Make TWL Pay

[Deductable]

jeenyuss I'll be there ok I won't but I would like to

Why doesnt someone make a new client that stops cheaters from cheating and to plug the holes that they're using to cheat?

Oh wait, wasnt that THE WHOLE POINT OF MAKING A CONTINUUM?

PriitK has the source code. Is it really that hard to patch Continuum and fix the damn cheater problem?

FFS!

PriitK has the source code, is it really that hard to get him to touch it or even open it to outside development?

Yes

Ooops looks like no one is playing TWL still, odd that, huh?

That's right, you heard me. Set up a one-time credit card payment of $15 to play in TWL. With all the whining about people using CE and evading bans, etc., the only thing I can think of that would ultimately cut banned cheaters out of TW is to force everyone to pay $15 to play.

Think about it. You pay $15. All your names are assigned to that account by IP. You don't cheat, you have nothing to worry about AND you have the satisfaction of contributing to the game you just so happen to be addicted to (until now, for free).

Now, assume you cheat and get banned. Well, your account is banned. You can't change your IP or format your hdd and play with the same account, so you have to spend another $15 to get into TWL. For persistent evaders, this would quickly be crippling to any nerd's budget.

Not only would the cheaters spend more money supporting TW (ironic eh?), but the general level of competitiveness would rise significantly, since those who don't care so much wouldn't pay.

note: $15 is just some arbitrary amount. The best amount is something that won't set you back much but is enough that you wouldn't want to pay it 2-3 times just to play TWL.

EDIT: oops, wrong thread, can someone move this?

Bad idea.

Then what, pray-tell, was the point of writing a whole other client? Sure, we got rid of twister, but all that was pointless if CE is around.

You're right, continuum should NEVER be updated again, ever. As it is, I am quite content with not having any desire to play. So too I am sure everyone else is as well.

I'm saying PriitK should go update continuum and fix the CE problem.

The reason he doesn't is because once he does that they'll find something new and more complicated to abuse. Becomes a cycle.
