Thread: So you linux guys get banned - Wow?

A whole bunch got banned for using the emulation software cedega.

It doesn't let warden run properly.

So anyone in GU affected or you all running windows PC's now?

Nope, I gave up trying to use linux for wow right when the first wave of people got banned for doing this.

Simple fix. Don't play wow

simpler fix, dont use linux

Yeah I know a few people that have been banned by this.

I'm 100% in agreement with you here

What are they saying Evil, I mean they should be able to sort it out.

Interesting tho you could actually run hacks thru the linux setup and not be detected

Apparently the warden can pick up the fact you are using Linux and the Emulators, and doesn't return a false positive. Apparently it can pick up using hacks and bots running the game under Llinux. According to the blues on the forums, Running wow on Emulators under Linux isn't a bannable offence.

Also it says 100's of people got banned. Dunno about you but I'm pretty sure in a 7 million subscriber base, There is more than "100's" of people running the game under linux. So maybe those banned, may actually have been doing something dodgy.

Also apparently a high number of people running the Auctioneer mod have been banned.

You dont get banned for using linux, the Warden program knows you are using linux and is fine with it. The people who got banned are using linux as an excuse.

Nah it was just the cedega users, there are other ways to run wow thru linux.

So are you guys cedega users or just assuming they are all cheats.

7 mil subscribers - couple hundred cedega users sounds about right IMO

All Linux users are filthy haxors.
I thought that was common knowledge o.O
