I cannot find it on the forums and it says no results when I search for it.

Probably closed and removed. Why do you need it so badly?
Thinking about doing a chargeback and wanted the documentation. Undecided right now though, depends on if they actually ban the exploiters or cover it up. And of course a character wipe since the economy is trashed.

If a user has proof someone is exploiting, they should write a ticket to Support and let PWE handle with those people.
Games will never give you a list of banned people. That would open them up to legal liability and being sued so will never see list of who was banned nor will the game ever tell you they banned people.

In defense of the person who wrote it yesterday, if he had not posted stuff yesterday I doubt this would be a high priority for PWE.
they don't need a wipe. as stated by the admin. they are going through logs and deciding on the best way to handle it on a per account basis.
Wrong. But very self righteous.

Did I say I wanted a list of people banned?
No.
However, if they say "We banned 300 accounts for exploiting in this manner" well, that would be good news.
Also be aware that doing a chargeback on a game account can result in wire fraud charges being filed against you.

They will never even tell you that. It would be satisfying to see but I have never ever seen a game do even that.

I said I was UNDECIDED.
And I needed documentation.
I have done nothing. Shoot guys, I didn't exploit, all I wanted were the posts from yesterday which are seemingly now unavailable.
Then you're not looking very hard.
Blizzard, NCSoft and a whole mess of MMO devs have all publicly discussed mass bannings.
EDIT: 30 seconds on google:

60k WoW account ban announced BY Blizzard.

Ha ha ha - good joke.
Wait, you are serious?
Not to mention PunkBuster who lists not only names, but account identifiers and reasons.
That doesn't mean that they don't need a wipe, they're considering their options that's all.
This is an open beta. Start treating it like one.
It'd <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font> off WAY too many people who put money into the game.
Sadly won't happen. Noone will get banned. The Exploits people are currently still running will take another week to be fixed. The economy will be far out.
I doubt they have the balls to reroll as well. This game is done in it's current state.

Given the trend of “that’s not my job” going on at Cryptic and PWE I wouldn’t count on disciplinary action unless there happens to be a dev standing there at the time AND the exploit happens to tick him or her off. But just look at the current state of monitoring, players do all the chat banning. People just sat around AFK in pvp until literally hundreds of pages went up about it. Even the GF bug lasted until people started putting up screenshots and videos of it in action.
So we know that shining a brilliant youtube light on an exploit gets some attention, forum posts less so and in game tickets go into the “entirely debatable but somewhat dubious” category. Those are just things they are made to do, forced to address to avoid looking like a bevy of clowns all trying to claim shotgun at the same time. Actually keeping track of anything other than the flow of Zen and AD? I would be very surprised.
So it might be useful for you malcontents to take note of just what people get the bans for and what they don’t. Because that’s a good indicator of what is being watched and what is just not important. However, to the dev’s advantage, who can perpetrate such an exploit and not boast about it? If no one made in issue out of one-shotting huge mobs it would still be happening. Vanity ripens into hubris. And hubris is just the sort of low fence the staff cannot help but trip over.
But unless the exploit actively puts the player’s names up on the screen in 24 point bold white on black text to exclaim to the entire world “I did this WHOOOOO it was me YEAH!” Don’t count on staff action. They will close down the exploits and what more do you want and move along citizen.
Move along.
If they do a full wipe, then ill leave.
SImple because i payed for more storage and others.
And if that would go away, i would go back to DDO or simmilar.
SO i dont think they do wipe ( hope ), but lets see -> its a greeady f2p world outthere.
SO wipe might be planned just to get those extra bucks from another foolish soul.
I have invested money in the game and do not care to make a rollback. It would be the most fair, took just 15 days of play, we will not lose much.
Posts like that raise the eyebrows of newcomers, and they surely wouldn't want that.
A bit of nostalgia for the old timers.

Blizzard & other companies have made such announcements. Reporting that you had a problem & have taken steps to correct it does more for customer morale than sweeping both problem & correction under the rug & pretending it never happened.

Let the words be yours, I'm done with mine ...
Yeah, especially since they will refund us everything anyway.
They'll ban your account if you do; from all PWE games.
