Coin Exploit

It was minimal. Effecting a small set of event items and a scroll that was already deflating is rather small in an economy of thousands of items. Yes, those items aren't worth anything, but the hackers are going to get hell-banned and permabanned on their accounts and the prices will hopefully rise again. If not then, then oh well. Cheaper items for everyone, which many won't complain about. Regarding merching, when you do it you should understand the risks of things like deflation due to hacking, especially when an event item is something like a chaos scroll.

And at the billions made overnight, people need to realize that there was more pushing mesos around than making them. Tax also took out on the large movement of mesos. I'm actually willing to bet money that a Meso Sack event introduces more mesos into the economy than this hack did.

You say pushing meso around, but isn't that just buying/selling. There are hackers that made billions, especially if they got into it early and sold them at 1-8mil each. There's always tax, so that means nothing, and its really not that significant if they're selling it for 1-8mil each and it costs them some arrows.

Just towards your claim that it was minimal, before this event I was selling 50%s at ~120mil each, and just yesterday I sold 50%s at 190mil each, yeh real small impact to the economy... It put the economy on steroids, with the hackers having all the buying power. Also, from what I saw, it didn't make really anything cheaper, work gloves went up 40mil in 2 days, the NX ratio in Bera was at 25:1 in MTS (i expect some deflation now, but the economy was still hugely and sharply affected).

We hope that most players will do the right thing and remove the items if they know they are exploited.

This is a epistemological question, I take the position that I do not know anything unless it is directly perceived by me. So for me, it is impossible to know if they are exploited, unless I was the one doing it.
