Clean Slate Glitch?

So really what you've done is thrown all common sense out the window. I think it's pretty damn obvious Nexon didn't want to stick the Ifrit quest in my list for all eternity. It's not difficult to see that some of the stuff that goes on in the game isn't intended, yet you just want to look the other way and when it is finally announced you play the innocent act. Were those Chief Bandits in KMS justified collecting all those mesos with PickPocket just because it hadn't been announced as a glitch yet? By your logic, they should be able to keep it as long as it was obtained before it was announced. Because omg, how were they supposed to know snails weren't meant to drop hundres of millions of mesos? I'm saying it's pretty obvious when something is a glitch. You just choose not to accept it.

It's true common sense is required in order to find what's a glitch before it's ever declared. However, the example you used is much different than the BF glitch.

1. The BF glitch was harmful in a sense it allowed people to power level, but it did not break the game because no one got to 200, or even to high level 4th job through this glitch. It ruined Yellonde for a while, but server mess =/= game breaking.
2. The Pickpocket glitch. It's VERY obvious that this broke the game, because it caused there to be a ludicrous amount of money being generated that not even hackers could produce. This affected prices of EVERYTHING.
3. The White Slate glitch does not produce more mesos, and having more godly items available in the FM does not break the game either. Rather, it'll reallocate the mesos among more people (to those that managed to obtain and sell White Slates). If anything, it slightly decreases the meso supply because of tax, and in the off chance it blows up a godly item in the making, then there's more demand for said item/scrolls. This only affects a small area of the FM. Everything remains relatively untouched.
