Dupes

One of the things that make Oldfag.org a unique anarchy server is its (almost) no-dupe environment. From the beginning, the server owner, John200410, has been very adamant about restricting dupes. This means patching them ASAP, or, if one gets leaked for too long, the server gets rolled back. Despite his efforts, there has been many claims of people successfully duping, and more likely than not, some of these are true, and duped items have gotten past the filter. Here are a few well-known claims, or actual instances of duped items.

## Rail/Carpet Dupe

The Rail/Carpet dupe is the only allowed item dupe on Oldfag, allowing you to infinitely dupe carpets and any rail variation. The dupe is immensely useful for making mapart, otherwise lacking in utility. Duping machines require two or more slimeblocks, thus slime can be pretty sought after.

## TNT Duping

For a while, you were allowed to dupe TNT in its entity form using this dupe. This was patched once around December/November, unpatched, but then apparently patched again in March, except in its flying machine form.

## Book Dupe

In early August, a user known as Inzoide\_ claimed to know of a dupe involving shulkers of book and quills. He then claimed just a few hours later that it was patched.

## Chunk Deletion Error Dupe

During August 17th, a Chunk error would plague the server, causing all the loaded chunks around you to randomly turn into new chunks, all your blocks gone. It would happen a few times, and when it did, if you left the area, and came back after a short interval, it would be reverted back to the chunks that were there before. This could be abused. By destroying blocks, and then right as the chunks started reverting, leaving the area and coming back, you would have identical copies of the blocks. However, when the error would trigger was unpredictable, chaotic, and random. Aswell, for the dupe to be successful, you would need to take the items before the Chunk error glitch kicked in, in the short intervals between, otherwise one of the Server's anti-dupe plugins would kick you. Despite all this, duping was still possible, and GeNkRaZyKiLLeR claimed to have accidentally duped 3 stacks of oak leaves while working on his ghast farm.

## The Rollback

On September 3rd, due to saving issues with the servers drive, it appeared as if people were able to dupe items, and many duped extraneously. However, according to John, after this saving glitch was patched, no items were technically duped because the server was not actually saving anything. Regardless, John had to rollback the server to two days ago, on September 1st.

## Armor Dupe

On October 10th, SnappyHiker discovered an armor/off-hand dupe involving flame arrows and tick-perfect timing. He was able to dupe his set of Prot 4 armor with it. Some other people attempted it and may have succeeded, but overall this dupe wasn't very widespread. Likely due to telling the nature of the dupe in whispers, and catching the attention of John by posting the dupe on the subreddit, John disabled fire damage a day later, and then proceeded to patch the dupe. This dupe may have been known for a while as claimed by Meerkats member Sirsting.

## Pearl Dupe

On November 27th, a pearl dupe was leaked, and quickly patched, while also indirectly patching pearl chunk loading for an amount of time. Apparently, Nwop and his basemate got two duped kits before it was patched.

## Temp Map

Most hacks and dupes were allowed on the Temp Map, hence a few people have reporting duping, including Namy and Afdud.

## Restart Dupe

Around November and December many people reported being able to perform a "Restart Dupe", where one could dupe an item/shulker when the server restarted. John was notified and was originally adamant about there being no solution, but apparently LolRiTTeR proposed one that worked. Due to only some people trying it and its slow nature, not much was apparently duped.

## Faggot Dupe

DezzDox, Dainert, and Cacti were found mass duping, starting January 26th. The story of it can be found on the Faggot Dupe page.

## Troll2001 Claimed Dupe

TheTroll2001 has claimed to know another dupe, and duped extraneously with it, including dubs of Obby Shulkers to create a massive obsidian pyramid. He apparently uses an alt with a vpn to go undetected, and that John has told him to simply keep the dupe to himself and he will not try to find his stash/patch the dupe.
