about the giveaways that are sometimes done on other sites

Hey, So when dirty bomb sometimes gets or does a giveaway on other sites, like the logitech, alienware or the fragger one and i know the last time it was done was like months ago. How are they going to protect the codes from being taken by some bots almost instanlty or making the page super slow to sell later on some sites? Captchta or something like that?

The codes won’t be worth anything.

yes I know but they are for sale on multiple sites for a bit. My concern isnt the price. It’s that the bots almost instantly grab all the codes so alot people can’t get any.

Pretty sure the last few giveaways haven’t had bot issues. Logitech required a Facebook profile, which is pretty hard to bot, and Alienware is so random to load, I don’t think a bot can even get through.

Also, the codes are, as mentioned, pretty worthless anyway.

Protecting the codes from bots is up to the sites distributing them I would think. What control does Nexon have over the Alienware or Logitech website?

Alienware was a disaster. They had to re-do it.

Yup the Bots did indeed jack over 9k codes for the Alienware Skin and it was redone with a different code input so they could not get jacked again and i think it went pretty smoothly.

I have also seen these Codes for sale on other sites, i encourage everyone NOT to buy codes like these as they have been freebies and basically are trying to steal your cash from their immoral actions! Greedy!! Yup, pretty much grinds my gears.
