Corruption knocking at your front door :*
Let’s shed some light upon some issues the
game is currently facing. I didn’t want to make this public, but by now I
believe that the community has a right to know and this is the rightful step,
so here goes nothing.
Pretty much everyone knows but I don’t see
any concrete evidence. There is a special version of the D’Shop which is
usually not accessible by normal players, somebody from Papaya has leaked the
quest scrips, this allowed some people to access it, this shop is accessed via
quest.
The GM-Shop has been reopened & renewed a while ago. It had been closed 3-4
years ago to prevent people from abusing it. This is also where all the GD
Weapons came from, however, even back then, Gismo kept insisting that the
Brazillian Players were legit and nothing has been found, as always. http://forum.papayaplay.com/index.php?p=/discussion/comment/18332/
At first I was sure it was
related to duping, later I assumed that people were using the GM-Shop. I just
had no factual evidence. I’ve been told the Brazillians were duping, some of
them did, that’s why I helped them to fix maint-duping.
duplicate items. I recorded a video a month ago which I wanted to send to
Elanin, but then the story took a pretty big U-Turn. I asked about GD Weapons
and what the Brazillians were duping because something didn’t seem right. The best
answer I got was “they use a different method” or “but they will just keep
coming back since they know a working method we don't". It wasn't even
duping.
Levante has caused unnecessary drama for
selfish reasons, which didn't really help.
Levante / PikaDMG / LOUIE /
IamLouie. KANO / ChuDMG helped them to translate some parts of A19.
They’ve been looking for someone who
speaks Korean and would rather get paid in virtual items than real money,
unfortunately he leaked not only infos about A19, oh it even mentions the
scrips, that's nice.
character as well, I knew it from the first day but remained silent until he
accused me. What he forgot to mention is that he was never even legit himself
and the only reason his CS was not perm banned was because he transferred it
late. Levante thought he was smart and told some of his friends he can ban
anyone he likes, so I told Elanin this -
I’ve talked to her ingame she told me this
-
She already got Lonyen / Despise / Heaz
fired @ Nexon times, she hinted that I should report Levante, I didnt.
They also requested the documents from
Nexon to verify the information I gave them, turns out Levante has been lying
to them about his past and isn’t even legit.
She wanted to know if I have done anything to him.
I did not do anything to this guy, he does
not even know me.
I thought that having a GM who speaks
Korean could be quite useful, well I was obviously wrong. To be honest, he is a
cheater and scammer, such people should not be allowed to be a GM, but it isn’t
the first time anyway.
I didn’t want Levante to lose his CS but
that was not my call in the end. Levante knows about the GM-Shop, that’s why he
accused me of hacking all the time, I used a method related to duping not the
GM-Shop. Elanin knows what duping methods people use and that you do not even
need a proxy to get it working.

back up their accusations, needless to say it never happened. It took me a
while to get something they’ve never shown me, evidence, therefore I decided to
“help” them again -Anyway, I thought that if I had
screenshots of the items, it would prove anything, but I am not trustworthy to
them anymore, and I might just be lying and making this up, so please judge for
yourself.Elanin would tell me this –
I asked her for
permission to get those items, no reply, so..One day later this
-Still no reply. I can't
really blame her.They make a lot of money
as you can see here – 99 € / 117 $ for a 100%, amazing, don’t you think ? -

This shop has been
frequently updated, there’re so many items normal player have never seen.You may wonder why do so
many people have Deux and not Mordresh ? The Modresh Egg is random, the video
at the end of my post will prove this.
When you take a look at
the transaction logs of some people and it looks like this -there might be something
wrong. -

There’ll be people who
are concerned about their accounts, you do not have to worry, thankfully
there’re way too many people involved which means that banning all accounts
related to this issue is not an option, if they do that they might as well shut
the game down. Some people are the complete epitome of hypocrisy.This thread might get
deleted and I will get banned but that’s fine. I want people to read carefully
and decide whether this is true or not, critical thinking is something most
people are clearly lacking these days.It would take less than 1
minute to disable this shop, they recently got a new DEV. I hope this thread
will make some people think twice before spending money.@Matea1B This shop has
not been created by any player, the items have been added by the DEV's. They
update this shop, they raise the price, this is not the work of some magical
hacker. Papaya gets all the money, you have to buy DKC to buy any items there.
No, players have not been able to access it without help.I thought I just made all
this up and used hacking tools, well here is your chance to prove it, it surely
helped to make some people not believe me, but something like this cannot be
hidden forever. Simply disprove what I am saying and post your proof here, like
my transaction logs or anything.Here some pretty cool
rings ;@ GMWaldo I doubt that
somebody with such hacking abilities would create this shop. The items are
being purchased with DKC, that hacker must be a Generous-Papaya-Loving-Genius.
99 € for 100% Talismans, some items 249 €, it has worked for 1-2 years, nobody ever
noticed, I am sorry but your statement is unbelievable. It was hacking.. So
will you refund all the money people spend on this shop ? Or is it okay for
Papaya to make money "by hacking" as you say ? Is Papaya heavenly
relying on people to use hacking tools to make $$ ?If you can, please make
the DEV's disable this shop and delete all the items that were illegally made.
You could have made an announcement about this issue, nobody did, as a matter
of fact there has not been a single GM post regarding this matter in the last
months, but as soon as someone posted the screenshots of the transactions you
would reply within one hour, that's just amazing.To the players : Enjoy
discussing this while it lasts. -
Monusha Posts: 27Member BeginnerIs this a bug???? Why is something about Dekaron in La Tale forums??????????my dong enragement child

bone16 Posts: 75Member Beginnerwhy are you again blinded? its on the wrong forum. or is it a bot? cause this is nearly impossible to write in the wrong forum when it litterly says LATALE

babybaka Posts: 55Member Beginnermaybe . he just wanted to talk about it in latale section.IGN:Pathos/StolenRiches/Highkey/Inflicted/Mythology
-
Aegelweard Posts: 351Member IntermediateMaybe he posted it here because it would have been quickly removed from DK forums. Nobody from DK community will find it here, obviously, but at least he can re-direct them to this thread. Something like that.
I wonder if some shady things are happening with LaTale too.

Cyrilic Posts: 109Member TraineeSome people need to not come at others rudely when they haven't done their own research.@Monusha it is a bug, we used to get people with random Blackshot forum posts and they were just as confused as we were.Shame for this guy though, he put a lot of work into his explanation.

mamario00 Posts: 81Member BeginnerHe did not make a mistake @Cyrilic I personally checked the forums for dekaron, where this thing is based off and that post is everywhere, everyone is exposing not so much the GM that is responsible for this mess, but the papaya staff itself.
I was curious if this was a troll attempt, so I had to do my own bit of research on this topic and basically this is what I got so far from it:1.A special shop created just for GM, or contained GM-Like Item, could be found if you followed a certain quest line, or if you got "personally invited" to it. In this shop people could acquire god-like items that not even the Korean game had a supply of (they were super rare things that you could win from event). People bought from this shop and then acquired the item, they ended up going through this by making low level Alts because it could bypass through their detection. (The transaction of what they bought was there, ill get through that part later).
2. Papaya was fully aware of these transactions because it was kept in their log, There is no position for them for not knowing what was going on, and the GM of this game were fully aware and kept saying "we will investigate" but let these people off the hook. The GM were responsible and let this issue persist for 2-3 years, because it was the same GM who leaked the shop in question. Papaya, again, was fully aware of this and allowed it for the past 2-3 years until ironically, a "hacker" exposed them. The silence treatment that guy got when he contacted that elinia chick or whatever the hell is your ign was what confirmed that what had happened did happen.
3. He was a normal dude who helped the GM do THEIR JOB,by finding issues or whatever in that game, basically the whole community helped papaya with bug issues or whatever. Countless times Papaya knew of these issues and let it happen, and this shop thing was one of them. Various complaints and tickets are being shown at this very moment showing proof of the ignorance attitude that Papaya has given them. The guy decided to look for the issue that he wasn't assigned to, and when he did well....you can read above what happened.
4. They have a rule where if you exploit a bug you get a 7-60 day ban, but the GM are permanently banning people even if they are not fully aware that they received hacked items, so now that also is a complaint list. Talking about bans and list, people are demanding a ban list to see if those bans are real or not, but papaya doesn't want to even though they once did that. So to hush people, Papaya permanently banned people. I am not surprise if this dude gets banned as well for exposing them or if his forums get deleted.
5. Let me repeat, Papaya was fully aware of that secret shop and was controlling the prices of said shop, basically they were scamming peoples money, and then permanently banning them later, which is the douchiest thing you can do in an online game. To promote that shop, they ended up making that games player success rate in enchanting or whatever even lowered, and they made RNG basically not be random, but fixed at a low percentile.Well if you want to know more about it do your own research, its honestly really interesting,
Btw that RNG thing you can find in our gamble boxes if you end up thinking about it, and that is to squeeze as much money as they can from us before arising suspicion, each update the gamble box success rate gets worst, and they end up adding better items. -
Cyrilic Posts: 109Member TraineeAlright, but why is his original post showing page links to a different thread? it looks very borked and buggy as all heck.

weakconcerra Posts: 20Approved Member BeginnerI wrote this post. I do not know why dannydritz tried re-post it here, probably to raise awareness.I'd like to apologize, it shouldn't be here and as some of you probably already noticed it has been thoroughly discussed in the Dekaron Forum therefore I'd appreciate it if one of the GM's deletes this thread here.
