Deja vu???

Update - Sunday, December 30, 2007
* Fixed an exploit which allowed players to access outposts they had not previously unlocked.

Update - Thursday, December 20, 2007
* Fixed a bug that gave players premature access to an area they hadn't previously visited.

NOTE: This thread is just for fun about ArenaNet forced to say exactly the same with different words, not really for discussion about the exploit itself (too many threads about already I think)

My post is about showing two updates saying exactly the same using different words. Not discussion about "the glitch".

The very thread's existence tells that the glitch was not properly fixed in the previous update, thus they had to fix it again.

Oh! lol! everyone is free to try another different way to say the same thing; my english is not good enough for that.

They used this synonyms:

exploit = bug
allowed = gave
area = outpost
unlocked = visited
hadn't = had not (not actually synonyms, but whatever)

I had my friend show me the glitch

Very interesting. Now, I heard a rumor that they were reversing everything on gamer's accounts from a certain time. I'm angry about this rumor because I found 3 ectos (not that I used the glitch to get the ectos or anything) Is this true guys?

Now they just need to fix the Grenchy / present glitch that would make a
lot of mean spirited people unhappy.

You won't get banned from a glitch that doesn't affect PvP and doesn't affect the economy.

Yes, true, they are doing a server rollback to six months ago due to people being able to map to someplace they shouldn't. In reality they are doing this because they can now re-balance getting the prestige GWEN items due to the ability to solo farm destroyer cores (you know, Anet hating that whole solo farming thing anyway).

Do you *really* need to ask this question?

I think there's more to it than that.
I don't remember people getting banned for exploiting the customization bug in PvP. People were fighting in HoH and GvG with weapons that had 10 +20% modifiers on them.

We need more exploits like this tbh. Makes people go hype and actually play this game (and not use it as chat messenger )

Aye!
I was planning on making my necro/para/mesmer travel though c1 and Factions today with this - and they fixed it (I didn't care enough to travel yesterday ...)?!?!
I thought this was going to be another "We are working on fixing Aspenwood"-story - in which case I'd have like a year to travel around!

No disagreements there. It was an awesome bug, but I was only able to have 1 character ferried before I had to go and when they came back it was fixed.

Mr Rumor is hard at it. Why is there ALWAYS someone that makes crap like this up. Find the person that told you this and call them a "GOREDENGINEGO" etc, you get the point.

I have to agree. The devs try to get us off their servers with things like gates, so we won't run multiple characters imo. Only those with a rare boredom immunity gene can put up with it.

I never knew the exploit because I play solo, no guild for 8 months. I rarely exploit something in this game for that reason, and because no one post the exploit here until is too late

well so we have the 'dang it we really really mean we fixed it this time, we hope' update....welll hope its fixed for good, not that I ever used it (dont have a guild hall---my guilds been arguing about that for gee almost 2 years now! and we STILL havent picked one out yet, we should have been called procrastinators are us).
would have been ncie to get to levianthan pits with my ranger, but seeing as I dont know anyone who would have done this for me, I guess I will have to keep them baby turtle alive with my heroes and henchies......

glad its over with and now people can stop talking about rollbacks.

Odd that they rephrase it as "locked outposts", not ones they had not previously visited. Hmmm?

This one is about a different exploit.

Note the 'Locked Outpost'.

I think they were talking about what happened here. May be wrong though.
