Would be kinda nice to know what happened with the logging on issue?
(We all know it was that Gold VK Hacker Group) but still, I wish ZOS would tell us what happened, because that was random.

Bonzodog01✭✭✭✭✭I'm thinking it was DDos'd. I'm not sure of this, but it seems MS opened fire on the gold sellers on the XB EU server first (banning entire consoles I reckon) even though I still am seeing them.
I suspect we have a couple of pro-active people on the XB EU server who are making sure the reports of the GT's are going directly to MS EU. Its also more than possible that an MS EU Xbox team member has been playing the game and went into mod mode when the gold sellers popped up. So, the gold sellers DDos'd the server. DDos bot rings are very easy to come by these days, and there are places where you go and hire the C&C for a few hours.
MS have their EU HQ in Dublin, Ireland.Xbox One - EU - EP/DCTrying and failing to hold the walls of his Templar house up since 20150 -

✭✭✭✭✭I wonder if there's any sort of "Gold Seller Mafia"? For example, can they threaten guilds if they don't get their "protection" money quick enough? Do they order hits on rival sellers?"If a person is truly desirous of something, perhaps being set on fire does not seem so bad."0 -

Don't put ideas in their heads. It was probably ZOS incompetence.Even on the internet, clear communication is important; it can be the difference between "helping your Uncle Jack off a horse" and "helping your uncle jack off a horse"; the difference between "knowing your s***" and "knowing you're s***".

Can't go into a region without them popping up, I've heard that whole guilds are reporting them on mass. Don't know how they can still operate with that many bans0 -

✭✭✭✭This isn't the first time a server has been held hostage as a result of Actions being taken against gold sellers...
All those GMs banning bots and such and then this as a retaliation. It got way out of hand how much ZoS allowed after the last time, hope they don't let it get worse lol0 -

I can’t keep up with reporting them. Would be nice if GM’s would lurk zone chat more often and nuke them where they stand.

That is the issue. They need full time GM's in the game like real mmo's used to do back in the day and banned people on the spot for stuff like this. Now it's gotten so far out of control that some nobody can hold a major game company hostage. Unbelievable but it's Zos fault from the start. You reap what you sow......Edited by LadyDestiny on November 10, 2017 11:35AM0 -
magicsprout✭✭✭Lots of anti bot proactive people on xbox eu who constantly report both to ms and zeni. As well as troll bot trains when we see them0

GM's should start actually spending some time in their game. In Cyrodiil to spot these obvious cheaters, and especially on the "noob islands" and slay the s**t out of these Chinese bots, and in cities like Craglorn, Mournhold etc. and see these zone chat spammers. Dealing with it through us, really isn't a good solution.0 -

✭It might be some concpiracy going on , i suppose the gold and account sellers are part of the Zo$ company and thay provide additional income for them . Just think about it , why thay are left at peace for so many years . No GMs online , no bans .. nothing . In some MMOS like the good old Mu Online the cheaters and rule breakers were IP and MAC banned and also thay have been desplayed in the web site in the Wall of shame section.0
