Is it possible when you have a full inventory and then use a Coffer of Whispers to get a mini pet, could it be placed into your ''Unclaimed Items'' box, or maybe it will be available the next time you log in, instead of coming up with the message ''Your inventory is full''?

If that's the case, why are so many glitches appearing now in GW?
RTSFirebat
Very interesting... of course mini pets is nothing. If they could get weapons into Pre again however...

It's not a Photoshop, Eric (Emunator) is a guildie, he was on TS with us when he saw this, so I told him to post the screenshot here.
Ewa Kirch
This looks like the duplication exploit but goes post searing to collect item, then reconnects back in searing?
dark eliminator
its not Photoshop.
i saw Mini Mallyx in pre Searing too.

Maybe Mallyx has become available as a 2nd birthday present? If not anet will have a busy week ahead of them fixing these glitches....

I was trying to find the thread (perhaps deleted?), but there was something on "how to get Survivor and LDoA on the same char" or something like that. Basically, it was on using tomes in Pre to acquire a hard res skill and blah blah blah. Point is, it was pure speculation based on the ability to get tomes, or any item for that matter, to a pre character.
Someone had mentioned about a mod, not a texture mod, but something else, that allowed them to add a button that specifically allowed them to go to the guild hall. Of course, at that point you could trade any items back to pre just like the last bug/exploit back in the day.
Again, no idea what happened to the thread, perhaps the mentioning of this mod got it deleted, and if that was the case - oops for mentioning. But yeah, might be what's going on and it should be known just like dupes so that it can be squashed before it gets widespread. If it's real, that is.

Not saying this is the case too, but I wouldn't be surprised either way.

This was reported last week here.
There is a mod hack that players are using to edit their .exe files that is similiar to the innocent texture mods that have become so popular recently. This particular mod adds a "Goto Guild Hall" button to their interface so the Pre characters are able to go back and forth to their GHs freely. Thus bringing back tomes, expert salvage kits, minis, etc to Pre.
A lot this this has been overshadowed by the Armbrace fiasco, but hopefully the developers will have time to do something about it soon.

Ooops, sorry. It looks like Arcane and I posted about the same time. Here's some links to the full discussion.
Last week, Dread Pirate Fargus posted thread in Sardelac Sanitarium expressing concern regarding the Perma-Pre Kidnappers exploit. (Characters being dragged out of Pre against their will.) The texture mod quote in my last post came from that thread.
Here is the link to that thread
I started another thread on the subject in Riverside and linked back to the original because more people would see the thread in Riverside and thus it would more likely gain the attention of Gaile and the developers.
Here is that thread
All that talk about pre-searing got my mind to thinking again about the possibility of survivor and LDoA. Someone in the previous threads mentioned that they knew a person who kept his char in the Guild Hall during the previous ancient glitch and only recently brought him back to pre. When I started the Survivor/LDoA thread, I was unaware of the mod hack and thought it would be cool if someone could obtain both titles using a smuggled tome. (Smuggled using the original glitch and a year+ campout in the GH)

More PR bullshit no doubt.

I hope the modder community will take this to heart: hard to devise anything that can't be abused. Now you know how the WWII era nuclear physicists felt on 6&9.8.1945...

This is a clientside hack.
ALL clients who have guilds are able to visit their guildhalls.
This mod pulls up that specific button and lets the client "see it", whereas you normally cannot see it while in Pre.
RTSFirebat
Well what do you expect? They allowed people to mod the game, and it was only a matter of time till someone created a mod like this.
Who know what other mods may or may not already exist to exploit other functions of the game!
Sadly its another example of abuse, but there are people out there who will always take advantage of a situation.

This is just icing on the duping cake, why is everything breaking now? And why would people seek to break it?

This type of modding CANNOT be texmod. It's hacking the .dat file, which IS blatantly against the EULA. ie, do it and get permabanned.
Havre Fras
Well, the game sure has gone to hell over the past few days/weeks, huh?
People taking others out of pre, items being duped, random folks getting banned for somehow receiving a duped item whether knowing it or not, crap loads of lag (though its not always the games fault, I suppose) and this, which isn't so, um, serious. Ok well since they're using mods to do this then I guess it is serious then. :S
All this happening so close to EotN. A shame, really. I wonder what new bugs the expansion brings for us to discover, and for some, exploit.

good job for ruining presearing forever 
hope the lesson is taken. gotta encript gw.dat and make noone able even just to look at the textures.

Well instead of crying about it, lets fight fire with um...fire. There's his name in that pic right? Bomebard him with ingame pm then. Then mail that pic to support team, how hard is it for Anet to fine him now? Not very, then delete his account, his mom, his sister and his dog accounts as well.
Is he a one off? I dunno. If he's not alone then Anet can get his log up and see what this guy had been up to. Beat on the brat with baseball bat people.

Actually, it's very similiar to text modding.
Player A likes a green health bar instead of a red one. He text mods his bar to be green. No damaging exploit. A-net is okay with the mod.
Player B prefers a quicker access to the character select screen. He mods his interface to put the login/logout button on the screen instead of the menu. (Possible without a mod, thru the options menu or click and drag)
Player C visits his guild hall quite often. He thinks it would be nice if the "goto GH" button was on the screen rather than tucked away in the "G" box. He mods to create the button on screen.
Player C creates a Pre-Searing character. Notices the GH button still there. Oooohhhhh

Ok we got the character name. Ban them.

Actually, you cannot just 'create' a button like that. You can only change what things look like.
Coridan
the problem i see with this....is being able to map to towns you haven't unlocked...like say in GWEN...if you know the name of the last mission/outpost...can you not now create a button that will map you there? GWEN released on 12:01 AM 31 august...End game items for sale at 12:10 AM
Witchblade
i dont wanna see an implementation that checks yer running processes on yer cpu, just like the Warden from Blizzard.
RIP to modding in that case -.-'

you cant "make" an entity.
You cant edit text. You cant make bars that dont exist already. Just because you see it, and you draw a button there doesnt mean the actual button exists and is functional until the proper requirements are fulfilled.
Cybergasm
I don't see how this client-side "hack" is possible. When you go to Guild Hall, you still have to interface with the servers, validating your character and what-not. Has anything actually been confirmed?
