You now only have to step on a dropped flag in CTF to pick it up or return it to home. You still have to doubleclick it to steal it from the opponent's home though.
dumb, not everyone can step on the flag at once, why don't you post about these things instead of just changing a PVP event in a drastic way? like come on this changes CTF entirely.
and at the connection thats so stupid because I have a brother that plays and sometimes his friends come over and lan. You guys are fixing things becuase you have no other things to fix.. your making the shard baby proof which is retarded
undo these 2 things..

um so im "paging" u now, that for my connection since I have friends over and we play uo I would need this restriction lifted for me.
like for real when theres over 200 people on the shard you think there going to want to wait for staff to actually start playing lol? espicially if the staff isnt active like it is now the only people we see around is eru shade 2 new couns and muto recently.
and there all in different time zones + couns cant do much they don't have access..

Right now everyone who has a macro to doubleclick the flag will get an unfair advantage to those that dont. If you have to step on the flag everyone noone gets an unfair advantage, which is better.
About the multiaccount, ideally we wouldn't have to make that check. But since players constantly break the rules we are forced to take action.
Smoke I've had just about enough of you in these forums. You constantly find stuff to bash down on without even trying them first. You are making the entire shard look like it's dying when in fact we are growing.

The ctf was changed for obvious reasons. One of which was using a macro to grab the flag, which is what originally changed the event, this is simply a means of countering that and making it fair for all.
Paging now about multi accounts on an IP will not accomplish anything. This system, as the title of the thread states, is for the new server. Also you can't just claim friends will be there, we need proof. Sorry but thats what happens when people break the rules with no remorse over and over.
It doesn't matter if we have 5000 players on, they will have to wait. It is very clear that some players always try to cheat to get the edge and we are simply taking the necessary steps to stop it from happening anymore. Again, we don't want to give ourselves even more work but it seems like we have to when people don't follow the rules.
Oh also, this can log who is on whos account as well, so sharing accounts could result in severe punishment, especially for repeat offenders. The rule 1 account per person is there for good reason so please follow it.

What proof do you want that Me, Technique, Scarecrow, Silverwolf, Eighty Swords, NoHandels, Relic are all friends that live approx 5-10 mins away from each other?
So I'm sorry Shade but it seems like this rule was made to target certain people from not having fun.
Taran I already pm'ed about this matter earlier last year and You urself said it was ok as long as the person was at the house. People play games with other people I shouldn't have to be on a different internet connection to play with my friends when I'm at their house or their at mine. I have a laptop so playing uo at people's houses is a very easy/fun thing to do.
Hell Maka knows for a fact we're all friends and play at each other's houses, u can ask him for any proof you want.

I think the way Taran made it is better, most fair to everyone and new players who never entered CTF Arena to make a macro to pick it up.
I really wanted something changed to prevent those macros.

Also running over the flag does suck for ppl that lag, I can't even run sometimes in the CTF arena.
I do agree though the macro is overused AND I even stated that LONG time ago when Ronald and Gang were using it.
However I think that stepping over the flag isn't the best of a solution for this.

Let's just try those two changes out for a while. If it doesn't work out we can always change it again.
End of that discussion.

So long as it is documented in the allowed multi account list there won't be a problem. When we switch over, those people on the list will be fine but still watched just in case. Those people who have not been approved for multiclienting will have to prove they are not a single person trying to get an extra account.
P.S. The ctf is static, so it all has an equivalent load to grass. If grass lags you, I guess anything will. Also you are assuming that the new server will be as laggy as the current one without even testing it!
