I’ve just read this in the Camelot times inside scoop on the whole sorry affair
It reads like this
At 2.14 yesterday constable paddy biehbien of the **** local community Enforcement force noticed a large cow climbing the walls of the keep on Caledonia island.
On following the suspect into the courtyard constable beibhien noticed the cow standing by several large catupults that had obviously been fired.
Constable biebhien asked the cow did you just fire that the cow responded ‘nien i was only observing’ in a strong German accent at the same tIme constable biebhien noticed the cow Had a catupult pin in his hooves and decideD she had enough evidence to arrest the suspect on charges of general fectwittery and being dumb.
It later the transpired that the cow was a notorious Zerg leader from mag mell that answers to the name of Herorius .
Since his arrest there have been many protests and public interventions from noted Human rights activists including solic from Hibernia and muylae from Midgard who printed an esteemed defence that included mentions of nazi oppression and freedom of speech quotes.
At this moment in time the cow is being held in bentswords maximun security prison but is expected to be let out tommorrow on bail.

He was using an exploit which is against the ToS. Why more players weren't suspended is questionable but likely to avoid them from unsubscribing. Hence my earlier statement.
Exactly, even if they weren't on the catapults they were still making realm points.

Solic you like a lot of people in this game think you know how I think I really don’t hate anyone in this game people make me angry sad bemused happy but I really don’t hate anyone in this game
I’ve fell out with quite a few but I don’t hold grudges or harbour hate now if your gonna ask me if I think Herorius is good for the game I will say no but I do think it is very funny that he has been banned for cheating and people are saying he is innocent when broadsword have found him guilty Just very amusing.
You do have an obsession for Herorius than anyone else in this game. Every post I've seen on these boards is complaining about the clown zerg aka Herorius.

I haven't played on live for over 7 months so you can count me out of the human rights thing for Hibernia. I play on other games that are worth playing and are fair on their bans.
Oh dear I’m sorry I have upset you solic I didn’t realise you were so sensitive but if you would just like me to put my arm around you and hug you better would that be ok sweetie.
And well done on finding another game that gives you life fulfilment.
As for for the clown Zerg being clowns well the chief clown has kinda proved that by cheating don’t you think.
I’m glad you have responded solic because I think this thread is turning into the funniest thread since the David Koresh natebruner debacle.
It’s a thread that just keeps giving.
Brut im on your side we need a massive investigation done by BS. Stop all other actions to look into this, pause any patch work! This was a virtual incident that effected REAL lives! I think we need to take this a step further than u suggested and include REAL life punishment. He ruined some people afternoons, i say he deserves the same!
The game allowed him to catapult inside the keep and then got him banned? LOL funny as hell...how about all the other players who been cheating all the time are they getting banned also? Wow , kinda silly tbh all they had to was stop the catapult every time he would place it down and or give it a warn about not to place it catapults lol BS.
I wasn't suspended for cheating ... .. you don't even know what cheating is.
Cheating is to take advantage of third-party programs to gain an advantage in the game, from the simple macro for crafting, to the boost for velox, to radar.
What we used is a game bug, that's all.
Please, I say it for Your sake, don't drink so much beer on Friday night and write the worst things.
Maybe Hero talked to CSR's, or whatever they are called now, in tells and told them he was the one that lead everyone up to that point to use the cata's. If this is the case, Hero did what good leaders do "take one for the team" for something that all the people in the BG did not think all the way through.
Hey don’t shoot the messenger I’m only printing the facts from the Camelot times
Fact one a large cow was seen climbing into the
Keep
Fact two
Constable paddy biebhien observed the same cow standing by several catapults that had just been fired
Fact three the said cow had a guilty look on his face and a large catupult firing pin in his hoof.
Fact three
When questioned and asked if he had fired the pults the cow replied in a German accent
Nien I was only observing!
Constable biehbien had no choice but to throw him in the slammer.
Now questions have to be asked was constable biehbien drunk And did she mistake the 6 ft German cow for the red headed lurikeen also spotted at the scene we will never know what occurred that dark day but something serious occurred the cow was banned and has now been declared a cheat.
There seems to be a cover up going on here with parallels to the Epstein case what else has this cow been up to It gets murkier and murkier a dark day for DAoC Indeed.
Is 3 days a long enough ban human rights activists like solic and muylae say no and claim it’s just because of who he is and that he is above the law.
I say 3 years for the severity of the crime and the blatant cheating He carried out makes much more sense on the principle that no cow is above the law but it’s for you the jury to decide I rest my case !

"Is this what the developers intended?" Think about that for a second before you pass judgement.
You've got a battleground/arena with only one way in. If you set up a barrage of siege aimed at the only place Alb players can port in with ZERO recourse to defend themselves (resulting in their immediate death) - this is exploiting. You can blame the developers all you want for not imagining every scenario where we, the players, could take advantage of a given situation... but think about what that would require? That's why the bolded text above is so important to consider before you do something egregious that falls outside of normal gameplay.
Rule 16 under Prohibited Conduct states that players shall not "Engage in any behavior that is contrary to the 'spirit of the game' as defined by Broadsword in its sole discretion." This rule exists for situations like the one in Caledonia where developers were not able to predict this exact kind of interruption of gameplay. I would have to imagine intent is something they look at to determine what kind of punishment is due. It makes sense to me that other players were given a slap on the wrist where the BG leader, who ran the BG up the hill and told people to drop siege, gets a more severe punishment.
Last thing - To those who shout that Broadsword lets cheaters slide (especially players who think IRC cheats), this should be a wake-up call for you. They suspended their #1 top RP earner (methods aside) with a HUGE following; a much LARGER risk than actioning just one account of a player who can easily resub/gain high RR immediately.
How soon people forget. This is not his first suspension. He got a 3 day for exploiting into intact inner keeps. There was video. He should have gotten more than 3 days for a second offense. And yes, the others should have received something as well.

3 day suspension for a repeat offender. Yup they REALLY play it serious and don't play favorites.
@Ramik nice plug, are you paid by Broadsword? you seem to do more Excuses/PR for the game than they do :P
Nope. I've been critical of Broadsword in the past when I've disagreed with them (especially around macro teams before they addressed it). They've done the right thing when it comes to people ACTUALLY exploiting.

i would call this bullshit.
people have been using catapults since the first year of daoc in similar situations. and noone ever got a suspension for it. it was common in old frontiers (at least on my server) it has been done in nf and bg's since ... do people remember Slampig ?
Slampigs actions resulted in BS moving the release place in NF from the border keeps to other places first in NF and later at the relic towns.
and even after the move from the release spot at the border keeps to crim / berk / nott, and later to the to the relic towns, in the aftermath of some relic raids, people have attacked the people in the relic towns with no consequence.
but now ... bored hibs shot a few catapults at the PK and herorius and some other hibs climbed the walls of the pk (why the **** can you climb those walls in the first place ?) and herorius got a 3 day suspension ??? i don't agree.

I have to say that Muylae is right on this. I remember Slampig and his buddies never getting suspended for putting catapults down on the hill near the PKs and he constantly did it but Broadsword did nothing then, so the rules seem very inconsistent to me. But if they are going to be stricter about cheating/exploiting then that's great but still think it's broadsword fault for not implementing something to stop players from catapulting PKs after how many Caledonia events?
You all act like you know the whole story. BS has bent over backwards to work with people, to avoid bans and suspensions. There is more here then anyone really knows. It is all speculation
And, iirc, they started banning for the catapults along time ago. Maybe it wasn't slampig, but someone def got banned for it.
Well I have to agree with ramik broadsword have shown that they will not tolerate cheating and have banned a guy who cheats end of story really don’t know what all the fuss is about if your told several times not to do something because it’s against the law and then you do it well that makes you Pretty dumb people can make all the excuses you want herorious is a cheat plain and simple if he wasn’t he would not have been banned.
Again I agree with ramik Broadsword are not going to ban someone who is so high profile unless he has done something really serious.
He’s a cheat been convicted of cheating and now must be forever tarnished with that label.
He is not the messiah he’s been a very naughty boy!

Hero is back to destroying the game with his zerg, breaking ports and destroying action. Guess he couldnt handle smallman/8man. I knew this would happen, but was hoping he would see how much better the game was when he was banned.

Yet, Anna and Gav and Ramik, et al are exempt from your contempt. Why is that?
You are making a BIG swing on this one. Ramik, runs zergs BUT he also has zergs to fight against. If he doesn't the US hibs log or break off into smaller groups or change realms. Gav as far as I can tell 8mans. Anna is the only direct competition to Heros numbers and they pale in comparison 90% of the time.
Why this needs to be explained to you over and over is beyond me. I get that you just came back and are getting up to speed again with Hero BUT that doesn't change the fact that Hero when he is zerging drains the populations and destroys action. It's a fact, not an opinion. He will run nonstop despite there being no defenders or population to oppose him. Reason is most of the server will log Hib when he runs.
A Zerg of bunnies is a Fluffle. If there are a lot of Fluffles and then they collide, it is fun for the Fluffs but if there isn't a lot of Fluffles then the Fluffles attack anything that they can find and for the non-Fluffles it isn't very fun regardless of who is the Lead Fluff. Does that make it clearer ?

I thought you got this just subbing to daoc?
It reads like this
At 2.14 yesterday constable paddy biehbien of the **** local community Enforcement force noticed a large cow climbing the walls of the keep on Caledonia island.
On following the suspect into the courtyard constable beibhien noticed the cow standing by several large catupults that had obviously been fired.
Constable biebhien asked the cow did you just fire that the cow responded ‘nien i was only observing’ in a strong German accent at the same tIme constable biebhien noticed the cow Had a catupult pin in his hooves and decideD she had enough evidence to arrest the suspect on charges of general fectwittery and being dumb.
It later the transpired that the cow was a notorious Zerg leader from mag mell that answers to the name of Herorius .
Since his arrest there have been many protests and public interventions from noted Human rights activists including solic from Hibernia and muylae from Midgard who printed an esteemed defence that included mentions of nazi oppression and freedom of speech quotes.
At this moment in time the cow is being held in bentswords maximun security prison but is expected to be let out tommorrow on bail.

I say 3 years for the severity of the crime and the blatant cheating He carried out makes much more sense on the principle that no cow is above the law but it’s for you the jury to decide I rest my case !
Brut lol, u are taking this a bit far mate but you really have a hard on for the cow. LOL!
And you Solic, appear to have a hard on for Brut's hard on for Herorius...
Not so much as Brut has for Herorius!
Solic would prefer if you mentioned him by his proper title, cow rights activist, not human rights.
This Hardon thing is starting to bring on a Bill Clinton Vibe, if ya know what I mean
You mentioned Epstein and that's a scandal in itself lol.
"Is this what the developers intended?" Think about that for a second before you pass judgement.
You've got a battleground/arena with only one way in. If you set up a barrage of siege aimed at the only place Alb players can port in with ZERO recourse to defend themselves (resulting in their immediate death) - this is exploiting. You can blame the developers all you want for not imagining every scenario where we, the players, could take advantage of a given situation... but think about what that would require? That's why the bolded text above is so important to consider before you do something egregious that falls outside of normal gameplay.
Rule 16 under Prohibited Conduct states that players shall not "Engage in any behavior that is contrary to the 'spirit of the game' as defined by Broadsword in its sole discretion." This rule exists for situations like the one in Caledonia where developers were not able to predict this exact kind of interruption of gameplay. I would have to imagine intent is something they look at to determine what kind of punishment is due. It makes sense to me that other players were given a slap on the wrist where the BG leader, who ran the BG up the hill and told people to drop siege, gets a more severe punishment.
Last thing - To those who shout that Broadsword lets cheaters slide (especially players who think IRC cheats), this should be a wake-up call for you. They suspended their #1 top RP earner (methods aside) with a HUGE following; a much LARGER risk than actioning just one account of a player who can easily resub/gain high RR immediately.
@Ramik nice plug, are you paid by Broadsword? you seem to do more Excuses/PR for the game than they do :P
3 day suspension for a repeat offender. Yup they REALLY play it serious and don't play favorites.
Nope. I've been critical of Broadsword in the past when I've disagreed with them (especially around macro teams before they addressed it). They've done the right thing when it comes to people ACTUALLY exploiting.
Rumor has it this isn't the first time Hero was actioned on his account in the last 30 days. If that's true I don't really see your point.
i would call this bullshit.
people have been using catapults since the first year of daoc in similar situations. and noone ever got a suspension for it. it was common in old frontiers (at least on my server) it has been done in nf and bg's since ... do people remember Slampig ?
Slampigs actions resulted in BS moving the release place in NF from the border keeps to other places first in NF and later at the relic towns.
and even after the move from the release spot at the border keeps to crim / berk / nott, and later to the to the relic towns, in the aftermath of some relic raids, people have attacked the people in the relic towns with no consequence.
but now ... bored hibs shot a few catapults at the PK and herorius and some other hibs climbed the walls of the pk (why the **** can you climb those walls in the first place ?) and herorius got a 3 day suspension ??? i don't agree.
I have to say that Muylae is right on this. I remember Slampig and his buddies never getting suspended for putting catapults down on the hill near the PKs and he constantly did it but Broadsword did nothing then, so the rules seem very inconsistent to me. But if they are going to be stricter about cheating/exploiting then that's great but still think it's broadsword fault for not implementing something to stop players from catapulting PKs after how many Caledonia events?
And, iirc, they started banning for the catapults along time ago. Maybe it wasn't slampig, but someone def got banned for it.
Again I agree with ramik Broadsword are not going to ban someone who is so high profile unless he has done something really serious.
He’s a cheat been convicted of cheating and now must be forever tarnished with that label.
He is not the messiah he’s been a very naughty boy!

Intentionally exploting in-game bugs is DEFINITELY cheating.

A zerger is always a zerger!
you're comparing grapes to a watermelon...
But learning is hard for some people.
You are making a BIG swing on this one. Ramik, runs zergs BUT he also has zergs to fight against. If he doesn't the US hibs log or break off into smaller groups or change realms. Gav as far as I can tell 8mans. Anna is the only direct competition to Heros numbers and they pale in comparison 90% of the time.
Why this needs to be explained to you over and over is beyond me. I get that you just came back and are getting up to speed again with Hero BUT that doesn't change the fact that Hero when he is zerging drains the populations and destroys action. It's a fact, not an opinion. He will run nonstop despite there being no defenders or population to oppose him. Reason is most of the server will log Hib when he runs.
After dealing with these types of maps ever since I came back to the game 7 months ago...and you really have to ask?
