I am trying to get a better understanding of what has been going on with D2 of late in regards to dupes. I am somewhat out of touch since last playing back in 2001/2 when it seems duping was much different, easier, faster, and no fear of the items eventually disapearing. I see now that Blizzard has become a little more active, yet duping is still possible.
I hear a lot of people saying that there is no public dupe method. I am assuming they are referring to the Necro bone prison. I just picked up D2 again last winter and was surprised at the changes. Now right before ladder reset this summer there was extremely horrible lag. I see people refer to this as a result of a dupe method that I thought was supposed to have been patched last February.
Am I also correct to assume that there is still a method of duping, that only a select few are aware of? If so I am surprised this has not leaked then. One thing that has changed is I see all these sites selling items, it sure did not take them long to get high runes filled up after reset. I again assume that they are the ones who have this private duping method?
Lastly, my memory is not as good as it used to be. Does anyone remember the name of the program that was used back in 2002 to do some mass duping? From what I remember the exploit was found over the weekend while Blizzy was sleeping, and almost every game you entered people were dropping SOJs, Windforces, etc..like mad. If I remember correctly this was like a mod or plugin to another program that had extensive capabilities.
