Ok, i`m scared that i have cross over a multi... and that the admin might ban my account... i want this to be verified, please.

This is the account that i raided a few days ago:

http://www.stargatewars.com/stats.php?id=99272

Today i was attacked by this guy: http://www.stargatewars.com/stats.php?id=94694 for 02:39 Phew 12,369,415,890 Naquadah stolen 15 295 1052 *,*,*,* *,*,*,* details

I PMed him to return the naq, because it`s not nice to profit from the war.

I got this message from him:
Lol, ok then, give peenm82 back the units u raided from him


I replyed: "Is that your other account? If so i will... just give me back my naq... it`s not nice to profit from the war... " (i was trying to see a connection between those two)

and i checked that account with ID 99272 and saw this:

Certainly i was so surprised to see that.
I tryed talking with that guy (phew) and he replyed these (after he sent me back what has stolen):
d/w bout it, was only like 2k units, just enjoy the naq eh

i dunno, i have nothnig to do with that account, its my mates

Lol, hes a noob, he probably bought it or something, i dont know


Something wasn`t right... so i looked at the account again after the turn changed and saw the same ammount of naq outside, and i have took them.

If he isn`t cheating, then i guess that i was very lucky to catch him at the right time when he bought naq with $ or something... though i doubt about it.

I`m asking what do you guys think about this? I have discovered someone who is cheating or i was very lucky?
I don`t want to be banned by admin because i have raided that account and farmed it, but i don`t know if it is a multi or not and therefore i request these two accounts to be verified and if there are some traces of a cheat to take back from me what i have took, but not to ban me....

Hmm, that is a bit fishy. I think you've got the wrong section though, mate.

looks to me like they're exploiting the negative naq bug... they probably send the naq to that guy and have 2 people hit him at the same time... that's pretty messed up.

Look at that account now before the turn changes. He has -311bil naq out...

That guy phew has sent me this message:

SEND THAT NAQ BACK NOW


I think you are right geisha... he is exploiting some bug.

yup, they're basically doubling the naq... guess it's time to remind admin of that bug...

But how did he knew that i have attacked that account? He certainly can logg in it, therefore making him a multi.

don't worry about it... the bug they're exploiting has to do with generating naq not UU... so you should be fine since you haven't been taking advantage of the bug they're exploiting.

edit: oh crap... you DID take the naq... erm well... in that case you might have been just lucky... just as the other person who hit him at the very same moment...

This thing makes me think about those guys buying UUs at high rates on the market. Phantomx (phx ingame) was in the same alliance as phew. :?
