Darktide is acting like Darktide

Once again, Darktide is down for an undetermined amount of time.

First, we had them dropping stipend rewards on the ground and then picking them up and getting to 275 in a short time. This issue boiled over onto other worlds and made Turbine address the issue. It was causing the worlds to crash.

Now we have them duping anything and everything in order to sell the special items for real cash.

Lots of Paragon weapons, special Orbs and whatnot. They then sell these items to other fools for real money.

Somehow, I am having a difficult time understanding which one is the bigger tool.The person crashing the world and duping or the tool that pays real money for a virtual item. Just another indicator of how stupid the world is getting.

Unfortunately, some of this is appearing on the other worlds and causing them to also crash. That is my biggest concern. Too many tools trying too many stupid things and causing Turbine and WB to just say - too hell with private servers. Only time will tell.

In any event, I am still playing and trying out various characters to see what I can do should private servers come to pass. I now have 14 accounts and characters on most worlds. It is really starting to become an administrative nightmare. What armor and weapons are on what mules??

I did kind of like Tings and its database, however, it is not real stable and doesn't quite do the trick. VT is a bit light also.

Several players are talking about 9 man fellows all in their accounts. That does sound like an awesome setup but I expect it takes quite a bit of horsepower.

I may geve a 4-5 person fellow a try. With all mages, they would clean house.
