I think almost everyone in this forum knows what this glitch is, and what effect is has done in the economy. The glitch has been around for over a year now, passing its anniversary this August. I would look for the exact date but it's pointless since it's been so long.
How has this glitch affected the economy over there in other worlds? There are several worlds, such as Scania and Bellocan for example, that are constantly disconnecting people that are attempting to run. While this problem hasn't been shown in Windia yet, I'm sure as time comes and the people willing to solo HT increase this will turn into a bigger problem. Several people think that this could also be a good thing, as it keeps competition low and keeps prices relatively stable since most people who can solo HT happen to know each other quite well.
I for one, think this glitch is stupid and I think its impact is worsening as other content makes characters stronger and more willing to participate in groups. Not only that but this lowers the chance for the average player to get their beloved Horntail card, leaving people with an unobtainable card in most cases (looking at you iAmFear/Steven). In the past it may have taken a full squad of 30 to take it down but with these updates Horntail seems like a joke to most people, albeit this isn't the case in all honesty. Chaos Horntail has also been screwed over seeing as you can't get drops unless you have 12 full people while it's dead.
There is however a thread on the subject over at Nexon forums, which I believe is getting a lot of attention for a Nexon forum thread and I think would end this glitch (hopefully) since it brings it to their attention.
tl;dr
ITT: How do you feel about this glitch?
