Russia and CIS regions blocked from Tera's European servers • News • PC • Eurogamer.net lolwut ? probably one of the dumbest things i've read "''En Masse will block IPs based on region. Asia, Africa, Russia, and the Middle East are included on the block list. While we appreciate that there are players in these regions who would enjoy playing on En Masse servers, it's unfortunate that the vast majority of Internet traffic we see from these regions are from cyber-criminals relating to account theft, gold-farming and other hacking behaviour," En Masse announced." as if "hackers" / "cheaters"/"farmers" /or simply someone with half a brain are gonna be stopped by something as trivial as an ip ban . only kicking themselves in the nuts by removing a legit business portion , game being enough of a wow clone as it is.
they know that they are not going to stop them but you make it harder for them. I thought that blizzard had blocked IP from north-Korea because they only use hacks and stolen account for goldfarming
