Haven't played or visited forums for 3 weeks (since the 24th of December)

I'm scrolling through the list of updates on the support page and I can see a few exploit/bug fixes there. Something about a "117" as well (from a guru thread).

So...anything important happen whilst I was away?
Thanks

Since you mentioned the 117, I'll elaborate:

There was a glitch that allowed people who hadn't completed any of the DoA quests to kill Mallyx with ease. It was possible through ferrying to a restricted Ebony Citadel outpost that would drop you off right where Mallyx was. Anet's reaction was to permaban 117 accounts for hacking and exploiting.

Besides the 117 banned for using an Exploit to get to the last part of DoA so they could fight Mallyx without completing the quest beforehand each time. No you didn't miss anything besides that.

Ever see a Christmas story? Remember how the main character's little brother had that long bawling cry?

That's pretty much what you missed.

For 100 pages. Aside from that, you missed nothing, although I heard some guy got Legendary Survivor and LDoA because he used some glitch to bring items back. Hahahahahha

She was just kidding. You can't really buy it from her, seeing as she already made 2 threads in High End (both were locked) showing it off... with people offering more than trade box can handle and she still hasn't sold (I think).

All the same, by then you will feel you wasted 100k buying something that doesn't do much. IMO anyways.(Yeha I put IMO there in black for the ones with "weak eyesights" in case they wanna flame on me, again )

they fixed the gh glitch, again, well sorta.
people were still able to take stuff to pre, so they fixed it (again?)
there was tons of lagg on the wintersday finale, thus they decided to give people the option of just talking to the festival hat maker to get the hat (that ended on the 8th).
yeah the mpb that only dropped on the last day (it seems) from the chest in one of the wintersday chests (with no hint of it being implemented anywhere else ingame as of this date).
and then the mallyx glitch...

seems to have about covered the last 2 weeks....
