[TERA PC & Console] En Masse is closing, but TERA lives on! We will continue to support TERA PC (NA) and TERA Console until services are transferred. Our Service Moving Info page is now live here: https://bit.ly/tera_service_moving
Is proxy allowed? Yes or no?
We need an answer. Allowing the use of proxy is the only chance of saving some of NA Tera’s population.

Won't work after next patch anyways

The reason I ask is because caali stated that if EME allows proxy use he will resume support for NA.
Only by a legal binding contract. Which will surely, definitely never happen
(from the DMCA megathread)
Apparently their stance now is back to "we tolerate it, but no cheating!" I swear they switch stances about this more than most people change underwear.
Just don't be an idiot by showing your mods on stream, youtube, or screenshots and you'll be just fine. If someone has any evidence of you doing it, they can report and either suspend/ban you. Just like before.
smh what was the point of all this DMCA takedown after making that claim...

This is the result of taking such an extreme action out of nowhere while being unaware and oblivious and completly overlooking the consequences...
So now that they are noticing the results of what they did is that they are trying to appease the playerbase
Good thing player count drop and ppl leaving for EU finally work EME up. But as always, they always do things extremely late...
Nop, they'll not come back.
There's a thing called skill predictor that keep high-ping endgame player still playing this game all this time..
Can someone with less inhibitions tell the CM to pester EME to get better datacenters so people wouldn't rely on outside s**t, for f**k's sake?!
Seriously, why create all this chaos and then not do anything? I'm starting to think that the current EME staff couldn't find their a**es with both hands and a mirror.
P.S.: I'd ping people myself, but I don't know who all the right people are.
Where they gonna go? Every MMO I play has a contingent of players who have to use a VPN to get stable ping -- it's why WTFast, Mudfish, and the like are so well-known. TERA in particular is extremely ping-sensitive, as we know, and U.S. infrastructure is insufficiently-built. They can move all the servers to some other data center, but I doubt it will solve it. They tried the test data center a while ago (different provider, different location) and it was basically 50/50 on helping vs. hurting. It doesn't help that we have a significant population playing from all over the world (Europe, South America, etc.) that have to deal with crossing the ocean (etc.). So no matter what they do, there will still be a lot of people who will have to rely on "outside s**t" to feel like they have to play the game "as it was meant to be played."
I will definitely pass the message along and ask if they can look at metrics for lag/congestion at the entry to the datacenter, but I can say that in the past when I've done tests related to this issue, usually I was able to show that using a VPN could workaround the lag, which suggests it's routing more than datacenter. That doesn't mean it isn't some of both, though. In the end, they can try to switch it, but I'm not sure there's anything they can go in the U.S. that will really solve it.
Base SP is fine but not everything else. There are so many modules and script range from moderate to borderline hardcore cheating that eme can not keep track of or understand every one. That is why keep it simple. You have 200 ping? Use SP but do not abuse proxy. Same idea was said for dps meter where if you keep it to yourself you are safe. But if u brag to other people face and harass you can be punished,
