You aren't the only one who is losing things if a rollback occurs. You did it before, you can do it again (unless you were duping earlier..that you are on your own with). Zero Red Engines will be given. |
Now EVERYONE (some more than others) have to suffer and re-do something they already did (with obvious less enjoyment) because A-Net did not find a loophole in their system.
For a few who illegitimately play this game the whole population suffers? I don't know which version of reality this is okay but it isn't mine,

Clearly this is my fault. Started playing again for the first time in nearly 2 years after the GW2 BWE and was probably an hour away from dinging my 30 HOM points 
I did some real boring stuff this morning, so clearly I was inviting a roll back

Sorry for the noob question, but what is a rollback ?
Dayquil
Maybe to combat the duping...they are adding a free und kanaxai to EVERYONE'S inventory?

An Unidentified item was on the ground... Now I'll never know what it was. I don't care if it only would've sold for one gold.
It's the one that got away.

Aha just because I did not become a member of the guru community till off late, doesn't mean that I can't expect something out of this game after spending over $200 on Guild Wars over the last 7 years.

It's when the devs reset the game to a previous time. I recall one time a few years back where a run-of-the-mill update (skill patch or bug fix) caused all materials and runes to go to their rock bottom prices (ectos and shards were 250g).
The game was offline for a few hours and reverted.

Thank you. I thought they might revert everything back to zero.

"Rollback" refers to the marketing campaign run by Wal-Mart to showcase their everyday incredibly low prices. The "smiley face" is often associated with this campaign.
Or in Guild Wars terms it simply means they are going to revert the servers to an earlier point in time. Whether a few hours or a few days - we won't know unless it happens and unless ANet tells us.

ohh, if you lose those, you'll be done for o_O
anyway :P i did trade scrolls to rl friend.... i hope they wont go back too far if they reroll, as i wanna keep my storm bow o_O
i didnt do much, but i can understand the pain to lose normal stuff by rerolls....
well, i know a company who kept in a bug which made people pay for their chars if they were not playing as gold members (with fees) for 1 whole month (yes, lots of people had to pay extra with their fees to play again), so glad Anet does something, if its the duping
if its the duping, i hope they have a solution which wont be exploited
maybe offtopic, but in some pokemon games, you could copy your pokemon, which was funny and gamebreaking, lol..... at least didnt harm anyone else.... unless you wanted to have a normal battle with the people who did that
anyway, i'm sure Anet knows what they do

A rollback is when they reset the entire game to the state it was in at a previous time. So, if they rollback the game to 1:00AM, for example, everything that everyone did in-game after 1:00AM will be wiped. All trades, missions, quests, title progress, etc., gone. That being said, the 'rollback talk' is nothing more than mere speculation. I can only remember 1 rollback in the 7 years of GW, and that was because of a bug with merchant/trader NPC prices. I don't think they did a rollback when the whole ecto duping fiasco hit. They just banned a boatload of weasels when that happened.

i'm fine with all tht ... either I'm keeping my 5 ded pandas or i will get my ded kanaxai back thx to the rollback ... keep on smiling

If they roll back, I feel really sorry for those guys who were running A Time For Heroes for 20+ hours yesterday as the ZM.

It's a good thing all I do is stand around on a hill doing nothing, otherwise I might have a twinge of annoyance.
As always, I say wait and see what happens before the rumor mill runs rampant.

No no, clearly it's all MY fault as I have not logged in to the game in 2 days. I have other things to do (life) and whilst I follow more outdoorsy pursuits (gardening) the universe has seen fit to punish the rest of you for my lack of gaming. This makes much more sense!

Rollback will be hard to figure cuz when did the duping start? We found out about last night thanks to spuns most awesome thread ever. So they would at least have to go back to yesterday. I traded very little during that time, but did do some small trades. Oh well. I do have screens of folks who offered to sell me ded pandas. Going to add them to my alts and check for bans.
Dayquil
If it is a rollback, how long would that take to implement? Hour or so maybe?

im not a man of big words and many times before guildies and fellow forum posters have stated trouble of connecting to out Life called GW.
And yes there was indeed a major kick

Been busy n stuffs. When the game is up & running I'll pm you - if it's for me I'm assuming it's OGRES stuff as I was never a purveyor of Troll'ish things. I have a teenage son that rarely emerges from his cave & that is troll enough for my life.

Oh there you are. I think I had some troll crap for you or someone. Dunno if i still have it, but it's not duped I promise. Either way will be the rollback prices.

Does anyone remember; were servers taken down the last time duping was running rampant?
spun ducky
They didn't take servers down last time they just banned accounts that had the items not too far from origin. The last roll back was a trader bug years ago and ironically the first trader reset they didn't roll back. I would take a guess they don't know how to fix this exploit as to why the servers went down with no warning to try and contain the damage. It is a bit late though this has gone on for a few weeks.
