Yup, and even if you guys say this variation is "new" and faster, it doesn't change the fact that there were already hackers doing this, so there was already a huge number of ores being forced into the market.
In windia at least, all the black crystal ores were 100k each right after that event that had the boxes and NX which gave mass amounts of taos. Wait less than one week and there are dozens of shops that have thousands of ores for 1k each... having been to sleepywood myself to see this thing happen, it was pretty obvious what the cause was. This was before this patch and this assumed "new" version.
It won't really affect the economy that much as ores have already been screwed, but when it comes to those hackers who run meso selling sites, there might be a problem since this would make it far too easy without increased risk from being at training spots.
