    xigncode3 is not, by any measure, an effective piece of software. the only people it will stop from logging in to tera are legitimate players (false positives are common), and when those players fail to login, do you think they're going to contact support and wait 3 days to login after uninstalling unrelated software, or google a fix and start cheating so they can play in 5 minutes?

    The problem with the "false positives are common" argument, in terms of convincing EME, is because they already use this now on all their other games and PUBG (where they provide the support). PUBG has millions of players, so whatever issues there are with this tool, they already know them by now. They are deciding to add this knowing what they're getting into, including from a support point of view.

    Again, I do not agree with adding this software particularly because it seems to be entirely ineffective, but I still don't think they are anticipating a high level of customer technical problems compared to what they already went through.

    I just don't really see an upside, even from eme's point of view.. the downside is that there are possible (let's be honest, likely) technical problems involved, added vulnerability to customers (xigncode is fairly easily subverted by other nefarious programs), it compounds the already mountainous pile of performance problems... The upside is that... uhm... well, you will probably have a harder time faking client-side gold that can't even be spent?

    Tbh there's only one potential upside..no rmt/gold sellers spamming in Velika or Highwatch

    there is a precisely 0% chance of this stopping/slowing gold selling spam.
