All item duplication exploit (do not name players please)
Stormlord Alex
Don't worry, Wolf - there's gonna be no rollback, Gaile's already confirmed that.
There's just shitloads of bans being handed out.
Btw... that font is really hard to read.

Sorry dude, i desagree
"...Why are you so concerned about Herb or anyone else like him that loves to collect? How does it affect you? It is not I, or anyone else that is upset by your words, it is you who is upset enough to post said words..."
You make me laugh a lot, you have a bad build I would say......You show me your weakness.
I said what I think about the WHOLE situation, Herb knows a lot and you dont OWN the truth (someone mentioned that the duped item is called ARMBRACE OF TRUTH... really funny). Thats all.
Anet is wise, and will do the maximum to exterminate those evil "players"....whoever they are LOL

Wow how can you ban people for this? It's your mistake @Anet not theirs. If a bank blew up and $50000million dollars were all over the floor, would everyone leave it and not pick it up? Its human nature, and your banning people for that.

A-Net are well within their rights to hand bans out like candy.

But in what way, what-so-ever, would we give a darn about who reported Chunky Monkey? You want a cookie for what you did? Think you're special or something? Well, face facts - you're not. You're one in the crowd. As a wise man once said (around 5 minutes ago):
"People are trying to take credit for that chunky monkey's ban, who cares? The main point is that he is gone."
With that said, I think this thread is going /unfavourite. Too many wannabees around now. 80% of the posts are either "hey, how did they do this? plz tell me! i want to know" or "lol plz no reroll! plz plz!".
Hope the echonomy will be balanced out eventually - and that everything will go to normal again. Blesser signing out.

2 things...
1.) Remind me never to drop anything around you.
2.) A bank didnt blow up, people went out of their way to dup drops and circumvent the system.
Diablo???
It is theoretically possible that, Chunky Monkey, in his infinite audacity made his dubious methods more than obvious to Max Gladius alone... so it is also possible that more than one people have filed a report against him.

Back home a bunch of people were recently arrested and prosecuted for taking advantage of an ATM that spit out 20s where it should have spit out 5s.
Same sort of scenario here, except that there's absolutely no question that the dupers KNEW beyond a shadow of a doubt that what they were doing was wrong.
Passive Keke
All true but, still they are banning people for even duping 1 item by accident, and also i remember the first time they messed up and ectos went to 250g and everyone bought them this is why some people are still so rich and they didnt rollback, isnt that kinda the same?
Passive Keke
and it is still stupid to ban people when they payed money for the game for their mistake
Diablo???
considering the highly complex methods of duping, it is highly unlikely one "dupes" an armbrace of truth by accident.

Why are you so naive? Maybe you are doing it on purpose? You dont see the link between Herb & his mates (famous rare items collectors) & the armbrace trick ??? Come on you jokin Herb hasnt been playin GW for months, he said he prefered to stay in LA (no Los Angeles but Lion's Arch) chating through vent/ts with friends, showing each others items, surfing the net....to check prices maybe He is one of the best informed "bizeness player" in GW Come on folks open your eyes............ |

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE refrain from posting again. i've had a good laugh looking at all your idiotic posts. you don't know anything about this situation, sit down before you get sticked.
also, getting on herb is starting to be creepy. you know and care too much about him, leave him out of it. he's an old timer and of course is curious because he is one of the legit people with a lot of money
and i'll ask again STOP POSTING

2) Very, very few people got rich off that reset, as the traders were perma-sold out shortly after the reset occurred. Only the most fortunate that stumbled across it in the first hour or so made out like bandits.
Apparently ANet decided that these consequences were worth it given that superior monk runes were going for 70k and ectos were going for 30k.
This is not a comparable incident. You are misinformed.

Buying an Armbrace is good for the duper, but bad for you. You can choose sides. One pays off. Bad. |

But I have definately read about a court case where someone was found guilty for spending money which the bank accidenly put into their bank account.
If someone accidently leaves their house unlocked when they are out does not give everyone the right to steal from the house.
Anyway the EULA says you cant abuse exploits.

Sounds completely reasonable to me. Two reasons why this is very light punishment - 1) these shoplifters can simply re-disguise themselves and be a customer again (buy a new account) & 2) No legal action was taken, just a slap on the wrist and a "don't come back!"

If someone forgets to lock their house and you walk in and take their car-keys and steal their car, it's - ethically - the exact same thing as knowingly getting too much change back when buying groceries and keeping it. The only difference is that in one situation you're taking, in the other you're keeping.
Integrity, ethics, and morals are some of the things you will have to learn as you grow up.
Passive Keke
Firstly how do you think it was discovered that you could dupe items, clearly by accident. Secondly how can i be misinformed about the first market crash, i was their and got rich. Next your acting like this is on such a large scale to events such as the first market crash. A very small amount of people were affected by the first market crash and no one got banned but people got rich, and a very small amount are affected now.
evilkingsky
Follow the EULA and you won't get banned, enough said.
Passive Keke
Of course its mainly their fault wow, if you leave all your windows and doors open and go away for 2weeks and your house gets robbed, your asking for that right? so imo its 6 of 1 and half a dozen of the other and therefore unfair to bann people for this. This has nothing to do with morals and ethics etc because its a game and making people pay money for this game and banning them even though your slightly to blame is totally unfair.

1 person stealing a billion dollar inflicts just as much damages as 1 billion people stealing 1 dollar each.

A person could fake all of that, I suppose, but that seems pretty tough to get around. No?

Since Guild Wars went live, people have tried to find a way to dupe items. Someone found a way. It was not an accident this time.

Ofc we should all follow the EULA but i think Anet is to blame aswel and i think its unfair to ban

Ya know, we're all gonna get past this and say some time down the track "Hey, remember the duped armbrace incident of August 2007?"
FFW
Somehow I feel that anet tries to make other ppl suffer for there mistakes. Banning ppl because they fail at keeping this game running properly. They fail at so many fronts except at banning ppl for lame reasons.
Some armors got a bug, they dont fix it. Ha was full with bugs, they just remove the map. The whole game is bugged they ban ppl.
Anet just do your job and u dont have to ban so much. If u cant say certain words in local make sure they get filtered out.
If u dont want ppl to exploit certain bugs just make sure the game works properly. good luck with it.
