    I am not sure I understand how selling gold is a glitch.
    I have no idea what this exploit is that everyone is talking about, but I bought an ultimate game card today to get one of the new clothing items from the boutique but when I signed into the game I heard others talking in world chat about the gold being sold for as much as 700k each, I was just thinking if gold sells for so much why spend 5 gold on a new dress to sell for 500k when I can get more coins from just one gold. So instead of buying clothing from the item shop I put some gold in auction house. I don't know what gold normally sells for as I have not tried to sell any before today, I just thought hey at those prices it's more profitable to sell the gold than use it to get clothes to sell. I don't see how this is an exploit or why some are saying people who tried to buy or sell gold should be banned. My gold didn't even sell by the way because I had only put it up for sale a few minutes before the servers went down. I guess my point is just because people were trying to sell gold to make coins doesn't mean they should be banned, people by clothing from the boutique all the time and turn around and sell that to other players, isn't that the same thing?

    Why do you want to place the blame on someone? I know, this is an easy way to blame people you don't like so you can kick them out of the game. But seriously, grow up

    I do not know the underlying structure of the game. If it is a database such as Orical or DB2 or most any other, likely they can roll back only bad transactions rather than all transactions. I am not sure I would penalize the abusers other than to reverse the transactions. Good testing is needed because the roll backs will include Real $$ transactions with gold. Then people may have bought extra gold to exploit the bug that may need to be refunded. Persoanlly, just not refunding money and leaving it in gold format should be punishment enough for the abusers. Think, you buy 100 gold to exploit and now you lose the coin and have your 100 gold back and a VISA bill for it.

    Smart **** Divine dude.. listen the problem was patch based to begin with and thats what people abused (as far as i know).

    So nothing to do with Flex and flex has a kirin... why would he want your panther? and for that much money? Get over yourself... really, and stop posting useless things.

    Keep your temper gents and misses :)

    I don't know much about game developping, but there must be some sort of DB infrastructure underneath it. No idea what it is, I suppose it is custom designed for a game of this size. They definitly should be able to log everything for financial and tax purposes, so a rollback of only bad transactions should be possible I guess. b:thanks

    Is it just me or is having the server down for hours on end on a FRIDAY (One of the biggest gaming days of the week) not conclusive to a good business plan? Even if it is to address a bug shouldn't that have been dealt with before the patch was released?

    Because they are not adults, and know nothing better to do.

    I, on the other hand, am an adult, so I am able to commit adultery.

    See you all in a couple of hours :)

    Not envious, just... currently aware of how badly the in-game economy is screwed. Rollback please. :)


    You know who really is in a bad situation with this?

    Those who buy gold with real money but who were NOT online when the gold price shot up. For those I feel dearly, as they are in a disatvantage to all those who buy gold but WERE online and could make some extra coins.

    To all those who do not pay/deposite towards the game - the economy will just stabilize, and it will be just like always: some have more coins and better things, as they pay real life money towards PWI.

    This is not meant in any nasty way, many can not deposite, beauty of this game that it is free in that way, but if a rollback should be called for, then it should come from paying players, as they are the ones most upsettingly hit if they were not online at the time, and those I'd fully understand saying they want a roll-back. Everybody else should just remember they are playing a game they pay nothing for, a beautiful game, an amazing game, and they have lost nothing today in value in any shape or form, in opposition to depositers, who now could be shorter in coinage compared to other depositers, and the moment you begin to pay real life cash for something, it becomes more serious, more passionate.

    Are we who deposite nuts to do so? Spending real money on a game?
    Well, yes, maybe we are, but we keep a game like this on the net, because we love to play it, and through that others who love it can play too. We get some benefits through that, but those are definitely deserved, and gold prices have been dropping. Are players who play for free complain about that?? No, they WANT gold and item prices to drop, totally forgetting that some in this game have to pay for it, or else there simply would be no game >.>

    Those who exploited the glitch, if there rly was one, were in the wrong, but don't envy those who have made coins by selling gold. Or are you envying them also for the hours of real life work they put in to earn their dollars and pounds and euros they spend here? ^_~
