LOL. Because they have so much interaction with the TP before they reach level 30 
, if you say so. Obviously you were buying and selling loads of stuff to make money at level 20 or so. Cheap mats would be a major benefit to players under level 30 or were you just logging/mining/gathering to sell everything and buy BiS gear?
Yes, and so many (including you) seem to know the exact reason they left. It almost always coincides with the thing that person is complaining about 
In their defence @Yueying and @halfik , they may have stumbled across a glitch by accident with no knowledge of how it triggered, then finished the dungeon, and now they r on top of leaderboard with no knowledge of how they got that score.
It’s important not to assume guilty intent by default, otherwise innocent people get hurt in the crossfire
The trouble with this claim:
Is that the banned players aren’t allowed to type on this forum, and those that have purchased a new account don’t want to reveal that they were previously banned (incase it further violates terms of service)
So you never get information from the banned community to confirm or deny this claim, however, if you have been previously banned before, you would know that ags do indeed ban players for exploits, if you know what I’m saying,……
Another thing you might find interesting is that 2/3 of players played the game for less than 80 hours and left within the first 2 months. What exploits/cheats did they come across in that time?
The most obvious answer would be that a lot of people bought the game before realising it was not the type of game for them.
Every single expo has had bugs since day 1 and some were never fixed. Its rare for anyone to run a mutation like the game would expect. Its hard to get a run where the other players don’t EXPECT you to just use the glitches. The glitches and cheese became META and no game lives long with that., The status quo for NW is to cheat and exploit because that’s what the devs created.
And this has what to do with the 50% of players that left before level 30? Only 20% of players even reached level 60 let alone ran a mutation.
Nothing obviously… it’s to do with the title post…
Obviously, but nothing to do with the conversation you jumped into.
I can, which is why I questioned @yipperyapper 's comment that exploits/cheats and the leaderboards are the reason why
You were the one that replied to my comment that
with your comment about expeditions and mutations. Did you actually read my comment or the previous comments in that conversation?
I saw it at eldorado leaderboard…they’re not even make big 20 in clear time so i think its clearly a bug
Sure. 3.1k hours. Very new.
Thats why there should be a range of tmp ban from 1 up to 14 days. Next one 7-14 days or perma. And 3rd one perma.
So ppl that do exploit by accident just stop moment they figure out or get short tmp ban couse you never know if they did it on purpose or not.
Straight to jail. Right away.
They are not on the list for time (or outside of range). It makes me think they were able to get nodes to respawn or something?
Exploit, the score isn’t possible doing the run in time/100% completion.
I like this idea. It also allows people who make bad , regretful choices, to correct their ways.
the officially marked aim bot cheaters are still playing in our server for a long time and they are not banned still that we still see them in the game servers… so that’s why I can tell you that AGS is not truly ban the real cheaters or illegal players…
kenzene aimbot + wall hack musket cheater OPR New World EU
placalele aimbot + wall hack musket cheater OPR New World EU
There are tons of videos or confirmations you can find the internet with real video proofs that these cheaters are still play the game with their original accounts…
I’m amazed how naive some people can be …
If u ‘step by accident’ into a glitch u dont abuse it until 180k+ points. Is not like u cant see ur points and suddenly u are shocked “OMG we did 180k+ points”.
U see the repeating thing u are doing that constantly gives u points.
If exploits, cheats, hacks, abuses would be punished with temporary bans at first attempt and permanent ban on 2nd or 3rd attempt people would be much more aware and careful in using exploits, hacks, abuses and cheats.
I’m very curious how they triggered this bug. People thing they abused it until 180k points? I think more that they broke something like going in negative points to the Int 32 limit lol.
I’m so curious about this that we trying to discover it with some friends so we can make a report to ags. Indeed this is good content
And Also is not a bannable offense this exploit. They can just report how it is done and ags is gonna fix it. Everyone jumping to wrong conclusions here
Who care about that urgy skins reward?. There is so many video on youtube that show how to speed run it and some newbies just like to complain if they are to fat to watch some video first before complain that people hack for leaderboard. This photo here is a bug yeah. I am just annoying to see people talk about hack and cheat if some of the leaderboard on my server are 5 or more minute slower than the youtube guide. I and some friend got a decent time on every week and some newbie who ever play dps on 100 - 150 con and complain, it feel kinda suck. Please stop that people
