[GLITCH] fence and quota bug

So, this is probably old news to most euro partyers but I thought I'd explain to all the new euros or chinese-advocates who don't know what it is.
What this
glitch does is when 3 or more people are hit by the same skill and in those three, if there is 1 person or more with both
Fence and
Quota (warrior buffs), the whole party no matter who you are or where you are you'll die.
What happens is, there is a fence glitch where an insane number 1029934546 damage will appear in yellow over someones head. not sure why this happens, it just does. Normally this isn't a big deal, game doesn't see it as real damage.
1029934546However, pain quota for some reason sees it as real damage and what it does is it distributes all damage equally throughout the party, so basically the game is distributing 102354364 damage and killing everybody, this is only if the pain quota is on the person with fence.
1029934546 /
8=
128741818.25 for each person in the party
Great, so this is a real pain in the ass. especially in pvp, currently we're getting people in our union to send 1 copy/pasted letter to Joymax's bug report, once a day, every day, hoping they'll look into this and fix it at some later date.
We were hoping the SRF community would show interest in this issue as well and do the same. Some glitches are funny but this glitch is just a b1tch, let's bring an end to it guys.
I'll post an edited video of this glitch in action later.
credits : Avalon group effort, specially corrupt for making us notice the fence glitch.
This is what happened to us on a trade run, as you can see they died on the frigging camel.

Didn't it work when we hit only 2 people before though? I remember we killed those two warriors at the south gate aaaages ago when we were thieves doing this. Never thought it'd have to do with a combination of both, but what do I know. lol

I'll see if I can't get on for a bit after the inspection help out. Try 2 targets, on has Quota and Fence, the other is the warrior. Try it with on, try it with both, then try it with a third person buffed added. That should give a definitive answer for the amount of people necessary.

The sickest part about this bug is that when it occurs... people in town die too, as in when they're in the same party

first time it happened we thought someone found a sosun staff or some shit lolz

Ya, it's weird how far it reaches. ._. Like a coupl of guys were PvPing in Hotan while some of the party restocked, a few of us all sat and waited out in Takla when boom... we all just died... even on horses. XD

Fencing with PQ only works for grinding...
Just a rule of thumb, don't do PQ and Fence on same person in Wars/PvP/Job... Doesn't really matter how many gets hit with what, not really sure about that number you posted either... My theory is that the Pain Quota isn't coded properly for NPCs and Player Damages, accumulating damage then suddenly dispersing it some time later.

It was worse, I was like dead on the cammel... so bugged and my head was in the ground lol.
3x5* on the ground.

Another funny moment with this glitch was when I was doing some change in my storage, and next to me was Chemistry (his pt was @ gens) on a horse, and Boom, a lightning strikes him and he's dead on the horse LOL.

Another glitch. Go into DW and pick up those auto invite botters with exp dist party. Then go outside of town and get Pain Quota casted on you. Then have yourself nuked by a Wizard and the damage will travel to all party members no matter how far away from you they are. You don't lose any exp but it can be good for getting bots into town for a bot trap.

thats a brilliant idea, i strip down naked put on a pvp cape, and have one of our 80 wizzards nuke, dead botters, i'm pretty sure that 35% of that dmg is more then enough to kill them
