To say the pvp didn't take a hit from people downloading a free cheat program because funcom can't fight against it would be foolish. Edit by Anzu: Don't write this on the forums please....that is not even needed. I could sit here and toss out names to be edited out all day long, people that are "so pro" that have a slightly speed boosted combo enhancement. No one likes this (besides the baddies who cheat).
Sure there are false accusations, but if all I had to do was claim you are bad for even saying anything about it is just a defense tactic many hackers use. A few years back, AoC did ban some people. But now that we are in auto-drive...there is really not much point in playing pvp at all.
