So.. when we get d/c it was a client crashed thing.... so there's no "Disconnected from Server" msg?

Looks like it.

Probably buffer overrun of some sort.

Oh wow, thank goodness that i havent logged on today. Since im in Elderine.

But does that mean that they get D/c ed when they say the message?

Not sure. Possibly not, since people have tried logging back in instantly and still get DC'd.

Ok... what happened to me...

I was walking from CP up to Uruga to restone, and as soon as I walked in range of someone spamming a gold site, my client shut down. No warning, no nothing. Boom window is now closed.

I logged back in, and all the shops were gone, and everything seemed fine... for like 2 seconds... then BOOM... happens again.

The third time I logged in, I starting seeing that the only person staying on the frickin' map was the gold spammer. I blocked him, and then I was perfectly fine.

Try it ^^

Not sure if it works. I haven't been DC'd since the one time.

But what i dont understand. Why would the gold spammers do that>?!

I was in Rumen on my noobie mage when it happened again today, so I went to Elderine on my cleric... same was happening there AND in Uruga. So I started shouting for everyone to re-connect as fast as possible, look for the only noob standing near them each time, screenshot them, and report that info to the GM. The dc'ing stopped. 0.o Coincidence or if I scared em I'm not sure. I did catch who I thought was the Elderine hacker. After I stayed close to her she ran, I chased her, and she poofed. The dc'ing stopped and I never saw her again. Too bad I couldn't get a screenshot of her before I dc'd. I don't even remember the exact spelling of her name. :(

Oh by the way... shutting off normal chat didn't work for me. Someone did suggest going into character hide mode, which should work for getting out of town since you can't receive normal chat... doesn't work for hacker hunting though. If someone could confirm or test out character hide mode next time that'd be great.
