You keep saying " by taking your exc cape into a fight". Again, it wasn't my intention to fight nor did I know I was going to fight. He never told me he wanted to PK until he stoped somewhere in NC. I was wearing the cape to make harvesting gold faster in VoTD cave which was my actual destination. I saw _BlanC_ on the way and thought that whatever he wanted wouldn't take more than a few minutes so going back to the storage would have been a waste of time. I'm not complaining about the cape. I can afford to buy at least a few. I'm just saying that people shouldn't trick you into going somewhere by asking for help and PK you without telling you or without agreement. He should have said he wanted to PK instead of asking me to accompany him. Regarding Naralik, goblins there can't really hurt me. Forget the cape or my stuff. I can make my own stuff. What if he does this to someone else who has to buy his sword or augmented pants?

sadarar, I wasn't in NC when I first saw him. I don't PK either. I'm only in the game at the moment for alchemy and manufacturing fun and hunting wolves/goblins. I was heading towards the gold cave in VoTD to harvest gold ore and hunt goblins when he asked me to accompany him somewhere. I assumed he needed help with something and I'm always more than happy to help out people so I followed him to NC. When we got there, he said he wanted to PK. I refused so he asked my A/D. I told him my stats. I asked for his stats and verified using /gossip. When they were much lower than mine, I refused to PK twice. I even made it clear that I don't PK. So he summoned a white tiger and killed me. After I respawed, I decided to give him a chance. I even offered to buy my stuff back but he refused. In any case, I'm not worried about my stuff. I easily manufactured another steel long sword and augmented pants and bought another excavator cape from WSC. This thread was simply a warning for others so they don't fall in the same trap.

_BlanC_ asked me today to accompany him somewhere but wouldn't answer where. I assumed he wanted help going to some dangerous map. For example, a person might ask you to go with him to Naralik and fend off goblins while he buys books. So I followed him to NC. When we arrived, there seemed to be this PK arena there. He said he wanted to PK. I asked his A/D and it turned out to be 15/15 . I said no and told him and that it wouldn't be fair to him because I'm 29/30. He said he wouldn't mind dying. I refused again and I said "NO". I was about to leave when he summoned a white tiger. The tiger killed me and _BlanC_ took my exacavator cape, augmented pants and steel long sword. I was told this isn't illegal to trick people into PKing so just beware of this guy everyone.

Where I live, wireless internet or pppoe internet providers don't give out external IPs but only internal ones. So there are probably over 500 people using the same external IP of one particular ISP. Now since I don't know any of them, I don't know if any of them play EL. But what if they do? Will it appear as if I have more then one client running on the same computer?

I believe I can help. I run Linux and although I try to stick with my distribution's versions of software, I am comfortable with checking out software from cvs, compiling software, packaging it, running gdb, etc... I also know how to apply patches, etc... This ranges from compiling kernels and kernel drivers and modules to compiling desktop software like Firefox, Gnome and openoffice. I can't say I know how to program with C but I understand the syntax a bit so I can help with manually applying or backporting patches. I'm running a home compiled cvs snapshot of elc from yesterday.

Hi, my distribution is updating our nvidia drivers in the repo to 169.07 today. Can you provide a patch (file.diff) for your workaround so I can rebuild the el client? Edit:. Editing gl_init.c as lama suggested fixed the bug.
