Talk:Party hat duplication glitch

From the RuneScape Wiki, the wiki for all things RuneScape

For your reading pleasure, I present the party hat duplication glitch. I could go into more detail, but it might start breaking Jagex rules if I go any more... Hyenastetalk 00:45, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

Wow that's really neat! I wish I could duplicate items hehe. Dreadnoughttalk
How would it break the rules pl0x? JalYt-Xil-Vimescarrot 07:41, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
It was revealed how the glitch was performed. It was by forcing the client to offer zero of an item in a trade. It hasn't been possible for years, so there's no harm in letting the word out :P
Many purple phats were deleted, but only in cases where people had huge amounts of them. Jagex didn't mind that the purple phat market was destroyed because they hated the rare market anyway.
It's kind of an interesting story :)--Wowbagger421 04:16, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
Jagex hated the rare market? I thought that by creating tradeable rares they were subtly endorsing it Chaoticar 04:32, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
They've said that they never intended to make the rares market (when they released the drops they said "while you could sell them to other playewrs, that's not in the christmas spirit" or similar) but I've never seen an official source for Jagex actually hating the market. People just assume it. 194.80.21.10 13:42, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Black book of RuneScape

A few years ago(2005/2006?) I found a website/forum called "the black book of runescape" written by sixfeetunder, giving amazing details about the dupe, and the banker killing. Not sure where to find it now, but it could definitely expand knowledge of this event.

[edit] Classified as glitching or hacking?

Since third party software was involved, shouldn't this qualify as a hack and not a glitch?

They used hacking to exploit the glitch, so it could be classified as both.  C Teng talk • review 01:12, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

"The Sixfeetunder Hack" doesn't say anything about what the glitch was all about.  C Teng talk • review 21:41, 30 November 2008 (UTC)
How about "The Sixfeetunder party hat hack"?File:Zamorak symbol red.svgRc 2112,STRENGTH THROUGH CHAOS talk!File:Zamorak symbol red.svg 21:44, 30 November 2008 (UTC)
Why would we use that name instead of "Party hat duplication glitch"?  C Teng talk • review 21:46, 30 November 2008 (UTC)

Isn't this more of a hack rather than a glitch as it used a third party software? --Flame Sage66 04:39, 14 December 2008 (UTC)
