    Default Alliance has 3 Capitals locked down with One city trick as of today.

    Hello all

    Need some advice on what to do here.

    One of my server's earliest and best players quit the game over a year ago and gave his account to a player that used his time finding and exploiting glitches. His account had 10 HH's and one level 16 HC. The new owner also quit sometime after that and used the one city glitch to Lock up Vienna, and it has remained this way since then. It's actually over a year now. It has been reported so many times it's silly. That account was then given to a player who hosted the 2nd Ranked alliance on my server, My alliance's rival. He kept that 16 locked up, and just today, when he saw that my alliance was going to completely rock his world and take ALL there HC's, he Locked down TWO MORE 16's with ten HH's in each one. London 300,700 and Paris 100,500 are now also locked, or atleast will be after maint, the way the glitch works. They have also been reported.
    We now have three level 16 HC's, one level 14 HC's and several level 12 HC's locked up on this server. I lead the largest alliance on the server now, yet we cannot take these cities nor the HH's inside them because these players did this. I'm sure they will also be locking down many more 14's tonight also.
    Why can't we do something about this? Is it really so hard to just NPC these 16's for us, so we can take them? They obviously did not follow the TOS.
    If anyone wants the server number or player names involved, feel free to msg me. I withheld the names for people's privacy, but I'm starting to not care much about that now...

    Anyone have any realistic suggestions for this problem? It has been reported, and has been being reported for a very long time...

    Thanks

    EDIT: Several ports were used to port in on these 16's while they were being glitched also. This has upset the entire server and some people have quit already. One locked up 16 upset them already, adding two more to that list pushed more people over the edge, and they simply gave up. They will stop playing evony or move to a new server... I understand the tenderness of this situation, and also that you tried months ago to institute a fix for this. The server is an older AGEII server, and players feel like they are being ignored because of that fact... I keep telling them it's not true, but it has never been fixed so I think I lied to them lol

    2nd EDIT: Sorry if this sounds like whining, but it's very annoying and I'd really like to see the situation resolved.

    This is really a no go Evony. Why can`t u make it so u can only have 9 HC that way locking citys can`t happend. OR if u only got 1 HC left the game make u a 10 with your King/Queen. But that u can lock city in a wargame that is so not cool. Please fix this, as a X-mas present ;o)

    Or make the game more dynamic, and delete all inactive account over 6 months.

    Default Yes, Locking up HC sucks

    Locking up HCs And especially 16s or Atlantis is basically the end of the game. People have spent money and time with an eye to get these. If somebody locks them up it's end game and a lot of frustration.

    Evony, why cannot you just NPC these locked up cities?

    From there point of view they must be extremely bored as having full HC's means no porting around.
    Eventually after continuous reporting you will be rewarded.

    Like when ST were taking down off FB and to an extent comforting although that effected everyone.

    If you know how this is done, ie how you get the glitch to work then PM one of the reps, predominately davemata the 'recipe'. He'll pass it on to the devs so they can close the 'loophole' quicker. However, don't expect instant results.

    Half the problem with these exploits and glitches is the players find them a long time before Evony is even aware of their existence and since no one is forthcoming with the methods, they go on for as long as they do.

    Hope this gets fixed for you soon.

    Thanks to Infinitus for the epic B'day pressie!

    You might get lucky and some idiot will post a video on YouTube showing how it's done like the resource glitch and then -BAM-
    It no longer works...patched within hours of uploading.

    These gitches totally suck and should not be allowed. I thought that the admins fixed the problem about a year ago.How can the owner of a 16 not havee any other cities? I am not spending any more money until they fix this!!!

    Thanks, so do I.

    This exploit has been around for well over a year, and Evony has been aware of it since the beginning. I know they tried to fix it once, I just don't know what ever happened to the fix. In any case, I hope our server doesn't have to wait for another fix. I don't see why these HC's shouldn't be simply NPC'd.

    Thanks

    QFT.

    Not just this issue, but all issues. The more players help me, the more effective I can be at ensuring there is a bug free experience for all.

    Even when those promises ruin gameplay for others?

    Thank you for giving me a place to start the investigation.
