Meso Exploit & Resolution #2 - Chameleonic - 2010-11-11

Nexon Wrote:Maplers,
Today at 2:30 PM Pacific we reopened the game after a long maintenance to remedy a meso exploit threatening the Maple economy. Unfortunately, soon after the game reopened another exploit was discovered that introduced unhealthy amount of mesos into the economy through Free Market, forcing us to bring down the game servers again at 5:45 PM, Pacific Time.
As you already may know, introduction of such mesos have damaging effects on the game economy such as raising the cost of your in-game items, which is why we have made the difficult decision to restore the MapleStory servers to an earlier state: Monday, November 8, 3 AM Pacific (6 AM Eastern). This is 12 hours prior to the first restore point. Please understand that this measure is our best solution against the exploited mesos to minimize its crippling effects. We know you will not be pleased about this decision and we understand those of you who logged in during the time will be greatly disappointed to lose your efforts.
We will do our best to ease the change by performing the following:
* 5,000 Maple Points to players who logged in between 3 AM – 3 PM Pacific (6 AM – 6 PM Eastern) on Monday, November 8.
* 5,000 Maple Points to those who logged in between 2:30 PM - 5:45 PM Pacific (5:30 PM – 8:45 PM Eastern) on Wednesday, November 10.
* NX spent during mentioned times above will be refunded in the type originally spent.
* All Cash items will be extended by 72 hours.
* Compensation events will be posted within the next 24 hours.
The game will reopen at approximately 7 AM Pacific (10 AM Eastern) on Thursday, November 11.
Please accept our sincerest apology and know that we will work through the night to ensure safe and timely reopening of MapleStory.
-The Maple Team-
Note: Please know efforts of today’s compensation will be affected by the new restore point and this notice is the official compensation policy. Thank you!
Also we ask of you to keep all discussions regarding this issue to this thread only to minimize the amount of threads and potential spam on the forums. It also allows us to read comments and concerns better. Thank you!
Only 5K maple points is atrocious. It should be more like 20k for every account regardless of whether you logged in during the specified times.

I wonder if this'll keep happening until the game's back to it's Beta state.

Hm, at this rate I really don't mind if the servers are down all week if I can net 35k Maple Points for free.
I think Nexon has handled this problem pretty well, but I can't say that for everybody else though.
Guess my friend can level to 200 for a 3rd time!

I don't see why the existence of a second exploit made it necessary to move the save point back another 12 hours.
And yeah, 5k mp (or 10k? or 15k if you were on early Monday *and* after rollback Wednesday?) is nowhere near enough for this level of aggravation.

Haven't played for weeks, don't plan on playing until Big Bang.
Best decision I've made involving this game.

Some of us believe that the first rollback wasn't far enough since the damage started before then. Best to be safe than sorry, I'd say.

They should do a rollback to the patch that introduced dual logging. That's when this mess all started.

Further back would be even better. What was the NX:Meso ratio anyways before the exploit came and trolled everything?

Those who logged in on the 9th already got 5k maple points.
Oh wait, those will be rolled back. And then restored? Or not, since Maple Points are in the Maple database and not the NX database?
Wow, I don't envy the people Nexon put in charge of making sure NX of all kinds is properly restored.

If I didn't spend any NX, I get to keep it right? It won't get rolledback or anything retarded like that?
