If u have it maxamised you can see that he said "What is this pathetic magic? How about you come back with Twenty-Four of your best friends and try again High elf!"

I didnt go photoshop it or anything, you can try it out if u dont belive me. but yeah.

It'd really suck if it's true... that means Blizz has their way of sniffing us model editor's out.

It's probably just coded in to sort through a list of npc's and fill in the right one, then say it.

Hrm.

blizzard could give the same sort of, what am i trying to say, ...... they could make all npc's able to detect the model change similar to brutallus, and then flag a player, or set off some sort of alarm.

pure speculation, what do i know.


edit. Do people see brutallus's yells if they were not the ones to hit brutallus with a bomb? Does player "A" see an emote caused by Player "B"? no questions i know, but is it that bad....

I've seen him yell things before, I'm not sure if I caused it or not, I don't think so, but I think it's global. Not many people really pay attention to it anyways.

you didnt edit out your name on the the first ss Hihiri

blizzard won't ban for model editing unless people report you and most likely that will be for terrain edits. I understand the server records your character locations and a GM can play them back. But there is no logic in banning you without others reporting, blizz wants your subscription fee :P

Half way wrong!
Bliz can do what ever they want, as it says in terms of service. If they want to ban you for having a modle edit that turns your gnomes big toe blue, then they will. Sure they want your money, but they also have about 5 million other people they can get the money from.

[Methone]

You get banned for model editing?

I think your math is a bit off, aren't they at 10 mil or 11 mil already?

Yep they hit the 10 mil mark either this month or last month

[clownshoes]

I think that particular yell is local, because i see plenty of people spamming charges at him but he only yells with my race.

[samsta458]

Wow.....a leecher of model edits. The creator of this Model Edit went into the database to change the name of the selected race, this means that anytime you would say have a quest that says "Greetings, " is what it would be. You have a "High Elf" Model edit meaning the quest goes into its database and what does it find? The "High Elf" and thats what it displays. These things are client side on top of that blizzard has not found you out at that. Nice exploit too buddy, go read up on Model Edits before you use them.

Perfect explanation indeed.
