Dirty Items (from Glitch)

I agree the roll back is best

its ****ing unfair.. ill give it a few days.. if no rollback im quiting.. alot of people will

I'm just gonna wait for the etherblade server to start and start fresh there.

I'll wait to see. If the excess coin causes player-traded item prices and gold prices to inflate significantly, I'm probably outta here. The whole premise of a free-to-play game is that I can buy stuff with $$$ or by spending time grinding for in-game coin. If it suddenly costs a lot more coin to buy the same stuff because people with dirty money are bidding up the price, you've diminished the incentive to play it for free.

Personally, I think not doing a rollback for a bug as serious and as short-lived as this one has got to be the stupidest decision I've ever seen made by a gaming company. And I've been playing multiplayer RPGs since Ultima Online. It violates the most fundamental principle that makes multiplayer RPGs tick - that everyone has to play by the same rules. That's what makes it a persistent world, and not some episodic game like an FPS where you can change the difficulty settings each time you play. But hey, it's their company and their game, they can do what they want. I can only vote with my participation and my dollars.

Anyway, the market prices will tell how successful they were at stomping this out. If the prices don't change much, they got most of the bogus coin and items. If the prices (in coin) rise, then a significant amount of the dirty money is still in-game, and by that time it'll be too late for a rollback so the consequences will be permanent, and negative for everyone who's trying to play honestly.

Do the math 300M + Is pumped into the game each week from TW alone.
Now bring in the player base who NPC everything and do quests.
Well over 1billion is made each WEEK.
So a few people got lucky.... They'll most likely get tracked, I.E High amounts of spending.

Also learn that 1 gold = 100,000 - 105,000 Panther by default is 1m ^^
The fact people sell low is called free market, get use to it.

Not only did they take the C.Y.A. way out, they removed gold and coins from ppl who had them legit. My faction leader had gold and coins from our land on his acct. and they took it all, this was faction money and the gold bought before maint. was for charms for upcoming TW, how is that fair?

Thanks alot GM's for nothing but making sure PWI kept its profit, should have just done things right and done a rollback!!!

Of course the few remaining people with billions of coin will ruin the economy. How can anyone think it won't?! That and it's unfair to the people who were banned (because they got banned for doing essentially the same thing as the people who still have dirty money) and to the rest of the players who either by chance or by choice did not abuse the same glitch.

Yeah, submit a ticket

You guys need to think a bit before jumping the gun,the gm's did the most important bits an bobs first ie removing the coing/suspending the main offenders/fixing the glitched item and getting the servers up and running again,now that the servers are up everyones playing again,they can take their time and carefully scrutinize item signituares and see just who the items have been going too.

Course if a gm came here and said that was the end of it and no one else was to be punished...b:surrender
