    What I love is that people are still crying over your handling of the TW situation. I actually spent a few teles ranting about it a few minutes ago, and I had one RoC guy try to lecture me on how important TW was. XD

    Good times.

    Seriously people, count your blessings. We got our servers back in less than 24 hours and the economy stabilized. And then people start complaining over the details? Am I the only one seeing an eerie parallel to current US economic events? XD

    Praise him for? Those that sold gold for outrageous prices are still sitting on piles on coins that weren't supposed to be there. All that time to do a half-done job.

    I do admit the staff did stay on longer then they should have and do need a break. However I don't agree with the choice they had made in order to fix the issue. Not all of the glitchers were banned according to a few friends and I do not agree that those who took advantage of an glitch should keep their income they had made. As of now I just see prices going up from original price in AH. Hopefully people will make the right choice and fix the economy on their own instead of taking advantage. Thank you staff for taking the time, you deserve a rest, you'll need it for tomorrows complaints.

    b:bye

    GM, Mods, Developers, SleepTalkers, etc
    Worked really really hard to fix this issue.
    but.. wasn't good enough for most players..

    Easy solution like roll back would of been awesome.
    99% of players will agree to lose their grinding time, or 20dollar cash or even 40dollar cash if they can take that exploiters out.
    or.. mayb PWI doesn't run a backup system check for a day before or a patch before.

    Because anyone would of done a roll back instead of working massive hours fighting against mission impossible:(

    It's **** kissin son, **** kissin' and those who are still taking advantage of the exploit from the still glitched item still in game will be easily punished since the gms know exactly where to look to track it now. And people it's an IP ban+acct ban so no point in doing it on alts and mailing it to yourself. Though I'm sure somebody quitting who had a duke of roses could demolish the economy before their ban and scatter tons of coins.

    How would there be a lot of butt kissing threads if most people voted for the rollback? Most people do not agree for their decision also, but that doesn't mean they didn't try to do anything like most MMO's would do. I just know there are a lot of errors in the option they chose (however I also don't know how much control they have over things) and with such a fragile system there is not much room to make a mistake. So there is a lot of worry. As for their work it is not done, there will be much more to deal with tomorrow. Don't blame the staff for people doing what they do naturally when they see a open situation, that is just as wrong as the exploiters themselves.

    Problem is that with their current decision, a lot of dirty money is still on the server.

    But I doubt they'll change it sadly.

    They did what they thought was best. We'll see if they were wrong or not.

    TONS of GLITCHED coins remain on server, on the people that HAD GOLD and sold it to hackers for 400-500k a piece

    how is that a good job?
    A patch full of glitch,
    Makes my eyes twitch.
    Should i continue playing this game or switch,
    because this is a serious problem and not a simple itch.
    Some bug abusing noob gets rich,
    While a honest players get the ditch.
    Please rollback if you wanna enrich,
    or this game would just be a ****

    Horrible job, you should have just kept the servers down, it wouldn't make a difference to me at this point.

    Mm it is actually very easy to change your IP... so an alt wouldn't be out of the question. I felt the GM's did a pretty good job. Not a perfect job... some still keep a small fortune... but 10 billion coins are gone and no roll back.

    No single solution would have made everyone happy really, but I think their solution works quite well.

    So I'll say my thanks to all the people involved in working to get the issues resolved, especially the ones who lost sleep over it around the globe.

    Also a thank you to the GM's that came on the forums and kept us entertained during the downtime.

    Back to being in-game! b:cute

    Not with a hoarde of people walking around who can personally equip and fund a full guild of 200. Speaking of guilds....

    Edit: I do not think they did the worst job ever. I can see how much EFFORT they put into TRYING to restore things but THEIR DECISIONS did not fix everything. There are FACTORS they didn't consider yet, or perhaps don't care about but it is my opinion that they overlooked it. As such I'm hoping they fix it.

    1% of the people congratulating GMs on their work sincerely mean it.
    other 99% are ****ing sons of byches(female-sons included) who just won the perfect world lottery.

    balls to this game if its gonna become a private server for bug ****ing abusers.
