IP addresses and mac addresses do not uniquely identify people. Most home internet users have dynamic IP addresses assigned by their ISP, so it changes over time, and some ISPs even assign a different one every single time the router is rebooted (ie: Orange). Even with a static IP, nothing prevents anyone from using a VPN, tor, or any other anonymity tool. IP addresses may also be shared: some schools, dormitories, and organizations have a single address for every single computer on its network, so you could end up mistaking hundreds of people as the same person. Some computers themselves are also shared (ie: with coworkers, family members, friends, …). As for mac addresses, they can very easily be spoofed, and one could even make a script to change their mac address every minute if they wanted to... so yeah, that's a bad idea too. If this still does not discourage you from using mac addresses, feel free to add this "feature" to Hercules: https://github.com/HerculesWS/Hercules/issues/1734 There's really no silver bullet to really be sure of the identity of someone, but one of the approaches that kinda works is to make abuse costly on abusers, while not imposing a huge burden on non-abusers. What works best is doing a physical verification instead of a digital one when someone creates an account. For example, most social media platforms now ask you to provide and validate a phone number. This means if someone were to bypass this verification they would have to have more than one phone. Some sites, such as Paypal, go even further ask you for your credit card number (or bank account number) and then do a transaction on it (usually $1), to see if the card is valid. This means you would have to have more than one credit card if you want to bypass this verification, which implies physically going to your bank, making an appointment, and opening a new account. Some (such as Google) prefer to snail mail you an envelope containing a code, which you then have to enter on their website. To abuse this you would need more than one street address. Keep in mind that this only makes it harder on would-be abusers and that nothing can 100% fingerprint someone. Even DNA profiling isn't perfect.

@Habilis ahem ... getitembound should do most of the trick although like what you did with Trade permission is ... yeah more painful

@Begin the script was already done with reset at 12am every day however due to the information that meko said ... I'm going to revise this script ... prontera,155,180,5 script Reward NPC 4_F_FAIRYKID4,{ .@date = atoi( gettimestr("%Y%m%d", 20 ) ); mes "["+ strnpcinfo(NPC_NAME) +"]"; if ( #reward_daytime == .@date ) { mes "You have claimed the reward today."; close; } if ( @reward_timestamp && @reward_timestamp + .countdown <= gettimetick(2) ) { mes "Here is the surprise reward"; getitembound Poring_Coin, 1, 1; #reward_daytime = .@date; close; } if ( @reward_timestamp ) { mes "Countdown timer..."; .@timeleft = @reward_timestamp + .countdown - gettimetick(2); mes .@timeleft /3600 +" hour "+ .@timeleft %3600/60 +" min "+ .@timeleft %60 +" sec left"; close; } mes "Hello "+ strcharinfo(PC_NAME) +", I am here to give you a daily Surprise Reward. Do you want to have it?"; next; select "Yes, sure !!"; mes "["+ strnpcinfo(NPC_NAME) +"]"; mes "You can claim the reward in 5 hours time."; close2; addtimer .countdown *1000, strnpcinfo(NPC_NAME) +"::OnClaimReward"; @reward_timestamp = gettimetick(2); end; OnClaimReward: dispbottom "You can claim Daily Login Reward now."; end; OnInit: // .countdown = 5*60*60; // 5 hours .countdown = 5; } no longer use IP address, but use account bound items so that means, this script will give out the reward every day, reset on 12am, and the item give out is account bound .... probably the better way for not abuse the reward than the script I posted earlier

@AnnieRuru its okay. I somehow just edit it with the common query command and change the ip to unique_id. Somehow it worked fine for daily login. Wonder if you have any suggestion or tips to improve this. I don't kinda understand the script cuz im noob. but that this mean every 00:00 server time you will be able to get coin or 24hr from last talked to the npc? prontera,164,173,5 script Daily Login 4_F_FAIRYKID4,{ // $ip_reward_daytime = 0; query_sql("SELECT `last_unique_id` from `login` WHERE `account_id` = "+getcharid(3),@lui$); mes "["+ strnpcinfo(NPC_NAME) +"]"; if ( $ip_reward_daytime != atoi( gettimestr("%Y%m%d", 20 ) ) ) { $ip_reward_daytime = atoi( gettimestr("%Y%m%d", 20 ) ); deletearray $ip_reward$; } .@size = getarraysize( $ip_reward$ ); while ( @lui$ != $ip_reward$[.@i] && .@i < .@size ) { ++.@i; } if ( .@i < .@size ) { mes "You have claimed the reward."; close; } if ( @ip_reward && @ip_reward + .countdown <= gettimetick(2) ) { mes "Here is the surprise reward"; getitem 25045, 1; $ip_reward$[ getarraysize( $ip_reward$ ) ] = @lui$; close; } if ( @ip_reward ) { mes "Countdown timer..."; .@timeleft = @ip_reward + .countdown - gettimetick(2); mes .@timeleft /3600 +" hour "+ .@timeleft %3600/60 +" min "+ .@timeleft %60 +" sec left"; close; } mes "Hello "+ strcharinfo(PC_NAME) +", I am here to give you a daily Surprise Reward. Do you want to have it?"; next; select "Yes, sure !!"; mes "["+ strnpcinfo(NPC_NAME) +"]"; mes "You can claim the reward after an hour."; close2; addtimer .countdown *1000, strnpcinfo(NPC_NAME) +"::OnClaimReward"; @ip_reward = gettimetick(2); end; OnClaimReward: dispbottom "You can claim Daily Login Reward now."; end; OnInit: .countdown = 1*60*60; // 5 hours // .countdown = 5; }

the script you posted made by me ... sorry as I don't own Gepard, I don't know how it works so I couldn't make this system for you and what meko said was spot on, just reminded the IP address detection method on this script can just bypass by restarting the modem the mac address system though ... sry maybe I was out from RO scene too long ? 2 years ago I heard that mac address is something that is only possible by adding a 3rd party program running in the background ... and this makes me assume that Gepard is also something 3rd party program ... stuffs

Check out my first release - a map with trains for routes between Einbroch and Lighthalzen here:

Hello, I found this object at 1 @ rev when I looked through the list of of kRO locations. I liked it, it's more like an effect. This barrier on my map is marked by cells through which you can only shoot. And you can enter the zone only from the north side. Hi, I decided to support the section a little
