As much as I disagree with Harrison most of the time, I agree with him/everyone posting here: He should get his overall back. This is a problem with Nexon, not Harrison and he should be compensated for it.
As for the topic of temporary locks, I remember talking to my parents a few weeks ago. They were telling me about how they had at a point in time bought an insurance that gives you $100,000 if by any chance something happened to you. If it doesnt happen to you, the monthly installments you put into the insurance has gone to waste. I argued that it was silly to buy something like that, as the odds of actually being able to claim that money at the end is low. However, my parents told me that while that is true, the money they paid into it gave them a peace of mind.
Even temporary, item locks provide a peace of mind till they disappear. That should be a given. The debate is whether they truly give you that peace of mind. As others above have mentioned, they could clean slate/dark scroll your item till it kabooms and do other things that makes the lock obsolete. If anything should be faulted about these locks, its that they arent foolproof, not the fact that your chances of getting hacked are low.
