Quote:Sora has previously made it known that he doesn't want scripts that change a person's name colour being propagated
I have never seen such an announcement. Are you sire there has been made an official, public announcement?
Quote:(a) obfuscate the rights that the scripted user actually has
Fair enough.
Quote:(b) it causes a bit of load on the server that is unnecessary.
It doesn't cause any relevant load, except the code of it is bad, which would be a reason to optimize the net protocol, not to ban the script.
Probably this is a 3 byte packet... 2 bytes
for the type of message (16 bit unsigned integer, because I assume 8 bit are not enough
for Agma - original Ogar uses 8 bit - plus 1 byte with values 0/1 to toggle the state).
The traffic caused by this is irrelevant.
Quote:There was a previous script that changed the colour on the user's screen alone -- this caused no demand on servers, and no players could see it, so that script was deemed okay. YouTubers were using that to make it appear that they had a "rainbow name" in the game, and so on while they recorded videos.
Yes, Wynell's rainbow script which indeed is client-side only.
Quote:Now that this new script has changed that, is causing load, and is seen by other players, it will be effectively disabled by Sora.
He announced that so yeah, it will be disabled.
Quote:I believe you owe someone an apology. (iDemon)
Me? To him? The guy was a
hard-core teamer and should have been banned if any one was serious about SOLO servers being
SOLO, he owes
ME an apology!!!! Look at my name!!! He bullied me
for more than one hour with his team mate Ali (ALIDAGOD). The only reason he made this thread is that he is jealous and no one gave the script to him! He doesn't care at all, about anything else than his own wellbeing. He didn't made the thread to in
form Sora about a harmful script, but only
for revenge. Just read his initial post again, and maybe you will see... the way he did not just notified Sora about the script, but demanded its ban in public. He screamed "witch" because he couldn't have the beautiful woman, and now he wants to see her burn... "If i can't have her, no one shall".
