Bumping this thread with your personal issues isn't going to help anyone that is looking for some actual information.
If anyone is still reading this thread and is wondering what the subject title still has in terms of actual effect: There are no duping methods currently in the game. There are a few bugs that, like any bug, could be exploited, but it shouldn't be anything extreme.
Regarding the wall of shame: Post UW launch, cheaters will now be publicly mentioned when they are banned. That's all it means, but the reputation hit might make some players less likely to cheat, as reputation means a lot in a game like this.
Anti cheat systems: I can't begin to speculate on if they updated it or not. Fact: In the last few months of 1.0's life their detection software was not updated and many people used cheats that were harder to spot but clearly there if you knew what you're looking for. We can only hope they are on the ball for these things after launch.
Other than that, it's not bugs, exploits and cheats that are the biggest issue for UW. The biggest issue is questionable design choices, which they are finally starting to come back on now.
How you can be that sure?
Do you believe dupers inform everybody else of their duping methods?
Did the Mercs inform Aventurine or the community of their methods in DF1?
No they did not.
You might be right and lets hope so but claiming there is no duping methods today is stretching the truth as i see it.
I have talked to 2 clans so far - they cannot wait for the dungeons to be put in without being tested.... They are like we know we will find exploits and we are going to lock them down and it will be money, money, money......

Evidence of cheating?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-93MNawCErI
I was watching all his video's because i wanted to learn more and see what the pro's do, but then a few things caught my eye. There are two distinct clicking sounds that denote archery attacks. One normal, and the other, a louder click (prolly not as worn/used as the main click). Whenever you hear the "louder of the two", u'll note that his targetting reticle immediately, and i mean instantly targets center-mass, and then he releases and then jerks the mouse off the target.
The catalyst, what made me review this video dozens of times over, because, i'm thinking, ok, it's strange, but they are good, and i suck, so i'll just chalk it up to that, was when Donovan stampede's away (2:47'ish), Skrew continues to shoot as his toon immediately spins in another direction and fires at the sand, and Skrew runs over the sand hill and low and behold there is a mounted rider there.
I've reviewed the video dozens of times...there was no evidence that there was a rider in that direction, and it seemed like the shots were directed to the riders center of mass BEFORE Skrew knew where the mounted rider was visible, EVEN if someone in their chat told him there was a rider incoming, which i don't hear when i increase the gain on the background chat.
I don't generally like accusing pro's of cheating, because i know what it was like in UO, and CS. The gap between someone like myself and zealots would be so huge that it could look like it from my perspective so i wouldn't say something unless it was obvious...and in that video, i would question it.
Not saying they are, just seriously putting it to question.
They not deleted that post yet over on the DF forums? That part in yellow is spot on dude. Clearly locked on and shoots right into the sand. There is no way for him to even know a mounted rider was over there, lol Unreal.
Yup, it just goes to show you that aimbots and hacks are still in the game.
at 2:47 is good evidence.
2:47 would get him banned in most games alone.... He is locked on thru the sand and shoots right into it - with no way period to know a mount was over the hill and he just so happens to be on line with it as he comes up over the hill too.... lol And all voice comms are inthe video and not a single person says anything about a mount anywhere, lol
Sure the wall of shame will deter this....
It's also been 16 months since anyone last posted in it.
