AOC Tricks - Get A GM To Contact You Before Others Waiting

First of all, I would like to say that you probably shouldn't do this more than once or twice, because it's more than likely punishable.

I was looking through some of the .XML files in the AoC program files, and came across one called "actions.xml". So, I opened it up and was reading it. To my surprise, I found several of the GM commands that could be used in game.

I went back in-game. I figured it would be relatively funny if I could use one of them, although I didn't expect I could. The command wasn't anything common, thought FunCom might have been stupid and thought the commands weren't available and were secret.

So, if you type /bccaction in game, you get a message that reads "You are not authorized to use this command, and a report has been sent logging your request to use this command".

Well, my 60 destiny quest has been bugged (I'm level 80 now.), so I thought MAYBE, if I spammed the command, I might get messaged.

After spamming /bccaction for about 5 minutes, I had a GM message me. He said he had been notified that I was spamming the starter GM command. (Normal commands were like "/bccaction_death"). He asked how I knew it. I said it was in the .XML. He laughed, told me not to spam the logs anymore, and asked if he could help me with anything. I told him about my destiny quest and he fixed it for me.

Give it a shot, it's better than spending seven hours in petition queues.

- I did not type/find this hack/exploit/guide. I am simply passing it along to the good people of l33tness. =D

Hehe kinda funny but its that kinda stuff that makes the waiting time long. People like you spaming the loggs like that kinda ruins for the poeple still waiting. But i must admitt it sounds tempting ^^ what if every one on the server spams that at the same time!! lol the server will crash!

But i would /nay this. I dont find it a proper ting to spam the GM 8)

Im sure not everyone would find out about it, and once a few people start doing it im sure they will patch it. Until then, I would take advantage of it once or twice if need be.

Hehe, funny thing. But i spammed it for like 5 min and i got no GM. I think its easyer to just make a petition and wait until you get one. (If your not stuck or need a GM at the moment) Then maby its worth it. So i do. /Yay

Ye good point dermiox says there. if you are free and its just a question to the GM i would petition and then go have some funn while iwait instead of doing 5 min with boring spaming, but if im stuck or somthing it would be usefull to spam :)

/yay
