower shoes
2. Tennis lessons (don't cheat though , they take that serious)
3. A wide variety of assorted candies at the commissary
4. Puffs lubricated tissues to cry into on visiting day
5. Warmer cotton bedsheets
6. Premium cable channels and limited internet access
7. Sing alongs in the work shops
8. Access to law books and education
Being in the slammer in N. America is pretty laid back. You get fed, are given the opportunity to shower and clean yourself, are given access to both Internet and cable, get rec' time, etc. You just gotta mainly watch out for those who wish to do you harm (both officers and inmates alike). You'll also have to be mindful of which ethnicity you align yourself with, and be cautious of gangs. BUT! If you mind your P's and Q's, you'll be straight in the slammer. Just mind your business, keep a low profile, and you'll be aight.
But back on topic, I highly doubt Zenimax would take legal action against some petty hackers/exploiters of a MMO. Lol. They'd be more likely to take legal action against DDOS'ers than people using hacks to gain an edge in PVE and PVP. I'm just saying.
My Dad always said , "Son , if you ever do a crime , make sure it's federal." "Also , tell your Mom I need $200 on my books." As he left in more chains then Ghost Rider ...
Lmao. Damn.
But, he wasn't lying. They take good care of you up in The Feds. They may remove your ability to receive mail (if you're dangerous enough), but it's not as wild as when you're in non-federal incarceration. Why? Because the level/scale of inmates are far more mature and sophisticated for the petty bs that happens in The County. Plus you have to remember — it's the "Big Leagues". It's where all the "Big Boys" and "Big Fish" play. 
It's where the Molag Kenas and Nerien'ths are detained. Where the Scathing Mages hang out, compared to the Julianos mages.
But yeah, I highly doubt any legal action will be taken by ZOS. I doubt it strongly, comrade.
Yeah . I don't see that happening here either . An I don't want my tax money wasted on locking away video game cheaters . I mean "alleged" video game cheaters . I would like them removed so I can go back to having fun .0 -

It's called a hack which isn't hacking, a hack changes the code of something to work a certain way it does not circumnavigate any security or break any laws and as it's not an exploit it may take some ingenuity from Zos to resolve this.
Essentially it's like a mod so there is no criminal activity involved although wasting people's time should be made an offence.I went outside once, the graphics were awesome but the gameplay sucked0 -

Call them out, we all should if we have video... stand up for what should be a great game and great PvP. ZoS should pick a side and decide what is more important... naming and shaming or an exploit that makes Overwatch look extremely appealing.
Yo I would love to call them out but that just gets posts removed and reduces visibility of the problem to the community. There's plenty of other ways to find out who's abusing the system. If people want to know they can PM me and I will gladly fork over every name I've seen do it so far. But lets keep names out of this post so we can have a discussion w/o zos nuking it.
Sending you a PM - we want the names.
Make sure to report all of these people. Including the ones exposed on this locked thread.
