Stance On Farming

Please read the following in its entirety as it will completely explain our position on Farming.
Farming in Cross Fire is usually defined as the act of repetitive "killing" processes designed to increase the players EXP and GP at the maximum possible rate.
Farming, as long as it does not break any rules involving our Terms and Conditions or involve the use of any malicious 3rd party software, is something we can rarely do anything about.
If you want to get 10 of your friends and sit in a room and shoot them over and over and over again to max out your GP/EXP per hour ratio; OR find one of the other legitimate ways to increase the amount of kills you get over a given period of time, then there is nothing against the rules of the game that says you can't do this.
That being said.
We do not condone farming in Cross Fire. We want people to enjoy playing the game the way it was intended. As such we have taken some measures to discourage farming within Cross Fire.
These measures are as follows:- EXP and Point Caps within games.
- Idle timers to kick people who idle in games (be active in game!)
- Stopping the use of 3rd party aides which help in the acts of farming within Cross Fire. This can be anything from Macro Programs, Bot Programs, Hacks and VMWare.
- Adding various other timers and conditions to games to encourage regular play and discourage farming behavior.
Cross Fire was never intended to be run on a virtual machine over 5 instances with 5 alternate accounts all standing in one place while you shoot them to gain maximum experience.
Nor was it intended for you to use a macro program to simulate mouse movements to get past the idle timers, or other programs that find exploits and work-arounds.
If you need a 3rd party program to increase your EXP/GP over time ratio then chances are we are not going to condone it. And while we may not be able to "ban" you for it (at this time). We are constantly looking for ways to discourage this kind of game behavior and encourage proper legitimate normal gaming.
Lastly.
Farming in Cross Fire (with friends, through multiple computers or however else) will likely always exist in some form. We can attempt to discourage it as much as possible through our own means. But anyone with enough time and money can buy 2 computers, have 2 internet connections and play with 2 keyboards and mice. Why they would want to do that is beyond anyone's comprehension. But regardless, the farmer is likely not bothering anyone.
Rarely, in a game like Cross Fire, is farming an indication of player skill. It is an indication of time spent and dedication to a cause. The player may be the best in the game or the worst in the game. But they are likely not bothering YOU with whatever rank or experience level they seem to have.
Someone is ALWAYS going to be above you. This is a life fact. The trick is to not let that one guy/girl who you'll likely never see again bother you just because he/she has a higher rank in a video game than you do.
Be quite little man
Keep farming if theres cheaters in the world
F2P means they can ban you for farming
Go and play eternia thats proper F2P , more generous 40 ec on daily missions

pm DR4FT about it, he thinks there's no fix yet. I'll go check on mpgayhomo if there's a fix there.
I tried to pm you in game but you wouldn't answer. -

Phil you seriously fail. All farmers do to CF is mess up the "leader" boards or whatever they're called. Apart from that CF is the same with and without farmers.
and no one cares if you get marshal since you will probably quit like all the other farmers have done, you will have 10 seconds of fame and then be forgotten forever.;) -

Nobody has forgotten ADIGA? -
Farming clans will always be on top.
The more intelligent people here know that the top 10 clans all have farmers. I personally do not care about farming, but in farming there is simply NO WAY that you will get any better, especially in private matches or clan matches. -
Fame through the Leader board is insignificant compared to the real challenge during battles. Forget about those farmers and concentrate on being real. It's fun and there's more pride in getting ACE or MVP during games rather than hide and farm. And it's rather embarrassing to see farmers with 20.0 KDR end up with NO kills in a regular battle. This type of dynamics in the game makes it worth while to find a farmer and laugh about their performance.

I think about it is better to have Farmers that no c Hackers then are shocked that the farmers "the only ones who are shocked to the Farmers are a farmer who can not because you have no money or your computer is disgusting I think they have removed as of the drugs was wrong.
PD
Say YES to farming
Say NO to Hack
you 2
