Unscheduled Server Maintenance - 1.26.2012

You guys should read this thread. Seems like a mod or something that's shining some light on the situtation.
In the same thread;

 Spoiler

(In response to the original post) Because of the severity of the duping, I would hope that it brings more of a reason for the removal of enhancement exploited items as many were further duplicated during the crashes. The sad fact is that with this type of crash, it is possible to take advantage of it without the use of hacking tools, so it has become much more widespread.

Again, because of the widespread effect of it, dupers will likely not be banned (although again, I have no say in how Nexon resolves it), although all of the items that have been duplicated (which hopefully includes all the previous enchanted items as well) will be removed.

That way players that took advantage of it will gain nothing out of it and will run the risk of losing their original item as well. The day exploited items are removed, it will cause great damage for hackers.

(In response to yours) Again, I cant say for Nexon, although as has happened with previous rollbacks due to crashes, there is no easy way to recover items for players separately besides rolling back the entire server. Items and player information are stored in a MYSQL database, which includes past items from previous days.

This is the same reason why it has taken Nexon awhile to respond and work with players that were hacked due to the MTS exploits months back, as each case involves time to work with the player.

-sorry for the delay in response, that was A LOT to type haha.. -

Though not mentioned in that USC notice and it's probably a copy-paste one from the previous one, but here's hoping that they will be doing something about all the dupes that came out of it?
