  1. Why duping is harmful to servers.
  2.  
  3. Duping. Where to start. You have one item and then you have two, then four, then eight and so on and so on. Why is this a problem? Because of players that do this to gain an unfair advantage over other players. Some might do it to because they cant play a lot or others do it just because they can or to gain advantage over the other players. While duping is not aimbotting and blantant hacking duping is still using glitches to gain unfair advantages over players.
  4. Now how does this affect the servers owners you may ask? There are people that may be very good in games and dont need to glitch or hack but do it because they can, they can really hurt a servers in game economy with items they did not earm but replicate over and over and flood the market with glitched items. Or they use the stuff to access items in game in which are very powerful and they have no fear of losing these items because they can just simply make items to replace those. Ever go up against a fully geared group of people with Navids or MAAWs launchers? You would think your in king of the hill not an exile server. Now take a big group of people that know how to do this and they will run the server. They will always have top of the line stuff and will run the server when there on. They can make new people quit and if left unchecked kill an acutal server because nobody wants to play there. That group of players kills the server then the people running it have no players and when a server has a low population nobody wants to join then it eventually dies. Now arma is already a slowly dying game with its clunky mechanics, man glitches and a somewhat steep learning curve compared to other game. But people that glitch and cheat in these make legit players want to quit. Now duping is way more subtile then lets say aimbotting, Dupers can get away with a lot more and do cause damage to servers. Maybe not a lot to the militarized servers but they wreck the survival servers where the vey rare items people can spend hours to find something they need. Now with so many other games out on the market its not hard to make the switch to other or even just uninstall arma (blasphemy!). I personally have friends who stopped because they got tired of being killed by ladders, doors, bushes or even walking on rocks. With so many other games out there and so many reasons for arma to be a bad game its still a love hate relationship so many of us have then when you add in the fact that people are glitching or cheating in the game it just makes it unfun and that is the worst part of all this because arma is trually a great game to share with friends. And when all your friends stop playing what fun is it to play by yourself when your buddies are playing the newest great game of the month? Playing with your friends and having a good time is what this is all about until a cheater squad wipes you and then everyone rage quits and nobody wants to play your favorite game. Everyone just wants to have a good time playing arma and so do I.
  5. Thanks, K9shibby.
