Ghosting spawns - so...?

Post by Bleeble Dorf »

Ghosting seems to be in full swing, more so than I have seen.

It's really bad right now, to the point that it seems every major spawn has a ghost.

I don't know exactly who the culprits are, although I know ACE and Malice use them.

Normally I would offer a solution to the problem, but I don't have one this time.

There was a young fellow a while back that made a character named "YOURBEINGGHOSTED" or something, and would go to hotspots and show/spam "0oo0o" when he found an enemy ghost.

Was a good service to the community, not sure what happened to him.

It contradicts accuracy but I think it'd be awesome to only be able to view the corpeal world if you're tabbed in. Or maybe lose sight of it after 10 minutes.

hmm yes, it looks like an ongoing issue

many threads devoted to the subject, many disgruntled players concerned about the effects of ghosting

Best solution I think we're going to come across. Malice and ACE ghosting everything single major spawn with 2 of their alt accounts and their other 10 members alt accounts seems to be making farming terrible for people. Personally, I haven't experienced it but I've seen QUITE a few complaints about it in IRC. I know that malice ghosts, and I just followed TT around on his tamer while killing counts on my stat pk dead and I know that he ghosts also.

I was fed up with TT ghosting the hell out of LL room and trying to gank with a tamer and 4 friends, so I stuck my own ghost down there just to see when they left so I could come back right away.

They wouldn't even let me loot a kill, they were back so fast. I must have wasted an hour of everyones time doing this.

It was quite pathetic..

Bragging about being too scared to gate into dungeons to gank without ghosting first is pathetic.

If you see them there, you know to stop farming and go somewhere else since you're being setup for an ambush.
