Thank you for this! When I read the words "escape goat", I laughed until I cried! Best thing I've read all day!
I'm seriously looking into buying my own escape goat at the moment. I think a White Shorthaired goat will suit me nicely - although the narcoleptic ones are almost as entertaining as your comment. : D
I guess all of this drama about AD/Zen exploits took your attention from how "unaffected" dungeon mechanics were. Did you forget that still 80% of the dungeons and their bosses are exploitable still? Did you forget how every class has broken skills, passive/innate or the like? Debate still out there as to if aggro is broken between GFs and DCs respectively or if this is working as intended.
Just thought I would remind you of these "little" mechanics that aren't "game breaking". If you still need a good laugh, reread some of the previous patch notes. There might be one actual "game fix" but always a fix related to PWI increasing and/or keeping their profits incoming and fluidity in those regards. (IE gateway introduction and updates > class/game mechanic issues).
Believe it or not, just because end game dungeons and bsoses are exploitable doesnt mean that more than a fraction of the population is actually using those exploits. I know thats probably hard to believe...
Game breaking= you try to log in, and can't. Not, "my items i worked so hard for have no value in currency anymore and if someone wanted to they could exploit a boss to kill it"
So over 10 hours later and they are working on a plan.
Sounds like bull**** to me.
Why the F didn't the south park mmo come out on time....
Please remember that most of those 10 hours was gathering information. They need to know what the impact on the economy really was to be able to take a proper course of action.

I don't understand why all the ppl on the forums are attacking eachother. You should only be angry at the buttholes that hacked/duped all the rest of us are just real ppl trying to find something to do with our time.
Let's break up this sewing circle plz and start murdering things.
As straight forward as this plan is you won't see anything even remotely like it go into action because PWI and Cryptic are proving that so long as they get paid they don't give a dam about the players at all.
Oh, they're still making money when no players are playing, and there is widespread uncertainty that the game will survive this debacle?... Oh...

Has anyone else noticed that the forum server is loading quicker now. Makes me wonder if they are not in fact brings servers back up soon. Or maybe its just that I have sat here for 5+hrs waiting for the server to come back up.

All humans care about is being herd nothing more no one has anything good to say in this place we call earth and if you do your just BSing everyone
No, it won't repair itself. See, here's the thing.. AD is like the american dollar. It only has VALUE because we assign it a value. That value is based on what people are willing to trade for it. i.e. you can buy a nice car for about $45,000.00. (I bought a 2012 Highlander). I worked about 3 months to be able to pay for that car (overseas war zone), so the car is worth 3 months of my labor to ME. Now, look at it this way. Say my neighbor created $10,000,000.00 dollars from nothing. He worked ZERO hours to get that money, so toyota sold him the car, and I would end up paying $90,000.00 for the same car, since toyota jacked up the price. Now, I had to work 6 months for the exact same thing. That's what EVERYONE who sold items for MILLIONS of AD just did. They sold their stuff to people who CHEATED and duped the AD. But, their money isn't REAL. The side effect, is that it effectively priced all the REAL workers out of the game, since we would have to work MUCH longer to get the same thing.
Having said that, the ONLY solution is a complete wipe. Wipe out ALL AD transactions, refund all the ZEN, starter pack AD, and start fresh. That's the ONLY way the 'economy' can recover. If only 1% of the cheaters keep their stolen 100 Million AD, then it will just come back and ruin the economy again.
Close, but there's still the issue about all the gear that may have changed hands, and accumulated to people who have profited from the issue. Both the gear from in-game, and stuff from cash shop / ad purchases. Unless you meant a full wipe of everything - including all items in the game.. in that case yes, it's true. Of course it won't happen, like has been stated multiple times.
Since a bunch of exploiting <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font> got the server shut down all day, can you please get a exp potion or something to make up for the day lost?

Hello, posters, look at this thread, now back to me, now back to this thread, now back to me. Sadly, this thread isn't about me, but if you take offense to this post then it could be. Look down, back up, where are you? You're still on this thread, with me, the man you could be annoyed at. Look at your hand, what's this thread about again? Back to me, I know what it is, it's support tickets in need of resolution to log into that thing you love. Look again, the tickets are about Astral Diamonds. Anything is possible when you're reading a post written by me. I'm on a forum.

Escape Goat should be an Epic pet.

Sorry, thats not game breaking. Try again.
