QFEA quick fix for dual core users was to set the game to run off 1 core. I've seen what the OP mentioned first hand on a PvE server, and it was no speed hack. It was a problem with their AMD 4200+ and EQ2.
I can't believe people still have the heart to mention this. We all know about the dual-core bug, we have all seen it. It has NOTHING to do with the hacking we are talking about:
1) you cannot turn the dual core bug on and off as you will. Yet, it is obvious that some people are able to not warp for 90% of the fight and then start warping as they are about to die. When it happens, with the same person, 5,10,20 times in a row, you have to start wondering...
2) Can't you simply search the web a bit? It doesn't take long to find out that there are hacks out there... Maybe that would make for a more educated comment...
Nothing personal, my friend. I am just sick and tired of people coming to tell me it is a bug, when, well, it obviously isn't. If it wasn't against EULA, I could post dozens of links to places you can download a hack to reproduce that "bug". Go and look for them, please.
Plus, we all know it, you can induce lag by dragging windows. Is it a bug? Well, yes. Is it used to exploit... sure.
