Worluk made a mutator (calls it Exterminator) that disables most of the bugs/exploits in RO. Info was posted about this in the ROL forums so this will probably become a required mutator for ladder matches. Here's the info that he posted...
^ Alot of people were peeved that TWI didn't take the chance to fix these exploits in their last update but now that worluk has taken the time to make a mutator and fix these issues in a round-a-bout and more difficult way ... will TWI have more imputus to clean up the bugs in RO, natively?

With the increasing number of friends of bug using there were two options to equal out those advantages: Explaining to each and everyone how to use them or simply fix the game to a level where those bugs would not be usable anymore.
We went with the latter. The result is the Exterminator. Beside fixing a wide variety of vanilla RO bugs in its first version this mutator allows server admins to force certain settings on the client, detects a variety of cheats and monitors players attempts to circumvent security measures.
The release will be in the next weeks and will be announced here.
