    What, if anything, are you doing about accounts that have 10+ Million AD? Even if they did not exploit, they profited from the exploiters. If someone pays me in counterfeit money, I am not allowed to keep it.

    I dunno about anyone else, but I noticed it was all stuff I've never wanted and it can't be traded of course because then we'd affect the market. Truthfully I could care less. I just want a bug free AH back up and running that is the biggest nuisance right now.

    problem:

    1) AH item sold between 5:30AM - 12:30PM
    2) AH item went back into AH listings
    3) AH item got sold today got 1 AD (worth 1M) (even tho AH has been down)
    4) AH has been down for 3 days, should not be working...
    5) AH was down but timer was not.
    6) Received mail with 1 Astral Diamond since item got sold.

    Problem.

    Pretty sure I posted that this exact thing was going to happen before they patched it saying they should just return all items to owners. Bravo.

    Players are calling me stupid and such because I put the item for 1, when I have been doing this for a long time I never had a problem since I would always check before the item was sold and relist it at lower buyout...

    To make matters worse, ppl on the receiving end lost out too. I legitimately won several bids during that timeframe, received the said items, and the items were of course gone after rollback. Its unlikely I will win the same items again at such decent prices.

    Essentially, the only ppl that made out well in this whole ordeal were the cat burglars. They made $$$ on all sides of all transactions. The sad part is they are apparently getting away with it according to THIS POST.

    I am calling for a wipe and have not exploited nor have i been banned.

    I am looking at the prices of everything and its nuts.

    The economy is ridiculous currently.

    Someone trolled reset the diamonds but actually it might not be a bad idea. I just too many would lose out diamonds wise but a server wipe levels all back to square one and levels the playing field completely.

    I am not trying to be antagonistic. i can see the other side. I am 50 i have built up 500k diamonds. i never bought a founders pack. For me a wipe would be a substantial loss but would put my confidence back in the company

    And when another exploit , or bug comes out your back to whining like a 12 year old catholic school girl , the game economy is going to crash anyways..... Bots will crash the game economy at launch anyways so stop being such a idiot and play or move on....

    why cant I transfer my zen from my wallet to neverwinter

    im accually glad I put the pricy thing I posited up there (a wedding top bought the pack with zen from a card sold the mask for 500k in 3 min) with a minimum bid of 500k. Yes it may have been cleaner if they just returned our items. Im not really gonna sweat it. posting anything on the auction house in this game is a chance roll. Lucky for everyone AD in this game aren't that hard to earn.

    I am curious to know how my main character (created during the two-day headstart) got deleted during this? I still have my other characters, just that one got deleted. No, I didn't delete him, not even by "accident". It's too involved to have done that "accidentally". I have sent in a support ticket (through in-game methods), but have not received a response as of yet. When I try to check the status of the ticket, I constantly get "error loading page" nonsense. No, my internet has nothing to do with it.

    What is going to happen to items sold during the rollback? They took my item and ad. The faq never mention about returning items on the consignment....

    So I lost the 2 sales of runestones on the AH, and hence the currency obtained from which I bought a bunch of profession assets, I feel the sale of these stones whose auctions have since expired were legitimate, now I am worse off, and the caturday pack is a joke, the xp booster says account bound, which it isn't, can't send it to another character on same account.. so it's character bound.. only the recall scrolls are any good, the rest is garbage

    I believe the rollback was the right idea.

    For those who think it is not, take note of my case: As a founder, the deal for the founder's pack is the 5 day access, on top of cool toys. Because of this, knowing there will not be a wipe, I took off 1 vacation day from work to play this game with my spouse for fun because we were so excited. That being said, how are they going to be able to pay for all those time I have spent if they wiped the characters? Should I expect that they will pay me for 1 day's worth of vacation, how are they going to refund me that time? Will they let the founders play 5 days by themselves and then bring in the F2P after and make them wait even longer?

    Wipe is just not the right thing to do. They kept their word on what they promised as part of the founder's pack and the service. I'm glad of their decision for the rollback instead of the wipe. It doesn't fix everything but it is the best way for them to have handled that issue in my opinion. I just wished the cape can be made into a costume or something, it looks cool :cool:.

    Not only is the wipe a bad idea , its a f***king moronic idea .... Waaa the economy do a google search "Neverwinter bot" ..... How many bots are already in the game , the economy is going to be wrecked until boting is addressed , Bots can run unlimited accounts , farm unlimited AD , and post it in the market .... For those of you who think a game company can fix this I provide you with examples: Ultima online (1996) couldn't fix bots , World of warcraft (12 million subs , $250m a month , $360m a qtr , couldn't fix bots) , Diablo 3 sold 10 million copies at launch , couldn't fix bots to save there RMAH , somehow you think you'll be able to protect this economy I got news for you once this game launches China will destroy it so fast you'll think its a Ford pickup truck along side of the road....

    if i will repeat sorry but no time for reading 2k posts.

    I wonder what will happen to my auction, which i started from 1 AD and someone gave an offer 7 AD (e.g. something worth far more than 7 AD ). There was no time for anyone else to won the auction by offering more AD for it. Someone will be lucky to buy my item below its value?

    Who can predict that AH went offline ? i choose auction for 5 days but it continued about 3-4 hours. If i had knowlegde about AH i wouldnt take that sort of auctions. Its not my fault that AH is not working how it's supposed to.

    I wonder what our admin stuff want to say about it ?

    You think you have it bad. Imagine the ticket backlog they must have due to the AH/AD cat-astrophy .

    Instead of time limited bans, they should have made them help work the tickets until the backlog was caught up...that would actually help everyone.
