I'm going through the list now, Unidentified Love Letters too, so if those become cheap/plentiful again, this exploit is presumably why.
Mesoranger Android coupons  why can't those be a quest reward from Omega Sector. They look so cool.
All the different types of Miracle Cube fragments, those are potentially problematic.
NEBULITE BOXES. DAMN IT.
Additional dungeon entry tickets (PB, Zakum, HT, VL, Empress), MMBs, Trait Boost potions, character slot expansion coupons.

There needs to be a rollback since there's a ridiculous amount of mesos in the economy now. Any mesos anyone had before are now worthless.

The miracle times already happened. If they roll them back, people who had good luck would rage.

Gah, I forgot the damage was already done before the Aussie miracle time! I guess it's time to ask, now what? GMS hasn't been particularly through-out with item cleanups from past incidents after all and even a chain ban might not capture everything since they had plenty of time to spread things about.
Just another of those times when more secure patrol might have helped though that's too late now.

I posted this 3 days ago, and I guess nothing was done.
Seems like Nexon needs the exploits to come to surface before they can even patch it. It's pretty much unavoidable until hackers leave pomegranate alone.

Yes, it was. I doubt most people can use it, but im pretty sure its public.
[MENTION=2375]Mazz[/MENTION]; why would they bother creating nebulite boxes when they can create specific nebulites (that sell for more)?

Because they can't create specific nebulites, that isn't how it works.

Zerard Wrote:Can't mass bannings take the place of a rollback? Seriously, people being turned into Phantoms is no cause for rollbacks but mesos are? Exploited generated items is easily deleted/removed from the game by Nexon. Exploited meso is far worst. It can pineapple up the economy by a pomegranateload, they can buy out the entire FM if they felt like it. That can only be fixed with rollback.
Not to mention, exploited meso has a great chance of causing hell bans to innocent players that were bought out by exploited meso, so I suggest you all take down your stores and wait this out.

I hate how hackers like to think they are doing a "nice" thing by releasing these hacks publicly. There was a video on how to do it, with instructions, and he said "have fun!"
Like seriously? just looking at the youtube comments you can tell there is a whole community of hackers just trying to find ways to ruin this game for us. I can never understand the mentality of hackers, it's sickening.

Everyone keeps talking about the economy, but if this was never public released the ones that knew about the hack would have inserted mesos in to the economy and no one would be the wiser. This got release before they can really profit from it. Also seeing that they have to sell the items to the NPC which I'm pretty sure nexon keeps a log of they will track down the hackers. Also the items they have to actually sell them in the FM unless they want to make quick money just to get chain banned on Monday. Take down your items that are worth 200m+
Nexon is not going to rollback. When public dupe was out everyone was doing it which was a huge impact but its only a few . a max of 30 people top actually have their own editor. Half those people are the same people threw out the servers they just change their name

That's an enormous amount of mesos going into the economy from out of nowhere. And I doubt Nexon will ban all of FM.

They hellbanned everyone who received hacked mesos from FM sales with the original donation hack for weeks, fucked up the quests and skills when they unhellbanned, took the hacked meso and never gave the items back either, Nexon are quite happy to adopt a scattergun approach with bans and then ignore you via feedback afterwards.

Oh well at least it solves the problem...
Then again, closing MS completely forever would also solve the problem.

All of FM? Don't you mean those that bot for spots? Everyone keeps talking about the scenarios that could be happening which is not happening I check the FM last night when it was released and to now. Its all the same items un sold. Why waste your time buying out a whole FM when most of it is junk? Stop blowing this scenario up. Hackers want to spend mesos on the high valuable stuff which will take days to get not waste mesos on buying your maple leaves
I know this item gen is bad, but not everyone is able to do it. The hackers that can do this are the "known" "infamous" "pain in the ass" hackers.
Also for this to work they need a brand new nexon account that was made in April to do this. How many hackers actually foreseen this and made new accounts at that time? They are probably going threw all their accounts and seeing that none of them are fitting the required criteria. In addition to the account being made in april they need the value pack which nexon give out unopen. How many would actually not open a free item?

If that has ended, and people can't get the package by creating an account today, the damage is likely going to be a lot less severe than people expect.

Always somethin'. Why are these items even obtainable in the game if they aren't in use for the events and such.
I have always wondered what would make someone release extremely profitable exploits such as this to the public?
Hopefully there wasn't too much damage done to the economy.

I've always wondered what point your life has to be at where you crave attention from an online hacking community.
