Blizzhackers

Bullshit. Every time I get even a hint of someone censoring, I investigate it myself and come down hard on it. If censoring happened and people were not punished, then nobody told me about it. If you see it, tell me via PM or IRC and I will come down as hard on it as I initially did here.

I am tired of people insinuating that it happens all the time and then never actually having evidence or any record of pointing it out at the time.

I'd like to state that this was a misunderstanding with I_AM_ALIVE, who went out of his way to apologise to me for it.

What occurred was a user posted what I later posted, then asked for his post to be deleted by I_AM_ALIVE, who did as was asked of him. When I reposted what had been deleted, he chose to delete my post also, even though I had been expressly asked to repost it.

At this point I contacted him privately about it, and he admitted this to me. The mods seemed extremely strict on dealing with someone censoring posts, removing him from trial mod status within the hour. After he explained himself I forwarded this explanation to other mods, which explains his reinstatement.

It wasn't censorship in this case by anyone but the initial user who posted it, who also deleted the pastebin he had put the method into. Hope this clarifies for anyone who was following this closely.

you (or someone else)censored me in this very thread by deleting my post when I previously claimed that you guys censor.
you guys were censoring the windows clock auction cancel glitch (dark_mage even said he was actively contacting people to prevent them from posting about it) up until it was posted all over reddit and such
you guys censored the method used to cancel auctions with injection by deleting the thread
and that's just the recent stuff I've noticed, and I barely even visit this site

back on topic, I have tried doing the method, and had the same results as K_OS (I tried it on an auction that didn't have a buyout)
I got an error from the server I've never seen before, though
but the buyout was turned into a bid, as found by K_OS

i received that message too, its what happens when you put memory edit a buyout onto an item that doesnt have one and press the buyout button that shows up, but it doesnt involve anything with the bid button or switching the hexes of the buttons so it must just be a wrong method

Hahahah, you are so full of shit. The only things that have been "censored" have been topics regarding the projects under legal scrutiny. None of the auction house topics have been "censored" in any way, and that's not even close to what I said. Citation needed. What I said was that I asked people (the few people I know from IRC, not on any kind of massive level) not to post on the forums about the chat spoofing exploits found because I knew the item spoofing being posted would inevitably lead to large amounts of people getting crashed, and that purpose alone, and would get fixed before actual exploiters could dig at the mechanism more to see if there was other stuff to uncover before it swiftly got 'fixed'. This also occurred on the first week of launch. Looks like I was right. Furthermore, I expected Blizzard definitely expected people to do that since it has been done in every other game and it would probably lead to people getting muted or banned for a stupid reason. That said, I never once told anyone not to do anything nor did I prohibit it from being posted (as it was). I merely gave advice. How you turned that post from a totally different topic into me telling people not to post about the Auction House client time exploit is beyond me. In fact, I encouraged that to be posted.

The fact I admitted that should only reinforce the attribute of my transparency.

As for this, looks like you guys are doing it wrong, and I really would, again, advise that it would probably not be a good idea to do that especially considering this story has gone mainstream and Blizzard is obviously aware of what people are trying to do ... unless you don't care about getting banned.

darkmage censor d2jsp topik becos he is njag KELOLK

And Blizzard isn't logging irc.......
People get themselves banned every week it seems and they still buy a new game.

I miss the old BH days when people weren't that greedy and used exploits with caution.
Just remember how many people exploited chesthack.(not many considering the total amout of D2 players)

If you find an exploit and want to keep using it you will have to keep quiet or wait till Blizzard stops caring.


I give you some small hints for another nice AH exploit:
1.Being "poor" got an advantage
2. <-------

Got from somewhere


Big risk of ban , doing it you might as well accept your fate

Step 1: Download hexHD HxD Hex Editor - CNET Download.com

Step 2: Press Ctrl + g to enter hex values, they will be all listed under here.

Step 3: Switch these two hex values.



Or these two: C14E10 and C21600

And all the hex values are found in a file called icudt44

Oh and here's a link to all possible hex values: viewtopic.php?f=236&t=490715&start=15


I haven't tried as IDK wtf is going on, but if you try and it works you can contribute back

I tried the method you posted alpha and got the codes to switch, but it didn't change anything in the AH for me.

Wonder if doing what I did flagged me or if you actually need to buy something out with the exploit for it to get you in trouble.

hmm weird... i went into that dll and found the offsets, they had the same lines of hex but the text lines they corresponded to had nothing to do with the auction house

they were like different countries with dots between each letter like i.r.a.n, it had no mention of anything related to auction house

needles to say, i still swapped the values, and also did not have luck with this

pretty sure whatever I AM ALPHA posted is an elaborate troll
but, let's assume that it isn't and what he's trying to do is switch the bid button with the buyout button

if that's the case, the end result would be no different than the results I had
you'd simply be clicking the buyout button on a different part of the screen (where the bid button used to be)

because, remember what this all boils down to
either you're sending a series of packets to bid on an item, or a series of packets to buyout an item

if you send the bid packets, then you will bid (not what we want)
if you send the buyout packets, then it will cause a little error and turns your buyout request into a bid (not what we want)
there is no exploit here.

Forget this. Its trash.

So I've seen a ton of threads about this and no one can get their story straight. I'm throwing down the gauntlet in this thread. If anyone can do this exploit, go the US gold AH and run a search for this item:



It's set at minimum bid of 100g and a buyout of 13 million. I know it's a crappy POS and no one would ever buy it - that's why I picked it.

If anyone can buy this item out before the auction expires, send me an email or PM me and we can talk about an exchange of info. I promise I can make it worth your while .

Dude.. lol. Chest hack was my first experience with a banning. I had JUST got my matching Fury Balrog Blades too.
