Check out the v.255 - The Dark Ride: Ride or DIe Patch Notes
here!
How active are your GMs on your server?
Is it me I don't see GMs actually doing anything.
I'm not here to discuss people cheating, but rather the active support staff that nexon has in game.
There's 5 people cheating in pianus at any given time.
There's also a 24x blaze wizard blatantly cheating in lach that doesn't even cc? He's been there 2 weeks 24-7...
People are even cheating in oz now.
I hope it's not 2 month for some non ccing 245 blaster to get banned. But, this is beginning to affect my gameplay , when GMs on my server is not being active

That's something I actually don't believe in. Aside from events I have never encountered a visible GM.
Reporting via in-game or through customer support feels like it does nothing but I try to when I have the chance.
Since hacks aren't really permanently patched and only "band-aided" which causes a few days inconvenience for it to be updated on the fly, and account creation being incredibly simple there's no really opposing force against hackers. They control the training grounds, rankings, item existence, and markets.
The only anti-hack measures I've seen are the ones that only affects legitimate people. Add on the insane amount of lag at certain times and the absolutely broken progression ladder for damage which is the reason why some people hack.
Many people, including me have said that something needs to be done about it, but there has been no true budge from Nexon America to reinforce anything in these situations. It's quite disappointing yet not surprising.
We did see a GM afk in the fm entrance doing nothing once.
Much like Veracent, this is something GMS did not have, and Luna had to lose, too, in the migration.
Nexon keeps reassuring us that GMs exist and are patrolling, invisibly, 24/7. Maybe that's so. But they are definitely not there in sufficient force to even handle all player reports, much less catch the hordes of nameless unreported bots.
Once in a blue moon...you will see GM Rarukia in Reboot...doing nothing.
That's quite silly if true. Reboot is the server which should have the least attention.
*There are exceptions of course, DC hacking people and so on.
"Pretty sure" -gets dced for "hacking"- I wonder if I worked as a GM...would I get one of them hats?
there is some GM,rare showup ( maybe because timezone) ...LF>europe GM
but those that rare come dosnt do much work ;(
am not sure if baning spamers in fm/ardent (very rare) count... so ye thats it from their "activity"
ps: i know they have invisible thing so we cant see them (but am talking with clear facts when you see same botter for a month with lots of defame in same map doing same or in market with all those css/spells and such isn't obvious enough ?)
Since the V update Nexon has allowed 7-8 players who HACK and bot to hit lvl250 with more on the way. I've said this a few times now but it really needs to be pointed out constantly. This is simply unacceptable and one of the reasons I have sorta given up. I really really tried hard to get these cheaters banned. But Nexon support is getting worse and their GMs, despite saying they are present simply are not.
Most of the reports for these hackers that hit 250 were reported 3-4 months in ADVANCE. That is a HUGE time period they had to resolve the issue. I would let them off if it was like 1 or 2 days, but 3-4 months and followed up by multiple reports after? They always tell you the same thing. "This player is on our watch list". All this translates to me is this player is on a list we do not regularly check or check at ALL. It baffles me and everyone I know how people can get away with hacking almost 24/7 or at least 12 hours + a day and still reach 250. I really can't believe it. It's almost as if you are purposely letting them get away with it which I'd hate to think.
So to answer this thread question. Not active at all and never seem to be available when you really need them. I've even tried live chatting them telling them that the hacker is hacking as we speak and did they go out and check? Nope, they just told me they'd send a GM that was "patrolling" to go check. Such a load of crap.

Edit:
For 15$ a bot, I would clean each and every server on global (and luna)
TP to bot map > cc all ch
Move to an other bot map > repeat
After a week I will frustrate them.
Verdict: They exist somewhere, at some time, in at least one server at a time maybe... but seeing one in the wild is rare like seeing a unicorn
Thankfully I've been able to report the hackers without getting told not to by the GMs for a few years now. Seems that nexon caught him and a few others being bullies.
Though given that the ingame report button doesn't seem to work anymore, and reporting through the site keeps getting me 'Thank you for the report, we will investigate as soon as we can' I'm not holding my breath in seeing those hackers dealt with anytime soon.
10/10
If so, maybe they need to bring back to blue text world messages when players get banned.
also community has to stop buy meso/items (support those hackers)we have to start from ourself then point at nexon
we cant act as we blind , those hackers arent here for nothing
they make dirty cash out of some kids that later will get banned and endup lose acc and money they put wich at long term turns to more revolt and mess
at the end of the day its not about RANGEEEEEEEEE AND MESO we need to quit those toughts with help of nexon that will provide content where people will hang instead of fight for meso and range
