I made this topic to post the bad things I have done and can’t live with hiding anymore. If there’s anything you feel guilty about doing too feel free to post.
- Before I stopped playing the first time and when there was no 5 minute time I abused save file backup and restoring to get a premium weapon to +49 (and I tried to get it to +50 for an entire day and gave up). I did the same with my armors but only to +20. Also did so with dozens of other chance based things.
- I have edited my items stats. My weapon had 25 speed and as speed buff was always on I thought it was wasted potential. So I swapped around 3 speed with 15 attack. Also I did the same with my armor and secondary armor to get the stats and bonuses I wanted without wasting days once again. I think I removed pixels to make up for it.
- I got survivor achievement by slowing the game down. I got pissed off after trying it over a weekend and not getting it and decided to play at 80% speed. I did get it at normal speed on my current savefile though.
- I changed my zebra boosts to max when it was around 120%. I pretended I hadn’t it maxed until really long after, to give it time so it was not as obvious I was cheating.
- I pretended my stats were not super high due to the above. I at a time had 700k damage resist, which was enough to not take damage from almost anything. That’s how I survived idling Smiley Island back when weaken made it not possible. As for the +49 weapon, I think I said it was “just” +15.
- I edited my mindsweeper highscore. I tried forever and got really close to 2.5m only once, so I decided to add 100k to my highest score and move on.
Those are the ones I did back before I stopped playing. One of the reasons for quitting was that I started feeling bad for doing all of that, because a lot of those helped me progress way faster than I would have. Then when I started playing once again I decided not to repeat those mistakes, but sadly I didn’t. The ones I did on my current save file are:
- Back when I did 200+ megaboss runs I got home 12:50, I was planning to get the highest exp in a day (didn’t manage though) so I changed clock back 1 hour. I also died a few times. When that happened I decided to revert the save file back, and if game had saved already to add back mission points and remove enemy kills.
- I was desperate after 350 RC for 200% elite boosts, so I save scummed attendance boxes until I got that. I also save scummed crafting system, got speed rocks + some defense on every piece of enchanted leather armor and a dark mage wand to +3 with level 7 attack rocks. Also I did daily bonus over and over until I got the attendance box, just once though.
- When explosion arrived I went to bed and left game open, and when I got up it was closed and update had occured. I forgot to buy the explosion boxes. I looked for box price, removed YC and added 2000 boxes. I don’t really consider this one cheating, but might as well include.
Also some other stuff that are not in-game:
- I flamed someone from here which I regret doing so, because I think he has mental disabilities or something \>\_\<
- I discovered that BA exp transfer for SI had a few more 0s than it was supposed to and tried to hide it so people wouldn’t find it out, but eventually did. My main intention was to get “revenge” on Tukkun by making a huge bug through to the live version.
- I found out that the fighter career exp you used to get from rank up in BA after transfer was huge enough to nearly max it, and didn’t report it in hopes it would go unnoticed. It didn’t and was patched the next day though.
- I know of an exploit and didn’t report it because it can come useful later. It’s not anything you can get some huge exp from though, it’s quite the opposite.
Those are all the ones I remember. I hope they’re all of them, it’s a really big list. Sorry everyone. Now you can grab the stones and throw at me.

+Auto-clicker
Although I don’t feel bad about it since I wrote my own program for it.

i used auto clicker on adventures to level up my career

This game would not even be CLOSE to fun for me if I started cheating. It just seems like cheating would break the game, and then you’d get bored quickly and move on.

- For almost 6 consecutive updates, I stealth–nerfed EXP from Progress Bar by about 2% per update and nobody noticed it.
- Back in one of those rollbacks, I removed 5 billion extra EXP from affected users instead of just what they gained that day, resulting in some people getting negative EXP.
- When there was an exploit related to Temp. Max Boost not depleting, I penalized everyone who abused that by resetting all of their boosts, including Feature Shop and Zebra boosts.
- I made two double EXP events just to make people refresh for nerfs.
- I falsely removed the cards of many users, by reducing the number of cards obtained by 5 instead of reducing it to 5, and only compensated for that with one double EXP card.
- I once removed all Blue Coins of system clock abusers without any official notice.
- I increased the cost of certain items without mentioning it in the changelog.
- I never had the chance to change Explosion Crate and PMB rewards, despite the fact that I promised to do so.
- I made an invisible event to give out free enhancers yesterday, but never actually announced it, and most people don’t know that it even happened.

I set my item maker career to level 100 and removed some pixels and CM instead of grinding it.
I gave myself enough clicks to reveal all the boxes on the daily bonus two or three times.

I have nothing to confess, so I don’t know why I’m posting.
Posting only to say that, I guess…

I dont even have the right programming tools to hack in the first place, and i dont think ive ever exploited anything either
The closest ive come is when i got the super buffed halloween armor which was supposed to be temporary, but mine were permanent. That was just a weird lucky thing though, i didnt plan it
Other than that i’m like a model player of this game basically 100% legit

i did 200,000 clicks on button machine legitimately before breaking my mouse. After getting a new mouse, scared of breaking the new mouse, i used an auto-clicker for 50,000. That was ages ago, before I knew the awesomeness of the Battle Arena.

I tilted the screen upward so I could see underneath the daily bonus cards before clicking them.

I admit to two counts of save-scumming:
- On the first day of the Explosion update, I did it to enhance my pre-explosion trophy eight times using 25 ATK enhancers from explosion crates. After that I applied my relic, resulting in a 600 ATK ranged weapon with a base speed of 25.
- When I got the relic back, I did the same thing with the Elite Grenades.
Nerfs made to the trophy and speed on armor served as punishments for my cheating ways. As an additional punishment, I decided to write off the relic as a permanent loss and keep the grenades as a year-long reminder to never, ever save scum again.

I didn’t refresh at some points for a long period of time in order to dodge a nerf.

Game-related:
1. Let auto-mouse mover claim rewards for me for a day every time my PC decided to shut down on me during a time I was not there (so that I did not progress, I wanted that progress back). I tried to do it as fairly as possible, though of course I didn’t know how long my PC or AI had been closed down. This didn’t give me any advantage except more AI rewards.
2. Double/triple experience “days” lasted longer than a day for me. I don’t feel too bad about it. I explicitly felt right after there were many updates screwing me over.
3. Some minor stuff like buying instaprogresses in the version where the coins gained from it were equal to the coin cost, so you could actually indefinitely do it. My PC crashed before I could buy much of them.
4. Set my PC back in time a few times to feed zebra if I forgot. I decided it’s not worth it to think it’s cheating while I would have had the same result if I did think about it. Yes, I did put up the zebra, I was just so busy that it suddenly was too late to squeeze out the last 3%.
Non-game-related:
1. Accusing people of cheating while they really just possibly could have no life. And I don’t mean that as an insult, you honestly have nothing better to do if your anti-idle percentage is extremely high or your average daily experience is tremendously huge. I have had problems with that for a while. First, I thought there possibly can’t be people who would anti-idle this game all day long, then I thought about WoW and retracted that statement. After that, I found it so unfair that with a schedule like mine I could never keep up with such people. It’s also one of the reasons I quit playing seriously and might quit playing entirely (along with the gigantic nerfs to idlers).
2. I still think some people are cheating.
3. That includes Tukkun.
4. Also, you just got Darkroll’d.

As i Already told before I save scummed me a G5. Ending up in 15 tries to even see any grade 9 weapon. All i crafted during that was longspear after longspear, and a hammer or 3 as odd ones out. and what got me to savescumming for a G5: crafting a 3rd longspear.
At that time I felt justified in doing so, and I can’t wait till I am finished with my last 2 armor slots, and start saving up and shooting for a legit G5, but till that time comes I will be using this one and keep feeling stupid for letting my anger get the best of me and scum it into my possession.

- I’ve always used an auto-clicker for the button. Though never a mouse mover thing, so I’ve always been present at the computer and moved the mouse myself. I use the implemented auto-clicker now though.
- After maybe six weeks of only getting 1 attendance box and getting temp boost from it, I’ve save scummed to get red coins. While I do feel a little bad about this, I do find it pretty frustrating that people who missed out on events pretty much can’t get good temp boosts from the shop. I like the basic idea (people who have played for longer will eventually get more red coins), but it just feels too scarce for me, and annoying since I did join this game a long time ago (551 days).
- I was thinking of save-scumming to get crafted weapon/armour, but with the announcement of a new crafting system soon, I simply haven’t crafted anything.

scripting. from button to BA to crafting.
autoclicker was not good enough so I scripted to get 2-3 perfect clicks each time before switching screens. blue coins came running. tukkun, randomize button machine circle starting position, and you’re good.
BA scripting moved the mouse, sprayed ants, collected loot, spammed X and Q, refreshed mana, etc, all at the same time. I had fun trying to add more features. For the scripts to work, the game window has to be located the same place every time. For me, it’s google chrome and 8 down arrows.
I scripted to buy cheap armor, cheap enhancer, enhance, repeat, and after 10 times, sell all.
some of the fun of the game has been trying to stay one step ahead of tukkun, and adapting to changes fast enough to matter. I tried to be creative, effective while having fun with crude and simple solutions. If at the end of the day what matters is the fun you have playing the game, i regret nothing.
abused the save-load a bit, but very little.
PS: all my arcade results are my own, especially Survivor. I wear it as my title even today.

Had a friend put my Legendary G5 put back onto my save file after i accidently sold it. The same perosn also added 36 attack to it since i never got the chance to use my growth rock on anything so i now have a +6 830 attack G5.
