inb4 50% scroll fix. Really that's all I can think of right now. Unless it has something to do with the server crashes as of late.

I've gotten my DB to 62 THREE times tonight. -_- This crap ate 2 hours of my 2x card. (I can only train at night/in the mornings due to my sister's torrenting.)

Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised honestly. I mean it's starting to spread to Khaini at a fast rate and Broa just got its first RB Crash.

Khaini just crashed again, so yea. I´m gonna blame fawktard dupers for now.

Windia randomly experienced a random spawnless moment for about 2-3 minutes about two hours ago where every map would be completely empty and buff icons wouldn't fade. It was kinda weird seeing an entire map of oblivion 4 totally empty. Probably unrelated though.

Broa just crashed a second time.

Why would there be a rollback? There's already been plenty tonight.

Bye 50% scroll glitch.

Anyone care to explain how dupers can crash the server?
Unscheduled Maintenance 08.05.2010 - LegendGospel - 2010-08-05
=O At least I managed to farm 25 scrolls and spread them in little quantities to tons of mules.

the idea is that whoever is doing this is putting the items they want into storage (or where ever is safe) and then effectively DDoSing the server, or overloading it to the point where it crashes and thinks the max number of players are in the world. after it goes live again, a rollback will have occured in the typical vulnerable areas while other places like the MTS or storage are safe.
purely speculation.
but it does seem that after each of these rollbacks the number of rare items increases. the first time there were stacks of 99 chaos scrolls.

So, these guys could be potentially sued for that. Why are they still free to do it?
Even if they're using a proxy, that doesn't mean it's impossible to identify them.

to do a DDoS(Distributed Denial of Service), you have to make a lot of connection to the server to the point it can't handle anymore connection and crash, its like when there is too many people accessing sw.net, and you get that message, server too busy. so its probably a virus that is spread to a lot of computers, and the hacker remotely tell the virus to connect to nexon server, making it crash, it if we are talking about ddos atack against nexon server.

What the hell is the glitch? The event works exactly as advertised. I'm tired of people speculating about the removal of this event.

assuming that it is malicious persons doing this it is not likely that nexon would publically announce any action they intend to take against them. short of someone stepping forth and taking responsibility for the recent events with proof or nexon admitting this was their fault, it's quite likely we will never know the cause.
